The document summarizes key findings from a Palo Alto Networks application usage and risk report on enterprise networks in Thailand: - The average organization had 16 social networking applications, with Twitter and Zynga consuming 11% and 8% of bandwidth respectively. Social networking usage in Thailand is more active than globally. - 95% of organizations had an average of 16 browser-based filesharing applications. Both work and entertainment uses pose common business and security risks. - 29% of the 759 total applications found used only port 80 (TCP/80). - 34% of total bandwidth was consumed by 28% of applications that did not use port 80 at all. - While port 80 emphasis

Five Facts About Application
Usage on Enterprise Networks
in Thailand

Application Usage and Risk Report
December 2011

Average number of social networking
applications per organization?

A total of 60 different social networking applications were
found in 97% of the 75 participating organizations with an
average of 16 found on each network.

Which application is used more heavily?

Based on the percentage of social networking bandwidth
consumed, Twitter consumed 11% of the bandwidth while
Zynga consumed 8%.

Thailand social networking usage is active. Facebook
dominates but action oriented (games, posting, and plugins)
usage is greater in Thailand than it is globally.

Average number of browser-based
filesharing applications per organization?

A total of 48 different browser-based filesharing
applications were found in 95% of the 75 participating
organizations with an average of 16 in each.

Browser-based filesharing use cases: work or
entertainment. Both uses have a common set of business
and security risks that organizations must address.

The number of applications
using Port 80 (tcp/80) only?

The number of applications that ONLY use Port 80 is 210 or
29% of the 759 applications found in the participating
organizations.

Percentage of total bandwidth consumed
by applications not using tcp/80?

34% of the total bandwidth is being consumed by 210 (28%
of 759) applications that DO NOT USE port 80 at all. Ever.

Port 80 only security is shortsighted. The common
perception is that Port 80 (tcp/80) is where all the traffic and all
the problems are. A port 80 emphasis is an absolute
requirement; but too much focus is shortsighted.

Social networking and file sharing applications are widely used in Middle Eastern organizations, with Facebook and Twitter consuming over 70% of social networking bandwidth. On average, organizations have 19 social networking applications and 18 file sharing applications. While many applications only use port 80, over 80% of bandwidth is consumed by applications not using port 80, showing the need to monitor more than just port 80 traffic.

Detecting Malicious Facebook Applications

1crore projects

This article discusses detecting malicious Facebook applications. It presents FRAppE, a tool that can detect malicious apps with 99.5% accuracy. Key points: - 13% of over 111,000 observed Facebook apps were found to be malicious. Malicious apps often share names and request fewer permissions than benign apps. - Malicious and benign app profiles differ significantly. Malicious apps exhibit "laziness" - many use the same names. FRAppE uses on-demand and aggregated data to profile apps. - Apps collude on a massive scale to promote each other. Over 1,500 apps promoted over 3,700 other apps. Well-organized "app-nets" control many malicious apps

The document discusses internet usage and technology adoption rates in Spanish households. It finds that 57.4% of Spanish households now have broadband internet access, an 11.6% increase from 2009. Over 22 million people in Spain now use e-commerce. Technology usage among minors is also very common, with 94.6% using computers and 87.3% using the internet. However, concerns about internet security remain, with over 70% of users worried about computer viruses and over 60% concerned about inappropriate content and personal information theft.

PALO ALTO -NETWORKS Application Usage & Threat Report 2014

Marcello Marchesini

The document analyzes application usage and cyber threats across over 5,500 organizations. It finds that while common sharing applications like email, social media and file sharing represent a high percentage of total applications and bandwidth used, they account for a relatively low percentage of observed threat activity. Specifically, these applications delivered 32% of threats but exhibited only 5% of threat activity. The majority of threats instead were concentrated in a small number of "workhorse" applications. Code execution exploits that allow malware installation were the most common threat type delivered via common sharing applications.

Mobile Security: Apps are our digital lives.

Veracode

Every app that resides on our devices contains information on some aspect of our lives. What games we play, who we talk to, where we work, what utilities make our lives easier are all captured by our apps on our mobile devices. Anyone armed with this information can mimic our digital lives to friends, family, colleagues and even corporate systems. Who we are and what we know is valuable information – and not just for marketing folks like me. <a>Webinar: What Are Employees’ Mobile Apps Doing Behind Your Back?</a>

The document provides an executive summary and findings from application usage assessments of over 1,000 organizations globally and within specific countries/regions. Key findings include that over 40% of applications use SSL or hop ports, accounting for about a third of bandwidth. Social networking, IM and webmail usage has increased significantly compared to 12 months ago. File transfer applications like FTP, P2P and browser-based sharing provide value but also security risks over time as the technologies evolve. Country/region specific sections highlight variances in application usage patterns and risks.
