Cyber risk tips for boards and executive teamsWynyard Group
Craig Richardson, CEO of crime fighting software company Wynyard Group shares his recommendations for boards and executives on addressing cyber risks for their organisations.
Role of The Board In IT Governance & Cyber Security-Steve HowseCGTI
This document discusses I.T. strategy, risk management, and governance. It begins with an introduction of Steve Howse, the president of Millington & Associates, and his background. The document then discusses what I.T. strategy and governance entail and why they are important. It introduces the "20 questions" framework as a tool to assess I.T. strategy, risk, and governance. The questions are categorized into strategic issues, internal control issues, and risk issues. The document dives deeper into examples of risks and what organizations can do to address risks such as dedicating board members to I.T. committees and ensuring business continuity plans are tested.
The document summarizes findings from ISACA's 2017 State of Cyber Security study regarding cyber security workforce trends and challenges. It reports that the cyber security skills gap persists, with many organizations receiving fewer than 5 applicants for open positions and the average time to fill positions being 3 months or more. Over half of organizations say practical hands-on experience is the most important candidate qualification, and only 70% require security certifications. The persistent skills shortage means about 1 in 5 organizations are unable to fill open cyber security roles.
The July 2017 Cybersecurity Risk LandscapeCraig McGill
John Hinchcliffe, one of the talented cybersecurity experts at PwC in Scotland, recently spoke at an ISACA event, talking about the current security risk landscape, highlighting some of the forgotten security risks, and challenging attendees to think about the true value of their data.
The State Of Information and Cyber Security in 2016Shannon G., MBA
Shannon Glass, Practice Director from AfidenceIT talks about the State of Information and Cyber Security in 2016. She covers the importance of creating a culture of security awareness within an organization, threats to look out for on the landscape, and why you should care about protecting your data assets.
The Security Director's Practical Guide to Cyber SecurityKevin Duffey
This document outlines an agenda for a cyber security director's workshop hosted by Cyber Rescue from November 30th to December 1st 2016. The workshop will cover what CEOs need from security directors to protect against cyber threats, how directors can identify vulnerabilities missed by IT, cyber insurance, responding to attacks, and leading recovery efforts. It introduces the facilitators, Barrie Millett and Kevin Duffey, and their experience in security, crisis response, and digital transformation risks. The typical roles and responsibilities of a security director are defined. The workshop aims to help directors support CEOs in leading through a cyber attack and managing relationships during response and recovery.
Internet threats- How to protect the Africa consumer Self
This document discusses cybersecurity challenges in West Africa and recommendations to address them. It finds that while technology is important, it alone cannot combat cyber threats given client-side vulnerabilities and cybercriminals exploiting the path of least resistance. It recommends taking a threat intelligence approach using internal and external sources as well as dark web monitoring. Big data analytics moving faster than criminals is also suggested. Establishing public-private partnerships for security-as-a-service and inter-operable legal frameworks with continuous education are presented as ways to better protect Africa consumers and organizations from internet threats.

Establishing public-private partnerships for security-as-a-service and inter-operable legal frameworks with continuous education are presented as ways to better protect Africa consumers and organizations from internet threats.
This document discusses security and privacy concerns in an increasingly connected world. It notes that the impact of cyber attacks could be as much as $3 trillion in lost productivity and growth. It also notes that the average cost of a data breach to a company is $3.5 million and that the median number of days attackers are present on a victim network before detection has increased 15% year-over-year to 243 days. The document then discusses Microsoft's efforts to build trust in the cloud through compliance certifications, attestations, and operating a cyber defense operations center. It also notes that Canada has a head start in some areas of security and privacy.
The document discusses how excellent IT security can deter cyber adversaries. It finds that excellent security can deter attacks for over 4 days past the point when attackers would normally change targets. This doubles the time attackers need to plan and execute a successful attack. The document also notes that sharing threat intelligence with peers is one of the most effective ways to prevent attacks, and can help thwart 39% of attacks. However, on average attackers only make one quarter of what IT security professionals earn each year, calling into question whether crime truly pays for cyber attackers.
Defending Critical Infrastructure Against Cyber AttacksTripwire
In our increasingly connected world, networks of machines help critical infrastructure run more efficiently and prevent downtime. However, systems which were once isolated are now being exposed to digital security threats that operators never considered.

Ethical Hacking vs Penetration Testing vs Cybersecurity: Know the Difference?PECB
This document provides an overview of ethical hacking vs penetration testing. It discusses how they are similar but also different, with ethical hacking focusing more on technology exploits and penetration testing covering a broader range of areas. It also covers cybersecurity concepts, the impact of COVID-19 on cyber attacks, how to get involved in the field through learning programs and certifications, and why cybersecurity jobs are in high demand.
Sai Huda is a globally recognized cybersecurity expert and author who warns that the top three cyber threats in 2021 are ransomware, cloud misconfigurations, and supply chain compromise. He advises businesses to be alert for new variants of ransomware that can quickly find and encrypt critical data. Cloud misconfigurations are also a major threat if businesses fail to properly configure security in the cloud. Further, supply chain compromises like the SolarWinds hack can allow attackers access through software updates.

Symantec Intelligence Report - October 2014Symantec
The number of spear phishing attacks per day continues to trend downward over the last twelve months, coming in at 45 per day in October. Of the attachments used in such email-based attacks, the .doc attachment type comprised 62.5 percent and .exe attachments made up 14.4 percent. Of the industries attacked, the category of Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate received 28 percent of all spear phishing attempts in the month of October, followed by Manufacturing at 17 percent.
The largest data breach that was disclosed in October took place back in July. This breach had previously been reported; however, we learned this month that the breach resulted in the exposure of identities within 76 million households, plus information on an additional seven million small businesses.
In the Mac threat landscape, OSX.Okaz was the most frequently encountered OSX risk seen on OSX endpoints, making up 28.8 percent of OSX risks. OSX.Okaz is an adware program that may modify browser homepage and search settings.
Finally, ransomware as a whole continues to decline as the year progresses. However, the amount of crypto-style ransomware seen continues to increase. This particularly aggressive form of ransomware made up 55 percent of all ransomware in the month of October.

Federal Webinar: Leverage IT Operations Monitoring and Log Data to Reduce Ins...SolarWinds
According to the fourth annual Federal Cybersecurity Survey from SolarWinds and Market Connections, insider threats are the leading source of threats to federal agencies. Human error is one of the most common insider threats, followed by abuse of privileges, and theft. The increased sophistication of threats, volume of attacks, and end-user policy violations make agencies more vulnerable than ever. In this webinar, we discussed how implementing the right tools, as well as continuously monitoring systems and networks, can provide the data to make informed decisions and help agencies safeguard against insider threats, and quickly identify and fix vulnerabilities.
During this webinar our presenters discussed:
The 2017 SolarWinds Federal Cybersecurity Survey, and the top sources of threats
How the right tools and technologies can provide IT infrastructure data to help safeguard against malicious and non-malicious internal threats, including:
Utilizing fault, performance, and log management data to help ensure that devices are continuously monitored and operating correctly
Leveraging configuration management to help prevent errors and reduce vulnerabilities
How the implementation of Security Incident and Event Management (SIEM) tools can better equip agencies to quickly detect and respond to security threats and help to reduce vulnerability, including:
Utilizing log data to detect malicious or out-of-policy actions, fine-tune firewall configurations, and monitor Active Directory® changes
How to track devices and users on your network and maintain historic data for forensics

Questions the Board should be asking themselves
• Do we know what our cyber risk profile is – who, what,
why, impact?
• Do we know what our critical digital assets (‘crown
jewels’) are?
• Have we done proper risk assessments on these? Is this
within our risk appetite?
• What are we doing about managing our security gaps –
mitigation (investment) and transfer (cyber insurance)?
• Are we able to respond to a cyber security incident? When
was the last time we have tested this?
