This is excellent article and I do feel if the organization gets struck in some ransomware demand then they must approach these labs but this cannot be a preventive control and still doesn’t guarantee of complete safety and organizations should invest in data backups

I agree somewhere to this article as most of the common people who are not much aware of the cyber security feels that the Anti-Virus is the only robust solution for security available and if they have antivirus on their PC they are safe from all type of attacks.This was a conception even faced by me when I used the PC for first time and the…[Read more]

Still it stands as a question to me how can they explain cyber-security to kindergarten kids.But if they are planning to do it then there must be some idea behind it.If the plan gets success then a lot of countries should try to replicate in their education system because the humans are the biggest vulnerability for attackers to target and it can…[Read more]

Its really a great article and even I had less knowledge on 3rd party vendors security procedures.I think 2 things can play an important role as per your suggestions-

There can be a cheaper solution .Most of the home PC users should probably keep some of their sensitive data backed in the cloud .Most of the cloud service providers provide some GB space as free of cost .In case the home PC is compromised users have their data backed up as most of the cases of ransomware you dont have 100% surety to get back the…[Read more]

As mentioned by you its difficult to prosecute and collect evidences in the case of international cyber crimes.
As of now there is still no strong international charter available which defines procedures,support for investigation in such cyber crimes. A russian backed treaty in UN was rejected in 2010 due to differences between developing and…[Read more] -

I really like the point of mentioning the proper protocols and policies are in place.The work of forensic expert will be easier if he can find the log files.Most of the auditor do recommend using log files but the organizations ignore them.Many organization have a retention policy but the data may not be available for the particular date when…[Read more]

Yeah you have used an excellent example to define this but I feel tracking IP address may not be enough to sue a person in court.There are cases when people hack into somebody network and use his network to hack and bring damage to other systems.The method do deals with tracking the user with IP address and then depositing his personal computer…[Read more]

I separated the word forensics with digital forensics as the forensics is something related to the evidence admissible in the court.So it can be also a fingerprint collected after a crime for investigating criminals so when we jump to digital forensics its collection of evidence in the digital world

I think the last DDOS attack which took place last month and bought down many websites across USA had made use of IOT devices as botnet to launch the attacks.This loophole can be a serious concern as the cameras can be made to work as bot net by hackers who can take control over it through the backdoor malware reported
