The digital economy and cybersecurity
As we enter the digital economy, companies will quickly realize that the differentiator in the digital economy is information and information being a valuable resource is subject to theft, hacking, phishing and a host of other issues which compromise a company’s ability to participate in the digital economy. Cybersecurity misfires compromise the trust of buyers and partners necessary to participate in the digital economy. It is up to every company to ensure that the information shared with them is protected to the best of their ability and proactively notify persons and organizations who entrust their information necessary to transact business (any personal identity information including but not limited to addresses, credit card information, social security numbers, account information, credit information, medical records, etc.) with any potential compromises which can yield harm to them by that information either being used maliciously or shared with others.
This purpose of this writing is to cover some of the core requirements for implementing cybersecurity, the accountabilities for cybersecurity risks and the information used to manage a viable cybersecurity program.

Cybersecurity is a key ingredient in the digital economy
The digital economy is very different. Information is the life blood of the digital economy, and cyber-security attacks are theft of information, sometimes with real financial implications. While too many companies have not revisited their cyber-security arsenal to meet the demands of the digital economy, the regulators have been busy to update the minimally acceptable levels of protection of individuals and their identity in the digital ecosphere. Many companies will be burned by the punitive damages levied by regulators and the reputational damage which impinges upon the ability to conduct digital commerce.
This writing will go through what it means to be cyber-safe in the digital economy and defines a framework that should be used by all organizations to identify the leakages in information either directly leaked by them or syphoned off through imposters misrepresenting the organization. From the regulatory and consumer vantage point, there is not difference, the organizations conducting digital commerce are required to perform the due diligence necessary to provide assurance to consumers that their digital interactions with organizations are secure and safe.
Many companies will appear in the tabloids with massive fines and punishment in the capital markets due to lapses in judgement when it comes to meeting their obligations for cyber-security. Unfortunately, it will take examples made of such companies before the actions necessary to protect the consumer willing to conduct digital commerce is taken seriously. Many of the organizations will not survive the anticipated disruptions.
Hybrid intrusion detection systems (hids) using fuzzy logic
Hybrid intrusion detection systems (HIDS) using fuzzy logic can help address the growing problem of cyber crimes on computer networks. As organizations, governments, and educational institutions increasingly rely on interconnected computer systems, the risk of intrusions, data theft, and sabotage has increased. Conventional intrusion detection systems can be deceived by intruders who combine different types of attacks. Applying computational intelligence techniques like fuzzy logic to intrusion detection can help systems better recognize complex or combined attack patterns, alert administrators to the nature and severity of threats, and take measures to prevent intrusions.
Emerging Threats to Digital Payments - Is Your Business Ready
The document discusses emerging threats to digital payments and outlines steps businesses can take to protect themselves. It notes that cyber attacks are a major security risk and new payment methods are fueling more attacks. The problems section details how criminals exploit new technologies, learning resources, and expanded access points. It asks questions around detecting and responding to attacks. The solutions section recommends training, vulnerability scanning, network segmentation, access control, monitoring, and intelligence sharing to help close security gaps against sophisticated attackers.

Databreach forecast
Cybercriminals will leverage various techniques in 2020 to steal consumers' personal and financial information, according to Experian's annual data breach industry forecast. These include using text messages ("smishing") disguised as fundraising initiatives to target online communities, hacking into unsecured public Wi-Fi networks using drones, and creating fake videos and audio ("deepfakes") to disrupt large enterprises and governments. Experian predicts identity theft will rise as cybercriminals exploit the growing use of mobile payments at venues like concerts and sporting events. Organizations must strengthen defenses against these evolving cyberthreats through employee training, security precautions, and rapid response planning.
ISTR Internet Security Threat Report 2019
The document summarizes cyber threat trends in 2018 according to a Symantec report. It saw a rise in formjacking attacks that steal payment card data, though cryptojacking activity declined along with cryptocurrency values. Ransomware infections decreased overall but rose for enterprises. Living off the land attacks using tools like PowerShell increased substantially. Targeted attacks grew more sophisticated with groups targeting operational systems and destructive malware.

Cyber Claims: GDPR and business email compromise drive greater frequencies
Business email compromise (BEC) has overtaken ransomware and data breach by hackers as the main driver of AIG EMEA cyber claims, according to the latest cyber claims statistics.
Nearly a quarter of reported incidents in 2018 were due to business email compromise (BEC), up significantly from 11% in 2017. Ransomware, data breach by hackers and data breach due to employee negligence were the other main breach types in 2018.

Cyber Defense for SMBs offers guidance to help small and medium-sized businesses identify the most cost-effective best practices to help improve their business’s cybersecurity posture. Published by the Florida Center For Cybersecurity and written by cybersecurity experts from academia, private industry, government and the military.
Ransomware-as-a-Service: The business of distributing cyber attacks
Ransomware is proving to be a profitable endeavor for cyber criminals. It is also what is fueling a newer trend: the business of offering management of ransomware attacks, or Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS).
Fueled in part by the ability to use cryptocurrency to avoid detection, cyber criminals are setting up shop as a managed service provider, helping other cyber criminals conduct business on their platforms for a fee. For that fee, cyber criminal groups get personalize access to platforms, complete with dashboard capabilities, that allow them to easily distribute their ransomware. Also included – technical support. Such full-service offerings mean that nearly anyone with internet access can launch a ransomware attack without any technical knowledge needed.
And why not? The estimated return on investment from ransomware campaigns can easily reach 1400%. The lure of a lucrative return could well attract beginners or anyone with a grudge. For organizations, the threat coming from a well-backed beginner is as damaging as one coming from a career criminal.
Online payment gateway service providers testware informatics
UPI transactions in India have grown rapidly to over 1 billion per month, demonstrating growing digital payments. However, this growth also brings increased risk of cybercrime and online fraud. Truecaller data of 500 million users and the WhatsApp spyware attack highlight risks to personal data as digital payments rise. Online payment fraud in India doubled in 2019 according to one report. Experts say payment companies and merchants must strengthen security measures to prevent data breaches and reduce fraud risks as digital adoption increases. "Vishing" scams that manipulate victims into sharing banking details are also increasingly common according to reports of hundreds of UPI fraud cases. Detecting such social engineering frauds technologically is difficult given their human element.

This document discusses network security issues for mobile network operators (MNOs) in Africa. It notes that as smartphone adoption increases across Africa, network security remains a high priority for MNOs due to threats like cybercrime and fraud. Common security issues include SIMbox fraud, which involves using boxes of SIM cards to make illegal international calls. The rapid growth of mobile services in Africa has outpaced the development of robust security systems, making networks and customers vulnerable. MNOs are fighting back against fraud through measures like seizing SIMboxes and tightening SIM security, but will need more integrated security approaches to address evolving threats from domestic and international criminals.
Cyber-Law and Cyber-Crime
This document discusses cyber law and its impact on cyber crime. It notes that while cyber crimes are increasing globally and costing businesses trillions, the laws governing cyber space have not kept pace with the growth of the internet. There is still a huge challenge to develop comprehensive international regulations and laws to address coordinated cyber attacks across borders. It argues that some structure around jurisdiction, privacy, commerce and other issues is needed to help curb cyber crime, but that regulating the internet is complex given its global, boundary-less nature. Enhanced international cooperation around cyber law enforcement is important for addressing cyber threats.

Online Fraud: How to Avoid Internet Scams in the Workplace
This section outlines how the researcher envisions presenting the report. The outline
demonstrates the different sections in which the report will be broken into and the
information that will be contained in each section
Introduction
Definition
Online fraud refers to deceitful schemes that are done using the internet. Online fraud may
come in the form of financial theft, identity theft or a combination of both.
History of Online Fraud
An influx of online fraud began to be experienced in the 1990s with the increased technology
use and e-commerce. In the beginning, online fraud was done by using the names of famous
celebrities of the time to commit internet crimes. Over time, more technical and sophisticated
plans were developed such as creating card-generator applications with real credit card
numbers, setting up dummy merchant websites and mass identity theft. Today, despite
attempts by various governments to regulate and mitigate online fraud, more sophisticated
online fraud schemes have been established ranging from credit card fraud to phishing,
hacking, and identity theft (Saeger & Probert, 2015).
In the recent past, computer fraud has evolved through a series of advancements outplaying
the traditional security defenses such as the two-factor authentication, antivirus, and SSL
encryption in the process. Zeus and SpyEye are the most common attack tools used by
hackers since they support the gathering of vast volumes of extremely sensitive
authentication data. It has been established that no single application is immune to attacks
and the malicious attackers are focusing more on online banking accounts because they offer

most direct payoff. Online fraud is based on three core technologies: the botnet controllers
capable of handling hundreds of thousands of bots, highly effective data collection, and
sophisticated Trojans that are updateable.
Form grabbing for PCs running IE/Windows has been a simplified approach for fraud. The
technique helps attackers to extract data within browsers. The deployment of form grabbing
on compromised PCs allowed hackers to obtain numerous numbers of online bank account
IDs and passwords. The password-based authentication was termed no longer safe for online
banking prompting the introduction of two-factor authentication (Mellinger, 2011).
Nevertheless, criminals still found the loophole that helps them to challenge the security of
two-factor authentication through web injects. Malicious attackers that promote online fraud
have created various techniques.
Cyber Risk for Construction Industry
This presentation covers the current and future exposures that construction-related firms face related to cyber incidents. In addition, it covers how insurance carriers view underwriting cyber risks in the current market. Finally, the presentation provides an overview on how firms can prevent and repsond to cyber incidents.
Updated Cyber Security and Fraud Prevention Tools Tactics
Nine people have been sentenced for their involvement in a $2.6 million income tax refund fraud scheme. The scheme involved using stolen identities to file fraudulent tax returns and collect refunds. Over 700,000 IRS files were breached, putting many people at risk of identity theft. Cybersecurity experts warn that cyberattacks now affect nearly every company, but many are not taking a proactive approach to prevention. Internal access controls are also challenging due to the rise of mobile devices and remote access.

plans were developed such as creating card-generator applications with real credit card
numbers, setting up dummy merchant websites and mass identity theft. Today, despite
attempts by various governments to regulate and mitigate online fraud, more sophisticated
online fraud schemes have been established ranging from credit card fraud to phishing,
hacking, and identity theft (Saeger & Probert, 2015).
In the recent past, computer fraud has evolved through a series of advancements outplaying
the traditional security defenses such as the two-factor authentication, antivirus, and SSL
encryption in the process. Zeus and SpyEye are the most common attack tools used by
hackers since they support the gathering of vast volumes of extremely sensitive
authentication data. It has been established that no single application is immune to attacks
and the malicious attackers are focusing more on online banking accounts because they offer

most direct payoff. Online fraud is based on three core technologies: the botnet controllers
capable of handling hundreds of thousands of bots, highly effective data collection, and
sophisticated Trojans that are updateable.
Form grabbing for PCs running IE/Windows has been a simplified approach for fraud. The
technique helps attackers to extract data within browsers. The deployment of form grabbing
on compromised PCs allowed hackers to obtain numerous numbers of online bank account
IDs and passwords. The password-based authentication was termed no longer safe for online
banking prompting the introduction of two-factor authentication (Mellinger, 2011).
Nevertheless, criminals still found the loophole that helps them to challenge the security of
two-factor authentication through web injects. Malicious attackers that promote online fraud
have created various techniques.

Nine people have been sentenced for their involvement in a $2.6 million income tax refund fraud scheme. The scheme involved using stolen identities to file fraudulent tax returns and collect refunds. Over 700,000 IRS files were breached, putting many people at risk of identity theft. Cybersecurity experts warn that cyberattacks now affect nearly every company, but many are not taking a proactive approach to prevention. Internal access controls are also challenging due to the rise of mobile devices and remote access.

Why is cyber security a disruption in the digital economy
As we enter the digital economy, companies will quickly realize that the differentiator in the digital economy is information and information being a valuable resource is subject to theft, hacking, phishing and a host of other issues which compromise a company’s ability to participate in the digital economy. Cybersecurity misfires compromise the trust of buyers and partners necessary to participate in the digital economy. It is up to every company to ensure that the information shared with them is protected to the best of their ability and proactively notify persons and organizations who entrust their information necessary to transact business (any personal identity information including but not limited to addresses, credit card information, social security numbers, account information, credit information, medical records, etc.) with any potential compromises which can yield harm to them by that information either being used maliciously or shared with others.
The digital economy is different than other versions of commerce because in the digital economy, information is the lifeblood of digital commerce that passes through the hands of many platforms involved in a digital event. Each of these platforms are an opportunity to wreak havoc on your well-intended but incomplete intents to protect the information contained within the network you control. In the digital economy, it is not only the network you control, but the platforms that touch the personal data entrusted to you as a means of enabling digital commerce, and several techniques have begun to emerge to protect personal information contained within your information domain and the domain of platforms participating in digital commerce.
Because the life blood of the digital economy is information, information hacked in the digital economy is akin to shrinkage in the legacy economy. Both are means to directly attack your bottom line, whether it is redirecting customers elsewhere because they don’t trust your privacy program, ransomware which makes your site or one of your partner platform sites dangerous to use or some other reason which challenges your ability to participate in the digital economy. Shrinking the potential market share because of information safety and security challenges is a disruption, making cyber-security a disruptive activity, particularly if it is not dealt with swiftly.
If your cyber-security program is focused entirely on protecting the information housed in your four walls, you have exposed yourself to problems you will have difficulty in identifying both the source and the entry point of these issues.

Cybercrime poses a significant and growing threat to the mortgage industry and other businesses. Criminals are targeting consumer financial information through cyber attacks on companies, and the scale of cybercrime now exceeds the illegal drug trade with estimated annual profits of $100 billion. While many businesses have been slow to adopt security standards, the mortgage industry and LOS providers in particular must take steps to protect borrower data, such as obtaining cyber liability insurance and undergoing independent security audits. As technology continues to evolve, cybercriminals will as well, requiring ongoing vigilance to safeguard against new threats.

- 1. SECURITY THREATS IN REALESTATE The FBI periodically provides reports on cyberattacks in the U.S., to bring awareness to this threat. In 2017, they warned of a large spike in cyberattacks specifically targeting real estate companies. Without a federal law requiring real estate businesses to implement information security programs to protect information and systems, each business becomes responsible for setting policy and finding their own cyber security solution. Left to their own actions, many businesses are not aware of the critical need to protect against cyber threats and are open to breaches. For real estate businesses, this has led to a focus for hackers for potential attacks on the vulnerable systems. Here are some of the more common threats in the real estate industry: Banking Trojans: Malware that gets in between the user and an online banking session. Once they have the user's credentials they can potentially steal the total amount of the transaction. Spyware: Hackers will send an email with an attachment or link and as soon as the user clicks on it the criminal gains access to the user’s machine. They can: • spy on their victims and get their banking information • wipe out victims’ accounts • steal personal information (credit card numbers , driver license number, W2’s) • steal employee information (client data, and employee Social Security numbers) • infect the computer with additional malware or ransomware Ransomware: This malware makes data on your device or network unavailable until you pay a ransom. Concerned victims often pay making the ploy very profitable for hackers. One breach on your team can jeopardize all of your data not just for computers, but also any device that is connected to the internet including smart locks, smart thermostats and even smart lights. 53% 720M 69% of companies with less than 500 employees have experienced a breach in the last year. Global digital hack attempts every 24 hours of respondents are concerned about a cyberattack hitting their business in 2019, a significant increase compared to 46% last year. – Source: Seyfarth Shaw 2019 Real Estate Market Sentiment Survey 50% of Real Estate businesses in 2017 are not prepared to handle a cyberattack. – Source: KPMG, Real Estate Industry Outlook Survey

In the real estate industry, the criminal often uses the DocuSign logo fraudulently with spoof email addresses and fake messages to get unwitting users to click on what seems to be a legitimate transaction. Last year’s figures show that “May 2018 reported the highest number of BEC real estate victims since 2015.” –Source: FBI Consumer credential phishing: Hackers use common home buying and consumer brands that frequently send notification-style emails, including Amazon and Facebook, to lure homebuyers into making fraudulent transactions vis the BEC. According to the FBI, multi-billions in business losses can be attributed to BEC’s, and real estate companies are specially targeted in these attacks to infect every participant in the real estate transaction. Mortgage Closing Wire Scam: Prior to closing on the sale of a home, when buyer receives an email from their real estate agent, title attorney or other trusted service professional with specific details of the time, date and location of the closing, there is also fraudulent, detailed and urgent instructions on how to wire money for the down payment. The payment goes to the criminal’s bank account, and they within moments of the wire transfer, they withdraw the money with no trail to track them. The number of victims of the mortgage closing wire scam ballooned to 10,000, an 1,110 percent increase in the years 2015 to 2017 with financial losses totaling over $56 million, a 2,200 percent increase. – Internet Crime Complaint Center, FBI ~300Breaches In five quarters from late 2017 to 2018, real estate along with medical device-makers and biotech were "targeted with email fraud more than other industries." —Source: FBI
