AlienVault.webp 2019-12-16 01:07:00 Should cities pay a ransomware demand? (lien direct) UPDATE: In a “ripped from the headlines” moment, we have real world confirmation of the growing risk discussed in this article. Breaking news over the weekend revealed that both the city of New Orleans and New Jersey's largest hospital network are in the midst of dealing with serious ransomware attacks. When you hear about data breaches and cyberattacks in the news, it's usually in connection with a large company and has affected users across the globe. But that gives the impression that hackers only target huge enterprises when planning their next attack. The truth is just the opposite. Because small organizations, like city and town governments, are forced to work with tight IT budgets but still need to comply with all rules and regulations, they often can't afford to hire cybersecurity experts or invest in expensive software solutions. Hackers know this and focus their efforts on trying to compromise their systems to profit from the damage. In this article, we'll look specifically at the trend of ransomware and how organizations should respond when they are attacked. How ransomware works When a data breach occurs, hackers often seize stolen information from a back-end system and look to sell it on the dark web. But more recently, cybercriminals have realized that they can make money without having to execute a transaction at all. They simply need to hold the stolen data as ransom. Ransomware attacks can begin through a number of different means. Hackers may infiltrate a government's network through social engineering, a phishing scam, or by finding a flaw in access controls. Once inside, they will deploy a form of malware that encrypts all of the files on a local hard drive so that users cannot open, access, or transfer them. These pieces of malware are evolving all the time, which makes it tough for antivirus tools to keep up. For the individuals working in the office, they'll typically see a suspicious screen appear telling them that they have fallen victim to ransomware. The hackers will set a specific financial amount, usually in Bitcoin, to be paid in exchange for releasing the lock on the files. Ransomware isn’t just limited to private companies, public medical infrastructure are common targets of these kinds of attacks. Some companies allow employees to work from home, one access from an unprotected home device that has spy malware installed unknowingly puts the company at risk. Outdated technology is another huge issue. Public hospital systems operate on outdated technology with antiquated data protection software. Even third-party appointment setting software can be targeted to gain access to private health care record and patient databases. The risks of paying Municipal governments rely on their IT systems to sustain operations on a daily basis. Losing access to a server or database can bring everything to a standstill and hurt the citizens who rely on government services. So in the event of a ransomware attack, it's understandable that the organization would seek to resolve the issue quickly, by whatever means necessary, to Ransomware Data Breach Malware Vulnerability

CSO.webp 2019-11-19 07:21:00 IDG Contributor Network: 3 keys to preserving customer relationships in the wake of a data breach (lien direct) For any organization, the primary objective of a “crisis” is to get through the event with as little long-term impact as possible. This means all the elements of your company that were thriving beforehand should still be thriving afterwards. From this perspective, it's not enough to get a system back up and running after a data breach, if you've damaged other parts of the business in the process – for example, your customers lose trust in you and take their business elsewhere.Recent data from Centrify and the Ponemon Institute suggest that customers are becoming increasingly sensitive to the impact of a data breach and how a company manages the response, with 65% saying a data breach had caused them to lose trust in the organization, and 27% discontinuing their relationship with that company. The 2019 Cost of Data Breach Report from IBM Security and the Ponemon Institute found that 36% of the cost of an average data breach was due to business disruption, a category that includes lost customers. The report also found that the average cost of a data breach was nearly $1 million lower when a company lost less than 1 percent of their customers. For those losing over 4 percent of their customers, the cost was roughly $1.8 million more. The report concluded that “the loss of customer trust had serious financial consequences,” on businesses experiencing a data breach.   Data Breach
