The Tech Collective’s Post

Lots of chatter around our #GOVCON industry about how a small #CyberSecurity patch could lead to such widespread operational failure. What about #ZeroTrust? Think about the sprawling connectivity of every downstream partner in the Cyber kill chain. How you build it, is just as important as how you defend it. SMS Data Products Group, Inc. builds quickly and securely, so you can focus on the mission.

Cyber attacks targeting individuals, businesses, and governments have risen drastically as online attacks cost the global economy over $8 Trillion in 2023. Customer or user data has evolved into a powerful tool for businesses to make crucial decisions, attracting the attention of cyber criminals all over. “If you put a key under the mat for the cops, a burglar can find it, too. Criminals are using every technology tool to hack into people’s accounts. If they know there’s a key hidden somewhere, they won’t stop until they find it.”  - Tim Cook, CEO of Apple We covered the largest data breaches in recent history and the financial implications they led to.  To learn more about these breaches, read the full article here title:  https://lnkd.in/gWFtnKHg #cybersecurity #infosec #datasecurity #cyberthreats, #cyberaware #cyberdefense #cybercrime Google MGM Resorts International Progress

In 2024 everyone is hyper focused on #AI. At HP, our HP Wolf Security team sat down recently and shared how AI will impact #cybersecurity. While hackers will have yet another tool at their disposal, cyber defenders will have AI in their toolbox, and we expect 2024 to be the year of #regulation. As Steve Inch said, “we’ll see manufacturers shifting to a secure-by-design mentality, with out-of-the-box capabilities becoming the industry standard.” Read more about how #cyber teams can respond to these challenges here: https://lnkd.in/egR_MUCQ

Incident response top tips... ⚠ Stick to what you know. Speculating that it's an act of cyber war, squirrels, or DNS helps nobody. ⚠ Don't use someone else's misfortune as a sales tactic. It's tacky. ⚠ Test and verify any unofficial fixes or workarounds. Rushing things could cause more damage. ⚠ People will be under massive pressure to get things fixed. Give them time, space, and support. #BeKind #CyberSecurity #CrowdStrike

Dell Investigates Potential Data Breach Impacting Over 10,000 Employees Dell has confirmed that they are investigating claims from a threat actor known as "grep," who alleges a recent data breach exposing the personal information of over 10,000 Dell employees and partners. The stolen data reportedly includes unique identifiers, full names, employee statuses, and internal IDs. The breach allegedly occurred in September 2024, with the data being sold on a hacking forum for as little as $0.30. This is not the first time Dell has faced security concerns this year, as they experienced another breach that compromised 49 million customer records through an API exploit.   Read the full article at: https://lnkd.in/eAK2x_E8 This incident highlights the importance of robust cybersecurity practices to protect sensitive information. #CyberSecurity #DataBreach #Hacking #DataSecurity

We started Keyri with a singular goal to protect customer accounts from all takeover and fraudulent activity. To do that, we need to cover every single attack vector, whether it’s something prevalent today or a new threat on the horizon—like session token theft, credential phishing, malware and trojan threats, code tampering, and more. Recent incidents, like the one shared below, show how attacks are getting more sophisticated at scale. I wanted to share that we’ve been tackling these kinds of threats head-on. For instance, our defense against session token theft has been in place for a year now, and it offers solid protection without an overbearing architecture that degrades performance or increases latency at the device and network level. This is crucial, especially since performance issues are a big hurdle for widespread adoption of certain security standards such as the one Google is proposing. Overall rather than putting the onus on the customer and creating more friction, we need to innovate and adapt to new threats and keep customers safe through seamless and behind-the-scenes security measures. #Cybersecurity #SessionTokenTheft #MFA #AI #CryptoSecurity

Think hackers are all about stealing data and causing chaos? Think again! There's a whole world of cybersecurity out there, and hackers come in two main flavors: White Hats and Black Hats. ➡️White Hats: The Good Guys of Cyberspace 👍🏻Like ethical ninjas, they use their hacking skills for good! 👍🏻They identify weaknesses in computer systems (with permission) before bad guys can exploit them. 👍🏻White Hats work for companies, governments, or even as independent security consultants. 👍🏻They're the reason your online accounts and data are safe. ➡️Black Hats: The Destructive Force 👎🏻These are the hackers you see in movies, breaking into systems and causing mayhem. 👎🏻They exploit vulnerabilities to steal data, disrupt operations, or even plant malware. 👎🏻Black Hats can be motivated by money, revenge, or just the thrill of the challenge. Anyone can be a hacker – it's about the skills and how you use them. White Hats use their knowledge to build a safer digital world, while Black Hats wreak havoc. #cybersecurity #ethicalhacking #whitehat #blackhat #staysafe #informationsecurity
