Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?Speck&Tech
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

3. AWS Greengrass is
now available
AWS Greengrass eliminates the complexity involved in programming and updating IoT devices.
Amazon Web Services has
announced that AWS Greengrass
is now available to all customers,
enabling users to run AWS
compute, messaging, data
caching, and sync capabilities on
connected devices.
With AWS Greengrass,
devices can run AWS Lambda
functions to perform tasks
locally, keep device data in sync,
and communicate with other
devices while leveraging the
full processing, analytics, and
storage power of the AWS Cloud.
AWS Greengrass
“eliminates the complexity
involved in programming
and updating IoT devices.”
Developers can add AWS
Lambda functions to connected
devices right from the AWS
Management Console, and
devices can execute the code
locally, responding to events
and taking actions in near
real-time. AWS Greengrass also
includes IoT messaging and
synching capabilities so devices
can send messages to other
devices without connecting
back to the cloud. It allows
customers the flexibility to have
devices rely on the cloud when
it makes sense, perform tasks
on their own when it makes
sense, and talk to each other
when it makes sense – all in a
single, seamless environment.
“By embedding AWS
Lambda and IoT capabilities in
connected devices, Greengrass
gives customers the flexibility
to have devices act locally on
the data they generate while
using the AWS Cloud for
management, analytics, and
storage – all using a single,
familiar AWS programming
model,” said Dirk Didascalou,
Vice President of IoT at AWS.
“We are excited to make AWS
Greengrass available to all
customers, and with our partners
shipping AWS Greengrass-
capable devices it is now
incredibly easy to build and run
IoT applications that seamlessly
span devices on the edge and in
the AWS Cloud.”
More than a dozen AWS
partners, including Annapurna,
BSquare, Canonical, Digi
International, Intel, Lenovo,
Mongoose, Qualcomm
Technologies, Raspberry Pi,
Samsung, Technicolor and
Wistron are integrating AWS
Greengrass into their platforms.
“VMware and Dell, together,
are delivering powerful business
benefits that can drive down cost
and time-to-desktop that can have
a real impact to the bottom line
for organisations, and also to front
line IT practitioners,” said Sumit
Dhawan, Senior Vice President
and General Manager, End-User
Computing, VMware. “Integrating
industry-leading solutions from
both companies demonstrates
that we are better together and
in a stronger position to help
businesses frustrated with the
burden of managing multiple
vendor contracts, service
level agreements, solution
management consoles and
everything in between that drive
up the total cost of ownership.”
“Organisations are looking
for solutions that will help
them accelerate their workforce
transformation while controlling
cost and complexity,” said Steve
Lalla, Senior Vice President and
General Manager, commercial
client software and solutions, Dell.
“Through our close collaboration
with VMware, we are able to
deliver integrated solutions from
the endpoint to the data centre
and required software that will
provide even greater value to
organisations than ever before.”
Both VMware AirWatch
integration with Dell Client
Command Suite and the Dell
EMC VDI Complete Solutions
is available immediately
through partners.

In the last two months itself, we have
seen a glimpse of what can transpire
if enterprises, whether small or
large, take cybersecurity lightly.
Both WannaCry and NotPetya, the
recent ransomware attacks, have
crippled organisations from going
about their regular operations and
had monumental information and
financial loss.
These kinds of attacks have
tested the security posture of
firms who had firmly believed that
their security systems can provide
adequate protection. WannaCry
ransomware has brought the
spotlight back on the fundamentals
of evaluating a firm’s security
vulnerabilities, ensuring security
awareness among end-users and
patching systems on time.
The business of selling security
solutions means that what we are
trading is based on ‘trust’. The
current market circumstances offer
huge opportunities for our partners,
both, from an advisory role and
selling holistic solutions. Partners
need to hone their skills in next-gen
anti-malware, patch management,
advanced email security, privileged
identity management and APT
protection solutions. They need
to elevate their role from being
only security solutions providers
to trusted IT security advisors and
consultants with a core competency
in specific industry verticals.
At Redington Value, we look
to continue enabling our resellers
in addressing the full life cycle
of information security needs of
regional customers. We provide
end-to-end support in sales, pre-
sales, consultancy and professional
services engagement in multiple
areas. We encourage our partners
to take advantage of our support
to be able to emerge as successful
security resellers.

4. about alerts and affected endpoints
while providing metadata, so users
can quickly distinguish between
threats and false alarms and save
hours of legwork and research, said
the firm.
“When an attacker gets on an
endpoint, they gain a foothold in
your network – so what begins as
an inadvertent click on a well-
crafted phishing email can escalate
as attackers move laterally within
your network and gain access to
your sensitive information,” said
Fidelis Cybersecurity CTO Kurt
Bertone. “Security teams are
buried in alerts, so we designed
our technology to provide the
visibility, context and automation
that security professionals need to
detect, investigate and resolve the
modern threats that enterprises
face today.”
Fidelis Cybersecurity has

5. The biometric authentication solution helps organisations secure their networks against
unauthorised access, while also reducing the risk of attack from hackers and identity thieves.
Fujitsu has launched PalmSecure
ID Login, a new biometric
authentication solution that
helps organisations secure their
networks against unauthorised
access, while also reducing the
risk of attack from hackers and
identity thieves.
According to the company,
PalmSecure ID Login integrates
Fujitsu rolls out new biometric
authentication solution
Fujitsu’s highly secure biometric
palm vein authentication
technology into corporate
network environments using
Microsoft Active Directory –
helping boost IT security while
also making it easier for users to
log on to their system without
needing to remember complex
passwords, which need to be
changed on a regular basis.
To log on to their PC,
or authenticate for internal
system access, PalmSecure ID
Login users simply hover their
hand over a contactless palm
vein scanner – already built
in to several Fujitsu Lifebook
notebooks and Stylistic 2-in-1
tablets, and available as a stand-
55
alone USB pluggable device.
Enrolled users can log in from
any device within a corporate
network, since PalmSecure ID
Login is connected to Microsoft
Active Directory, which centrally
manages and stores all access
data, including biometrics.
The Fujitsu PalmSecure
technology works by capturing
an infrared scan of oxygen-
depleted blood veins within the
palm of a hand. The technology
combines the convenience of a
contactless sensor with biometric
security. For users, the system
is more convenient and faster
than typing a password – with
identity verification usually
completed within one second,
said the firm.
Thomas Bengs, Director
and Head of Biometrics, Fujitsu,
EMEIA, said, “Passwords are
forgotten, lost and get stolen,
which makes them a serious
vulnerability in any organisation’s
security arrangements. Replacing
password logins with palm
vein biometric authentication
technology reduces the risk of
misuse from stolen or unsecured
passwords, including the worst-
case scenarios of catastrophic
hacker attacks, identity fraud
and large scale data theft. It’s
also impossible to forget your
credentials, since they’re in the
palm of your hand – unlike
a smart card, or a difficult to
remember password.”
Fujitsu PalmSecure ID Login
is available to order across EMEIA
from June 2017, with availability
in Oceania and the Americas to
follow. Fujitsu PalmSecure ID
Login is sold directly from Fujitsu
and through the firm’s partners
with pricing varying according to
geographical regions.
Fortinet has announced the
findings of its latest Global Threat
Landscape Report. The data
spans the cybersecurity kill chain
focusing on three central aspects
of the landscape, including
application exploits, malicious
software, and botnets against the

Fortinet Threat Landscape report

trends. The research reveals that
while more high profile attacks
have dominated the headlines,
the reality is that most threats
faced by most organisations are
opportunistic in nature fueled by
a pervasive Crime-as-a-Service
infrastructure.
Phil Quade, Chief Information
Security Officer, Fortinet said,
“As organisations increasingly
adopt convenience and cost-
saving IT techniques, such as
cloud services, or add a variety of
smart devices to their network,
visibility and control of their
security is at risk. Meanwhile,
attackers are buying or re-using
tools of their own. Cybersecurity
strategies need to increasingly
adopt trustworthy network
segmentation and high degrees of
automation to prevent and detect
adversaries’ efforts to target the
newly-exposed flanks of our
businesses and governments.”
Three important research
highlights are as follows:
Attack tools never forget and
are always ready for service,
anywhere and anytime:
Modern tools and Crime-as-a-
Service infrastructures enable
adversaries to operate on a
global scale at light speed. As
a result, the Internet seems
not interested in geographic
distances or boundaries because
most threat trends appear more
global than regional.
Hyperconvergence and IoT
are accelerating the spread
of malware: As networks
and users increasingly share
information and resources,
attacks are spreading rapidly
across distributed geographic
areas and a wide variety of
industries. Studying malware
can help provide views into the
preparation and intrusion stages
of these attacks.
Visibility of distributed
and elastic infrastructure is
diminishing: Visibility and control
over today’s infrastructures are
diminishing as the number of
potential attack vectors across
the expanded network landscape
continues to grow.

the exposure and opportunity
reach they provide for the
security company. Partners
can attain gold and platinum
levels based on numbers
of deal registrations rather
than revenue, certification
programs or complex points
based programmes.
“As a company,
Malwarebytes has always
been innovative and we’re
carrying that ethos through
to our partner programme,”
said Anthony O’Mara, EMEA
Vice President, Malwarebytes.
“Vendors often make partners
jump through far too many
hoops, wanting arbitrary
criteria to be met, often
dictating to resellers how to
run their business. We’re not
doing any of that. We know
our partners run successful
businesses. So, we’ve
designed our programme to
be flexible, forward-looking
and mutually beneficial.
We want our channel to feel
part of a mutually beneficial
partnership where both parties
are invested in driving growth
together.”
