This infographic provides a brief overview of data presented in the ThreatMetrix Q2 2018 Cybercrime Report.

This report offers insight into how you can use the theory of 8 degrees of separation in threat research.

This survey, the sixth in a series of annual studies by SANS on security practices in software development, is the first to explicitly focus on DevOps. The results of this study show that organizations are finding ways to keep up with rapid change through DevOp but they have a number of challenges they still need to deal with.

This brief whitepaper offers some thoughts on why endpoint security should move to the cloud.

This is DLA Piper’s fourth Tech Index study into the perceptions and attitudes of European technology growth. As ever, we review how attitudes are changing with regard to market developments, shifts in the financial regulatory landscape and government policies designed to spur business innovation in an increasingly uncertain and disruptive world.

In the DomainTools Reports, we explore various “hotspots” of malicious or abusive activity across the Internet. To date, we have analyzed such varied markers as top level domain (TLD), Whois privacy provider, domain age, patterns of registrant behavior, and more. In each case, we found patterns across our database of over 300 million (315M+ as of this writing) active domains worldwide; these patterns helped us pinpoint nefarious activity, at a large scale, in ways that are similar to methodologies used by security analysts and threat hunters at smaller scales to expose threat actor infrastructure.

This e-book provides good insight into understanding cyber crime.

After analyzing the activities of cyber threat actors this year, the DomainTools Research Team has identified four key cybersecurity concerns that security teams, executives, consumers and government officials can expect to encounter next year. From hacked drones with the potential to cause physical harm, to advancing activity from North Korea and Hidden Cobra, this paper connects the dots between the past, present and future to help organizations get ready for the security challenges of 2018.

To lure unsuspecting consumers to fake websites to purchase counterfeit goods, cybercriminals abuse the Domain Name System (DNS) – every day, every hour, every minute. In this report, “Luxury Brands, Cheap Domains: Why Retailers Are Losing The Fight Against Online Counterfeiting,” cybersecurity firms Farsight Security and DomainTools, the leaders in DNS intelligence, took a close look at four international luxury brand domains and learned that the potential abuse of their brand, by counterfeiting and other malicious activities, is significant.

Cybersecurity incidents are increasing at astonishing rates with no end in sight. The impact of these incidents in business disruption, cost and invasion of individual privacy has provoked a groundswell of legislation and government regulation across the globe. With new regulations coming fast and furious, security professionals are often in uncharted territory, forced to juggle conflicting goals of security and privacy on one side and business growth and innovation on the other—and all under the umbrella of compliance and monitoring. Read on to learn more helpful information.

This paper sets out the key privacy implications of processing biometric data in the EU and Switzerland, Canada, USA and the Asia Pacific region (covering Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia). This paper will touch on legislation and best practice recommendations in these jurisdictions without going into the details of specific laws.

The purpose of this white paper is to better understand the challenges that healthcare organizations face as they attempt to modernize efforts in the areas of data collection and analysis, value-based care strategies, and patient and caregiver engagement. This report will discuss how outdated technology investments hamper these efforts— especially as hospitals and other healthcare providers attempt to partner with fellow provider organizations, health information exchanges (HIEs), and accountable care organizations (ACOs) to fully take advantage of the shift to value-based care reimbursements.

We are living in a world where breaches of consumer privacy are a regular phenomenon. Breaches, such as the Cambridge Analytica-Facebook snafu and the Google+ leak, have dominated headlines in 2018, exposing the personal information of millions of people and shaking our trust in big brands. Many consumers are making drastic changes to the way they interact with brands online, and they believe businesses need to take ultimate responsibility for protecting their data. Ping Identity surveyed more than 3,000 consumers across the U.S., UK, France and Germany to examine consumer attitudes in a post-breach era to help businesses maintain trust and stay ahead of their customers’ expectations.

Cybercriminals will use any and all devices available to them in order to lie, cheat and steal from you. Until they’re blocked. Then they switch to different devices, counting on your fraud prevention efforts to forget about their old devices. When that happens, they start using their old devices again. They would love for you to believe that device history isn’t important. That’s why your fraud prevention tools shouldn’t forget older devices either. It’s essential to know when a device, especially one that’s new to your business, has a history of fraud. Even if that fraud happened years ago.

What the Internet of Things means for consumer privacy discusses the findings of an Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) research programme, sponsored by ForgeRock, that explores the privacy concerns and priorities of global consumers stemming from the Internet of Things (IoT) and related technologies.

Almost every individual and every business now has a cyberpresence that needs to be secured. Digital transformation has also created a growing supply of security targets in the form of information-rich storehouses of data. Identity and access management (IAM) platforms offer one way to tackle this problem. IAM platforms provide a set of solutions to identify users and control their access within an IT environment. However, modern identity isn’t just about security, privacy, or even convenience. The key value of an identity platform is enablement, in that it allows an organization to securely provide services to end users. It is all “Yes you can … but only you can.”

The ancient Chinese general Sun Tzu said “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.” While it’s unrealistic to think we can win every battle against cyber criminals, Sun Tzu’s words have a lot to offer. The problem that every privacy and security team faces is how to defend on every possible front with finite resources and budget. And the simple answer is, you don’t have to.

This report provides information cultivated by the Task Force, which offers the opportunity to address significant cybersecurity concerns in the health care industry.

This e-book offers insight into online fraud and cyber-crime.

To find out how European enterprise customer data leaders are tackling this complex problem, Janrain conducted more than 50 interviews (see appendix 1 for interviewee profile), the findings of which are distilled into this eBook.

This survey shows many American consumers are in favor of regulations designed to give them greater control over how businesses use their personal data. 78% of them were aware of the Facebook data-sharing scandal, in which political consultancy firm Cambridge Analytica gained access to private information on more than 87 million Facebook users. 94% reported being generally concerned about their data and 57% said that the scandal made them even more concerned about their data privacy and security than they were before. The survey results show that many American consumers are open to regulations designed to give them greater control over how businesses use their personal data. 69% of those surveyed would like to see privacy laws like the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) enacted in the US.
