Traditional cybersecurity training can be individual or LMS-based and generally hinges on a 30- to 60-minute session of basic training once a year. There will be some visual reminders taking the form of emails or posters during the year. But regardless of the minor variations, traditional training doesn’t work.
In this article, we’ll look at what the existing cybersecurity threats are around open banking, and how individuals, companies, institutions, and regulators can proactively address those risks.
In today’s digital world, personal security is directly tied to corporate security. Therefore, it is critical for organizations to implement employee security guidelines and best practices to improve not only the employees’ digital hygiene and personal security but also the company’s security.
Let’s face it, cybersecurity isn’t the responsibility of a single person, team or department -- it’s a shared responsibility of the entire organization, along with its extended network of technology partners, vendors and suppliers. Since humans are the biggest cybersecurity risk, the concept of a security culture is even more relevant and significant in today’s times.
In a new era of hybrid workspaces, many sectors are making the shift to the cloud and adopting cloud-based SaaS applications at an accelerated pace for agility and scalability - but this practice and the efficiencies that are gained come at a cost. Business leaders are realizing that they must allot more of their resources and budgets to address new security concerns surrounding these transitions to keep their environment safe and prevent breaches.
The Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS) has put out a free online course for organizations to assess their COVID-19 workplace risk.
The massive shift to remote work and a continually expanding attack surface has made the concept of trust-based security a naïve one at best, dangerous at worst. But the upshot is that everything we’ve seen and experienced in the past year has helped seed the need for a zero-trust based approach. Let’s look at some of the major trends and factors of the past year and how these risks can be mitigated using a zero trust approach.
As organizations shift IT spending to cloud services, it’s important to prepare for more regulations, a high rate of data loss, and a likely increase in attacks on cloud apps. To plan for these challenges, organizations need visibility and security for software-as-a-service (SaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS), and infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) clouds. Here are four categories to consider to secure your cloud environments.
Back when threats were only of a physical nature, power plants created and conducted drills to prepare. While a physical attack is still a concern, we must now also consider a digital protection system. Because of the rapid rate of development in this sector, it is imperative that power plant technicians understand both the physical and digital threats they may face.
A data security platform can provide a holistic approach by providing key data-centric capabilities that keep data secure from first touch—during data acquisition—through the activities such as data curation and analysis and ultimately to archiving and data destruction.
