Consumers have gotten a raw deal, pressed to provide valuable, personal information to companies while receving little or no benefit, often putting themselves at risk of fraudulent activity, or of receiving endless irrelevant spam.
This report provides an overview of the developing Customer Identity and Access Management market segment and recommendations for implementing a solution that will help you consistently deliver brand-building customer experiences.
With more techno-progress in the health sector every day, hackers haven’t left any chance to gobble data from this industry as well. Digitized records have become quite easy to steal. Privacy has become an illusion. Identity theft and record corrosion have become frequent, that too on a global scale. The data hacked in Germany gets used in the USA and so on (the horrors it has caused). Every time you visit a doctor’s office, hospital or an institute, your medical records are updated. With each entry, the probability of data leaks spikes to 1 in 50,000. Can you imagine the amount of data gobbling that can happen among the world population?
The global security industry is growing at a rapid pace. More professional and coordinated operations across disciplines and geographical borders among criminals, is one of the drivers of the increased demand for advanced security services. This calls for more intense surveillance and security, according to the Europol “Serious and Organized Crime Assessment Report”. Gartner puts the global security market at $86bn, with annual growth of close to nine percent, citing “growing complexity of attacks”.
Big data, analytics, and especially mobile are disrupting the marketplace, and your customers need to understand the implications and opportunities inherent in the new marketplace. This webcast outlines ways to become a trusted source of knowledge and information on storage options for your customers.
This IBM® RedpaperTM publication describes best practices for deploying IBM FlashSystemTM V9000 enterprise storage system in a VMware vSphere environment. It includes guidelines and examples of the latest FlashSystem V9000 hardware and software, integrated with VMware version 6, to demonstrate the business benefits these solutions.
Nowadays, information loss and data leakage in any sphere is one of the most complicated problems to face. Public health corporations are having negative experience in losing electronic record files with personal and protected health information, including Social Security numbers and medical histories. Online shops, in turn, due to authentication bugs are facing a dangerous situation when all customer’s accounts are at risk of a data breach. Another example in this regard is stealing customer records by banks employees before joining the rival.
Believe me when I say I’ve had my share of disruptions when it comes to operating an online business over this past decade. I’ve seen minor setbacks such as accidentally overwriting important files to catastrophic disasters like when my laptop bricked after falling out of my bag. When all of your work is done through a computer – it becomes apparent that you need to take precautions to keep your business files safe and sound.

According to statistics provided by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a violent crime occurs every 25 seconds in the United States; meanwhile, the Daily Mail reports that a minor crime is committed in the United Kingdom every five seconds, however, according to a study from the research firm Javelin Strategy & Research, an identity is stolen online every two seconds. Cybercrime is a real crime – it provides more anonymity, it can be more difficult to prosecute and, this may surprise you, it is even more profitable than offline crimes.
Historically, the primary goal of cyber criminals has been to steal data that the criminals find valuable: personally identifiable information, intellectual property and so on. That digital information would then be converted, via fraud or other means, into real-world cash. Today, however, we are being confronted by attacks that directly affect the physical world – those launched against power grids, water systems and other crucial infrastructure.

The estimated annual cost of cybercrime globally is about $100 billion. Dedicated hackers are developing their strategies so well that you may not even know your systems have been hacked until it’s too late. Here are 5 sure signs that your network has been compromised.
A sign of the times is that commuters on buses and trains are known to wrap their credit cards in aluminum foil so their personal information can’t be ‘skimmed’ by nearby cyber thieves. The practice recalls paranoid UFO believers who, in the 1950s, would wear hats made of aluminum foil so that aliens couldn’t read their brain waves. What’s mind boggling about the two stories is that the second was the stuff of nutty conspiracy theorists and the first is a grim reality of being a digital consumer today.

Keeping your business data safe is crucial to the success of your business. The last thing you want is for your competitors to gain insight into your product secrets or for sensitive client information to be leaked. Protecting your data is not only important to the success of your business but can also keep you from hefty fines and lawsuits. How can you keep your data safe? This post looks at a couple of things you need to use in order to keep your business data secure.
Business used to be simpler. It used to be possible—in fact, it was the norm—for enterprises to run their Domain Name Service (DNS) from just one data center. They placed their servers within its confines and went on their way without a care. After all, if their one data center went down, the DNS server would be useless.
As the internet and the international hacker community have evolved, network security has become essential for all companies. Yet, despite the fact that small and large corporations all over the world are going to great lengths to protect their infrastructure and data, networks are still being hacked on a regular basis.
Cybercrime costs the global economy as much as $450 billion each year. And, the median cost of cybercrime has increased by nearly 200% in the last five years. Meanwhile, collaboration has become the cornerstone of successful organizations. But collaboration often comes with a risk. The number of cyberattacks will grow as employees increasingly use collaboration tools to maximize their company’s productivity.

Here’s an example of how SSH user keys can be misused and abused. In order to gain access to a development environment, developers go through a jump host, which allows them to access the servers they need. It oversees the commands they use and actions they take during their sessions.
Fifty years ago, locking the front door was all we needed to feel safe and protected. We’ve come a long way since then. Nowadays, we live digital and connected lives that unfortunately expose us to new threats on a daily basis. No matter how much we try to protect our home from intruders, cyber criminals already live within our walls when we connect to the internet.

Just as you don’t know what’s lurking in the ocean water at the beach this summer, many organizations aren’t aware of the cyber threats hiding in their encrypted communications. As today’s threat landscape continues to evolve, SSL/TLS encryption is being widely adopted to protect enterprise communications while ensuring data privacy.
On October 1, 2015, a liability shift occurred as it relates to responsibility for paying for chargebacks for counterfeit cards used at a retail store. Between the retail stores, the bank that issued the credit card, and the payment processor, whoever is prepared the least to accept EMV payment cards will now be responsible to pay for the chargebacks. With this still being a relatively new practice it can still be confusing for some users. The folks at Counterpoint POS have put together an infographic below, debunking common myths regarding EMV credit card processing.
The last several years have shown us that, despite our best efforts to secure our networks, the bad guys are still getting in. Perimeter defenses continue to fail, and data continues to be stolen. What’s more, the perimeter isn’t as clear a notion as it once was. Consequently, IT security teams are beginning to change their thinking and focusing on data security. A key aspect of data security is encryption, but it must be implemented in a comprehensive manner. If not, data may not be secured in all locations, leading to a false notion of security that can end in theft.
