AlienVault.webp 2021-04-26 10:00:00 The 5 most crucial Cybersecurity updates for businesses in 2021 (lien direct) This blog was written by an independent guest blogger. For as long as businesses have used computers, cybersecurity has been crucial. Now, as modern business and data are becoming inseparable, it’s an absolute necessity. As companies start to recover from 2020 losses, they should consider investing in security updates. Cybercrime reached new heights in the past year, with internet crime reports rising 69.4% and costing more than $4.2 billion. Now that more companies are embracing digital services after the pandemic, this trend will likely continue. All businesses, regardless of size or industry, must revisit their cybersecurity. Here are the five most important cybersecurity updates for this year. 1. Implementing a Zero-Trust framework The single most crucial cybersecurity upgrade for businesses this year is adopting a zero-trust security framework. These systems, which rely on network segmentation and thorough user verification, aren’t new but are increasingly crucial. In light of rising cyberthreats, companies can’t afford to trust anything inside or outside their networks without proof. A 2020 survey found that 82% of company leaders plan to let their employees work remotely at least part time after the pandemic. That many people accessing data remotely raises security concerns. Hackers could pose as remote workers to gain access or install spyware, and IT teams wouldn’t know it. Zero-trust models mitigate these threats. Verifying user identity at every step helps guarantee only employees can access mission-critical data. Segmentation ensures that only those who need access can get it, and if a breach occurs, it won’t impact the entire network. 2. Securing machine learning training data Machine learning algorithms are becoming increasingly common among companies in various industries. These models take considerable amounts of data to train, which presents an enticing opportunity for cybercriminals. As more companies rely on machine learning, more threat actors will likely try to poison the training data. By injecting incorrect or corrupt data into the training pool, cybercriminals could manipulate a machine learning system. If companies don’t catch the problem before it’s too late, the algorithms they rely on could influence poor or even harmful business decisions. Given this threat, securing machine learning training data is a must. Businesses should carefully inspect the information they use to train machine learning models. They should also enact stricter access controls over training pools, including activity monitoring. 3. Verifying third-party and partner security Businesses should also look outward when improving their cybersecurity. The growing public awareness of cyberthreats is changing expectations about visibility, and that’s a good thing. It’s no longer sufficient to trust that a business partner or third party has robust data security. Companies must verify it. Third-party data breaches in 2020 exposed millions of records, and major events like the SolarWinds hack have revealed how fragile some systems are. In light of these risks, businesses must ask all potential partners to prove Data Breach Hack Threat Guideline

(lien direct) If you caught part one of our recap series on this year???s Collision conference, you know we covered a roundtable talk hosted by Veracode???s own Chris Wysopal. The talk focused on the risks of AI and machine learning, delving into discussions of how to manage the security aspects of these future-ready technologies ???ツ?especially when it comes down to consumer privacy.ツ? Chris also had the opportunity to host a session of his own, covering the critical aspects of modern application security and the reasons that organizations need to get serious about security-minded approaches to their code. Here???s what we learned.ツ? Secure from the top down Chris began his session Secure From the Top Down by noting that, today, it???s important to think about application and product security through the eyes of the developer or the builder. With so many applications running in the cloud and so many devices connected to the Internet of Things (IoT), Chris pointed out that the attack surface for threat actors is growing exponentially and that everyone building and deploying technology needs to consider the risks moving forward. Connected devices are everywhere, Chris said, but they???re not typically behind a firewall. Normally, these devices are connected to 5G or Wi-Fi. According to Chris, this means devices essentially need to secure themselves and all of the connection points where they talk to other devices or they pose a security risk.ツ? Further, everything is connected through APIs today. ???We used to have big, monolithic software packages with one big block of code,??? Chris said. ???Today, we have a lot of small devices; even with applications running in the cloud, they???re built with microservices and are talking to each other through APIs.??? This is a way an attacker can exploit a device or an application, and means the builders of today need to improve the security around their APIs for a more secure tomorrow. It???s already a problem; Chris pointed out in his session that, according to the 2020 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, 43 percent of breaches come from single page applications. Developers working on building these single page apps need to be more considerate with their security.ツ? Looking ahead at trends Time is the biggest competitor for most organizations, according to Chris, and there are three main trends that are going to impact product security moving forward: ubiquitous connectivity, abstraction and componentization, and hyperautomation of software delivery.ツ? Ubiquitous connectivity While this involves the rise of APIs and IoT devices, what it really comes down to is that each piece of software connected through the network and APIs must think about securing itself. ???Each code that is exposing an API needs to think about how it will authenticate, encrypt, and secure itself from all Data Breach Threat Patching

(lien direct)
Cyber Trends, Risks and the Global PandemicAs we mark a year of working from home through the global pandemic, this is a good time to discuss and delve into the IT changes and trends in our day-to-day work environment and their implications for user privacy, corporate cyber security and cyber insurance. The 3 main categories of software and applications that saw a significant increase in usage over the past year include:Video Conferencing and online communication platformsVPNs and Remote Desktop (RDP) softwaresTwo Factor (2FA) and Multiple Factor Authentication (MFA) applicationsWorking from home has increased the usage of the aforementioned technologies as well as other similar applications, broadened the attack surface and provided new opportunities for various malicious actors as there are more external-internal connections compared to the past, meaning more types of services to keep track of and monitor. This also implies a heavier traffic load due to video streaming, database connections and more. ‍Easier communication, but at what cost?Away from our colleagues and offices, employees have had to adapt quickly to various methods of online communication and meetings in order to keep things running, whether it’s Zoom, Webex, Microsoft Teams, Google meet or any other platform, co-workers are now able to chat, share video and documents easily from computers and phones. Right from the start of the pandemic, Zoom solidified itself as the dominant platform for video conferencing with an increase of 67% in usage between January and the middle of March 2020. By April 2020 it already had more than 300 million daily Zoom meeting participants in comparison to 10 million meeting participants in December 2019.(1)Number of daily Zoom users, December 2019 - April 2020This convenience comes with significant underlying risks to users and corporate networks, as poorly implemented encryption protocols and other security measures can result in unauthorized participants access to otherwise personal or confidential calls. This sort of intrusion, commonly referred to as “Zoom Bombing”, can be at best innocent trolling and cause annoyance but at worst allow access to a malicious actor who can gather sensitive information on the company for espionage purposes(2), harvest participants\' credentials and other PII and leak the call’s content and video as well as use the meeting chat to send phishing links which could escalate to a full-blown ransomware attack on the company\'s network(3). This sort of attack can be carried out by an attacker exploiting vulnerabilities such as (or similar to) CVE-2019-13450(4) which would allow them to forcefully join a meeting. ‍Multiple Factor Authentication - double the safety but not without risks Multiple Factor Authentication (MFA) and Two Factor Authentication (2FA) have been adopted in recent years as an additional security tool to ensure the safety of one’s accounts and personal information. As previously mentioned, the migration to a remote work routine necessitated a secure and verified method for each employee to access their company’s assets online on a daily basis. This basic work necessity came with restrictions and guidelines such as remote desktop applications to create a virtual work environment and 2FA applications in an attempt to strengthen the company’s cybersecurity posture. By May 2020, around 70% of British businesses were already using some type of MFA and a VPN for better cyber security risk management of the changed work environment(5).There are numerous ways by which MFA or 2FA methods can be bypassed, either through brute force (if the requested code is between 4-6 numbers), social engineering or a conventional session management in which attackers use the password reset function. This is due to the fact that 2FA is often not implemented on the system’s login page after a password reset.VPNs and RDPs - work from anywhere and be attacked from anywhereVi Ransomware Data Breach Malware Tool Vulnerability ★★★

AlienVault.webp 2021-04-02 10:00:00 5 steps to respond to a data breach (lien direct) This blog was written by an independent guest blogger. You’ve just been breached. What do you do next? Depending on personality, preparation, and ability under crisis, there are a variety of responses to choose from, some effective and some not. Hopefully, you’re the rare breed who plans in advance how to respond. Even better if this planning includes how to prevent them. But to execute a logical, effective response, keep reading. In this guide, I’ll take you through a methodical process of handling a data breach and how to stop it from happening again. Let’s get to it. 1. Stop the breach At the risk of resembling Captain Obvious, before anything else you need to stop the data leak. But to do that you have to recognize a data breach exists. For some organizations the problem with data breaches isn’t responding to them – it’s knowing they are happening at all. Research indicates that breach detection can take half a year or longer on average. That should be a mind-boggling statistic and testament to the general widespread lack of effective cybersecurity. By the time the problem is spotted, potentially private data has been leaking into the wrong hands for a long time. So... contain it quickly. Isolate the systems that have been compromised and immediately take them offline. Late though it might be, it’s critical to stop the problem from spreading to other parts of your network. Shut down any user accounts that you believe have been used to steal data – it’s better to be safe than sorry. You can restore them later. 2. Assess the damage Next, get ready to undertake some forensics. These should be focused not just on tracing how your data was accessed, but the likely impact of it being released to the general public, in the unfortunate event that happens. While determining whether it’s a data breach, leak, or compromise, you should also ask yourself (and your team) a number of questions: What was the attack vector? Was the attack based on social-engineering tactics or through user accounts? How sensitive is the breached data? What is the type of data affected? Does the data contain high-risk information? Was the data encrypted and can it be restored (did the company backup their data)? It’s crucial that you perform this analysis before going on to the next step. Otherwise, your response to the breach could look uninformed and casual to an outsider. Get the facts straight, in other words, before customers start asking awkward questions. 3. Notify those affected Then it’s time to come clean. Inform everyone who is likely to be affected by the breach at the earliest possible opportunity. While it’s not a terrible idea to make sure your systems are safe before breaking the news, that doesn’t give you a license to wait months “just in case.” It’s tempting to play down the breach. Maybe omit some damaging details in hopes of preserving your brand integrity. Unthink those thoughts! If you are not totally honest and it’s discovered later - which it almost certainly will be - brand damage could be much, much worse. There is also the possibility of legal action. Any nasty, negative online comments the breach gen Data Breach Hack
