Some 2.4 billion global Internet users—34 percent of
the world’s population—spend increasing amounts
of time online.1 As our online activity expands,
it isn’t just creating new ways to do business. It’s
revolutionizing business. However, like any mass
movement with significant ramifications, the
Internet-enabled life has risks as well as benefits.
Some are willing to accept those risks without much
consideration. Others want to take the time for a
more contemplative response, but events are moving
too quickly for long debate. What we really need is
a Call to Action that addresses the risks demanding
urgent attention.
To balance the benefits of the digital life,
management needs to understand and grapple
with four equally powerful forces:
Democratization – The way customers insist
on interacting via the channels they prefer,
rather than the channels the organization
imposes.
Consumerization – The impact of the many
devices and applications that span work and
play in our digital lives.
Externalization – The ways in which cloud
computing slashes capital expenditure and
shakes up how data moves in and out of
organizations.
Digitization – The exponential connectivity
created when sensors and devices form the
“Internet of Things.” These forces interact in ways
that make eradicating Cyber Risk impossible;
eliminating it in one area simply shifts it to the
others.
However, by following best practices, it is possible
to reduce your organization’s exposure to Cyber
Risk across the board. By addressing the real and
growing risks we face as individuals, businesses, and
governments, we can begin to create an optimal
environment of Cyber Resilience. This Manifesto sets
out a road map for that process.
Cybersecurity is a difficult and serious endeavor which over time strives to find a balance in managing the security of computing capabilities to protect the technology which connects and enriches the lives of everyone. Peering into the future of cybersecurity provides valuable insights around the challenges and opportunities. The industry is changing rapidly and attackers seem to always be one step ahead. Organizations must not only address what is ongoing, but also prepare for how cyber-threats will maneuver in the future. The 2016 Cybersecurity Predictions presentation showcases the cause-and-effect relationships and provides insights and perspectives of the forthcoming challenges the industry is likely to face and how we can be better prepared for it.
What trends will 2018 bring for Business Continuity Professionals?PECB
Many business continuity practitioners are perceiving a higher level of risk than ever before in their careers. Unfortunately, these risks are more often resulting in real incidents which require emergency response and continuity of operations. Being prepared may be the most important thing an organization can do in 2018. But what should we prepare for, and how should we prepare for it? This discussion will walk through some of the emerging threats concepts, tools, and techniques that business continuity professionals can expect to see more of in 2018.
Main points covered:
- What should we prepare for in 2018?

Although Sony seemed to dominate the cyber-security headlines of 2014, it was just one of many corporations infiltrated by an increasingly sophisticated and driven pool of hackers. J.P. Morgan Chase, Home Depot, and Target also top the list of businesses struggling with data breaches.
The most recent major cyberattack against Anthem Healthcare shook the insurance industry. In a rare show of honesty, the insurer began alerting customers and the media to the potential of a data break just eight days after it first noted suspicious activity on Jan. 27, 2015.
Immediately upon discovering it had been attacked, Anthem jumped to address the security vulnerability, contacted the FBI, and hired leading cyber-security firm Mandiant to evaluate its systems, said president and CEO Joseph Swedish in a statement.
Noting the importance of protecting financial institutions, New York's Department of Financial Services responded to the Anthem breach by announcing its intent to integrate regular assessments of cyber-security preparedness at insurance companies as part of its examination process. It will also enforce "enhanced regulations" on insurers based in New York.
"Recent cyber security breaches should serve as a stern wake up call for insurers and other financial institutions to strengthen their cyber defenses," said Benjamin M. Lawsky, New York State's superintendent of financial services, in a statement. He continued, "Regulators and private sector companies must both redouble their efforts and move aggressively to help safeguard this consumer data.“
Most people might expect that larger insurers, given the sensitive customer information they handle, would boast robust cyber-security programs. This is not necessarily true.
As part of its investigation, the Department found that 95% of insurers already think they have sufficient staff for information security, and just 14% of CEOs receive monthly briefings on data security. Anthem, the nation's second-largest health insurer, had not even encrypted its database containing nonmedical data. It claims that the HIPAA did not require it to do so.
While experts believe that Anthem was exclusively targeted in its attack, there is no doubt that all financial institutions are at risk. Here are eight things to know as the industry enters a year of increasingly heightened cyber-vulnerability.
The Security Director's Practical Guide to Cyber SecurityKevin Duffey
Presented at the annual UK Security Expo in London, to help traditional Security Directors understand and feel confident about the practical ways in which their role should extend to cyber security issues. This presentation was followed by a simple cyber attack simulation (not shown here).
Presented by Barrie Millett and Kevin Duffey of Cyber Rescue.
Key Findings from the 2015 IBM Cyber Security Intelligence IndexIBM Security
View on-demand presentation: http://securityintelligence.com/events/ibm-2015-cyber-security-intelligence-index/
The cyber threat landscape is increasing in complexity and frequency. Organizations that have historically not been the target of cyber attacks now make headline news with large data losses and compromised transactions. Organizations need a clear point of view on how to respond to these threats, and one that incorporates not only the relevant technology but also the organizational changes needed.
Nick Bradley, Practice Leader of the IBM Threat Research Group and the X-Force Threat Analysis Team, and Nick Coleman, Global Head Cyber Security Intelligence Services outline what organizations need to do now and in the future to stay ahead of the growing cyber security threat.
Preparing today for tomorrow’s threats.
When companies hear the word “security,” what concepts come to mind
— safety, protection or perhaps comfort? To the average IT administrator,
security conjures up images of locked-down networks and virus-free devices.
An attacker, state-sponsored agent or hactivist, meanwhile, may view security
as a way to demonstrate expertise by infiltrating and bringing down corporate
or government networks for profit, military goals, political gain — or even fun.
We live in a world in which cybercrime is on the rise. A quick scan of the
timeline of major incidents (See Figure 1, Page 9) shows the increasing
frequency and severity of security breaches — a pattern that is likely
to continue for years to come. Few if any organizations are safe from
cybercriminals, to say nothing of national security. In fact, experts even
exposed authentication and encryption vulnerabilities in the U.S. Federal
Aviation Administration’s new state-of-the-art multibillion-dollar air
traffic control system
Cybersecurity in the Cognitive Era: Priming Your Digital Immune SystemIBM Security
What could cybersecurity look like in the cognitive era? Organizations are facing a number of well-known security challenges and these challenges are leading to gaps in intelligence, speed, and accuracy when it comes to threats and incidents. The gaps can’t be addressed by simply scaling up legacy processes and infrastructure – new approaches are needed, and cognitive security solutions may help address these gaps. IBM conducted a survey of over 700 security professionals leaders and practitioners from 35 countries, representing 18 industries to get a sense for what challenges they are facing, how they are being addressed, and how they view cognitive security solutions as a potential powerful new tool.
Join us as Diana Kelley, Executive Security Advisor in IBM Security, and David Jarvis, Functional Research Lead for CIO and Cybersecurity in the IBM Institute for Business Value, discuss findings from the 2016 Cybersecurity Study “Cybersecurity in the Cognitive Era: Priming Your Digital Immune System” This webinar will cover an overview of the study findings, including:
Security challenges, shortcomings and what security leaders are doing about them
Views on cognitive security solutions – how they might help, readiness to implement and what might be holding them back
What those that are ready to implement cognitive enabled security today are thinking and doing
Michael Johnson of the University of Minnesota shares the risks of cyber security and the measure you should be taking to ensure your company's safety.
Improving Cyber Security Literacy in Boards & ExecutivesTripwire
In response to the rapidly evolving threat landscape, Boards of Directors (BoDs) and executives are now more aware of today’s cyber threats and how they might adversely affect their business. However, most executives are nonetheless limited in their knowledge of security and do not know what to ask their security teams.
It is therefore up to security professionals to help their executives become more cyber security literate and thereby assist in framing security considerations as an integral part of any risk/opportunity discussion, as well as a wider enterprise risk management strategy.
Acknowledging this responsibility on the part of information security personnel, Tripwire has asked a number of prominent experts in the field how security teams can improve their executives’ cyber security literacy.
Securing the C-Suite: Cybersecurity Perspectives from the BoardroomIBM Security
View on-demand: http://bit.ly/1OLCGgd
Cybersecurity incidents have significant impact beyond the IT organization, representing a significant risk to ongoing business continuity and reputation, and requiring heightened engagement across the entire executive team. Common wisdom is that security leaders need to speak in ways the business will understand, but what does that really mean? And how does the business side of an organization view security? To answer these questions, IBM conducted a survey of over 700 C-Suite executives - excluding the CISO - from 28 countries, across 18 industries - to understand any patterns, as well as any differing or aligning attitudes on cybersecurity. 60 percent of respondents are located in mature markets and 40 percent from emerging markets. Participants spanned traditional C-Suite roles, from CEOs and Board members to CFOs, Chief Risk Officers, CMOs, COOs, Human Resource executives, Chief Compliance Officers and Legal Counsel.
View this webinar to hear Diana Kelley, Executive Security Advisor in IBM Security, and Carl Nordman, Functional Research Lead for CFO and Cybersecurity in the IBM Institute for Business Value, discuss findings from the 2015 C-Suite Cybersecurity Study "Securing the C-Suite - Cybersecurity Perspectives from the Boardroom and C-Suite."
This webinar will cover an overview of the study findings, including:
C-Suite views of the risks and actors - Is the C-Suite view aligned with security reality?
IT and business alignment / collaboration- Who's engaged and who's not?
The tone from the top on external collaboration and sharing of incident information
Characteristics of more "Cyber-Secure" companies based on C-Suite responses to what their organization has accomplished
Presentation talking about the ever increasing threat of cyber crime and how social media, mobile devices, cloud computing make an interesting point of attack. Cyber security is only getting more and more important due to the widespread of new platforms, increasingly available and simple to use exploit kits as well as attacks becoming more sophisticated and having specific targets.
The National Cyber Security Strategy 2016 to 2021 sets out the government's p...at MicroFocus Italy ❖✔
The UK is one of the world’s leading
digital nations. Much of our prosperity
now depends on our ability to secure our
technology, data and networks from the
many threats we face.
Yet cyber attacks are growing more
frequent, sophisticated and damaging when
they succeed. So we are taking decisive
action to protect both our economy and the
privacy of UK citizens.
Our National Cyber Security Strategy sets out
our plan to make Britain confident, capable
and resilient in a fast-moving digital world.
Over the lifetime of this five-year strategy,
we will invest £1.9 billion in defending
our systems and infrastructure, deterring
our adversaries, and developing a wholesociety
capability – from the biggest
companies to the individual citizen.
From the most basic cyber hygiene, to the
most sophisticated deterrence, we need a
comprehensive response.
We will focus on raising the cost of
mounting an attack against anyone in the
UK, both through stronger defences and
better cyber skills. This is no longer just
an issue for the IT department but for the
whole workforce. Cyber skills need to reach
into every profession.
The new National Cyber Security Centre will
provide a hub of world-class, user-friendly
expertise for businesses and individuals, as
well as rapid response to major incidents.
Government has a clear leadership role,
but we will also foster a wider commercial
ecosystem, recognising where industry
can innovate faster than us. This includes
a drive to get the best young minds into
cyber security.
The cyber threat impacts the whole of our
society, so we want to make very clear
that everyone has a part to play in our
national response. It’s why this strategy is
an unprecedented exercise in transparency.
We can no longer afford to have this
discussion behind closed doors.
Ultimately, this is a threat that cannot be
completely eliminated. Digital technology
works because it is open, and that
openness brings with it risk. What we
can do is reduce the threat to a level that
ensures we remain at the vanguard of the
digital revolution. This strategy sets out how.

Presentation by Larry Clinton, President of the Internet Security Alliance (ISA) to the 66th Annual Fowler Seminar on Oct 12 2012 titled Evolution of the Cyber Threat - A Unified Systems Approach.
A1 - Cibersegurança - Raising the Bar for CybersecuritySpark Security
In the past few years, a new approach to cybersecurity has emerged, based on the analysis of data on successful attacks. In this approach, continuous diagnostics and mitigation replace the reactive network security methods used in the past. The approach combines continuous monitoring of network health with relatively straightforward mitigation strategies. The strategies used in this approach reduce the opportunities for attack and force attackers to develop more sophisticated (and expensive) techniques or to give up on the target. In combination, continuous monitoring and mitigation strategies provide the basis for better cybersecurity.

Cybersecurity in business
Introduction
Because of today's international economy, securing a company's intellectual property, financial information, and good name is critical for the company's long-term survival and growth. However, with the rise in risks and cyber vulnerability, most businesses find it difficult to keep up with the competition. Since their inception, most companies have reported 16% fraud, 37.7% financial losses, and an average of over 11% share value loss, according to data compiled by the US security. Most corporations and governments are working hard to keep their customers and residents safe from harm. There are both physical and cybersecurity risks involved with these threats. According to a recent study, many company owners aren't aware of the full scope of cybersecurity. People who own their businesses must deal with various issues daily.
Nevertheless, steps are being taken to address these issues. Customers and the company are likely to be protected by the measures adopted. Cybersecurity is one of the most pressing issues facing organizations today. Leaks of a company's intellectual property and other secrets may have devastating effects on its operations, as competitors and rivals will do all in their power to stop them. is an excellent illustration of this. This is perhaps the most talked-about security compromise of the year [footnoteRef:3]. The firm was severely damaged because of this. [1: "Database security attacks and control methods."] [2:q "Comprehending the IoT cyber threat landscape: A data dimensionality reduction technique to infer and characterize Internet-scale IoT probing campaigns."] [3: "The Equifax data breach: What cpas and firms need to know now." ]
Some individuals take advantage of clients by stealing highly important information to profit financially from their actions. For example, if the wrong individuals get their hands on your credit card information, you're in serious trouble since you might lose money. Some families lose all their resources, while others are forced to declare bankruptcy after being financially stable for a long period. Many of the findings of this study will be focused on cybersecurity and the sources of cybersecurity risks. The paper outlines a few of the issues and solutions that organizations may use to keep their operations and consumers safe from exploiting dishonest individuals.
Research question
According to the most recent study, more than 1500 companies have been exposed to some cybersecurity assault[footnoteRef:4]. This research details the specific types of attacks that have occurred. Organizational operations are affected, as is corporate governance, and the internal management of financial status is rendered ineffective due to these assaults. The question that will be investigated during the study is: [4: "Towards blockchain-based identity and access management for internet of things in enterprises."]

FIGURE 1-18 Cyberwar and Cyberterror (Study Figure)
Nightmare Threats
Potential for far greater attacks than those caused by criminal attackers
Cyberwar
Computer-based attacks by national governments
Espionage
Cyber-only attacks to damage financial and communication infrastructure
To augment conventional physical attacks
Attack IT infrastructure along with physical attacks (or in place of physical attacks)
Paralyze enemy command and control
Engage in propaganda attacks
Cyberterror
Attacks by terrorists or terrorist groups
May attack IT resources directly
Use the Internet for recruitment and coordination
Use the Internet to augment physical attacks
Disrupt communication among first responders
Use cyberattacks to increase terror in physical attacks
Turn to computer crime to fund their attacks
espionage.87 Cyber espionage from China has been a serious problem since 1999.88
The Chinese government has been involved in, or sponsored, attacks aimed at the State
Department, Commerce Department, Senators, Congressmen, and US military labs.89
Cyberwar attacks can be launched without engaging in physical hostilities and still do
tremendous damage. Countries can use cyberwar attacks to do massive damage to one
another’s financial infrastructures, to disrupt one another’s communication infrastructures,
and to damage the country’s IT infrastructure all as precursors to actual physical hostilities.
Cyberterror
Another nightmare scenario is cyberterror, in which the attacker is a terrorist or group of
terrorists.90 Of course, cyberterrorists can attack information technology resources directly.
They can damage a country’s financial, communication, and utilities infrastructure.91

Art Hathaway - Artificial Intelligence - Real Threat Preventioncentralohioissa
Throughout history we've seen opposing forces skillfully pit strengths against weaknesses until, ultimately, one side succumbs. Holding a position takes considerably more effort than does a single, offensive surge, and attackers are counting on it. The very nature of the cybersecurity attacks we face today are in direct response to the shortcomings of the available tools, knowledge and approaches. The only problem is that we must evolve our defenses as fast as (or faster) than their offenses, and the odds are greatly in their favor. Imagine a football game – with no time limits – determined by your opponent’s first undefended scoring play. Game over. Hmmm…I wonder how that one ends?
Facing next-generation challenges requires a next-generation approach – preferably one that requires no change to your current production environment, never tires, continually evolves, doesn't rely on humans and is 99%+ accurate regardless of Internet connectivity. We'll discuss a solution that shifts the balance in your favor by leveraging artificial intelligence to predict and prevent against malware-born threats so you don't have to.
Oil and Gas iQ’s Cyber Security for Oil and Gas event will bring together relevant stakeholders to discuss the most pressing cyber security issues facing the oil and gas sector. Presentations will examine threat trends, identify immediate and long-term needs, and reveal up-and-coming technologies for use in evolving threat environments. Security managers, IT strategy implementers, and industry partners will gather in Houston, TX to network, share best practices and explore potential paths to mitigate the threat of energy-focused attacks from cyber adversaries.

Information Security Issues Faced by Organizations In any organization, Information Security threats may be many like Software assaults, theft of intellectual belongings, identity robbery, theft of gadget or statistics, sabotage, and facts extortion. A risk can be something which could take gain of a vulnerability to breach security and negatively adjust, erase, damage object or gadgets of interest. Software attacks imply an attack by Viruses, Worms, Trojan Horses and so forth. Many customers consider that malware, virus, worms, bots are all the same matters. But they're now not identical, the simplest similarity is that they all are malicious software program that behaves differently. Apart from these threats, there are some headache information security threats they are: Cyberattack Threats: - Cyber-attacks are, of course, establishments’ pinnacle problem. There are many methods cybercriminals can target companies. Each will motive distinct types of harm and need to be defended in opposition to in one-of-a-kind methods. Some attacks, consisting of phishing campaigns, are typically designed to thieve private information. Others, such as ransomware and denial-of-carrier assaults, have several feasible pursuits, ranging from extorting cash to disrupting business operations for political reasons. Cyber threats, unfortunately, are getting an increasing number of risks in these days clever international. But what precisely is cyber risk? A cyber threat is an act or viable act which intends to scouse borrow records (non-public or in any other case), damage records or motive a few types of digital damage. Today, the time period is nearly exclusively used to explain records safety topics. Because it’s tough to visualize how digital signals touring throughout a cord can represent an assault, we’ve taken to visualizing the virtual phenomenon as a bodily one. A cyber-attack is an assault this is hooked up in opposition to a corporation (that means our digital gadgets) making use of cyberspace. Cyberspace, a digital space that doesn’t exist, has grown to be the metaphor to assist us to understand virtual weaponry that intends to harm us. What is actual, but, is the purpose of the attacker as well as the potential impact. While many cyberattacks are mere nuisances, a few are quite serious, even potentially threatening human lives. Malware: - Software that plays a malicious project on a goal tool or community, e.g. Corrupting facts or taking on a machine. Ransomware: - An attack that involves encrypting information on the goal system and traumatic a ransom in alternate for letting the consumer has got right of entry to the facts again. These assaults range from low-level nuisances to severe incidents just like the locking do.

2. We are in the Right Profession Today! An engineer dies and reports to the pearly gates. St. Peter checks his dossier and says, " Ah, you're an engineer -- you're in the wrong place." So, the engineer reports to the gates of hell and is let in. Pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied with the level of comfort in hell, and starts designing and building improvements. After awhile, they've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and the engineer is a pretty popular guy. One day, God calls Satan up on the telephone and says with a sneer, " So, how's it going down there in hell? " Satan replies, " Hey, things are going great. We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next." God replies, " What??? You've got an engineer? That's a mistake -- he should never have gotten down there; send him up here." Satan says, " No way. I like having an engineer on the staff, and I'm keeping him ." God says, " Send him back up here or I'll sue ."
3. We are in the Right Profession Today! Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah, right. And just where are YOU going to get a lawyer?"
