TLS machine identity-related outages—from expired, misconfigured or unknown TLS certificates—are the Achilles heel of digital transformation projects. Do it wrong and perfectly functioning applications and services can be rendered inoperable. Worse still the security controls you rely on, from traffic inspection...

The number of major health data breaches posted to the federal tally so far in 2022 - and the total number of individuals affected by those breaches - has surged in recent weeks as reports of large hacking incidents continue to flow in to regulators.
Yet another ransomware-wielding group of criminals has hit an organization in the health sector. This time, it's cybercrime group RansomEXX, which has been trumpeting an attack against the Scottish Association for Mental Health. The crime gang says it has stolen more than 12GB of data from SAMH.
The integration of third-party components and software is an increasingly critical area of security risk that needs more attention from medical device manufacturers, says Anura Fernando, global head of medical device security at safety certification firm UL.
As the Ukrainian military resists Russian advances toward its major population centers, its IT security teams are contending with record cyber incidents - although the same is true of their eastern neighbors, with Russia reporting "unprecedented" cyberattacks on its networks.
If Russia uses hack attacks to support its invasion, would Western governments want to immediately attribute those attacks or disruptions? Enter a Thursday alert from the U.S. government warning that it is "aware of possible threats to U.S. and international satellite communication networks."
The pandemic has raised the ante significantly for the attack surface and the level of insider threats facing healthcare sector entities, according to Dave Bailey, vice president of security services, and attorney Andrew Mahler, vice president of privacy and compliance, of consultancy CynergisTek.
Improve visibility and reduce risk with modern endpoint security
It’s estimated that by 2023 there will be 29.3 billion networked devices worldwide. Combined with evolving threats, the proliferation of endpoints, work-from-anywhere environments and steady migration to the cloud, perimeter protection has become more...
Why full visibility leads to stronger endpoint protection
As endpoints proliferate and organizations move more applications, infrastructure and data into the cloud, lack of visibility and scalability poses a serious challenge to security and IT teams in charge of protecting endpoints.
Modern endpoint security is...
59% of global security decision-makers say that their firm’s sensitive data was breached at least once in the past year.
Meanwhile, distributed and disconnected security tools hamper teams’ ability to detect fast-moving threats and stop breaches. Now more than ever, cybersecurity professionals need full,...
It is critical for medical device manufacturers to take a threat modeling approach early in a product's design stage, say MITRE medical device cybersecurity experts Margie Zuk and Penny Chase, co-authors of the recently released Playbook for Threat Modeling Medical Devices commissioned by the FDA.
To survive in today’s cyber threat landscape, security teams need the right resources paired with the appropriate strategy. Many organizations turn to managed security services (MSS) and managed detection and response (MDR) services, but many of the providers aren’t delivering the outcomes that clients had been...
Healthcare sector entities increasingly need to implement a zero trust approach with their security, says federal adviser Erik Decker, CISO of Intermountain Healthcare. Zero trust, he says, integrates "a lot of different architecture and systems … that have to work in concert with each other."
Cyber attackers have become more innovative when targeting privileged accounts. Threat actors commonly target privileged endpoints such as that supporting Microsoft Windows, MacOS and Linux administrator accounts. Once attackers gain access to those privileged accounts, they can traverse the network and take over...
