Its proposed changes are expected to take effect on March 1, 2017. Financial services companies would have until Feb. 15, 2018, to submit a certificate of compliance with the program. Components of New York's proposed cybersecurity program are outlined in this article.
This document provides recommendations for improving cyber security practices in financial institutions. It discusses the need to properly address cyber threats, develop effective security policies, and continuously monitor and improve weak areas of systems. Specific threats like insider misuse, errors, denial of service attacks, and crimeware are examined, and recommendations are given for mitigating each threat. Additional techniques suggested include implementing redundant systems, secure communications, browser addons, software updates, bounty programs, backups, authentication, encryption, and secure development practices. Real-world examples like the Carbanak attack demonstrate the ongoing risks, emphasizing the importance of proactive cyber security measures.

Cybersecurity: Cyber Risk Management for Banks & Financial InstitutionsShawn Tuma
Everyone should now understand that no bank or financial institution is immune from cyber risk. Many are now ready to move forward with improving their cyber risk posture but do not know what to do next or how to prioritize their resources. Recognizing that cybersecurity is an overall business risk issue that must be properly managed to comply with many laws and regulations governing banks and financial institutions, this presentation will provide a strategy for how to better understand and manage such risks by:
(1) Providing an overview of the legal and regulatory framework;
(2) Examining the most likely real-world risks; and
(3) Providing strategies for how to manage such risks, including cyber insurance and the development and implementation of an appropriate cyber risk management program (which is not as difficult as it sounds).
Shawn E. Tuma, cybersecurity and data privacy attorney at Spencer Fane, LLP, delivered the presentation titled Cybersecurity: Cyber Risk Management for Banks & Financial Institutions (and Attorneys Who Represent Them) at the Southwest Association of Bank Counsel 42nd Annual Convention on September 20, 2018 (formerly, Texas Association of Bank Counsel).

FireEye Cyber Defense Summit 2016 Now What - Before & After The BreachFireEye, Inc.
Recognize the business impact, own the risk, educate stakeholders, and prepare the organization for the breach. The document discusses the average costs of data breaches, quantifiable and difficult to measure impacts of incidents, and intangible impacts on consumer confidence and public perception. It emphasizes directly engaging stakeholders, understanding business needs, communicating risk effectively, having incident response plans, security controls, and ongoing monitoring to prepare for an inevitable breach.
This document discusses cybersecurity risks and challenges for banks. It notes that banks hold sensitive financial and customer data, making them attractive targets for sophisticated cyber attacks seeking monetary rewards. The document outlines key cybersecurity issues banks face such as regulatory compliance pressures, consumerization trends, emerging attack types like APTs, and the sophistication of threats. It provides examples of past attacks on banks and discusses security challenges from e-banking, mobile banking, outsourcing, and PSD2 regulations. The document advocates for strategies like threat intelligence, compliance with standards like PCI DSS and ISO 27001, and information security maturity to help banks mitigate cybersecurity risks.
This document discusses cybersecurity risks and strategies for insurers. It notes that as cyber threats have increased, insurers must gain a deeper understanding of cyber risks to develop effective cyber liability policies. Insurers need to maintain the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of systems and data. The document recommends that insurers take proactive approaches to cybersecurity, such as developing long-term security programs, investing in cybersecurity, and integrating cyber risks into enterprise risk management. It also discusses emerging threats, the importance of data integrity, and how technologies like keyless signature infrastructure can help address issues.
Threat modelling identifies potential security threats and vulnerabilities to develop mitigations. It is an essential process for managing cybersecurity risks. Threat response helps detect attacks in real time by monitoring activity and generating alerts. It allows security operators to quickly neutralize threats before they cause disruption. As technology plays a larger role, the need for threat modelling and response consultants has increased to combat cyber threats and protect organizations' data and systems.
The document discusses IT risk assessment and ISO 27001 risk management. It describes the process of IT risk assessment, which identifies existing flaws in an organization's IT ecosystem that threaten data and network security. A formalized risk management program assesses the impact of information security risks and identifies, assesses, and responds to impending risks. Risk assessment is the first step in risk management and provides insights into the effectiveness of an organization's IT security measures. The document then discusses HLB HAMT's approach to risk assessment, which divides the process into evaluation, threat management, and risk mitigation phases to identify vulnerabilities, assess threat severity and frequency, and implement security controls and risk acceptance practices.

Cyber Risks & Liabilities - Cyber Security for Small Businessesntoscano50
High-profile cyber attacks on companies such as Target and Sears have raised awareness of the growing threat of cybercrime. Recent surveys conducted by the Small Business Authority, Symantec, Kaspersky Lab and the National Cybersecurity Alliance suggest that many small business owners are still operating under a false sense of cyber security.
The statistics of these studies are grim; the vast majority of U.S. small businesses lack a formal Internet security policy for employees, and only about half have even rudimentary cybersecurity measures in place. Furthermore, only about a quarter of small business owners have had an outside party test their computer systems to ensure they are hacker proof, and nearly 40 percent do not have their data backed up in more than one location.
The importance of securing web applications cannot be overstated in today's digital era. By proactively addressing security risks, organizations can protect sensitive data, prevent cyber attacks, maintain user trust, ensure regulatory compliance, sustain business operations, and safeguard their reputation. https://www.bytec0de.com/cybersecurity/web-application-security-course-in-delhi/

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Why Startups Need to Strengthen Application Security
1. SMBs need protection from cyber risks, now more than ever. Is application
security pushed to the bottom of your priority list?
Why Start-Ups Need to
Strengthen Application
Security
Take Application Security Seriously!
1. Be aware of the most common types of cyber-attacks
such as phishing and spear-phishing, DoS and DDoS,
SQL injection, malware, compromised/stolen devices,
cross-site scripting, and zero-day attacks which could
pose a threat to your company.
2. Foster cybersecurity culture among your employees
because many attacks occur due to employee
negligence and human errors like compromised
passwords, ignoring company cybersecurity
guidelines, and opening phishing emails.
3. Restrict and manage the access of sensitive or
confidential information to only those people who need
it to do their job. Remove access once the job is
completed.
4. Conduct regular security testing of your applications to
identify all the vulnerabilities and potential risk factors.
5. Design an incident and failure response strategy in the
event of a security breach.
