Closing the gaps in enterprise data security: A model for 360 degrees protectionFindWhitePapers
This paper examines the primary data threats that currently concern chief security officers (CSOs) and IT security management within enterprises, and recommends best-practice techniques to minimize and overcome risks to data security. These best practices have been successfully implemented and deployed in organizations worldwide as components of a holistic data security strategy.
The continued expansion of file-based, business-critical information within extended enterprises is changing the storage dynamic in a wide range of industries and organizations. In a series of interviews with U.S. and European enterprises, IDC found that companies are increasing their file-based storage by 40% to 120% a year and place a high priority on boosting the efficiency and reliability of their management processes for file-based information. IDC research indicates that unstructured, filebased data drove a majority of new storage capacity in all organizations' datacenters in 2008 and projects this growth to accelerate, in spite of current economic conditions. By 2012, over 75% of new storage capacity shipped will be dedicated to the storage, organization, and protection of files.

SYSTEM END-USER ACTIONS AS A THREAT TO INFORMATION SYSTEM SECURITYIJNSA Journal
As universities migrate online due to the advent of Covid-19, there is a need for enhanced security in information systems in the institution of higher learning. Many opted to invest in technological approaches to mitigate cybersecurity threats; however, the most common types of cybersecurity breaches happen due to the human factor, well known as end-user error or actions. Thus, this study aimed to identify and explore possible end-user errors in academia and the resulting vulnerabilities and threats that could affect the integrity of the university's information system. The study further presented state-of-the-art humanoriented security threats countermeasures to compliment universities' cybersecurity plans. Countermeasures include well-tailored ICT policies, incident response procedures, and education to protect themselves from security events (disruption, distortion, and exploitation). Adopted is a mixedmethod research approach with a qualitative research design to guide the study. An open-ended questionnaire and semi-structured interviews were used as data collection tools. Findings showed that system end-user errors remain the biggest security threat to information systems security in institutions of higher learning. Indeed errors make information systems vulnerable to certain cybersecurity attacks and, when exploited, put legitimate users, institutional network, and its computers at risk of contracting viruses, worms, Trojan, and expose it to spam, phishing, e-mail fraud, and other modern security attacks such as DDoS, session hijacking, replay attack and many more. Understanding that technology has failed to fully protect systems, specific recommendations are provided for the institution of higher education to consider improving employee actions and minimizing security incidents in their eLearning platforms, post Covid-19.

Staying ahead in the cyber security game - Sogeti + IBMRick Bouter
Cyber security is center stage in the world today, thanks to almost continuous revelations about incidents and breaches. In this context of unpredictability and insecurity, organizations are redefining their approach to security, trying to find the balance between risk, innovation and cost. At the same time, the field of cyber security is undergoing many dramatic changes, demanding organizations embrace new practices and skill sets.
Cyber security risk is now squarely a business risk – dropping the ball on security can threaten an organization’s future – yet many organizations continue to manage and understand cyber security in the context of the it department. This has to change.
Information Security Governance at Board and Executive LevelKoen Maris
Information security governance is a relative new area it doesn't always receive the required attention such as business support, management support and eventually the necessary budgets to keep Mr Evil out. The reasons why information security is not receiving the required attention are plenty, but a main issue that it is failing to get on the agenda could be that the upper levels of an organisational structure do not receive the information required to get their attention, or that companies are risk taking instead of risk averse or it seems impossible to identify value for the business. Security is about avoiding something, where a new application is about adding functionality in order to increase efficiency, production etc… Unfortunately, security is still seen as a business disabler.

NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS’ NEED TO ADDRESS SECURITY FOR EFFECTIVE GOVERNMENT C...IJNSA Journal
The need for information security within small to mid-size companies is increasing. The risks of information security breach, data loss, and disaster are growing. The impact of IT outages and issues on the company are unacceptable to any size business and their clients. There are many ways to address the security for IT departments. The need to address risks of attacks as well as disasters is important to the IT security policies and procedures. The IT departments of small to medium companies have to address these security concerns within their budgets and other limited resources.Security planning, design, and employee training that is needed requires input and agreement from all levels of the company and management. This paper will discuss security needs and methods to implement them into a corporate infrastructure.
INFORMATION SECURITY MANAGEMENT - Critique the employment of ethical hacking ...Hansa Edirisinghe
This report discuses the employment of ethical hacking through a disciplined, systematic analysis as a way of reviewing and strengthening the security of information systems. The preliminary objective of this study is therefore to understand the concept of Ethical Hacking. - By Hansa Edirisinghe
The possibilities provided by the internet in this day and times is almost limitless, fueled by
presence of global networks and larger operations being performed on a daily basis coupled with
people around the world who enjoy these benefits. However, the internet space is not used for
peaceful reasons as it should be assumed. The growing development in technologies and
substantive upgrade of programming systems has led to frequent cases of attacks by threat actors,
becoming a real problem for large companies.
Hence, therefore, one of the most famous cases in relation to hacking in the world was the
hacking of important information on the eBay database, an online shopping store. The case study
will focus on this attack.
3
Attacks on the enterprise are getting increasingly sophisticated. Current solutions available do not seem to be adequate given the innovativeness, precision and persistence of these attacks in different forms and of different dimensions. Organisations thus want to increase the sophistication of their employees and also of the solutions to be deployed given this backdrop.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...James Anderson
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).
