Although a latecomer to the security party, HR organizations can play an important role in protecting assets and influencing good security behaviors. HR leadership can strengthen hiring practices, tighten responses for disgruntled employees, spearhead effective employee security education, advocate regulatory compliance and exemplify good privacy practices, be a good custodian of HR data, and rise to the challenges of hiring good cybersecurity professionals.
Symantec Intelligence Report - October 2014Symantec
The number of spear phishing attacks per day continues to trend downward over the last twelve months, coming in at 45 per day in October. Of the attachments used in such email-based attacks, the .doc attachment type comprised 62.5 percent and .exe attachments made up 14.4 percent. Of the industries attacked, the category of Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate received 28 percent of all spear phishing attempts in the month of October, followed by Manufacturing at 17 percent.
The largest data breach that was disclosed in October took place back in July. This breach had previously been reported; however, we learned this month that the breach resulted in the exposure of identities within 76 million households, plus information on an additional seven million small businesses.
In the Mac threat landscape, OSX.Okaz was the most frequently encountered OSX risk seen on OSX endpoints, making up 28.8 percent of OSX risks. OSX.Okaz is an adware program that may modify browser homepage and search settings.
Finally, ransomware as a whole continues to decline as the year progresses. However, the amount of crypto-style ransomware seen continues to increase. This particularly aggressive form of ransomware made up 55 percent of all ransomware in the month of October.

Security Intelligence: Finding and Stopping Attackers with Big Data AnalyticsIBM Security
Attackers are using increasingly sophisticated methods to access your most sensitive data, and at the same time cloud, mobile and other innovations expand the perimeter you need to protect. This keynote discusses how to build a more secure enterprise with real-time analytics and behavior-based activity monitoring.
Advanced Security Intelligence tools store, correlate and analyze millions of events and flows daily to identify critical incidents your security team needs to investigate. The volume, variety and velocity involved clearly defines Security as a “Big Data challenge.”
Learn how advanced predictive analytics and incident forensics help defend against advanced attacks and respond to and remediate incidents quickly and effectively.
Cybersecurity is the body of technologies, processes and practices designed to protect networks, computers, programs and data from attack, damage or unauthorized access
How to Improve Threat Detection & Simplify Security OperationsIBM Security
Over 74% of global enterprise security professionals rate improving security monitoring as a top priority. Monitoring must be done efficiently within a security operations center (SOC) to combat increased threats and a limited supply of trained security analysts.
While the vendor landscape for security solutions is rapidly evolving, many early point solutions and first generation SIEMs are not keeping pace with the changing needs of security operations. A new class of platforms has emerged that combine advanced analytics and flexible deployment options. Join this exclusive webinar featuring Forrester Research to learn:
Characteristics of modern security platforms that have evolved from point solutions and basic SIEMs
Criteria to consider when evaluating vendors and solutions
The advantages of an integrated security platform that incorporates cognitive capabilities and augmented intelligence
Orchestrate Your Security Defenses to Optimize the Impact of Threat IntelligenceIBM Security
Although the majority of organizations subscribe to threat intelligence feeds to enhance their security decision making, it's difficult to take full advantage of true insights due to the overwhelming amounts of information available. Even with an integrated security operations portfolio to identify and respond to threats, many companies don't take full advantage of the benefits of external context that threat intelligence brings to identify true indicators of compromise. By taking advantage of both machine- and human-generated indicators within a collaborative threat intelligence platform, security analysts can streamline investigations and speed the time to action.
Join this webinar to hear from the IBM Security Chief Technology Officer for Threat Intelligence to learn:

Improving Healthcare Risk Assessments to Maximize Security BudgetsMatthew Rosenquist
Healthcare is undergoing major changes
that are being driven by medical, consumer,
IT, and security trends. While these trends
deliver compelling benefits to healthcare
organizations, workers, and patients, they
also carry significant privacy and security
risks. Healthcare organizations are seeing an
escalation in the frequency and impact of
security compromises, driving a corresponding
increase in healthcare privacy and security
regulation at the national and local levels.
This paper looks at how healthcare organizations can better optimize and focus their
privacy and security efforts and budgets
through risk assessments designed to
identify, characterize, and address the most
serious threats and the agents behind them.

2015 Global APT Summit - Understanding APT threat agent characteristics is ke...Matthew Rosenquist
APT attacks originate from people, against a specific target, for an explicit malicious purpose. Attempting to protect all assets from every type of attack is not reasonable or sustainable. Understanding the archetypes of Threat Agents is key to an effective defense. Knowing the capabilities, objectives, and most likely methods of APTs targeting your organization provides predictive insights to where prevention, detection, and response tools and processes will have maximum impact. Such analysis complements the traditional vulnerability management structures which look generically for weaknesses.
Matthew Rosenquist's Understanding APT Threat Agent Characteristics is Key to Prioritizing Risks presentation at the 2015 Global APT Defense Summit in Los Angeles. Prioritizing risks is critical for any sustainable security capability. Understanding the abilities, methods, and objectives of advanced attackers is key in identifying the most critical vulnerabilities and the proper allocation of resources to manage risks.
Matthew Rosenquist's 2015 Cybersecurity Predictions presentation to the ISACA Sacramento chapter on Feb 12th outlines the forthcoming challenges the industry is likely to face and how we can be better prepared for it. Peering into the future of cybersecurity provides valuable insights for security professionals. The industry is changing rapidly and attackers seem to always be one step ahead. Organizations must not only address what is ongoing, but also prepare for how cyber-threats will maneuver in the future.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
