In this report we share runZero’s observations from our unique perspective as an applied security research team. Our goal is to provide insight into how the security landscape is changing, and recommendations on what you can do to get ahead of these changes.

In May, CRI launched a global study to discover the level of MFA awareness and implementation among 1403 small and medium sized business surveyed across eight countries.

This research aimed to uncover insights into how employees have fared over the past two years, where hybrid and remote working has been commonplace. It reveals the significant benefits that hybrid working has brought to both employees and employers, despite the challenges anticipated at the start of the pandemic.

An analysis on the indicators to be derived from detecting Internet of Things (IoT) in organization’s public internet facing profiles.

This annual report looks at changes in internet of things security.

In this report, we will address the aforementioned questions using data that Forescout Technologies has carefully gathered, tested and validated from all forms of device networks and the applications they support. This report presents data from a cross-sectional analysis of the Forescout Device Cloud, which is a repository of host and network information for more than 11 million devices (provided anonymously by Forescout customers). With Forescout Device Cloud, we analyze device fingerprints to identify device function, vendor/model, operating system and version to provide granular auto-classification for a wide range of devices. For this study, researchers limited Device Cloud analysis to 100 large financial services deployments with over 8,500 virtual local area networks (VLANs) and nearly 900,000 devices.

The Cisco 2018 Privacy Maturity Benchmark Study was created in conjunction with Cisco’s Annual Cybersecurity Benchmark Study, a double-blind survey completed by more than 3600 security professional in 25 countries and across all major industries. The privacy specific questions focused on a subset of nearly 3000 respondents who were familiar with the privacy processes at their organizations. Participants were asked about the makeup of their privacy teams, maturity level of their privacy processes, and the impact (if any) they experienced related to delays in the sales cycle due to customer data privacy concerns. We also analyzed responses to other questions regarding cyber events to understand which organizations had been breached in the last year and the size of any losses from these events.

This report reviews the research that has been conducted by the federal government concluding that secure online voting is not yet feasible. We examine the insoluble security problems that are inherent to casting ballots online, including server penetration attacks, client-device malware, attacks to emailed and faxed ballots in transit, denial-of-service attacks, disruption attacks and the challenge to reliably authenticate voters.

This paper tries to answer the question, “What does the general public know about data privacy?”

This report seeks to discuss the issues related to archaic communication devices in the hospital setting. It hopes to provide assistance for the security issues related to updating communication systems.

Hospital communications have a major breakdown in patient handoff due to archaic communication devices. This report seeks to help solve that problem, while also discussing the security issues related to the new communication devices.

This newly released SANS survey suggests the need to broaden the definition of endpoint to include the user. The two most common forms of attacks reported are browser-based attacks and social engineering, both of which are directed at users, not technology. Download this survey report to learn other key issues surrounding endpoint protection.

From the paper, “In terms of the technical roadmap, and considering the great differences between China and international IoT systems and products, this paper mainly analyzes IoT assets in China and describes their exposure. This helps illustrate what IoT devices and services are accessible on the Internet and their potential security problems, with the purpose of raising the public awareness of defending IoT.”

This whitepaper will delve into the evolution of rugged devices, the management challenges associated with such deployments, and how a UEM solution can address these challenges to enable a fully connected environment that is both manageable and secure.

This report contains the observations and insights derived from distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack mitigations enacted on behalf of, and in cooperation with, customers of Verisign. It represents a unique view into the attack trends unfolding online, including attack statistics and behavioral trends for Q4 2016.
