Geopolitical risks from Myanmar to Central Asia to Sweden are influencing the threat landscape for global enterprises. Companies must carry out systematic and capillary monitoring activities aimed at minimizing risks or, at least, limiting possible impacts.
As we continue into 2021, it's no secret we are still reeling from the aftermath and impacts that 2020 unleashed across the globe. That's why—now more than ever—it is critical that companies prioritize their duty of care plans, or risk falling behind for good. Below, we speak to Hugh Dunleavy, Senior Vice President, U.S. Operations and Chief Security Officer of Crisis24, a GardaWorld company, about crafting a robust duty of care program.
The last year has certainly shown businesses all around the world that they must be prepared for the unexpected. How they manage the unexpected is what separates those that sail through their challenges and those that let them significantly harm the institution. Being prepared starts with establishing an effective incident response program.
The response to dis- and misinformation will likely become a critical function for security leaders and risk managers across an enterprise. Find out how disinformation is impacting risk management within organizations and how you can mitigate the risk.
As we embark on the long-haul journey to distribute the COVID-19 vaccine to all Americans, addressing the communication challenges of this distribution has never been more vital for safety and coordination, says David Wiseman, Vice President of Secure Communications at BlackBerry. Here, we talk to Wiseman about the need for unified communications as states implement vaccine rollout strategies.
A security team can sink an infinite amount of time and resources into strengthening your infrastructure, but it’s all for nothing if a default password is used by an exec, or someone in HR makes the mistake of responding to a clever phishing message.
Cybercriminals will always find the path of least resistance and for most organizations the easiest way in is through the people.
Satellites are already being used across critical organizations, including militaries, governments and healthcare, increasing the stakes of a cyberattack. But no matter the size or purpose of an organization, security must be top of the agenda for this space race.
Video storage is an important consideration in any surveillance project while simultaneously being one of the most overlooked. Let’s face it: storage does not exactly provide the “wow factor” of analytics or 4K image quality, but it is the backbone on which entire video security systems are built. If you cannot retrieve and review footage in a timely manner, all the other shiny features you have incorporated into your security surveillance solution is for naught.
Many security researchers are now predicting that deepfakes could become a major security threat in the 2021-2022 period. Where is the threat and what can you do about it?
In recent years, there has been a recognition that social engineering plays a huge part in the execution of cybersecurity attacks. The intersection of “non-physical” and “technical” social engineering is where criminals are mostly focused today. Enter deepfake technology, which poses a looming risk over enterprises and their security leaders as they figure out how to prepare for and mitigate such a risk.
