With the fast-growing problem and increasingly sophisticated threats of cyber security and data breaches, litigation and other related cases continue to hound the landscape. These lawsuits have brought large numbers of damages to individuals and industries, such as consumers and financial institutions over the years.
Security initiatives have historically been driven by compliance mandates and a healthy dose of fear. But as threats continue to become more sophisticated, so must our efforts in thwarting them. Organizations that used to think “we’re the small company, attackers go for the big organizations with more valuable data” have seen an increase in breaches as attackers shift their focus from the large, heavily secured organizations, to the often easier to breach small, mid, and emerging enterprise businesses. Automation in attack techniques has made attack targeting more random and democratic, and less protected businesses are experiencing disproportionate impacts. Shifting from compliance based security to aligning with best practices, specifically the Center for Internet Security (CIS) Top 20 Critical Security Controls, is a great way for an organization of any size to prioritize and progress their security posture.
As threats of cybercrime continue to rise and become more aggressive, the need for effective and efficient cybersecurity platforms has never been more crucial than now. With the current state of cyber-attacks nowadays, companies need to become smarter in planning their protection programs. Response-based solutions are no longer enough.
Today’s leaders in cybersecurity continue to look for ways to protect organizations from the increasingly sophisticated cybersecurity attacks. From the antiquated belief of "trust, but verify," the security world seems to be warming up to the new principle of zero trust IT. Under the latter approach, nothing inside or outside of an organization is being trusted. The zero trust model cuts the time spent in tracking false positives, thus, enabling organizations to increase their productivity.
Data breaches in the U.S. have shown no signs of slowing down in the last several years, neither have the wave of class action cases associated with these. Recent breaches include some of the largest companies such as LifeLabs, Yahoo, Equifax, and Google LLC. Such breaches, as well as the infringements incorporated with it, can impose tremendous burdens on banks and credit card companies that have to respond to a flood of fraud claims and canceled cards.
Staying compliant with the evolving regulatory landscape of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) has always been challenging. With the passage of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for the fiscal year 2021, increased scrutiny and heightened penalties are expected. Amidst these changes, financial institutions also grapple with imminent credit and liquidity risks which, if not mitigated, could significantly affect operations and revenue.
Data governance is a crucial tool to ensure proper management and protection of data assets within an organization. It establishes precise methods to standardize business procedures, creates clear internal rules for changing processes, helps ensure risk management and optimization, and supports compliance with privacy and security regulations.
Today’s businesses are significantly maximizing the potentials of cloud-based workforce mobility tools for improved productivity and more advanced workforce management. However, the increase of users, devices, and applications accessing outside the enterprise perimeter has resulted in a rise of cyberattacks and data breaches.
