Key Challenges Facing IT/OT: Hear From The ExpertsTripwire
When you think of Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT), which side are you on? You may not feel that you fall on any side of that technological skirmish, but when you stop to carefully consider the differences in these two disciplines, it is nearly impossible to avoid a tendentious leaning.
However, the time may be upon us when the conflicts of IT and OT will be put to rest for the broader purpose of making businesses more agile, efficient, resilient and ultimately, more profitable. We spoke with experts in the field who offered their insights about the challenges facing IT and OT convergence. Here’s what they shared!
BlackBerry Workspaces: Solutions for Energy & UtilitiesBlackBerry
Energy and utilities companies derive significant competitive advantage and operational effectiveness from their resources and processes. Using outdated technologies, such as paper forms and faxes, makes them prone to accidental sharing and data leakage. Also, if the integrity of critical information, such as operational safety procedures, is tampered with, the safety and well-being of employees and reputation of the company are at stake. Careful coordination and consistent communication of such information with select business partners or mobile workers are essential to sustaining productivity.
Learn how BlackBerry Workspaces enables Energy and Utilities companies to stay in control of all synced and shared files wherever they go, on any device, online and offline — even after they’re downloaded from the system.
BlackBerry Workspaces: Solutions for Technology & ManufacturingBlackBerry
Supporting outmoded technology for fragmented business processes can inevitably put any business at risk of becoming competitively irrelevant. This is especially true for enterprises in the fast-paced world of technology and manufacturing, where businesses are often globally dispersed and at risk of copycats in the black market. This is also an industry where the careful timing of product releases drives profitability. Staying on the leading-edge of technology adoption is critical to keeping up with the speedy execution and high expectations of the market.

Everyone knows that storing and accessing data and applications in the cloud and on mobile devices provides makes work much easier and productive by allowing employees to work everywhere they need to.
It allows for great business agility – applications are always up to date, new functionality and processes can be deployed and activated quickly and organizations can adjust things on the fly if they need to.
It also brings the convenience factor – all employees to work in the way that they need to, collaboration and sharing is made vastly easier with cloud applications and storage.
But it brings with it all the challenges of securing devices and applications that your don’t own, and whilst saying NO might be the right thing for security, end users will find a way around it. Right now, close to 30% of employees use their personal devices for work. And that number is on the rise, potentially turning BYOD into Bring Your Own Disaster.

An Overview of Information Systems Security Measures in Zimbabwean Small and ...researchinventy
This paper reports on the Information Systems (IS) securitymeasures implemented by small and medium size enterprises (SMEs) in Zimbabwe. A survey questionnaire was distributed to 32 randomly selected participants in order to investigate the security measures and practices in their respective organisations. The results indicated that over 50% of the respondents had installed firewalls, while more than 80% carried out regular software updates and none of the respondents had intrusion detection systems. The researchers recommended that SMEs work to enhance their knowledge on the different IS threats in order to enable the implementation of preventive measures.
Developing programs that are inherently immune to attack requires sound software engineering practices. This session looks at the overall software engineering lifecycle and the critical points at which software security is a specific consideration. From the requirements for third-party suppliers to in-house development, your process must offer a level of confidence that the software functions as intended and is free of vulnerabilities. The presentation shows how using threat models, code pattern analysis tooling, targeted reviews, and more enhances Java security.

Webinar: Endpoint Backup is not Enough - You Need an End-user Data StrategyStorage Switzerland
More data outside of the data center is staying on endpoints and in the cloud than ever before. That means the risks to that data are also at an all time high. Plus regulations encompassing end-user data are also increasing, challenging IT to manage data when they have less control than ever. IT needs more than an endpoint protection plan, it needs an end-user data strategy.
In this webinar, learn how to evolve from an endpoint data protection plan to a comprehensive end-user data strategy.

Protect your hybrid workforce across the attack chainDavid J Rosenthal
Security is one of the most important considerations for SMBs. In fact, 77% of SMBs in a recent survey consider security a top feature when purchasing new PCs.1
Last year alone, 67% of SMBs experienced a security breach that cost, on average, 3.3% of their revenue.1 That’s a big risk to both profitability and reputation, and it shows how critical strong security protections are for businesses.
The good news is that 69% of SMBs in a recent survey agreed that new Windows 10 Pro devices offered better security and data protection than older devices.1
Research shows that modern devices help business owners by preventing identity attacks, minimizing phishing, and reducing the risk of malware attacks. These are all common ways that bad actors steal business data, steal personal information, or hold our devices hostage in exchange for huge amounts of ransom money.
And with modern PCs, most security functions can happen in the cloud, without interrupting worker productivity.
The Cloud has become an everyday resource that helps enable our daily routines. Consider how things such
as electricity, water, natural gas, telephone service, and television are provided by companies that specialize
in delivering those services, and you can begin to wrap your mind around the parallels with cloud computing.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

“It was like an invisible and

Tim McCarthy, CEO, TR2 Inc.
Data protection enables a more mobile workforce
without compromising security
TR2 has 2-3 engineers working all around
the U.S. every day. Company and client
critical information is on their laptops and
smartphones. They need to secure that data
without creating inefficiencies for their
engineers.
DWP Information Architects brought in
MaaS360 mobile device management to
secure all laptops, tablets and smartphones,
no matter the operating system.
The result: TR2 could be sure that their
client data was absolutely secure while
their engineers weren’t required to do
anything different.

17. • Threats are complex
• Design for attacks at all
stages of their life cycle
• And enable quick and
accurate mitigation
Protect data at
multiple stages
in the attack
lifecycle
Solutions focused on
one stage may fail,
especially when new or
unknown techniques
are used. An effective
prevention strategy
includes technologies
that detect and prevent
across each stage,
easily block known
threat components,
and hone in on evasive
behavior to ultimately
stop attackers from
reaching their end goal.
Controlling access Protecting dataManaging mobile devices Backing up your files Ready for the unexpected
Though prevention is
preferable, mitigation
and remediation cycles
continue to be an
important part of each
organization’s
cybersecurity strategy,
and when there’s an
infection, every minute
counts.
Advanced persistent
threats (APTs) are
designed to be evasive
in order to bypass
security defenses. It’s
incredibly easy to
fragment a payload into
several packets, change
a malicious file hash, or
spoof an email header.

Meridian got unlimited storage in the cloud and
shared to all of their employees no matter where they
were
Meridian Consultants had an over
abundance of graphic data files that
bogged down their server but the users
needed immediate access.
DWP Information Architects created a cloud
file share and sync network that backed up
to the network-attached storage on-site
The result: They got immediate results
while knowing that their “server” wasn’t
going down on them and having all their
files backed up on-site.

24. Legal firm sails through
tornado with Windows
Server
IT at the Law Offices of Aaron I. Katsman couldn’t
keep up with the firm’s growth. Slow
performance and the need to frequently restart
servers significantly reduced productivity.
DWP Information Architects deployed Windows
Server 2012, using Hyper-V to create virtual
servers and desktop computers. They set up
automatic backup and failover capabilities to
guard against disaster.
The result: During tornado, employees
served customers from home – without
even realizing they were using the failover
system.
