Cyber Security Hub: How Digitally Resilient Is Your Company?
/by RedSealCyber Security Hub | November 7, 2018
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.

With Ray Rothrock, Chief Executive Officer
Ray Rothrock, the CEO of Redseal and Board Member of cyber security incubator Team 8 appears on Episode #55 of Task Force 7 Radio to talk about his new book, “Digital Resilience – Is Your Company Ready for the Next Cyber Threat” and why Digital Resilience is the only way to win the Cyber Security battle we are all engaged in on a daily basis.
Using cyber insurance to run virtuous circles around cyber risk
/by RedSealComputer Fraud & Security Magazine | October 2018
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.
Cyber Hygiene And Digital Resilience To Withstand A Cyber Attack
/by RedSealITSP Magazine | October 25, 2018
By Wayne Lloyd, RedSeal Federal CTO
After both the first and second Gulf wars, nation states such as North Korea, Iran, China and others came to the same conclusion: under no circumstances get into a shooting war with the United States military. The sole superpower in the world had a military so advanced and superior on the battlefield it left little doubt about the outcome.
CDM Designed to Help Federal Agencies Understand Risk Posture and Become Digitally Resilient
/by RedSealGovernment Technology Insider | October 24, 2018
The goal of the Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) Program is for all civilian agencies included in the program under the Chief Financial Officers’ (CFO) Act to feed data to the federal government-wide cybersecurity threat dashboard. With each individual agency’s information compiled, the dashboard consolidates threat information from individual agency feeds to give an overall understanding of the cyber risks facing civilian agencies and enables them to prioritize the most critical issues.
Is AI Resilient Enough for Security?
/by RedSealSIGNAL Magazine | October 22, 2018
By Dr. Mike Lloyd, RedSeal CTO
Machines need to be hard to fool and reliable under pressure.
Artificial intelligence can be surprisingly fragile. This is especially true in cybersecurity, where AI is touted as the solution to our chronic staffing shortage.
It seems logical. Cybersecurity is awash in data, as our sensors pump facts into our data lakes at staggering rates, while wily adversaries have learned how to hide in plain sight. We have to filter the signal from all that noise. Security has the trifecta of too few people, too much data and a need to find things in that vast data lake. This sounds ideal for AI.
Resilient regulation can help end the tech-consumer stalemate
/by RedSealThe Hill | October 21, 2018
By Ray Rothrock, RedSeal CEO
The reason for the absence of meaningful dialogue and meaningful movement is that the two sides persist in choosing the wrong adjectives. They argue over preemptive federal legislation versus state legislation. They fight over tough legislation versus soft legislation.
What they should do is discard all of these modifiers and instead embrace, together, just one type of legislation: resilient. We need privacy regulation that promotes the resilience of data privacy and security. And we need it whether we run Google and Facebook or use Google and Facebook.
FICO & US Chamber of Commerce Score Cyber-Risk Across 10 Sector
/by RedSealDark Reading | October 16, 2018
Media, telecom, and technology firms are far more likely to experience a data breach in the near future than organizations in sectors including energy, construction, and transportation.
A score “taken from the outside looking in is similar to rating the fire risk to a building based on a photograph from across the street,” says Mike Lloyd, CTO of RedSeal. “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.”
If You Protect Everything, Are You Protecting Anything?
/by RedSealGovernment Technology Insider | October 12, 2018
With Nate Cash, Senior Network Security Engineer
For decades, cybersecurity professionals have been tasked with protecting organizational IT assets, whether hardware, software, systems, or data. But have they been setting priorities for cybersecurity?
This is a monumental task, especially when the technology environment not only continues to change but is accelerating – just look at the spread of the Internet of Things. IT folks may be told to protect “everything,” but they know it’s an impossible task. They don’t have unlimited resources, after all.
In particular, organizations suffer from a skills gap.
