As the pace of technology innovation continues to quicken - including the ability to make payments via everything from Alexa to Facebook Messenger - risk-based security is imperative to maintain a frictionless customer experience, says Tim Ayling of Kaspersky Lab.
Networks are constantly evolving - and so are their attack surfaces. IT security pros must now contend with digital assets like cloud platforms, application containers, web applications, IoT devices, and industrial control systems. For those in critical infrastructure industries, the stakes are even...
This research report examines the difference in time between when a public exploit for a vulnerability is published
and when users actively assess it. These two events represent the first move the attacker and defender make.
The premise of this paper is that this delta is an indicative metric in determining Cyber...
As the modern attack surface rapidly expands, companies must get the basics right.
