Top 10 security trends for 2019
Each year, DXC Technology’s security advisors, technologists and partners analyze emerging trends to help organizations plan and set priorities.
In 2019, enterprises must guard against many threats including targeted ransomware attacks, hardware vulnerabilities, increased international tension, and the growing practice of sextortion. Security teams must watch for emerging operational technology risks, resource constraints and government regulations.
Lessons from the nuclear age for operational technology and enterprise security
Warfare is once again being revolutionized: Threats are now physical and digital. Cyber weapons are being used against IT and operational technology (OT) to threaten critical infrastructure.
Nuclear weapons instigated major evolutions of warfare. Military theorists today wonder whether we can draw lessons from nuclear conflict strategies to help keep our critical national infrastructure — and our enterprises — safe from cyber attacks on OT.
How to create a culture of cyber resiliency
As organizations rely more heavily on technology such as cloud, attackers are becoming more sophisticated, more resourceful and better organized. The goal is not to prevent attacks, but to be able to survive them and maintain operations — to become cyber resilient. Cyber resiliency should be part of a holistic approach to security that takes all aspects of the business into consideration, from employees and partners to the board of directors. Improving security is not a one-time project, but a program of continuous improvement.
Rethink risk and enterprise security in a digital world
Digital transformation promises to deliver new business value but also introduces new security risks that demand equally new and innovative responses. Organizations on a digital transformation journey must make a parallel trip, one that integrates security and risk management into DevOps and Continuous Delivery (CD) processes. As organizations continue their digital transformations, the transformation of security and risk management must be an integral part of that journey.
10 steps to securing the internet of things
IoT presents a heightened security challenge. Security organizations must protect significantly more endpoints across the enterprise, and an IoT security breach could lead to immediate damage to IT and physical systems.
IoT underscores the need for today’s enterprises to focus on cyber resilience — the ability to keep transforming efficiently and effectively in the face of increased threats from nation-states, criminals, competitors and insiders.
Ransomware: To pay or not to pay
Ransomware is serious, damaging business. It is also like a game of chess: Enterprises must plan their strategy and make the best moves. Because there is no “right” answer, this paper outlines steps enterprises can take and what trade-offs they should assess when deciding whether or not to pay a ransomware demand.
FInd out how to understand the full spectrum of options, how interactions with extortionists may evolve and how to position your enterprise to withstand such attacks.
Putting on the right SOC to fit your security operations
Security operations centers (SOCs) bring together the resources needed to direct the defense of digital and even physical assets. As organizations embrace the latest digital technologies, SOCs are critical to enabling key business initiatives.
With cyber threats evolving and intensifying in scope and impact, organizations of all sizes are facing major decisions about how to cost-effectively manage security operations. Learn more in this paper.
Thriving safely in the age of digital identity management
Organizations engaged in digital transformation need a new approach if they are going to thrive in this new world. The bedrock principle for security is no longer about the “where.” It’s about the “who.”
Success requires a focus on digital identity management. Identity and access management (IAM) can effectively establish a logical perimeter that enables digital transformation.
How to overcome the security questions facing blockchain
While blockchain is best known as the foundation for cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin and Ethereum, many think the technology will emerge as the bedrock of a peer-to-peer economy, transforming industries in the process — that is, if the security of blockchain ecosystems can be ensured.
Overcoming the security questions discussed will help ensure the continued evolution of blockchain in the financial services industry and help it mature into a disruptor in others.
