The New Cybersecurity Challenges for a typical Organization - Is a Solution in Sight?

 Main challenges and related solutions for today's businesses in Cyber Security

  • The increasing sophistication of cyber attacks. Cyber attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated and are designed to target specific vulnerabilities in systems and networks. This makes it more difficult for businesses to defend themselves against these attacks.
  • The growing number of connected devices. The increasing number of connected devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and wearables, is creating a larger attack surface for cyber criminals. These devices are often not as secure as traditional computers and are more susceptible to attack.
  • The shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals. The demand for cybersecurity professionals is growing rapidly, but the supply of qualified workers is not keeping pace. This shortage makes it difficult for businesses to find the talent they need to protect themselves from cyberattacks.


Related solutions:

  • Invest in cybersecurity training for employees. Cybersecurity training can help employees to identify and avoid cybersecurity threats. This can help to reduce the risk of a cyberattack occurring in the first place.
  • Implement security technologies. Security technologies, such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and antivirus software, can help to protect businesses from cyberattacks.
  • Have a security incident response plan in place. A security incident response plan can help businesses to respond quickly and effectively to a cyberattack. This can help to mitigate the damage caused by the attack and minimize the impact on the business.
  • Comply with regulations. Many industries are subject to regulations that require businesses to have a certain level of cybersecurity in place. Complying with these regulations can help businesses to protect themselves from cyberattacks.

A Roadmap to move from Cloud to In premise - The reverse migration -- Is Cloudflation at myth?

 Cloudflation as a term is being used and talks on the spiralling cost of cloud bills for an organization. The easily available and provisioning options leads to workloads that run for no reasons, orphaned accounts and a gamut of costs that are accrued by multiple departments without much of an oversight. There is a trend to reduce the workloads and have a semblance of order. It is imperative that we have plans that helps to reverse the migration to cloud and bring back some of the workloads that might work cheaper to run local. Is there a roadmap to achieve this goal? A few pointers in this direction A roadmap for moving from the cloud to in-premise computing should include the following steps: Assess current workloads: Assess the current workloads that are running on the cloud and determine which workloads would be most suitable for in-premise computing. Identify in-premise infrastructure: Identify the in-premise infrastructure that will be needed to run the identified workloads....

The Finger Knows, even if your brain does not - Passwords

Was reading an interesting article, now that I have lost the link, I may not have it here, though I would fill that in once I get hands on it. This article was how the fingers knows what you are typing even though your eyes reading the content says you typed in wrong. This was done in a research that talks about how they introduced typos, some of the typos were introduced even when it was typed proper and some typos were corrected randomly. The conclusion of the study was that, the finger paused a second, when it typed fine, but the eyes looking at the screen, saying you got it wrong. The pause is because of the auto recognition of the fact by the fingers when you make a typo or that you are sure that you got the correspondence between the eyes and the fingers. Reading the article, made me wonder, have we not always remembered our passwords for different sites. Many a times I have had the opportunity to go to a website and even without thinking for a moment, the fingers go and hav...
