One of the most common ways that hackers target organizations is by exploiting vulnerabilities in outdated software. Outdated software risks can leave you open to a variety of hacks, including ransomware, malware, data breaches, and more. The fact is, failing to update your software doesn’t just mean you’re missing out on the latest version—it means you could expose your organization to major security vulnerabilities, like the widespread Apache Log4j2 vulnerability.

Earlier this summer, the internet was taken by storm by three critical vulnerabilities affecting MOVEit Transfer, a file-transferring software solution widely used by high-profile companies to store and share, in some cases, even the most sensitive business information.

In today's digital economy, every industry faces the challenge of doing more with less. Cybersecurity, a critical pillar of modern business operations, is no exception. Organizations are confronted with the need to secure their digital ecosystems while navigating budget constraints. As their supply chains expand, so do the risks—and the costs.

Every organization handles security differently, based on their needs and internal structure—but in some mid-sized and large companies, both the chief information officer (CIO) and the chief information security officer (CISO) are involved. This can set up a CIO vs. CISO standoff. Indeed, historically, the relationship between the CIO and CISO has been described as adversarial but ever-evolving.

It seems everyone is concerned about cybersecurity these days, and the investor community is no different. Shareholders are reading the headlines—ransomware attacks, data breaches, infrastructure disruptions—and they are wondering how these incidents could impact the companies that they invest in. Shareholders are about to get a lot more information from companies in the months ahead. In July 2023, the U.S.

In an era where digital innovation has become the lifeblood of businesses, cybersecurity has taken center stage in the corporate world. The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) recognized this need and introduced CPS 234, a regulation that puts cybersecurity at the forefront of APRA-regulated entities. APRA is currently conducting an independent tripartite cyber assessment of compliance with CPS234, which took effect in 2019.

Software supply chain attacks, or digital supply chain attacks, have become increasingly prevalent over the last couple of years. According to a study by KPMG, 73% of organizations have experienced at least one significant disruption from a third-party in the last three years. What’s the best way to protect against potential software supply chain attacks? To get the answer, let’s define what those attacks are, how they happen, and how you can defend against them.

Cyber threats pose a significant risk to organizations due to today's increasingly interconnected digital landscape. To address these challenges and ensure the security and resilience of critical infrastructure and digital services, the European Union introduced the Directive (UE) 2022/2555, commonly known as NIS 2 - which was actually approved on the same day as DORA, both being critical in how the EU is leveraging regulatory compliance and technology to reduce cyber risk.

The cloud can be cost-effective, scalable, flexible and – mostly – secure. So, it’s not surprising that 94 percent of enterprises use cloud services, 67 percent of enterprise infrastructure is cloud-based, and 92 percent of businesses have a multi-cloud strategy in place (source). But that doesn’t mean that breaches can’t happen.
