BYOD & Mobile Security: How to Respond to the Security Risks

•

1 like•754 views

Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) is a popular topic in 2013. Trying to understand the security risks and prepare strategies to either adopt, or decide against BYOD for security and data control reasons is the challenge. The 160,000 member Information Security Community on LinkedIn conducted the survey "BYOD & Mobile Security 2013" to shed some light on the drivers for BYOD, how companies will benefit from BYOD, and how they respond to the security risks associated with this trend. With 1,600 responses, some interesting insights and patterns into BYOD were uncovered.

With the proliferation of data expected to grow 50x in the next ten years, companies need to not just listen to what’s happening now, but use data to predict what’s going to happen next, and be able to take actions on what they learn. Moreover, the rise in multimedia content like photos and videos means that listening and analytics need to include those data sources as well in order to stay at the bleeding edge of the social web. Plus, the companies leveraging these technologies need people, process and purpose as well to ensure that social intelligence isn’t lost in a corner of the marketing department but is positioned to be a key source of business intelligence for the entire organization.

Today, everything has to be patched. From desktop and laptop to server and every operating system in between. With compliance, what we have to pay attention to is what’s actually out there on our network – not just what you wish were there. Servers (Windows, UNIX and Linux)Even Windows-centric environments have at least a few UNIX or Linux servers that need to be secure and patched. Linux and UNIX servers often fulfill critical functions with few and short maintenance windows. These can be a real pain point for admins who specialize in Windows or are managed by an entirely different admin. Desktops (Windows and Macs)Maybe you are responsible for desktops instead of servers. Again it’s not just a Windows story any more. More and more people are opting for Macs instead of Windows. Watch the vulnerability lists and you’ll see that Macs need patching too. The kicker though is the 80/20 rule. If at least 80% of the computers on your network are Windows and the remaining 20% are everything else – it’s a safe bet, given the maturity and ease of WSUS, that 20% of your patching effort goes to Windows but 80% of your effort is consumed with patching all the different flavors of UNIX, Linux and your Mac computers. We need one system to manage all our patches and one pane of glass to prove compliance from data center to desktop. Believe it or not System Center 2012 R2 provides the infrastructure to do just that – it just needs a little help. Last time we showed you how you can patch 3rd party apps on Windows through System Center Update Manager. This time we’ll show you how you can patch non-Windows systems using the new System Center clients for UNIX, Linux and Mac.

Last time it was Adobe’s code signing servers. This time it’s 2.9 million (let’s just call it 3) customers’ data and lots and lots of source code – including that of Acrobat. Adobe products already require constant patching but offer no enterprise level solution for patching. In this presentation by Ultimate Windows Security, we’ll present why this will likely lead to more and we’ll look at what we know about this latest Adobe breach. But more importantly I’ll show what you can do in advance to protect yourself against zero-day exploits in Adobe products and programs. After all this won’t be the last time a software vendor is hacked. In this day and age we have to protect ourselves from the failures of our software providers. I’ll present 3 ways you can go on the offensive to protect yourself from the constant vulnerabilities discovered in Adobe Reader, Acrobat, Flash and Oracle Java. Here’s what we’ll discuss: *Alternatives to Adobe and Java *Different ways to containing vulnerable apps in a sandbox * Using advanced memory protection technologies to detect and stop buffer overflows and other memory based attacks Patching and AV only helps you close the window on hacker opportunity. To prevent the window from opening in the first place you have to prevent untrusted code from ever running in the first place. That requires application whitelisting and memory protection against code injection – a growing menace that bypasses controls based on file system and EXE scanning. That’s why Lumension is sponsoring this event. I think you’ll be interested seeing 2 of their end-point security technologies that will help protect you from the new exploits on their way as a result of this hack as well as the constant stream of exploits discovered every day. This is going to be a really cool presentation with practical tips that you can apply. Learn how to protect your systems from other software vendor vulnerabilities.

The European Union’s proposed new data protection regulation aims to update Europe’s data protection laws and to provide a more consistent data protection framework across the Continent. But the new regulation, which replaces the EU’s existing data protection directive and member states’ data protection laws, will put some new demands on organisations holding personal data. Breach disclosure and “the right to be forgotten” will force businesses to update their data protection and retention policies. This presentation will: - Review the current EU laws, and contrast them with laws in other parts of the world; - Examine the arguments for strengthening data protection in Europe, and the likely outcomes; - Look at what security teams should already be doing to put themselves ahead of legislative changes; - Outline strategies and technologies organisations need to meet current and future data protection requirements - Help infosecurity teams to explain the changes – and their consequences – to their boards

Just over a decade ago, the outcry over Microsoft’s security problems reached such a deafening level that it finally got the attention of Bill Gates, who wrote the famous Trustworthy Computing memo. Today, many would say that Microsoft leads the industry in security and vulnerability handling. Now, it’s Java that’s causing the uproar. But has Oracle learned anything from Microsoft in handling these seemingly ceaseless problems? I’ll start by reviewing the wide-ranging Java security changes Oracle is promising to make. They sound so much like the improvements Microsoft made back with Trustworthy Computing that I’m amazed it hasn’t been done before! We’ll move on to discuss what you can do now to address Java security in your environment. One of the banes of security with Java is the presence of multiple versions of Java, often on the same computer. Sometimes you really need multiple versions of Java to support applications with version dependencies (crazy, I know). But other times, multiple copies of Java are there “just because.” In this webinar, we’ll talk about the current Java mess and how you can get out of it, including: Assessment. We’ll discuss ways and tools for cataloging what versions of Java are actually out there on your endpoints. Identification. We’ll look at methods for identifying which versions are actually required by your users; for instance, I’ll show you how you might use Process Tracking and File Access events in the Windows Security Log to see which Java files are being accessed, by whom, and by which programs. Disabling. Can you just disable Java? Maybe not for everyone, but what if you could disable it for certain roles within your company that make up 25% – or even 75% – of your workforce? That would be worth it. We’ll explore how you might go about such a measure. Hardening. We’ll dive into the technical details of hardening Java and reducing your Java attack surface, where possible. Filtering. Another way to reduce your Java risk is by filtering Java content at your gateway. Again not full coverage control – but what is? Patching. Then, we’ll delve into the Java patching nightmare. Depending on self-updaters on each endpoint, is could be a recipe for disaster, and I’ll explain why. Basically the only way out of the Java mess is a 3rd party solution that can perform centralized patch management and remediation and that’s where our sponsor, Lumension, will come in.

Generative AI architecture, at its core, revolves around the concept of machines being able to generate content autonomously, mimicking human-like creativity and decision-making processes. Unlike traditional AI systems that rely on predefined rules and data inputs, generative AI leverages deep learning techniques to produce new, original outputs based on patterns and examples it has learned from vast datasets. This capability opens up a multitude of possibilities across various domains within an enterprise.

The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
