breach response

Data breaches continuing to make the headlines and enterprises are no longer questioning "if" a breach will occur, but "when." With the organization's data assets and reputation at stake, having a breach response plan in place is becoming increasingly important. Join security thought leaders and experts for an interactive Q&A to learn more about: - Today’s cybersecurity threat landscape - The true costs of a breach - Preventing breaches: Key factors to consider - Why early breach detection is critical - How to develop an effective incident response plan and get C-Suite buy-in - How to keep your company secure in 2019"

The operation of your organization depends, at least in part, on its data. You can avoid fines and remediation costs, protect your organization’s reputation and employee morale, and maintain business continuity by building a capability to detect and respond to incidents effectively. The simplicity of the incident response process can be misleading. We recommend tabletop exercises as an important step in pressure-testing your program.

Research conducted by The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), sponsored by Oracle, provides answers. The results show that a proactive security strategy backed by a fully engaged C-suite and board of directors reduced the growth of cyber-attacks and breaches by 53% over comparable firms. These findings were compiled from responses by 300 firms, across multiple industries, against a range of attack modes and over a two-year period from February 2014 to January 2016. The lessons are clear. As cyber-attackers elevate their game, the response must be an enterprise solution. Only C-suites and boards of directors marshal the authority and resources to support a truly enterprise-wide approach. In sum, proactive cyber-security strategies, supported by senior management, can cut vulnerability to cyber-attack in half.

As damaging breaches continue to occur, more organizations are considering endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions to address the incidents that aren't being handled adequately by their existing defenses. However, EDR solutions come in a wide variety of implementations and can vary significantly in scope and efficacy — choosing the best solution can be challenging. This white paper, “Endpoint Detection and Response: Automatic Protection Against Advanced Threats,” explains the importance of EDR, and describes how various approaches to EDR differ, providing guidance that can help you choose the product that's right for your organization. Read this white paper to learn: What makes EDR such a valuable addition to an organization's security arsenal and why finding the right approach is critical How the “EDR maturity model” can help you accurately evaluate vendor claims and choose the solution that best fits your organization’s needs How the CrowdStrike® EDR solution empowers organ

Privileged credentials have served as a major attack vector in the successful execution of many breaches. Protecting privileged access is an imperative to successfully defend an organization from a breach and is a core requirement of multiple compliance regimes. CA Privileged Access Management helps drive IT security and compliance risk reduction and improves operational efficiency by enabling privileged access defense in depth—providing broad and consistent protection of sensitive administrative credentials, management of privileged identity access and control of administrator activity.

With breaches today often going undetected for months or years, many organizations must now accept the very real possibility that intruders have already compromised their systems, regardless of the organization’s security posture. Today, compromises are measured in minutes and the speed of response is measured in days. Enterprises the world over are realizing that to close the gap, they need to evolve their security operations from being a largely reactive unit (waiting for alerts that indicate a threat) to being proactively on the hunt for new attacks that have evaded detection. When an incident does occur, the speed of your response will dictate the extent to which you can minimize the impact. In the case of a malicious attack, it takes on average over 7 months to identify a breach, and nearly two and a half additional months to contain the incident. Every second counts, and while the clock is ticking, the cost of the breach is rapidly increasing as well. Breaches that take over 3

Despite increased awareness and focus on defending against targeted attacks from both business and security leaders, organizations continue to be breached and suffer the consequences. Many of today’s security investments are simply not aligned to defend against these targeted threat vectors. Advanced threat detection and response should not be a point solution but rather a combination of technologies and core competencies. Detecting and responding to advanced threats should involve tight integration of multiple security technologies, network analysis and visibility (NAV) tools, the ability to automatically generate content such as security rules and signatures, context on attacker history, and overall customization and flexibility to ensure that the solution is fine-tuned for your specific IT environment.

On the 13th February 2017, the Privacy Amendment (Notifiable Data Breaches) Act was passed in the Australian Parliament, introducing a mandatory notification regime. This bill commences on the 23rd February 2018 and will require organisations to notify data subjects and regulators in the event of an “eligible” data breach. An “eligible data breach” will occur where: ? There is unauthorised access to, or unauthorised disclosure of, the information; and ? A reasonable person would conclude that the access or disclosure would be likely to result in serious harm to any of the individuals to whom the information relates The amended legislation provides greater clarity to Australian citizens about the privacy of their personal information and will affect Australian companies as well as international organisations with Australian operations. It also means that businesses must carefully think about the practical issues related to data breach responses and the disruptive consequences of any un

For most financial institutions, it’s no longer a question of ‘if’ but ‘when’ they’ll be attacked.. If you’re like most financial institutions, you have controls that identify breaches, but need proper procedures that’ll enable you to recover from such an event. In this presentation at the CUNA Technology Council Conference, Tom Neclerio, BAE Systems’ VP of Cyber Consulting Services, discusses the current threats across the financial marketplace and explores strategies for implementing a successful incident response program as outlined in the FFIEC’s cyber resilience guidance.

The security information and event management (SIEM) market is defined by the customer's need to analyze event data in real time for the early detection of targeted attacks and data breaches, and to collect, store, analyze, investigate and report on event data for incident response, forensics and regulatory compliance. The vendors included in our Magic Quadrant analysis have products designed for this purpose, and they actively market and sell these technologies to the security buying center.

It only takes one stolen laptop, one employee’s USB stick, one hacker, one virus, or one careless error to compromise your company’s reputation and revenue. The threat of data breach is real and it’s critical that your company is prepared. A thorough plan that can be executed quickly is essential to comply with relevant regulations, maintain customer loyalty, protect your brand and get back to business as soon as possible.

How you handle a data breach says a great deal about your company’s integrity. LifeLock Breach Response Services works with corporations to develop proactive, pre-negotiated strategies and breach response plans to stay ahead of a crisis.

This report examines a wide range of business costs, including expense outlays for detection, escalation, notification, and after-the-fact (ex-post) response of a data security breach.

How do we get more visibility into attacks across our environments, improve our response, and reduce response time? SANS Analyst, James Tarala, provides insight on the solution by automating functions that should be automated and connecting the dots between detection systems and response. Connecting these dots and applying intelligence provides responders rich context into the observed behaviors for taking action. Integrating these processes improves accuracy, while reducing time, manpower, and costs involved in detecting and managing events. This white paper explores how to achieve this.

The way attackers are going after corporate data and infrastructure these days means that it’s not a matter of if, but when you’ll be forced to buy a ticket for the post-breach rollercoaster. But a little preparation and planning can go a long way toward making the ride as manageable and inexpensive as possible. This eBook walks you through how to get started on planning and executing an incident response for your business.

Data loss, theft or breach is inevitable, but backup assures recovery, continuity and rapid response. Endpoint data backup is at the core of an enterprise data security strategy.
