For me, the issue of vaccination passports is actually exposing the underbelly of the privacy and identity debate in the United States at the expense of public health and public safety. This is no longer a matter of whether people are collecting benefits to which they are not entitled, or whether an ID is needed to vote. The issue of vaccination passports and the lack of a national identity strategy in the United States is now literally a matter of life and death.
Are you ready for hybrid work? Though the hybrid office will create great opportunities for employees and employers alike, it will create some cybersecurity challenges for security and IT operations. Here, Vishal Jain, Co-Founder and CTO at Valtix, a Santa Clara, Calif.-based provider of cloud native network security services, speaks to Security magazine about the many ways to develop a sustainable cybersecurity program for the new hybrid workforce.
Removing passwords is a solid goal as they are fraught with vulnerability issues – reuse, common construction patterns and the almighty leaked password problem. These are the three reasons why most organizations are not ready to abandon on-premises Active Directory and move towards a cloud-only model.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the most disruptive innovation in a generation. It is quickly becoming an essential component in many industries, including public safety. However, these are still the nascent stages of AI adoption, and with that, come challenges.
To more effectively reduce risk and capitalize on the capabilities, intelligence and experience of both the corporate application security team and the product security team, John Scimone, Dell Technologies Chief Security Officer, recommends converging these programs.

Threat actors are now not only encrypting critical business systems, but also backups. They’ve brought businesses to a standstill, leaving some non-operational and really, with no good options for recovery. In many cases, it’s been pay the ransom to obtain a decryption key — or go out of business.
Throughout the pandemic, the payments threat landscape was largely influenced by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Cybercriminals continued to employ tried and true methods, such as phishing, payment account enumeration, eCommerce skimming, ransomware, among others to exploit many vulnerabilities during the pandemic, says Natalie Kelly, Visa’s SVP, Global Head of Payment Ecosystem Risk.

Some opportunistic cybercriminals have taken advantage of the pandemic environment to breach both consumer and organizations’ data. These cybercriminals are using COVID-19-themed emails as an opportunity to unleash ransomware attacks on organizations and consumers. Here, we focus on Remote Workforce and Remote Learning as areas that cybercriminals will continue targeting in 2021 and beyond, and explore mitigation strategies that may help reduce cybersecurity risks related to these areas.
