"It's like bringing a knife to a gun fight"

Outdated Understanding of Cybercrime is Risky for Financial Markets   Today, [url=http://citywire.co.uk/global/cyber-crime-now-poses-systemic-risk-to-markets-report-warns/a692485]CityWire Global reported[/url] that global financial markets are under a growing threat of cybercrime, according to the latest report from the International Orgnaization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO).   [i]‘Reliance on an out-dated understanding of what cyber-crime entails, a perception of safety due to containment of past cyber-attacks, or assumptions around the limited capabilities of cyber-criminals today–may mean we end up “bringing a knife to a gun fight” in the future,’ said the report’s author Rohini Tendulkar.[/i] [i] [/i] This data seems to be in line with the thoughts of many other analysts.

Feature Enhancement Requests

Hi everybody,    I received a support ticket from a customer who had a number of feature enhancement requests so I decided to post them here to let the rest of the community vote on them. And they are as follows:   [b]1. It would be nice if you could remove the ”Deactivated Endpoints” from the Group View under Group Management. It’s very confusing to have that number in the middle of all the groups. Maybe move it somewhere else? [/b] [b]2. Also, it would be nice if you could move clients to a group when you have selected ”All endpoints” view. [/b] [b]3. Another nice feature would be to connect a policy to a group so that the policy is enabled automatically if a client is moved into that group. [/b][b] [/b]     Thanks guys,    Regards.   Peter

Is your aging endpoint security giving you gray hair?

Webroot's own [b]Darren Niller[/b] posted this article over on [url=http://community.spiceworks.com/product/4895-webroot]our Spiceworks page:[/url]   Take a look and post your thoughts!   [h1][url=http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/262158-is-your-aging-endpoint-security-giving-you-gray-hairs]Is your aging endpoint security giving you gray hairs?[/url][/h1]  The signature-based approach to protecting endpoints from cyberthreats has served organizations well for many years—some say perhaps too many. The increasing rate of breaches and infections represents just one symptom of a solution whose time has passed. If you are an IT professional in charge of managing endpoints, you likely understand the pain.   [b]No signatures available for “zero-day threats”[/b] Developed almost two decades ago, legacy anti-virus/anti-malware technology uses large client applications to search for known “bad” patterns of data within executable files. It does this by comparing a signatu

Research: Enterprise Antivirus Security: How does your solution stack up?

More than 55,000 new malicious software programs are registered [i]each day [/i]by AV-Test an independent antivirus (AV) research institue.  Any one of these can have a mild to devastating impact on the organization, randing from wasted IT staff hours to damages to consumer confidence or losses of dollars in the instance of a regulatory violation.    In fact, the average organization experiences a malware attack every 73 days, Osterman Research found in a 2011 study, in which 44% of participants said that a single malware attack had cost them as much as $10,000, while another 27% reported financial impacts as high as $50,000.  Too few IT decision-makers address malware threats adequately, chalking up security breaches as a cost of doing business, the researchers noted, adding, "The costs [of malware] are typically higher than many organizations realize, but with the right knowledge and technologies, it is possible to reduce the impacts of malware."  Canalys Research has likew

Online Backup - who uses it and what do you use?

I use BackBlaze at home and they do a great job.  Not only do they have great online backup service, they also sponsor [url=http://www.worldbackupday.com/]World Backup Da[/url]y.  Walter Mossberg just did a [url=http://recode.net/2014/03/11/triple-coverage-back-up-your-computer-in-three-ways/]nice review[/url] of them.  They do both consumer and business backups.  They also do some really [url=http://blog.backblaze.com/2014/01/21/what-hard-drive-should-i-buy/]nice blog posts[/url] about reliability of hard drives and how they run their business.   Their backup saved my bacon as the HD on my old iMac died.  I had an external drive I backed up to with Time Machine, but it turned out that drive had errors as well.  The online backup ended up doing the trick.  Glad I was using belt and suspenders :)

Businesses not immune to state-sponsored hacking

Businesses aren't immune to state-sponsored attacks - they can be caught up when secret services target individuals, experts have said. Security experts speaking at InfoSec Europe warned that businesses often think such attacks are only something national governments do to each other, but businesses could prove to be the "weak link in the chain"   Security analyst Graham Cluley explained: “You might not think you are of interest to the government of China or Greece, but your customers may be. We have to recognise [that]." For example, Cluely pointed to GCHQ hacking Belgacom, Belgium’s largest telecoms provider. He said no-one "is afraid of Belgium", it was the organisation’s clients that were the ultimate target.   However, while businesses are at risk from state-sponsored attacks, criminals remain the greatest risk, especially via low-key techniques such as phishing or insider leaks. Michael J Driscoll, assistant legal counsel, at the Embassy of the USA said cybercriminals c

iOS vs. Android-Do malware risks play a part in the debate?

Today's edition of CNET's bi-weekly "Ask Maggie" tech advice column puts a small twist on a topic we here at Webroot are very well-versed on-[b]mobile[/b] [b]malware[/b] [b]and[/b] [b]how to[/b] [b]protect against it.[/b] The twist is the question: Will switching from iOS to Android increase the chance of getting malware on my mobile device? (You can read the full CNET article [url=http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57557684-94/should-malware-risks-factor-into-the-iphone-vs-android-debate/]here)[/url] While the article is about personal use, I think it's just as relevant for business conversation as BYOD continues to be a hot topic. So I'd like to extend the discussion to the Webroot Business Community to get your thoughts on this.   1.  In general, how big of a concern is malware on mobile devices? How can it limit acceptance of BYOD policies? 2. If you're already using/planning to use BYOD at your company, which OS do you prefer your employees using? If it's iOS, is it becau
