Cloud Storage and User Authentication Compromises:...

Cybersecurity Sense ·

2017/11/27

Often in the information security industry, professionals can be accused of spreading fear, uncertainty, and doubt with cybersecurity concerns. However, considering the implications of integrity attacks, it is essential to pay close attention to them. As more organizations move to cloud storage, user authentication compromises are increasing. If an organization has sensitive information that can be accessed from anywhere online by simply using a username and password, that information is at risk,

2017/11/13

As operational technology (OT) networks are used with specialized Industrial Control Systems (ICS) to monitor and control physical processes such as assembly lines, mixing tanks, and blast furnaces, these networks have become ripe targets for adversaries. The lack of basic protections like antivirus can enable attackers to quietly perform reconnaissance before sabotaging these physical processes and compromising industrial devices. Once attackers have compromised an OT network, it is easier for them

2017/11/01

Though not in the recent limelight, it’s no secret that espionage from nation states is happening once again. With sophisticated attacks on InfoSec supply chain companies in 2012, 2013—and as recently as the past few months—many people are left wondering who would target these specific companies? In the end, we know that despite agreements between countries, we have valuable intel within the United States that these attackers are seeking.

Ransomware and Unintended Disclosure

2017/09/24

When an organization experiences a data breach, one would hope that a quick recovery is ideal, right? But, did you know that there are instances when a quick breach recovery can hurt an organization? For one healthcare facility, this was the case, as it fell prey to a ransomware attack. While the organization was able to quickly recover operations, it recovered so quickly that it failed to preserve needed evidence for proper forensic analysis. So, what did this organization do as a result? In this

Risks Rising for Email Data Breaches

Cybersecurity Sense ·

2017/09/14

Sadly, email data breaches continue to be an increasing problem for businesses and organizations who retain large amounts of sensitive client and customer data. In fact, more than 700 million email accounts and millions of associated passwords were recently leaked in the biggest spambot dump ever. Breaches of this scale and impact have happened to Dropbox, LinkedIn, and Adobe in the past few years. So, what is the risk to your organization?

The Risks of Remote Access

Cybersecurity Sense ·

2017/08/28

Remote access to networks has become commonplace in today’s IT environments, as this access is mainly used for IT support, power users, and developers. While this capability can be provided in a safe and secure manner, it can also be deployed in a manner that leaves the organization at great risk. When Remote Desktop is enabled, attackers can brute force administrator credentials, because you can’t lock out the administrator account due to excessive failed logins. With this access, an organization’s

Attacker Dwell Time

2017/08/22

Especially for healthcare IT systems, cyber attacks can lead to the exposure of patient data, service disruptions, time-consuming recovery processes, and high costs in the form of paying a ransom or spending money on new servers, security systems, or consultants. However, that is only when an organization is aware of the breach. Some network breaches can go on for months or even years before an organization learns about it, and these can even be organizations that take information security very

Combating Insider Threats

Cybersecurity Sense ·

2017/08/08

It’s true—insider threat events are typically much less frequent than external attacks. However, insider threats often pose a much higher severity of risk for organizations when they do happen. As insiders are given access to sensitive information for work purposes, there’s a great potential for them to do a tremendous amount of damage to a business if they accidentally break policy or choose to steal. Even more, it has been reported that nearly a third of all organizations still have no capability

Business Email Compromise: When The Threat is Internal

Cybersecurity Sense ·

2017/08/08

Since January of 2015, all 50 of the United States have reported an increase in business email compromise (BEC) attacks—a 1,300 percent increase, to be exact. Even worse, organizations have reported a loss of nearly one billion dollars. With everyone now being a potential target, it’s been noted that reconnaissance, social media, and social engineering has played a crucial role, as cyber thieves monitor and learn an organization’s “system.” In this podcast, LBMC Information Security’s Bill Dean
