This document discusses laptop security and the costs of lost or stolen laptops. It notes that 100 laptops are lost each day in the US, with 1 in 10 laptops containing sensitive data. The average cost of a lost laptop is $49,246, with 80% of the cost coming from the lost data. Implementing security policies and practices like strong passwords, backups, and laptop locks can help reduce theft by 43% and better protect sensitive data.
Laptop theft within businesses is alarmingly common.
Protect yourself and your business and prevent becoming one of the statistics by educating yourself about the problem!

Loss of critical documents and data, via the back-door, is the the biggest threat to many organisations today, big and small, yet has been almost entirley neglected until now".
Barry James, the UK’s leading expert in the emerging field of mobile applications and endpoint security, will explore the emerging threat and explain the remedies available.
In an era of global connectivity, online information and systems are playing an increasingly central role in business. According to data from Cisco, worldwide internet-connected devices will reach 50 billion by 2020, and with 15 billion devices already in 2015 it is apparent that an increasing numbers of companies, systems and information are working online.

ATT&CKcon Power Hour - ATT&CK-onomics - gert-jan brugginkGert-Jan Bruggink
The objective of this talk is to inspire defensive strategies designed to impact cost incurred by adversaries to perform compromises. It explores targeting economic considerations when defending against techniques used by adversaries.
Diving into economics for adversaries to use or build certain techniques and tools over others. How can defenders defend against specific techniques by increasing the adversaries cost per intrusion. How can ATT&CK be used to make strategic risk management decisions.

Counterfeiting is not a new term for electronic industry as counterfeit electrical and electronic products now occupy second place after pharmaceuticals estimated to range anywhere between US$11 billion to $20 billion worldwide
every year. However, counterfeit electronic parts have been much in the public eye in recent weeks. On March 28, 2014 one of Indian Air Force Aircraft (C-130J Super
Hercules) crashed near Gwalior city killing five crew members. There were controversial news reported
in media about the counterfeit electronics being the reason for C-130J air crash. Over the past several years the electronics industry has seen a marked increase in the
availability of counterfeit electronic components. Counterfeiters have attacked every commodity of electronics, from simple components such as capacitors,
to complex integrated circuits such as microprocessors. In expensive commercial devices, as well as high cost military components, have seen counterfeiting on the rise. This article highlights the serious risk, its impact and the possible proactive steps that can be taken to curb this menace.

Understanding the Impact of Today's Security Breaches: The 2017 Ponemon Cost ...IBM Security
Understand the impact of today's security breaches by attending our June 26th webinar which will discuss the 2017 Ponemon Cost of a Data Breach study.
Join Ponemon Institute and IBM Security Services on June 26th for a webinar discussing the impact of today’s security breaches based on the latest release of the 2017 Cost of Data Breach Study.
Register for IBM Security Services Webinar highlighting Ponemon Institute 2017 Cost of Data Breach Study The 12th annual Cost of Data Breach Study conducted by Ponemon Institute and sponsored by IBM Security Services calculates the real costs, implications and probabilities of security breaches faced by global organizations.
This webinar will present global findings highlighting trends across 11 countries and 2 regions. Attendees will have access to industry experts for live Q/A and will walk away with key insights, cost reducing strategies, investments and proactive best practices to reduce impact to their businesses in preparation for the next breach.

Mobile operators have invested billions in LTE networks, while security breaches and service disruptions have risen and exposed the new vulnerabilities of this all-IP network and risk the high service standards and reputation so carefully constructed. Since it costs far less for a hacker to attack a mobile network than for an operator to protect against every foreseeable threat, operator must balance business risk against infrastructure investment and rightfully demand fact-based analysis of the options. How can an operator realistically weigh the business value of deploying a new security element in such a rapidly changing and uncertain environment?
This brief from Stoke provides a methodology with illustrative examples for quantifying the risk vs. the cost of securing the S1. The brief combines groundbreaking research from Ponemon Institute, with data from well publicized LTE incidents and applies them to a representative operator scenario to estimate the financial impact of a security breach and network outage.
IN THIS E-GUIDE, LEARN HOW TO:
-Bridge the Gap Between C-Suite Executives and In-House IT Teams
-Calculate the True Cost of Downtime
-Zero In On Infrastructure Vulnerability to Data Center Downtime
-Avoid/Recover Accidental Data Deletion and Employee Created Downtime
