Look
to the most recent Presidential order regarding security: Executive
Order 14028 and what it states are the most formidable
cyber-security threats (and what they are now expecting you to do to meet NIST and other compliance standards). It will force many to adapt or face
non-compliance and possibly loss of cyber insurance (or worse, all your insurance coverage). We're seeing it creep up already in certain industries.
Security
initiatives important to thwart it all:
1) Zero-Trust
Architecture!
2)
Immutable file storage and backup.
3)
Non-signature-based AV (AI for all your security/endpoints).
4)
Improved email security/control/training to better handle phishing/Malware and
other attacks.
5)
Air gapping data.
6)
Better resiliency to withstand Denial of Service attacks which are
increasing.
and lowest on everyone's list - better, more secure password management. Still there after all these years.

In the last few years, attackers have been looking for new ways to abuse companies by targeting their employees and users and exploiting their weak security procedures.
Here is a list of potential security trends that every individual, business, or organization should be aware of and take appropriate security precautions to avoid:
Zero trust is the absolute necessary mind-shift we need to undergo. We can no longer afford to bank on a 'secure source' or a 'trusted partner', as these may well be already compromised, unknowingly.
The top trends our clients ask for help with are listed below. Hands-down clients don’t have the time, expertise or resources for security and they seek help.
CAPTCHA, Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart, is widely used as a security mechanism to classify human and computer. This security mechanism is based on the Turing Test, which has been conceived to ensure network security.
Hello,
I work as a Quality Executive at a Consumer Goods company.
At the moment, we're researching an email security solution. We have 1000+ users.
Among others, we've been looking at these products: Cisco Secure Email, Forcepoint Email Security and Barracuda Email Security Gateway.
Which of those solutions would you recommend? Please explain its advantages.
Would you recommend any diffe...
Top brands don't mean best or most cost-effective. My advice is to look a bit further before you make a decision.
Evidence suggests that most top brands are pretty good at detecting and blocking malicious attachments, best case letting through 1%, but can be worse than 50% when it comes to detecting malicious links in the text of the email.
There are numerous less well-known vendors with lower-cost AI-based solutions that have a far better success rate, also providing employees the ability to report on suspect emails which auto-removes them from other staff members' inboxes until they have been properly assessed. Some will provide a visual risk score to the recipient to give them advance warning to be more cautious.
Combining this kind of capability with staff awareness products keeps your vendor list lower and further improves efficiency.
For around £2 GBP per user per month (less than $3) we provide different vendors depending upon the customer's environment but provided as a managed service. This allows our customers to outsource some of the monitoring and day-to-day management, spread the cost on a monthly basis, and flex how many licences they need on a monthly basis too i.e. if you drop 20 users don't pay for them but if you increase by 20 you don't need complex co-termination and pro rata discussions.
I only can recommend Cisco because it´s the only one with which I'd worked enough. I think it is powerful enough and has a lot of possibilities. In addition, to a great support team.
We’re launching an annual User’s Choice Award to showcase the most popular B2B enterprise technology products and we want your vote!
If there’s a technology solution that’s really impressed you, here’s an opportunity to recognize that. It’s easy: go to the PeerSpot voting site, complete the brief voter registration form, review the list of nominees and vote. Get your colleagues to vote, too!

What is OWASP?
The OWASP or Open Web Application Security Project is a nonprofit foundation dedicated to improving software security. It operates under an open community model, meaning that anyone can participate in and contribute to OWASP-related online chats and projects. The OWASP ensures that its offerings (online tools, videos, forums, events, etc.) remain free and are easily accessible t...

ICT is getting more and more complex: today I have several systems in Chicago, several more in Amsterdam and if you need to protect your environment you will need to check on-premises, the cloud at Amazon, and the cloud at Microsoft Azure.

1. [True!] Cloud Security hardening/assessment.
2. AI (for massive data processing).
3. Data (protection) and breaches.
4. eGRC (enterprise GRC integrated with eRM and vendor-neutral xLAP visual presentation platform).
5. Collective Intelligence (MISP/Hive and similar platforms for normalization).
1) Security in endpoints (especially because of remote work), especially to protect from phishing, Business Email Compromise (BEC), and ransomware.
2) Security data in transit (use SDP to protect, replace VPNs).
3) Security in Cloud adoption with security in DevOps (use Cloud-based SOCs with their sensors).
4) Security in SaaS applications (protection of SaaS-specific applications, CRM, AI, CDP, etc.).
5) Security in crypto transactions.
In the last few years, attackers have been looking for new ways to abuse companies by targeting their employees and users and exploiting their weak security procedures.
Here is a list of potential security trends that every individual, business, or organization should be aware of and take appropriate security precautions to avoid:
- Attack surface expansion
- Identity system defense
- Digital supply chain risk
- Vendor consolidation
- Cybersecurity mesh
- Distributed decisions
The top ones are:
1) The remote workforce will continue to grow and more attacks will target Work-From-Home users.
2) Zero-trust will gain more prominence.
3) Supply chain still remains a major vulnerability area and we will see a substantial increase in supply chain attacks.
4) IoT and OT will see more targeted attacks that will make headlines.
5) Cybercriminals will continue to use new technologies like AI - which means organizations need to be proactive to stay secure
NDR, SIEM expansion, IPS refresh, 365 migration to the cloud, and some DevOpSec.
@Bret Mantey has nailed it.
Zero trust is the absolute necessary mind-shift we need to undergo. We can no longer afford to bank on a 'secure source' or a 'trusted partner', as these may well be already compromised, unknowingly.
Cybersecurity assessments, advanced endpoint protection, data backup, proper email configuration amd staff cybersecurity awareness education.
