FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Risk Management
Proper evaluation of business risk requires insight into the likelihood that a vulnerability will be exploited, and if exploited, how that vulnerability could impact the company on a macro level.
If an InfoSec team lacks the requisite capabilities, bandwidth, and/or resources to do so, it may inhibit the progress and accuracy of the investigation.
Given the uncertain future of dark web marketplaces and the clandestine nature of insider activity, specialized insider marketplaces are emerging.
It’s imperative that security practitioners acknowledge the often-confusing nature of insider threat, seek to dispel misconceptions, and provide clear, accurate insight whenever possible.
Threat modeling is an iterative process that needs to be updated whenever there are substantial changes to either assets or threats.
Securing applications and understanding vulnerabilities in code and IT systems will always be important. But today security pros must open their eyes to a much bigger picture.
With so many intelligence teams blinded by vast amounts of data and an overwhelmingly complex threat landscape, establishing the right intelligence requirements (IRs) can be challenging.
There are quite a few ways in which enterprises can look to properly evaluate various Vendor Risk Management (VRM) offerings and differentiate between them.
While a contract, distributed, partner-oriented workforce and supply chain can create serious risks to your organization, careful implementation of visibility and data protection strategies can help you mitigate many of the risks.
Before finalizing a vendor relationship, it’s crucial to construct a response plan in preparation for any future incidents the vendor might experience.
