ZDNet: Compromising a business supply chain is a key goal for cyber attackers, because by gaining access to a company that provides software or services to many other companies, it's possible to find a potential way into thousands of targets at once.
Institutional Investor: Traditional asset managers, hedge funds, and private equity firms are spending billions to protect against hackers and cybersecurity attacks. But public pension plans, which are often understaffed and underfunded, are among the most vulnerable. Still, no matter how much is spent to protect vulnerable systems, the breaches often involve simple ruses.
Legal Reader: The institutions offering financial services are 300 times more exposed to the threat of cyber criminals. According to the latest survey of KPMG Business Instincts, many C-suites are always at the risk of some form of cyber-attack due to low technology investment. If the companies continue overlooking the pressing and rising concern surrounding cyber security, they are at risk of losing everything.
Private Equity Wire: Over the past 18 months, the shift towards working from home has exposed private equity firms to a far higher threat of cyberattacks, and many have wanted to review their cybersecurity options to ensure good defences against cyber-attack, says George Ralph, Global Managing Director and CRO of business IT consultancy RFA, who specialise in cloud, data, and cybersecurity solutions.
Financial Post: CSC, a world leader in business, legal, tax, and domain security, released its annual Domain Security Report: Forbes Global 2000 Companies, which found that despite the shift to modernize business environments and operations among the Global 2000 companies, web domains remain dangerously under protected.
Forbes: Humans: we'd like to believe they're all good at the core. Unfortunately, there are a few bad apples in the bunch — or at least very opportunistic apples. When it comes to cybersecurity, the bad apples are hackers who are out to invade, profit from or damage a business.
International Adviser: Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams and e-signatures are just some of the digital solutions that have become part of our daily lives in the last year and a half or so. They were unknown before the plethora of lockdowns we’ve all gone through.
Help Net Security: Marlin Hawk released a research report which explores industry trends and insights of CISOs around the world, the challenges they face in a rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape, as well as their role and place within organizations.
Dark Reading: After polling some 1,000 senior cybersecurity leaders, EY found that CISOs and other security leaders are struggling with inadequate budgets, regulatory fragmentation, and disconnection with the functions that need them the most.
