The document is a research report from Ponemon Institute that explores the risks of unsecure file sharing. Some of the key findings include:
- Many organizations lack visibility and control over the file sharing applications and documents employees use and share. Employees frequently engage in risky behaviors like using personal file sharing apps or accidentally sharing sensitive documents.
- Audits show that most organizations have not assessed their file sharing practices for compliance with regulations. IT departments also have limited control over the technologies employees adopt.
- The report concludes that weak security controls, lack of policies and training, and uncontrolled employee behaviors are exposing organizations to significant risks of data loss and non-compliance through file sharing activities.

An Improved Method for Preventing Data Leakage in an OrganizationIJERA Editor
Data is one of the most important assets an organisation has since it denes each organisations unique- ness.It
includes data on members and prospects, their inter- ests and purchases, your events, speakers, your content,
social media, press, your staff, budget, strategic plan, and much more. As organizations open their doors to
employees, part- ners, customers and suppliers to provide deeper access to sensitive information, the risk
sassociated with business increase. Now, more than ever, within creasing threats of cyber terrorism, cor- porate
governance issues, fraud, and identity theft, the need for securing corporate information has become paramount.
Informa- tion theft is not just about external hackers and unauthorized external users stealing your data, it is also
about managing internal employees and even contractors who may be working within your organization for
short periods of time. Adding to the challenge of securing information is the increasing push for corporate
governance and adherence to legislative or regulatory requirements. Failure to comply and provide privacy,
audit and internal controls could result in penalties ranging from large nes to jail terms. Non-compliance can
result in not only potential implications for executives, but also possible threats to the viability of a corporation.
Insiders too represent a sign cant risk to data security. The task of detecting malicious insiders is very
challenging as the methods of deception become more and more sophisticated. There are various solutions
present to avoid data leakage. Data leakage detection, prevention (DLPM) and monitoring solutions became an
inherent component of the organizations security suite.DLP solutions monitors sensitive data when at rest, in
motion, or in use and enforce the organizational data protection policy.These solutions focus mainly on the data
and its sensitivity level, and on preventing it from reaching an unauthorized person. They ignore the fact that an
insider is gradually exposed to more and more sensitive data,to which she is authorized to access. Such data
may cause great damage to the organization when leaked or misused. Data can be leaked via emails, instant
messaging, le transfer etc. This research is focusing on email data leakage monitoring, detection and
prevention. It is proposed to be carried out in two phases: leakage detection through mining and prevention
through encryption of email content.

Government Data Breaches: An Inside Job? [Infographic]Chief Optimist
Nearly one in four government organizations will incur a large-scale data breach—the highest percentage of any industry. What’s more, the majority of breaches are coming from the inside. That’s right, from employees who improperly use, share and dispose of information, data and documents. It’s the citizens of your own network who are causing the most damage.
According to the HP sponsored1 2014 Executive Breach Preparedness Research Report, more than 70 percent of executives think that their organization only partially understands the information risks they’re exposed to as a result of a breach. To add to that, less than half of c-suite and board-level executives are kept informed about the breach response process.
This report also found that business leadership knows that their involvement in data breach incident response is important – but they don’t believe, generally, that they are actually accountable for data breaches. In fact, only 45% stated that they think they are accountable for data breaches in their organization.

The lack of good information governance has brought us to an inflection point:
decision makers must gain control of their information to enable innovation, profit
and growth; or continue down the current path of information anarchy and
potentially lose out to competitors who are better able to govern their information.
Evalueserve and McAfee conducted this study in 2011 to highlight how IT decision-makers view the challenges of risk and compliance management in a highly regulated and increasingly complex global business environment. The research investigates how organizations address both risk and compliance, which are so inextricably interrelated. Research was aimed to forward looking, revealing companies’ plans for refining and automating their programs in 2011 and beyond. Significant portions of IT budgets is being spent on risk and compliance management and the spending is only expected to grow in the future.
Elastica conducted an exhaustive analysis of over 100 million customer files in order to better understand how employees use (and occasionally abuse) file sharing apps. This data has been anonymized and aggregated and, for the first time ever, sheds some much-needed light on typical file sharing behaviors, the nature of the data being shared, including unmanaged “shadow data”, and the possible consequences of file sharing data breaches for organizations like yours.
This slideshare, “Shadow Data Exposed”, delves deeply into this research data to help you unlock the business potential of cloud sharing apps and uncover and manage the “Shadow Data” stored in them, while ensuring these apps are used safely and in compliance with your corporate policy. You will learn:
• Why traditional security technologies like DLP, firewalls, endpoint solutions and antivirus are ineffective in the brave new world of file sharing apps.
• How to spot 7 risks of managing file sharing apps, as revealed by Elastica’s big security data research.
• How to build an effective cloud app security architecture that provides visibility, control and remediation.
Protecting Corporate Information in the CloudSymantec
Keeping Your Data Safe: Protecting Corporate Information in the Cloud is an insights-driven thought leadership study conducted by WSJ. Custom Studios in collaboration with Symantec Corporation. The goal of this research is to better understand worldwide cloud adoption across leading organizations and the challenges associated with its use. This survey also explores attitudes toward security as well as the behaviors that can lead to potential data loss and security breaches.
An online survey was conducted from February to March 2015 among 360 global business and IT executives with 180 respondents from the United States, 60 from the United Kingdom, 60 from Germany and 60 from Japan. Of these, 15% are CEOs, presidents or owners; 14% are CIOs/CTOs/CSOs; 5% are other C-level executives; 13% are heads of business units or EVPs/VPs/directors; 23% are IT/security professionals; and 30% are managers or other business professionals (e.g., engineering, research and development, sales, legal and compliance, etc.).

We're moving into an era of big data, where more information is captured in ever-finer detail from
ever-more sources which means our decision-making is bound to improve. Doesn’t it? We interviewed 100 ITDMs from organisations with 1000 or more employees to find out.
The state of privacy and data security complianceFindWhitePapers
With new privacy and data security regulations increasing, organizations are asking questions. Do the new regulations help or hinder the ability to protect sensitive and confidential information? With these new regulations on the march, how can you remain competitive in the global marketplace? This report provides answers and examines how compliance efforts can impact a company's bottom line.
To better understand how organizations manage the planning and securing of their digital assets, McAfee, Inc. retained Evalueserve to conduct an independent assessment of how organizations manage their security policies and processes, and what threats are perceived to pose the greatest
risk to their business. This global study of Enterprise-class organizations highlights how IT decision makers view the challenges of securing information assets in a highly regulated and increasingly complex global business environment. It is also forward-looking, revealing companies’ IT security priorities around processes, practices and technology for 2012 and beyond.

The Business Value of VCE Vblock Systems: Leveraging Convergence to Drive Business Agility
In the past decade, information technology (IT) evolved from an enabler of back-office business processes to the very foundation of a modern business. In the increasingly digital and mobile world, the datacenter is often the first and most frequent point of contact with customers. The ability to innovate quickly lies at the heart of today’s changing business models. Businesses expect their IT investments to accelerate their pace of innovation, provide flexibility to meet new demands, and continually reduce the costs of operations.
Converged infrastructure is essential for many companies to ensure that their datacenter infrastructures can meet today’s challenges. The business rationale for deploying converged infrastructure goes far beyond traditional IT feeds and speeds. Customers using converged solutions like VCE’s Vblock Systems (Vblock) realize lower costs, greater levels of utilization, and reduced downtime. VCE customers in this study recognized business benefits such as improved organizational agility, faster application development, increased innovation, and improved employee productivity.
IDC interviewed 16 VCE Vblock Systems customers to understand and quantify the benefits delivered by their Vblock converged infrastructure deployments. Vblock Systems are built by VCE using compute, network, and storage technologies and virtualization software from Cisco, EMC, and VMware.
IDC found that by using Vblock Systems, these organizations recorded improved business outcomes and that these improvements are increasingly driving IT investment decisions.
All VCE customers interviewed for this study generated substantial business value by consolidating their IT infrastructures with Vblock. IDC calculates that these VCE customers will generate five-year discounted benefits worth an average of $384,202 per 100 users by using Vblock, which will result in an average return on investment (ROI) of 518% and a payback period of 7.5 months.
Yorktel Whitepaper: Save Money, Leverage Time Return on Engagement Using Coll...Melissa Luongo
By Ron Gaboury CEO
We have become a society where information is received multiple ways simultaneously. Media simultaneously has “talking heads,” visual data, social media and graphics at the bottom of the screen; accessible everywhere. Younger generations expect this constant video flow as the norm. Can this backfire? How do we use it to our advantage instead of giving in to ‘information overload’? It is time to develop a strategy to better engage people by effectively using collaboration and visual tools. Here we discuss how to shift the ever-common business meeting into a collaborative session that not only boosts productivity, but nurtures your “soft assets” and promotes a measurement far more important than ROI—your ROE (return on engagement).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

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!

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
