In new research from HelpSystems interviewing chief security officers in financial institutions about the security challenges they face, more than a third (35%) of survey respondents cite insider threats as one with potential to cause the most damage in the next 12 months.
Spoofed websites are a common avenue for cyberattacks. To better understand the scope of this phenomenon, it’s important for security professionals and organizations to know just how widespread the problem is.
Starting on December 8, Apple will require all third-party developers to detail their app’s privacy information, according to an Apple post. Security experts note that this new update (iOS 14) puts additional focus on user privacy, and in particular gives users better visibility into their personal information that is shared with third parties.
Security alerts are imperative for effectively mitigating and preventing cyberattacks. But, a key challenge of modern threat protection solutions is the sheer number of alerts they generate – leading to “alert fatigue.”
To learn more about the dangers of alert fatigue, we talk to Mark Kedgley, CTO at New Net Technologies (NNT).
While the technical root causes are the same, the impact of an IoT botnet attack on consumer versus enterprise and industrial devices is vastly different. An attack on a consumer gadget could be limited to a privacy issue, whereas the effect of a successful breach on a commercial device can have a significant production or safety cost. That’s why it’s more critical than ever for IT and OT security professionals to understand and be prepared to defend against this growing threat.
State and federal governments are enacting emergency rules, health standards, and legislation to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Canada rolled out new border measures in October. Vermont officials now require residents and non-residents coming from outside the select states, or counties within select states, to quarantine for 14 days. In Illinois, the governor declared all counties a disaster area.
It’s a common occurrence during a public health emergency — but it makes planning travel a complex task.
IP intercom solutions have emerged as a “must have” security solution for new and established facilities to protect people, assets, and property. A key component of an IP intercom solution, however, is its ability to provide intelligible communications to allow your security team to see beyond video and to protect employees and visitors from seen and unseen threats. What are 12 questions that you should ask before selecting an IP intercom solution?
Cybersecurity breaches are an all-too-common and ever-evolving threat that every organization should be prepared for. But as digital ecosystems evolve to support new innovations and an increasing number of connected devices, so does the complexity of managing and securing critical network infrastructure. What can be done to prevent attacks and protect sensitive data and critical infrastructure? One of the first and most critical steps to improving security is to ensure network management operates independently from the production network.
With 2021 a few months away, what will the landscape of cybersecurity look like for enterprises? Here's a list of seven predictions that will affect enterprises and cybersecurity leaders.
The choices you make when a cyberattack happens are critical. They can either mitigate the damage or make it worse. Even those companies that have built robust defenses miss an important step: a comprehensive response plan that will guide them in the event of a breach. So, what steps can you take to ensure business resilience and continuity?
