Infosec 2014: Intelligence as a Service: The Future of Frontline SecuritySkybox Security
Featuring Marty Legg, Cloud Services Director SecureData
Security technology continues to change with expanding perimeters, massive data, and siloed solutions causing an all-out asymmetric battle! In the middle of it all, large organizations must ensure the highest security while up against ever changing technology, complex regulations, and the need for more specialists and more skills training across the board.
Today’s security landscape causes a strategic security conundrum. Security spend continues to rise … $9.6B in 2006; $22B in 2012; and by 2017 it’s estimated to hit more than $30B. And yet … 621 breaches were reported in the last 12 months, up 23 percent over the past 3 years.
So why are we not winning the battle?

4 Rules for Successful Threat Intelligence TeamsRecorded Future
Threat intelligence is quickly becoming a core element of risk management for many enterprises. Putting a team in place to manage threat intelligence, however, isn’t as easy as other, more established areas of information security. First, it’s newer, and second, organizations might not yet have the right skills and tools in-house.
With that in mind, we’ve identified four simple rules that will help organizations build and maintain a successful threat intelligence team.
What CIOs Need To Tell Their Boards About Cyber SecurityKaryl Scott
Companies are under increasing risks of breaches, theft of intellectual property and erosion of customer trust. CIOs and CISOs need to be able to explain to executive management what's being done to shore up their company's security strategy and defenses.
The emails that you want are only the tip of the iceberg that you get.
Your Challenge
Within the email security gateway (ESG) marketplace, there are numerous vendors with varying options who all claim to be the perfect fit for your organization. It becomes challenging to sift through all the offerings and find the right one.
An ESG must serve a multitude of functions for the organization, as well as meet an array of requirements, all of which can be hard to accurately assess and include confidently.
IT security always struggles with costs. An email gateway can become expensive, but it is vital and thus needs to have a strong case made for implementation, improvement, or replacement scenarios.
Our Advice
Critical Insight
Cloud adoption among business functions is already high. Moving email to the cloud is just another step. Take this into consideration when selecting an ESG.
Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) and Zero-Day attacks are changing the way organizations deal with threats. Recognize the need for greater visibility and tools that stay current with these developments.
Impact and Result
Understand developments within the ESG market to properly evaluate all capabilities and functions of an ESG.
Evaluate ESG vendors and products based on your enterprise requirements.
Determine which products are most appropriate for particular use cases and scenarios.

Cyber crime is big business, and organizations continue to search for effective strategies and technologies to protect themselves and their sensitive data from criminals. Threat intelligence is increasingly viewed as a valuable addition for defenders. To tell this story, we’ve organized some intriguing statistics about the current threat landscape. We answer questions like “What motivates cyber criminals?” and “Why do organizations struggle to detect cyber attacks?” Ultimately, you’ll understand why applying threat intelligence can play a crucial role in detecting and mitigating emerging cyber risks before your business is impacted.
Managing Enterprise Risk: Why U No Haz Metrics?John D. Johnson
A panel with Alex Hutton, Jack Jones, Caroline Wong and David Mortman discussing measuring risk and the SMART use of metrics to quantify enterprise risk. RSA Conference 2013
Here are my slides on "Board and Cyber Security" that I presented at the Just People Information Security breakfast this morning. Thanks Adam for arranging the session and those who attended.
With more than 50,000 new malware created every day organisations can no longer afford to risk the financial and reputational impacts of a security or data breach, which can be too much for a business to recover from. Because of this, IT managers face increasing scrutiny and pressure from CEOs, managing directors and boards to prove that they are keeping the organisation secure.
The changing threat landscape means organisations need to be vigilant and smarter about security. While businesses still face threats from infected devices and malware, attackers have also moved beyond that. For example, there is an increasing number of targeted email attacks with cyber criminals spending time to monitor communications so they can imitate emails that are so sophisticated that even relatively savvy users will open them.
This webinar will explore the building blocks required to ensure you have the roadmap required to best protection against cyber attacks. We will provide you with a high level view of the following topics:
· Audit and discovery – What are your weaknesses and are you compliant?
· Education – Do your employees know when not to open that attachment?
· Policy – Do you have the right policies for your industry?
· Technology – Where to start and what has changed?

A Time of Great Risk: The Time Between Compromise and Mitigation
In most organizations today, threat detection is based on various security sensors that attempt to look for anomalous behavior or for known signatures of malicious activity. These sensors include firewalls, intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS), application gateways, anti- virus/anti-malware, endpoint protection, and more. They operate at and provide visibility into all layers of the IT stack.
Cyber-attacks are an alarming threat to all types of businesses & organizations.The risk of a cyber-attack is not just a risk to your company but also to your privacy.Hence, cybersecurity is crucial for every business. Cybersecurity protects critical data from cyber attackers. This includes sensitive data, governmental and industry information, personal information, personally identifiable information (PII), intellectual property, and protected health information (PHI). If you are looking for tools to fight against cyber threats, then Techwave’s tools & technologies with adequate controls will help your organization stay protected.
