By building in some risk intelligence upfront, organizations can upgrade their security operations centers and reduce the noise from the sheer volume of alerts and false positives, says Ganesh Prasad of RSA, who shares insights.
The data being used to drive effective anti-fraud efforts can be rich in context and useful for other activities. Jim Apger of Splunk describes emerging fraud schemes and solutions, highlighting the role of machine learning.
Hackers have been plugging inexpensive hardware into banks' local area networks to help perpetrate heists that have stolen tens of millions of dollars, warns Kaspersky Lab. It says that since 2017, the "DarkVishnya" attack campaign has hit at least eight Eastern European banks.
The marketers would have us believe that machine learning and behavioral analytics are the keys to unlocking the future of healthcare information security. But Vikrant Arora, CISO of the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, offers a more practical outlook.
The easy availability of tools for designing face-swapping deep-fake videos drove Symantec security researchers Vijay Thaware and Niranjan Agnihotri to design a tool for spotting deep fakes, which they described in a briefing at the Black Hat Europe 2018 conference in London.
Hampered by insufficient tools and skills, many organizations are now investing in managed detection and response solutions. What questions should they ask when selecting a partner? Sharda Tickoo of Trend Micro shares insights.
Israel-based Yehuda Lindell, a cryptography professor, describes how to use secure multiparty computation technology to protect cryptographic keys and describes other potential security applications.
Insider incidents are a chronic problem
for organizations. Back in 2009, the
