Webinar: Backup vs. Ransomware - 5 Requirements for Backup Success

Ransomware is the universal threat. No matter an organization's data center location, or its size, it can be devastated by a ransomware attack. While most organizations focus on the periphery, they also need to be prepared for a breach, something that ransomware is particularly adept. In case of a breach, an advanced backup and disaster recovery solution can ensure safe and timely recovery of data without paying ransom. In this webinar join experts from Storage Switzerland and Micro Focus as they discuss the impact of ransomware and the core features of a backup solution that can mitigate the associated risks.

Jimmy Sze

CyberArk is an information security company focused on privileged account security. They help companies protect their most sensitive information and infrastructure by securing privileged accounts. The document outlines best practices for securing privileged accounts at different maturity levels - from baseline to highly effective. It recommends identifying and reducing privileged accounts, enforcing least privilege, and automating password management. For highly effective security, it suggests multi-factor authentication, privileged session recording, and anomaly detection to prevent cyber threats targeting privileged credentials.

Webinar: 10 Reasons Why Backup Breaks and How to Fix It

Annual OktCyberfest 2019

Fahad Al-Hasan

The document outlines key points about improving cyber security maturity through effective privileged access management (PAM). It discusses how most cyber attacks involve compromised privileged credentials. A PAM maturity model is presented with 4 levels - from analog/basic up to advanced/intelligent - measuring an organization's PAM practices and risk level. The goal is for organizations to progress through the levels by implementing stronger PAM strategies like automated discovery of privileged accounts, password vaulting, multi-factor authentication, privileged session monitoring and restricting use of local administrators. This helps reduce the attack surface and risk of breaches involving privileged credentials.

Agile Secure Development

Bosnia Agile

How to make the agile team work with security requirements? To get secure coding practices into agile development is often hard work. A security functional requirement might be included in the sprint, but to get secure testing, secure architecture and feedback of security incidents working is not an easy talk for many agile teams. In my role as Scrum Master and security consultant I have developed a recipe of 7 steps that I will present to you. Where we will talk about agile secure development, agile threat modelling, agile security testing and agile workflows with security. Many of the steps can be made without costly tools, and I will present open source alternatives for all steps. This to make a test easier and to get a lower startup of your teams security process.

2.6 backup and recovery

mrmwood

The document discusses backup strategies and recovery procedures. It begins by asking questions about backup strategies, including the types of backups (full, differential, incremental), backup media, testing backups, and developing backup procedures. It then discusses the importance of data backups, noting that many organizations that lose their data go out of business. Key aspects of developing an effective backup strategy include assessing risks, testing recovery procedures, and ensuring continuity of services. RAID systems and disaster recovery plans (DRP) can help with the backup strategy and continuity of services.

Tlpi chapter 38 writing secure privileged programs

Shu-Yu Fu

This document discusses guidelines for securely writing privileged programs. It recommends operating with least privilege by dropping privileges when they are not needed and reacquiring them only as required. It also recommends confining the process using capabilities or chroot jails, being careful of signals and race conditions, avoiding buffer overflows, and checking return values of system calls. The overall aim is to minimize the chances of a privileged program being subverted and to minimize potential damage if subversion occurs.

CISSP Week 13

Pace IT at Edmonds Community College

This document discusses various software development methodologies and their security implications: - Waterfall model is slow but more secure since changes are planned in advance. Iterative models are faster but less secure due to constant changes. - Structured programming, spiral model, cleanroom, and iterative development approaches are described. Iterative development requires strong change control. - Prototyping, rapid application development, and joint analysis development are types of iterative development. - Databases must provide transaction persistence, fault tolerance, access controls, and prevent inference and aggregation attacks. Object-oriented programming improves code reuse and security through encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism. Web applications are vulnerable to injection, authentication failures,

Regardless of which answer you choose, today’s ransomware attacks zero in on your accessing most important, critical, sensitive, and valuable data. New storage protection concepts like cyberstorage offer organizations an ability to prevent the success of ransomware attacks, but not everyone has cyberstorage today… or do they?
