Jason,
You have mentioned a very important point. I don’t think we should be underestimating these perpetrators to be a small group. These days there are even school students involved in such activities. Even, the men involved in the Mirai botnet were 20 and 21 years of age. So, when Nixon mentions, “These are incredibly deep skills dev…[Read more]

You are right Mustafa. Although this Act is applicable only to the devices procured by the government agencies, may be in the long run manufacturers will adopt the same set of standards for the average customers as well.

Definitely, updating the OS would mitigate this issue. And, just as physical security is being given due consideration, so should we tighten the network security. Because, a lot of the ATM hackers have swung lately to network-based attacks. Attackers can hack into the bank’s main network easily through phishing mails directed at bank’s emp…[Read more]

I used Camtasia. It has a Camtasia Recorder and an Editor. I found the editor to be pretty useful since I could stitch multiple video recordings and also could add audio or other features later. It also comes with a bunch of features like adjusting frame speed and also supports several formats . However, it is not free!

CIS benchmarks are a great way for organizations to assess and improve the security of their networks. They are particularly strong because they have been founded by a group of other participating organizations and are based on defenses from actual attacks. I like how detailed and clear they are. Apart from the fact that they are public and free,…[Read more]

Yes, companies often forget that communication is the most important factor in risk management. Proactive communication from Newtek’s end would have at least allowed their stakeholders to adopt protective measures and reduce the impact on their business operations. Perhaps maintaining their image was more important than containing the risk that w…[Read more]

Yes, it is true that majority of the people are unaware of the consequences. Even in an enterprise, I believe around 80% of the employees are often ignorant of cyber security. Sometimes it is because of lack of appropriate training or even ineffective training. Whatever the reason be, with the number of cyber attacks on rise, i think it is time we…[Read more]

Here are my pros and cons of Google Cloud Platform:
Pros:
• It took much less time to build the machines and the time taken to reboot was also less compared to physical servers.
• You are billed only for what you use, and you get to see the usage reports which I felt was advantageous, especially if you need to estimate any future cos…[Read more] -
