Over the past few months, millions of workers have turned their homes into their new, remote office, including state government employees, which brought a host of risks through use of unsecured Wi-Fi and poor access controls. This shift toward home as well as the underlying panic brought on by COVID-19 altered hackers’ focus and targets aimed at the remote worker. Chief Information Security Officers (CISO) preparing their companies for this change require time, training for employees and the right technology, as well as increased cooperation between the security teams and IT/network operations groups.
In her “Top Breaches of 2019”, a security journalist asked if last year would “…be the worst on record?” It looks like 2020 could surpass last year’s breaches, but it’s not entirely due to consequences of the global pandemic.

New research finds nearly half of organizations regularly and knowingly ship vulnerable code despite using application security tools. Among the top reasons cited for pushing vulnerable code were pressure to meet release deadlines (54 percent) and finding vulnerabilities too late in the software development lifecycle (45 percent), according to the Veracode and Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) research.
