The practice of disclosing proof-of-concept exploits has long caused a debate in the security community. Just this past week, a slew of PoC exploits were published for various vulnerabilities, including ones for a recently patched crypto-spoofing vulnerability found by the National Security Agency and reported to Microsoft; and for critical flaws impacting the Cisco Data Center Network Manager tool for managing network platforms and switches.
Faster payments are the new reality in more than 40 countries, and this innovation is benefiting consumers and businesses alike. Criminals are also enjoying the speed and non-refutable nature of these transfers, and in many deployments faster payments quickly translates to faster fraud.
As organizations increase their digital footprint across numerous third-party and fourth-party relationships, their risk of downstream data breaches multiplies. During this webinar Kelly White, CEO of RiskRecon, Wade Baker, Co-Founder at the Cyentia Institute, and David Severski, lead data scientist from the Cyentia Institute, discuss the findings from a new research report that analyzed over 800 multi-party security incidents to determine how organizations were impacted from the ripple of a security event.
