hear statements such as; Oh we are in a safe neighborhood, there is no crime here, I’ve
got an alarm system or I’ve got cameras. These may all be valid statements but to us,
they are false senses of being protected and secured. Security is about being vigilant,
and constantly looking at improving and adding layers of defense.

This report summarizes issues with Rapid Data Services' current physical security and recommends improvements. Firstly, physical security needs to be increased through an alarm system connected to an outside agency, security personnel present at all times, and 24/7 surveillance cameras inside and outside. Fire and flood risks also need to be addressed. Secondly, intrusion measures like access control and video surveillance should be implemented to restrict unauthorized access. Lastly, the report considers moving operations to an established secure server housing company versus the costs of building their own high-security data storage facility.

Piggybacking refers to when an unauthorized person gains entry by following an authorized person, while tailgating implies the unauthorized person follows without consent. The document outlines various methods used for piggybacking, like surreptitiously following others or blending into large crowds. Tailgating is a security and compliance issue that can result in costs from theft, data breaches, and loss of productivity. The document recommends both physical security measures and social engineering or policy solutions to address tailgating risks.
Darktrace enterprise immune system whitepaper_digitalCMR WORLD TECH
- Darktrace takes a fresh approach to cyber defense using advanced machine learning and mathematics rather than traditional perimeter-based security.
- Traditional security models that try to distinguish insiders from outsiders no longer work in today's globally connected networks, as threats are already inside networks and boundaries are impossible to define.
- An "immune system" approach that monitors subtle internal changes and behaviors is needed to detect emerging threats, rather than defining "bad" and trying to keep threats out. This embraces probability and understands what is happening inside complex information systems.
The document discusses insider threats and how to mitigate them. It covers how insider threats can come from employees with malicious intent, but also from inadvertent actions like clicking a phishing link. Insider threats also include third party contractors who are given access to networks. The document provides recommendations for organizations to mitigate insider threats such as conducting background checks, monitoring unusual employee behavior, and escorting outsiders within the company's physical sites. It also discusses the ongoing threat of spam being used to distribute malware and how organizations need to protect their users from inadvertently enabling attacks through emails.

Why IT Systems Need to Conduct IT System Penetration Tests - Chris Gatford, N...IT Network marcus evans
The document summarizes an interview with Chris Gatford, Managing Director of HackLabs Pty Limited, about why penetration tests are important for organizations. Gatford advises that while companies perform vulnerability tests, CIOs must also conduct penetration tests to simulate an actual attack without risk. A penetration test exploits vulnerabilities to determine actual exposure, allowing CIOs to see what happens during an attack in a safe way and address issues. Gatford also notes that penetration tests require skilled practitioners to think like hackers to comprehensively compromise systems in a way automated tools cannot.

The document provides guidance on physical security measures for protecting buildings, equipment, and information. It recommends securing building access points, monitoring equipment placement, maintaining access logs, and identifying organization property. It also suggests preparing for threats like theft, natural disasters, or equipment malfunctions through measures such as equipment tracking, environmental controls, and backup power sources. The document stresses applying security protocols appropriately based on risk assessments.
This document discusses the need for a new approach to cybersecurity using machine learning and mathematics to deliver an "immune system for the enterprise." It argues the traditional approach of separating inside and outside has failed because threats are already inside complex networks and subtle human behaviors are difficult to detect. A new approach is needed to understand what is normal and identify subtle threats based on probabilities rather than rules. Insider threats are underestimated as employees and partners with access could intentionally or unintentionally help attackers. Ensuring data integrity beyond just preventing loss or theft is also key to protecting organizations.

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).

5 Entrance Security
Mistakes Public Buildings
Should Avoid
Global picked the brains of Tim Ward, a security ex-
pert who deals with finding security solutions for all
types of locations, from public buildings to high-risk
sites.
“Unlike office blocks and government facilities,
public access buildings are open to pretty much
anybody who has a valid reason to be there - often a
staggeringly large and diverse group of people!
“The architects and security managers of these
buildings have to think very carefully about how to
effectively manage the flow of people in and out of
their doors. Should they fail to do so, they risk putting
in place a solution that confuses or even excludes
some members of the public. Worse still, they could
unintentionally leave gaps in their security that invite
unwanted and dangerous interlopers onto the prem-
ises.”
Here are Tim’s top five entrance security mistakes
that all public access buildings should strive to avoid.
Effective entrance security for public access buildings isn’t as simple
as it sounds. Whether it’s a library or a museum, a transport hub or
a town hall, there’s a wide range of risk factors to think about from
theft, vandalism and civil unrest to terrorism.
6. 6
1. Rolling out the
entrance security
solution too quickly
Imagine you’re responsible for the security of a build-
ing like a library, where there’s a heavy flow of semi-
regular visitors on a daily basis. One day, those visi-
tors turn up to find that a complex and scary-looking
turnstile system has been installed overnight. It’s an
obstacle they weren’t expecting, and they’re not 100
per cent sure how they’re supposed to use it.
So, they do the sensible thing and ask your staff
for guidance. Unfortunately, the staff don’t know
either – they weren’t involved in setting up the new
system, have had little to no training and don’t fully
understand the problem the entrance system is
intended to solve.
How could you have prevented this state of af-
fairs? By adopting a phased delivery process, which
would have ensured that members of the public
were gradually made comfortable with the new
system and that members of staff were trained to
use it from day one. You could have installed parts of
the solution earlier but left them inactive, for exam-
ple, allowing visitors to get used to walking through
them.
2. Failing to apply
different levels of
security to different
parts of the building
Almost all so-called public access buildings will have
areas that aren’t intended for public access at all.
In some buildings, such as hospitals, they may even
outnumber the areas that are open to the public by
a significant margin. Think of back offices and meet-
ing rooms, supply closets and lost-property depart-
ments, for example.
These areas should have the same level of protec-
tion as their counterparts in office blocks and other
buildings that aren’t open to the public. This could
mean installing locks, card readers, alarms – whatev-
er is proportionate to the risk. In public access build-
ings, it’s never safe to assume everyone who comes
in through the front gates has good intentions.

4. Installing an overly
intimidating entrance
solution
As mentioned above, some entrance security solu-
tions aren’t exactly friendly in appearance. In fact,
some top-of-the-line turnstile and airlock systems
are downright intimidating in their size and com-
plexity, and it can take a while for people to feel
comfortable using them.
This isn’t necessarily a bad thing in some high-
security facilities, but it’s generally not desirable in
public access buildings. Not only will a scary-looking
solution slow down visitor flow, but it might also
imply a higher level of risk than is really present. This
can make members of the public feel uncomfortable
for the duration of their visit, not just while entering
the building, and therefore detracts from their expe-
rience as a whole.
3. Ignoring the balance
between speed and the
anticipated volume of
visitors
For reasons that should be self-explanatory, the
speed of an entrance security solution is an issue
that very much comes to the fore in public access
buildings. We’ve all seen how long the queues can
get in airports or outside of tourist attractions like
museums and galleries. If your system can only
manage four or five transactions per minute and
you’re looking at a peak flow of two dozen people
within that same timeframe, there’s going to be a
bottleneck.
Bear in mind that in public access buildings,
there’s a bigger chance you’ll encounter visitors who
need staff assistance to use, what is to them, an
unfamiliar entrance system. These hold-ups have to
be factored into your speed of entry too.
GLOBAL #3GLOBAL #3

5. Allowing members of
staff to ignore or bypass
security rules
Finally, it’s a mistake to think that entrance security
solutions for public access buildings are only in-
tended for members of the public and nobody else. If
you allow your employees or management to bypass
an automated or manual system freely and with no
valid reason, you’re only going to degrade your over-
all level of security and leave a crack in the door for
more severe infractions.
When you’re rolling out a new solution, explain to
your staff that they’re part of the security strategy,
too. They’re obliged to ensure the system is used cor-
rectly, to report any instances of suspicious activity
and to abide by the same rules as everybody else.

INTERLOCKING DOORS:
What to consider
Always open,
never exposed:
five steps to choosing
an interlocking door
10 GLOBAL #3
11. Whether you are protecting a building from a kleptomaniac or a Kalashnikov, the
answer could be an “airlock”entrance system that remains sealed at all times.
In its simplest form, an interlocking system is composed of
two doors electronically connected so one cannot open un-
til the other has closed. This gives security management a
window of several seconds or more to check that the person
between the doors has the right to enter or leave.
Global spoke to Thierry Guth, a security expert from France
who specialises in physical security for
buildings, about choosing the right door to match specific
needs.
“Interlocking doors represent the most secure system of
managing access,”he says. “But you need to balance keeping
out the wrong people with welcoming the right ones.”
According to Thierry, there are five important steps to
consider when choosing an interlocking system:
David Crouch
Customers or workers?
Or both?
1
Customers should never feel intimidated when entering
a bank or a luxury store, so for them, security must be
discreet.
“They should feel the entrance system is there for their
own safety, rather than the company’s,”Thierry says. “So
an interlocking door for public access is likely to be made
of glass and easy to use so people can pass through natu-
rally, intuitively and in comfort.”
For employees with access to information, money or
valuable goods, there needs to be tighter control. In this
case an interlocking door is likely to have rather smaller
dimensions and an access control system such as a key-
pad or a badge reader.
But the technology means you can also have the best
of both worlds, Thierry says.
“You can choose different modes of functionality: in
the morning you have high control with both doors in op-
eration, then once the employees are already inside, the
risk is more limited and you can switch to a single door.”
Airlocks can also be adapted for a high flow of people,
for sites such as a company head office or research facil-
ity with a lot of employees, he adds. Interlocking doors
can cope with up to eight people per minute.
What are the risks?
2 “I get a lot of enquiries about providing solutions against
Kalashnikov machine guns,”Thierry says. “We are in a
period where there is a heightened risk of terrorism.”
Interlocking doors come with different levels of certi-
fied security, such as protection against manual attack
with a sledgehammer or crowbar, but also firearms and
ballistics. An embassy or data centre, for example, might
require the highest level, but in other locations this
might be considered excessive.
It is essential to analyse the risks you face, Thierry says.
One needs to ask questions such as: how long will it be
before the police intervene? Do my doors and windows
have sufficient resistance? Are staff trained to react to
aggression? “If the police need 8-12 minutes to get there,
you need resistance for 15 minutes,”he says.
“You should use certified products in accordance with
explicit standards to guarantee a level of security that is
appropriate to the risks you face. If you don’t feel confi-
dent about doing so, it is better to ask a known security
company to help.”
And beware of products that use laboratory-tested
glass but which are fitted in a standard frame – the
frame itself should also have been tested and certified
according to EN (European) or UL (United States) stand-
ards.

Detection and control
3Interlocking doors can be adapted to control, detect and
communicate with the person inside. When there is a
risk of firearms, a metal detector increases the chances of
detection, for example, while an intercom allows a visitor
to speak to staff from within the airlock.
Biometric readers that recognise faces, eyes or finger-
prints add a further level of sophistication.
“Voice synthesisers offer an alternative to pushing
buttons or reading cards, helping to make a door system
pleasant to use,”Thierry adds. “Systems such as these are
automatic, but if the visitor sets off an alarm then control
switches to manual.”
Regulation of interlocking doors differs from country to
country, but in general they must:
•Allow access for disabled people, not just through being
wide enough for wheelchairs but also through equip-
ment such as handles or buttons being accessible for
someone sitting down;
•Respect climate change legislation by including thermal
insulation to ensure the building doesn’t waste energy;
•Enable people to evacuate the system, and the building,
in an emergency – motorised locks release automatically
if the power fails, or an emergency override handle me-
ans the door can be opened manually.
Now you are at the last step – choosing the model that
best fits your expectations for how the doors should look.
Glazed or opaque infill? Powder coated or anodised finish
for the frame? Swing doors or sliding?
“Interlocking doors come in standard models, but
there is also scope for them to be customised to integrate
harmoniously into any environment,”Thierry says.
But at the end of the day, the main aim of customisa-
tion is security.
“A particular bank was attacked several times by crimi-
nals. It installed an interlocking system – ever since then,
there have been no more attacks.”

What is an interlocking door?
This interlocking system is particularly effective at stopping prevent
piggybacking or tailgating.
An interlocking door works like a booth. Using identification, you enter the
first door which must close behind you before the second door opens and
allows you to pass through.
Piggybacking and tailgating are attempts to enter a restricted area
by following closely behind someone with the correct authorisation.
The subtle difference is consent: tailgating is following an authorised
person without their consent, whilst piggybacking refers to the same
practice, but the authorised person is in on the act.

and communicate with
the person inside

Why a new generation
of store gates is taking
off in Scandinavia
14 GLOBAL #3
15. 15
Automated speed gates have become a familiar sight at the
entrance to railway stations, sports venues and big office
blocks. Now they are poised to make the leap into retail.
The supermarket may be about to become the latest environment to benefit from Scan-
dinavian design acumen. A new generation of motion-sensitive barriers is “starting to
explode” on the Nordic retail market, according to Mikael Sundebäck, a security specialist
at Gunnebo. These stylish sliding speed gates are becoming more and more popular with
retailers who are looking for modern ways to make their stores more open, but at the
same time more secure.

The new generation of retail gates
GLOBAL#3
16. 16
A big advantage to store managers is that the new gen-
eration of gates is very secure. Head-high safety glass
prevents a shoplifter from leaving the store through the
entrance – they can’t be vaulted over or squeezed un-
derneath. And if someone tries to go back through them
the wrong way, an alarm sounds, so cashiers can be
situated far from the gates without sacrificing security.
At ICA Maxi, a supermarket in the Swedish town of
Borås, managers wanted to avoid additional investment
in surveillance cameras or guards, so they plumped for
automated speed gates.
”It was important for us to find a safe solution for
when the store’s entrance is unattended,” says Mikael
Carlsson, store manager. “The gates give our shop a
modern and welcoming feeling, while they prevent
shoplifters walking back out through an unguarded
entrance.”
Return on investment is rapid because shrinkage is
minimised, and the cost of servicing vulnerable me-
chanical gates is eliminated.
SAFER SMALLER
A selling point for small shops is that the technology
takes up less floor space than mechanical gates, freeing
it up for more retail display. ”They look better, are more
durable and secure than old-fashioned swing gates,”
Sundebäck says.
While a speed gate might be slightly wider, by elimi-
nating the need for a system of double gates, which
are common in retail, they don’t extend so far into the
store.
The gates are connected to the fire system, so they
open automatically if the alarm is triggered and they
also fall open if the power fails.

SMARTER
The aesthetic of the new technology is modern and
stylish, very different from the simplistic steel swing
gate commonly found in retail outlets. The colour and
finish are easily customised to suit different locations or
brands.
”It gives the shop a whole new perspective – as a visi-
tor you respect the shop a whole lot more,”Sundebäck
says.
An array of infra-red sensors either side of the gate
is sensitive to the customer’s speed of motion, and to
whether they are pushing a trolley or leading a child by
the hand. Decades of industry experience with high-vol-
ume gates for public transport means the new entrance
systems are robust and reliable.
Customers can be wary of gates when they are first
installed, but because they are familiar from other envi-
ronments, it only takes a few visits for them to feel com-
fortable, Sundebäck says. The sensors enable the gates to
be adjusted so there is minimal risk to children or elderly
people.
Despite the advantages over old-style mechanical
gates, the test of the new technology will be whether its
success in Scandinavia spreads elsewhere.
“It’s a change in mindset,”says Sundebäck. “You find
these speed gates everywhere else, but no one has yet
made the leap to retail.”

India is in the midst of the world’s largest national identification number project. Its goal is to issue
a 12-digit unique identity number, called Aadhaar, to every single resident. As of 1 January 2016,
the project has gathered the fingerprints, iris scans and photos of more than 950 million citizens
(75% of the population) – many of whom had no prior proof of their identity.
Your eyeprint will allow you to make payments
Eye-recognition technology has been used in airports and other high-risk sites for a long time.
Now the technology has come to your smart phones which can be unlocked with an “eyeball selfie”.
Your eyeprint can also be used to log you into apps and validate mobile payments.
Facial recognition is being used to select the ads you see
Face-scanning tech on advertising screens is already being used by retailers so that they can show
targeted content to customers. A face-detection camera at the top of the screen gathers data on the
age and gender of a person and combines that with information about the location and time of day
to determine what ads they see.
