How do we build digitally resilient organizations?
/by RedSealCSO Online | September 4, 2018
So, what does a digitally resistant organization look like? In a recent column, Ray Rothrock, a CEO who has written a book on Digital Resilience, says: “Instead of cowering behind a wall and hoping for the best, those who lead digitally resilient businesses ensure that they know the strengths, weaknesses, gaps and vulnerabilities of their networks.”
Five Tips For Building Digital Resilience Into Your Business Plan
/by RedSealChief Executive | September 3, 2018
By Ray Rothrock, RedSeal CEO
The security advisory firm Herjavec Group reports that cybercrime damages are set to cost businesses $6 trillion annually by 2021, with cybersecurity spending topping $1 trillion from 2017 to 2021. A trillion here, a trillion there … pretty soon you’re talking real money — more than enough to acknowledge that managing an organization’s cyber risk has truly become a CEO and Board-level responsibility.
It is essential today that enterprises build digital resilience into their business plans—and do so deep and wide.
Tip #1: Understand the difference between digital security and digital resilience.
Revealed: The cyber Achilles heel for large companies
/by RedSealCorporate Risk and Compliance | August 28, 2018
While a new survey from analytics firm FICO has found that the number of US companies with full-coverage cybersecurity insurance has skyrocketed from last year, 24% still reported that they did not have any cyber insurance. For those that remain uninsured, and the insurance companies with an eye on targeting these firms, a cybersecurity analytics platform has come up with a more effective way to price policies.
“From a cybersecurity perspective, when you’re an insurance company and you’re writing a policy for somebody, how do you charge them for it? We measure the risk and give them the metrics to charge for that policy,” said Steve Timmerman, VP of marketing and business development at RedSeal, which offers enterprise software that builds a model of a company’s network, identifies vulnerabilities, and provides a digital resiliency score that allows insurers to write a cyber premium based on that score.

Millions of businesses vulnerable to fax-based cyber attack
/by RedSealComputerWeekly | August 13, 2018
Ray Rothrock, chairman and CEO of security analytics firm RedSeal, said the Check Point research underlines the need for organisations to focus on resilience.
“We recommend that companies validate their segmentation policies and make sure there’s very limited access to their most valuable assets,” he said. “This isn’t a one-and-done exercise. Companies must remain vigilant, constantly monitoring all possible pathways within and between their network environments so they can quickly isolate a compromised device.
Check Point shows how faxes can be route into a company

Fax machines, which are part of many all-in-one printers, can be compromised over the telephone line and used to attack Windows PCs on the networks to which they are attached, researchers from security firm Check Point say.
The exploit was demonstrated on Sunday in a talk titled “what the Fax?” at the DEFCON security summit held in Las Vegas. A detailed technical explanation of the methods used is available here.

PM World Book Review: Digital Resilience

The subtitle grasped my attention, “Is your Company Ready for the Next Cyber Threat?” With the speed of change and the lack of international laws to detect and prosecute the criminals, my mind quickly responded, “I doubt it?”
This title addresses the rise in cybercrimes and every business, large and small are at risk. It helps law abiding business people peek inside the minds and tactics of international criminals to understand the threats, identify the weakness and effectively respond, no matter what it takes.
Russia’s Alternate Internet
/by RedSealNew York Magazine | July 13, 2018
By Dr. Mike Lloyd, RedSeal CTO
Russia has nearly completed an alternative to the Domain Name System — the common “phone book” of the internet that translates numerical IP addresses to readable text like “Amazon.com” and “NYMag.com.” When implemented, the DNS alternative could separate Russia and its allies from the rest of the connected internet — a possibility that, however remote, has experts worried about a “balkanization” of a global network.
Last November, the Russian Security Council announced its ambition to create an independent internet infrastructure for Russia and the other members of BRICS (Brazil, India, China, and South Africa). According to reports, the Russian government sought to create the alternative internet to protect itself from American and Western manipulation of internet services and avoid “possible external influence.” (Sound familiar?)
