Prevent The Inevitable Data Breach

Today, SafeNet released the State of the Data Breach survey which surveyed hundreds of U.S. enterprise security professionals. The survey asked for views on current information security measures and how likely their organization would suffer a data breach. About 2/3 of respondents said they will be the victim of a data breach in the next 3 years. This is not a surprising finding since large and small organizations alike are getting breached. There are...

With the recent revelations that Chinese hackers infiltrated both The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, I thought it was time to look into password security again. The hackers were monitoring the newspaper’s China coverage and wanted to know what reporters were involved. The hackers were after employee passwords so they could access email accounts and other resources. Both organizations claimed they only accessed emails and there was no further damage, but...

I recently read an interesting article in CloudAve titled, “Sure Dropbox is Potentially Insecure, but does it Matter?” The article highlights the trend of corporate users bypassing IT Security and exchanging files with co-workers and external third parties. They researched the types of corporate staff that use Dropbox and other file sharing services to exchange information. The article goes on to state that they believe the majority of the files are not confidential and...

Organizations are getting very serious about how they react to a data breach of confidential information. On January 10, 2013, an employee of a contractor who processes Medicaid prescription transactions lost a USB drive with about 6000 patients’ names, Medicaid identification number, age and recent prescription drug use history. Less than a week later, she was fired. The organization affected was the Utah Department of Health. It uses Goold Health Systems to process pharmacy...

Most of the data breaches in the news are from large companies like Sony and Zappos, who collectively had almost 150 million records compromised in 2011 and 2012. Most of the actual data breaches are from smaller companies or compromise fewer records. Unfortunately like all statistics, if you or your company are affected, it doesn’t matter the size of the breach of company. You are at risk. Two smaller but significant events occurred recently...

It’s the start of a new year and time to review all the passwords you use. I was prompted to do this by an incident where I think an account of mine was hacked. Unfortunately we all have to use passwords to get into our computers, smartphones, tablets and websites we use. Security experts are working on better authentication systems using biometrics, open authentication systems like OAuth, OpenID and others, but widespread adoption is...

As the holidays wind down for 2012 and we spend time with our families, many of us will use our mobile phones and tablets for everything. According to recent research by Gartner, businesses and consumers will buy about 1.2 billion smartphones and tablets in 2013 to add to what’s already out there. We all use mobile devices because they are convenient and provide fast access to information. They are convenient for accessing documents, searching...

It must be the holiday season because the spam in my Inbox has gone up tenfold. Every spammer on earth (and maybe some from elsewhere, who knows) is getting into the act. There are the usual deals on Viagra and weight loss, but the ones that sound like legitimate bargains are the ones to worry about. Just today I got one from zBiddy-Deals. I opened it and it looks like some great deals on...

You would think that all important company information must be in databases, given how many of them are in the world. CRM systems, ERP, finance applications, HR systems and millions of websites all use databases to store their data. Yet the largest majority of important information is still inside documents. A lot of companies use content management systems (CMS) to store these documents and get some control over them. Many of us store them...

Just when you’ve thought you’ve heard it all we read about the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade confetti containing confidential information from the Nassau County Police Department. Not only did the confetti contain social security numbers and arrest records but partial information on President Obama’s and Mitt Romney’s recent motorcade through Manhattan. Such a lack of control of confidential paper documents should not shock anyone these days. Case in point is an article published in...
