Trade group pushes voluntary cybersecurity standard for defense contractors
/by RedSealThe Washington Post | December 13, 2018
With Kimberly Baker, RedSeal Senior Vice President and GM Public Sector
As the U.S. military tries to ensure its military assets are as secure as possible against cyberattack, the U.S. defense industry is gathering behind a new set of standards to spot cybersecurity laggards within its own supply chain.
The Aerospace Industries Association (AIA), an Arlington-based trade association that lobbies on behalf of defense contractors, on Tuesday released a set of voluntary standards designed to help U.S. aerospace companies ensure the weapons systems they make for the U.S. military are secure from hackers.
Does Improving Cybersecurity Begin with Improving the Acquisitions Process?
/by RedSealGovernment Technology Insider | December 11, 2018
With Kimberly Baker, RedSeal Senior Vice President and GM Public Sector
The ability to secure federal data, networks, and assets is impacted by the ability of agency cyber leaders to access required technology. They need to continually respond to well-resourced adversaries that are constantly evolving the mechanisms of attack.
Because of the acquisitions process, requests to upgrade existing cyber defenses or acquire the tools that can keep pace with this constantly evolving threat environment can take months if not years. During that time – from request to approval and deployment – critical systems and data are vulnerable to a breach.
Scanning for Flaws, Scoring for Security

“You can, of course, establish some important things about the quality of a building from a photograph, but it’s no substitute for really being able to inspect it from the inside,” Dr. Mike Lloyd told Dark Reading regarding the Chamber/FICO announcement in October.
7 Common Breach Disclosure Mistakes
/by RedSealDark Reading | December 7, 2018
When a breach happens, speed and clarity are vital, adds Mike Lloyd, CTO at RedSeal. Organizations that have fared badly after a breach have always been the entities that mishandled the disclosure, took too long to disclose, miscommunicated the details, or tried to cover up the issues, he says.
“There is always a surprise factor when you realize someone has broken in, but the better you know your own organization, the faster you can respond,” Lloyd says.

Bouncing Back After a Breach: A Q&A with Dr. Mike Lloyd of RedSeal
/by RedSealGovernment Technology Insider | November 13, 2018
With Dr. Mike Lloyd, RedSeal CTO
While preventing a cyberattack is often the sole focus of many security strategies, the reality is, your organization is likely to suffer a breach or other disruption to network operations. How you prepare for an inevitable break-in can make all the difference. The answer lies in cyber resilience.
That’s the key message from Dr. Mike Lloyd, Chief Technology Officer for RedSeal. Lloyd says that organizations who believe they have fully protected themselves from cyber threats are missing the point. Instead, planning and preparing for “what can possibly go wrong” can help prevent the worst and get you back up and running faster and with much less impact to your operations and your users.
Cyber resilience: not just bouncing back, but a strategy for effective cyber defense
/by RedSealGovernment Technology Insider | November 8, 2018
With Dr. Mike Lloyd, RedSeal CTO
Most discussions on cybersecurity focus on prevention, but not cyber defense. But, the unfortunate reality is, some attacks will be successful no matter how well you’ve protected your networks. The question then becomes, just how quickly can you get back online and back to business?
For the Government Technology Insider podcast, we asked Dr. Mike Lloyd, Chief Technology Officer for RedSeal about how to achieve “digital resilience” – the ability to prepare for and recover from a cyber attack.

Unlike the game Whack-a-Mole, where the object is to clobber a mole as it pops its head out of a hole, cyber threats are becoming more targeted and harder to whack, said Ray Rothrock, CEO of RedSeal, and author of the book, Digital Resilience: Is Your Company Ready for the Next Cyber Threat? on Monday’s episode 55 of Task Force 7 Radio. Rothrock was the guest of host George Rettas, the president and CEO of Task Force 7 Radio and Task Force 7 Technologies.

Using cyber insurance to run virtuous circles around cyber risk

By Dr. Mike Lloyd, Chief Technology Officer
In 2016, the Ponemon Institute, which conducts independent research on privacy, data protection and information security policy, concluded that each of the 383 companies it surveyed had a “26% probability of a material data breach involving 10,000 lost or stolen records” within the “next 24 months”. Work this out over the long term, not for two years but for the projected life of your business and you must accept the certainty of data breach just as you accept the certainty of death and taxes. Breaches will happen. They will happen to you.
