Cybersecurity may be different based on a person's viewpoint. One may want to simply protect and secure their social media accounts from hackers, and that would be the definition of what cybersecurity is to them. On the other hand, a small business owner may want to protect and secure credit card information gathered from their point-of-sale registers and that is what they define as cybersecurity.
Despite differences in implementation, at its core, cybersecurity pertains to the mitigation of potential intrusion of unauthorized persons into your system(s). It should encompass all aspects of one’s digital experience--whether you are an individual user or a company.
Your cyber protection needs to cover your online platforms, devices, servers, and even your cloud storage. Any unprotected area of your digital journey can serve as an exploit point for hackers and cyber criminals intent on finding vulnerabilities.
People assume that it is the responsibility of the IT Department to stop any intrusion. That may be true up to a certain point, cybersecurity responsibility rests with everyone, in reality.
Cybersecurity should be everybody’s business.
The cybersecurity landscape is changing. With 68% of businesses saying that their cybersecurity risks have increased, it is no wonder that businesses have been making increased efforts to protect from, and mitigate attacks.
During the height of the pandemic, about 46% of the workforce shifted to working from home. We saw a surge in cybersecurity attacks - for example, RDP brute-force attacks increased by 400% around the same time.
This is why cybersecurity must be and should be everybody’s business. According to the 2019 Cost of Cybercrime Study, cyberattacks often are successful due to employees willingly participating as an internal actors or or employees and affiliates carelessly clicking a link by accident.
Sadly, it is still happening today. Unsuspecting employees can be caught vulnerable and cause a corporate-wide cyberattack by opening a phishing email or bringing risks into the company’s network in a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) system.
Just a decade ago, Yahoo experienced a series of major data breaches, via a backdoor to their network system established by a hacker (or a group of hackers). Further digital forensic investigation shows the breach started from a phishing email opened by an employee.
Another example was Equifax when it experienced a data breach in 2017 and was liable for fines amounting to $425 million by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
Companies continue to double up on their investments in cybersecurity and privacy protection today to ensure that incidents like these do not happen to their own networks. But a network is only as strong as its weakest link. Hackers continue to innovate, making their attacks more and mo |

2019-02-01 14:00:00 | Things I Hearted This Week, 1st Feb 2019 (lien direct) |
Hello February! I was doing some research last night and was surprised to discover that the Target breach is over five years old! Five years! I was sure it only happened a couple of years ago - but such is the fast-paced nature of the industry, and also I guess a testament to how certain major breaches become part of infosec folklore. Like TJX, or Heartland - and no, I’m not going to look up when any of those occurred because I’ll probably end up feeling a lot older than I already do.
Enough reminiscing - let’s get down to it.
The Big Five
There’s been a lot of things I didn’t heart this week, although for one reason or another they ended up in my list of things to talk about. So, if you’re wondering about the stories regarding Facebook and Apple, and also Google, then yes, I did see them, and no, I don’t fancy talking about them.
But speaking of large companies, Kashmir Hill has undertaken what is perhaps becoming my favourite piece of tech journalism ever. WIth detailed write ups and slick videos showcasing how she cut out the big five of Amazon, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, and Apple from her life, one week at a time.

Considerations for When Your Apartment Goes “Smart”
Everything is getting ‘smart’ these days. By smart, I mean connected and vulnerable. So, what should you do if you live in an apartment where everyone is getting fancy new smart locks (or terribly insecure cheap locks depending on how you look at it).
Lesley Carhart recently found herself in the same position, and has written a really good post on security considerations if you ever find yourself in a similar position.

2019-01-07 06:05:00 | IDG Contributor Network: Managing identity and access management in uncertain times (lien direct) | If we remember one thing from 2018, it is that we are all victims now through one breach or another. Every day, we hear more news about another data breach affecting millions of users with significant financial and reputational consequences to its victims. With massive breaches like Equifax, Facebook, Deloitte, Quora and Yahoo, it is clear that breach notification services and multi-factor authentication (MFA) are not enough to prevent the next data breach headline from appearing in tomorrow's newspapers.Organizations have started thinking holistically, and rightly so, about risk and approaches to security using frameworks such as CARTA, Zero Trust, NIST SP 800 and IDSA. These frameworks offer progressive thinking and valuable approaches to modern identity strategy, but there is no one size fits all. These frameworks are akin to buying furniture from IKEA; assembly required, but with a lot more complexity and a lot more at stake. | Data Breach | Equifax Deloitte Yahoo | |
