An effective security control program should focus on people and processes and not just technology, says Ashwin Ram, cybersecurity evangelist with Check Point. Ram also shares his insights on data breach trends.
The average amount of time that online attackers camp out in a victim's network - or "dwell time" - has been declining, FireEye's Mandiant incident response group reports. But the surge in ransomware accounts for some attacks coming to light more quickly because those attackers announce their presence.
Using data classification helps you regain control over your unstructured data. By involving your users in data classification, they will automatically become more data-aware, with a greater understanding of your policies and the value of your organisation’s data.
This whitepaper will take you through the 5 steps...
The historic attack on SolarWinds opened the world’s eyes to supply chain attacks from compromised vendor email accounts.
Abnormal Security sees clear evidence that the same technique used in the SolarWinds attack — vendor email compromise (VEC) — is going mainstream. Learn more about these attacks and how they...
Email filtering often misses malicious sites because detection-based techniques find it difficult to continuously build defenses against the large number of phishing sites created daily.
Yet, while email phishing attacks are highly successful, they are also entirely avoidable. Email Isolation provides organizations...
When attackers have a 95% success rate, it's not a matter of if but when they are coming in the door. Why? The traditional product-centric security paradigm is contributing to the near record number of infrastructure compromises and data breaches. Today's distributed work environment requires modern cybersecurity that...
Today's threats are more sophisticated than ever and despite significant investment in prevention technologies many organizations continue to suffer damaging attacks. Join Dave Martin, Open Systems' Senior Director of Product Management- Threat Response as he share best practices model to minimize risk that combines...
Ransomware continues to pose a "significant" threat, and email remains one of the top attack vectors being used by both criminals and nation-states, Australia's Cyber Security Center warns in its latest "Cyber Threat Report," which urges organizations to improve their defenses.
The latest edition of the ISMG Security Report features a discusssion with Equifax CISO, Jamil Farshchi, on the lessons learned from the credit reporting firm's massive data breach three years ago. Also featured: Australians' driver's licenses leaked; privileged access management tips.
Timely incident response is more critical than ever, but a decentralized workforce may affect responsiveness. Scott King of Rapid7 discusses how to address the challenges.
Attack simulations continuously mimic real-world threats to highlight gaps in security systems, and unlike traditional ad hoc testing, they provide an ongoing view of dynamic security environments. Can the insights from attack simulations be used to close gaps and strengthen security programs? They can, if integrated...
According to the 2019 Cyberthreat Defense Report, nearly eight out of 10 organizations were victims of at least one successful cyberattack in 2018.
While corporate strategies around digital transformation are driving measurable business outcomes, they are - at the same time - creating new security risks through the...
With the volume of data breaches and cyberattacks continuing to rise, organizations are increasingly relying on breach and attack simulation tools to provide more consistent and automated validation of controls, says Cymulate's Tim Ager.
