This week, I spoke with a new client who told me all about how they are looking forward to addressing a number of internal issues surrounding their IT systems. They explained that over the last 12 months, they repeatedly had issues of delays in service and outages, which had affected their business. Discussing this further, I explored their relationship with the supplier and asked what due diligence they had performed prior to working with them.

AI is awesome! It can do so much for us, much faster and broader than we can do ourselves. All of AI’s benefits are great, assuming the data is trustworthy. Sure, algorithms can detect and remove outliers, but what if your corrupt data does not reside in the outliers? You can only trust the data when you establish trust at the source of the data. How often have we been conversing with a friend who is relaying information from their friend?

Why You Need a Credential Manager For Your Devices Before joining Device Authority, I gave my home IoT security exposure very little thought, and I continued to add to it. Now, I have a plethora of devices in my home including, Smart appliances, Wi-Fi lights and sockets, wireless security video, and Wi-Fi-enabled active home power monitoring, to name a few.

Cybersecurity is becoming more of a common term in today’s industry. It is being passed around executive meetings along with financial information and projected marketing strategies. Within the cybersecurity lexicon, there are some attack methods that are repeated enough to become part of a “common tongue”.

Containerization is a rapidly evolving technology in cloud-native applications. Just like computing systems, containers consist of packages of software programs with all the vital elements like binaries, files, and libraries for running an application in the environment from anywhere. Containers are lightweight, and DevOps teams develop applications and deploy services using them. Moreover, organizations also use these containers to deploy and scale the DevOps infrastructure like the CI/CD tools.

It’s difficult for even the most advanced security teams to stay on top of evolving incursions and ensure their processes effectively map to prevent them. That’s where pre-built templates come into the conversation. No-code, security automation templates can handle the considerable burden of having to maintain and update processes that integrate with a company’s security stack.

Discussing on the subject of KYC and AML compliance and how it helps keeps risk under control, here is how the new CBDC establishment is to benefit. CBDC’s primary purpose is to provide privacy, transferability, ease, and financial security to individuals and businesses. They also help reduce the expenses of maintaining a complicated financial system, reduce transaction costs, and provide cost-effective money transfer methods.

In Q2 2022, Kroll observed a 90% increase in the number of healthcare organizations targeted in comparison with Q1 2022, dropping the final nail in the coffin for the “truce” some criminal groups instituted earlier in the COVID pandemic. Ransomware helped to fuel this uptick against healthcare as attacks increased this quarter to once again become the top threat, followed closely by email compromise.

Application security assessments are more critical than ever before. Digital transformation is required to meet the expectations of customers in many industries, meaning that companies are looking for software products to help them modernize their operations and meet those demands. However, choosing a piece of software is an expression of trust: by bringing your software into their network, customers are looking to accomplish their goals without letting attackers in.

Everyone is jumping on the bandwagon of digital transformation. Fueled by various factors such as improving operational efficiency, improving new product quality, meeting changing customer expectations, etc., every enterprise now views digital transformation as a must to preserve their business.
