Cloud security incidents are skyrocketing. In fact, nearly half (45%) of all security incidents target cloud-based services. Another angle: 80% of business organizations experienced at least one cloud security breach incident last year. (Arguably the worst part here is that, when a system is breached, the average dwell time is 9 weeks.) Still, over 72% of businesses plan to continue investing in the cloud. So how do you make cloud computing a secure environment for sensitive business information?

The prediction is that $8 trillion will be lost to cyber crimes by the end of 2023, which is almost a third of the USA’s GDP in 2022 and twice as much as India’s predicted GDP in March 2023. The global loss to cybercrime is will grow more than 15% year by year to reach $10.5 trillion by 2025.

Managed detection and response (MDR) is justifiably one of the fastest-growing areas of cybersecurity, with Gartner estimating 50 percent of organizations will be using MDR services by 2025. But in choosing an MDR service, security pros should take into consideration what kind of expertise the provider can bring to bear – and how that expertise should extend beyond the MDR service itself.

It is crucial to assess vulnerabilities properly to achieve your cybersecurity goals through your vulnerability management program. A vulnerability assessment checklist can be a practical solution to ensure a consistent and thorough assessment process and minimize the risk of missing significant vulnerabilities.

“We are at a point where the stakes of defensive stagnation pose increasing risks in the face of threat actors’ innovation. This is why it’s so important to continually evolve in how we prevent, detect, and respond to cyberattacks.” This excerpt from my recent testimony to Congress underscores the greatest challenge facing public sector organizations today.

The Computer-Security Incident Notification Rule requires US federal banking organizations and banking service providers to notify the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) that a cybersecurity incident has occurred. The bank must ensure that the OCC receives this as soon as possible and no more than 36 hours after the incident has occurred.

NIST 800-161 — also identified as NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-161 — was published in April 2015 as Supply Chain Risk Management Practices for Federal Information Systems and Organizations. In May 2022, a year after President Biden’s Executive Order on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity, NIST produced a revised version, NIST 800-161 rev. 1 Cybersecurity Supply Chain Risk Management Practices for Systems and Organizations.
