Access Control

As rapid advances in technology move countries, institutions, and people closer together, they also shrink the distance between us and potential adversaries. Today’s organizations are at an ever increasing risk of having their sensitive data accessed by sophisticated and continuously evolving cyber attackers. In this segment of the RSA Advanced Threat Video Series, you’ll hear top leaders in the field of cyber security discuss the unique challenges of living in a virtually connected world. Discover why old security models are ineffective in today’s threat landscape and how to better protect your organization from an attack.

Everyone is a Cyber Attack Target Do you know: --What’s running on the endpoints and servers in your enterprise? --If you have malicious files hiding and running on your endpoints or servers? --The trustworthiness of the files on your systems? You may have already been targeted. Download this eBook today to understand how security and IT professionals – and governments worldwide – are becoming increasingly aware of the dangers advanced threats pose to their endpoints, servers, domain controllers and virtual environments and are taking control by utilizing a trust-based approach to detect and stop advanced threats that evade traditional security tools.

BYOD Security Scanning - the ability to assess smartphones, tablets and laptops for vulnerabilities, secure configurations and unprotected data at rest are vital for visualizing the entire security and compliance posture of an organization. BYOD environments are equally important as traditional servers and computers. This paper illustrates that all endpoints can now be scanned for threats regardless of where the device is physically located anytime and anywhere.

There are almost as many mobile devices in the world as there are people. Up to 95% of organizations have BYOD in one form or another. But who is checking all of these devices for vulnerabilities, compliance, configuration errors and what confidential data is stored on them? iScan Online does! Watch this short video to learn why your biggest threat may be right in your pocket. While we have spent millions locking down our servers and desktops, mobility has changed the rules. Learn how to get back in the game with BYOD Security Scanning.

With the gaining popularity of virtualization in today’s enterprise data centers, you need a virtual security solution that allows you to confidently adopt virtualization throughout your data center without compromising on your existing security postures.

Mobile devices continue to fight an inaccurate perception of not being as secure as traditional PCs, but a recent study suggests enterprises are investing more in mobile, and are making mobile security a high or critical priority in 2013. The Forrester Consulting study, “Mobility Helps Enterprises Enter a New Age,” was commissioned by Entrust Inc. to gain a better understanding of how mobile perception is changing for IT decision-makers in the enterprise.

SCADA-driven systems are found in all components of Critical National Infrastructure including energy power plants, electricity supply grids, chemical plants and other industrial systems. Where years ago these systems were connected via dial-up modem – with password security that at the time was highly resistant to attack – the current trend is to plug these devices into the Internet using a standard Ethernet connection – or worse yet, by WIFI or some other wireless protocol that lacks the encryption and authentication needed to prevent tampering. Thousands of SCADA-based systems accessible from the Internet have weak default privileged passwords “defending” them. Download this whitepaper to learn how to secure SCADA systems from cyber attacks.

Given the state of today’s security systems, most organizations are a long way from using these types of advanced technologies for security management. Security professionals need to get more value from the data already collected and analyzed. They also need a better understanding of both current issues and impending challenges related to data. Starting with a foundational set of data management and analytic capabilities enables organizations to effectively build and scale security management as the enterprise evolves to meet Big Data challenges.

Big Data techniques are seen as increasingly valuable by organizations seeking to maximize their security intelligence. Discover how RSA can help you analyze big data, protect your company, and save your organization time, money and its reputation.

New security threats demand a new approach to security management. Security teams need a security analytics architecture that can handle a much greater volume and wider scope of data than at present, not to mention provide them with tools to lead them quickly to the most pressing issues. They need threat intelligence, about the latest tools, techniques, and procedures in use by the attacker community, and the ability to track and manage the responses initiated as a result of the issues they identify

In this white paper security computer security analyst and risk management specialist Dr. Dan Geer, talks about the paradigm shift in investing security for digital information from network and servers to the exploding expansion of endpoints, mobile and virtual environments. The Verizon’s Data Breach Report contains a single number more important than all others: three quarters of all data losses are discovered by unrelated third parties, from which one can inevitably infer that the victim’s network and infrastructure security regimes were neither effective nor relevant. This paper gives undisputed relevancy to investing in security beyond your standard network and servers.

If you’re responsible for protecting digital information, you always face an uncertainty of never knowing where a threat can come from. And while an insider attack may well be rare, the consequence of an insider attack on the corporation’s data grows as fast as the data’s value grows. In a fully connected world, there are no private tragedies and so insider threat has truly come of age. In this white paper, Dr. Dan Geer, talks about the very real danger of insider threat and proposes successful strategies to help mitigate the risk of Insider Threat.

The old proverb states, revenge is a dish best served cold. Because of this, WikiLeaks or other sites of hactivism, while for the time being, seem to have died down in activity, should never be disregarded or viewed as a medium that has lost its effectiveness. In this white paper Dr. Dan Geer explains a scope of value on protecting data and the severity of insider threat and how to combat this potential threat, which surprisingly includes sharing data.

For the fifth year, we investigate the state of continuing education within the security industry, asking a range of experts about the value of certifications, and what those in leadership positions must know. Being up to date with current trends and developments is crucial from a knowledge development perspective, our experts find. But, communicating with the C-suite to procure the budget necessary for an effective program is equally as important. Also, we query a number of colleges and universities designated by the NSA and DHS as Centers of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance to tell us about their programs.
