Fleets are often early adopters of ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) features that promote safety. The unintended consequence of ADAS adoption, however, are that computers are at the controls. Learn how we make connected fleets more resilient to potential attacks.

Learn how the DoD needs to take an incremental, measurable approach to increasing cyber resilience to cyberattack across weapons systems.

To help enterprise security teams reduce risk, the RunSafe Pwn Index™, a proprietary score and methodology, tracks the average price of cyber exploits targeting enterprise and government agency software assets.

Organizations often perceive cybersecurity as a necessary evil. They know that it’s critical to protect business assets but it’s seldom seen as a driver that helps move the business forward. It’s a checkbox, a requirement that is begrudgingly addressed to reduce risk and remain in compliance.

RunSafe Security is a cybersecurity startup and Mach37 graduate focused on providing security solutions to firms and agencies in the domain areas of national security, critical infrastructure, data centers, Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), and, in the future, healthcare device manufacturers.

Like all sectors of critical infrastructure, the oil and gas (O&G) industry has emerged as a top target for cyberattack, yet most companies are not doing nearly enough to mitigate the risks.

Fintech is defined by technologies that span the cloud, mobile devices, blockchain, and AI for financial applications ranging from virtual currencies, to payment processing, money transfers, equity trading, and regulatory compliance, among others.

Let’s not beat around the bug – 2018 was not a good year for my kind. As of now, nearly one in three computers was hit with a malware attack this year, and ransomware attacks were up 43% over 2017, with nothing to signal that these trends will decrease any time soon.

Bucking the trend of a cybersecurity blog beginning with bad news, we’re beginning this post with some positive news: the hunt for solutions to weapon systems vulnerabilities is finally underway. This thanks to The MITRE report, the GAO report, and Secretary Mattis’ recent launch of the Protecting Critical Technology Task Force, which fully articulate the vulnerabilities in legacy DoD weapon systems.

What you are about to read could be straight out of a horror movie. You would hear the eerie voiceover intoning…”In a world where endpoints are under constant attack, how do you protect yourself? Your critical infrastructure? Your data? Your business?”

While data centers have traditionally relied on detection and perimeter security solutions to reduce risk, the proliferation of new types of cyber threats has elevated the need for prevention.

Finding a vulnerability and then developing and launching an exploit is repeated many times every day. Companies must be aware of two perspectives: what a system is intended to do, and what a system can do.

On an almost weekly basis, another organization or government agency owns up to having been “hacked” – admitting that its systems have been breached. For every company that discloses an issue, there are likely 20 – 30 more that keep it under wraps.

As the automotive industry adds more software and connections into vehicles, it simultaneously increases the probability of cyberattacks due to vulnerabilities.

One of the main reasons cyber risk continues to increase exponentially is due to the rapid expansion of attack surfaces – the places where software programs are vulnerable to attack or probe by an adversary.

Today’s industrial infrastructure is stronger and smarter than ever before. As manufacturers seek greater scalability and efficiency, they’ve automated and digitized their machines to achieve unprecedented power.

Symantec’s new “Internet Security Threat Report,” shows a 200% increase in reported supply chain cyberattacks year on year.
