Welcome to ISMG's GovWare 2024 Compendium. GovWare, Singapore's premier cybersecurity trade event held as part of Singapore International Cyber Week, brought together a community of cybersecurity professionals, including policymakers, tech innovators and information security leaders.
With everything in the world lately seeming to reach end states faster - sometimes referred to as the "super cycle" or accelerationism - cybersecurity professionals must help their organizations "organize to operate," said Black Hat Europe conference founder Jeff Moss at this year's annual event.
Black Hat Europe returns to London with more than 45 keynotes and briefings tackling everything from bootloader bugs and flaws in artificial intelligence and large language model tools, to disrupting fake online brokerages and remotely hacking Volkswagen entertainment systems to track vehicles.
In the latest weekly update, ISMG editors discussed China outpacing the U.S. in critical technology research investments, why all 10 RSA Conference 2025 Sandbox Innovation finalists will receive a $5 million investment, and how artificial intelligence dominated the AWS re:Invent 2024 conference.
Finalists selected for RSA Conference’s Innovation Sandbox competition will now each receive a $5 million investment from Crosspoint Capital. Managing Partner Hugh Thompson said this initiative ensures top cybersecurity startups are equipped to handle increased demand and scale effectively.
As OT systems become more interconnected, traditional air gaps disappear, creating new risks, said Joseph Carson, chief security scientist and advisory CISO at Delinea. The convergence of IT and OT environments requires a stronger focus on protecting digital identities and access controls.
Organizations mistakenly believe their operational technology systems are air-gapped and immune to cyberthreats. Dawn Cappelli, director of OT-CERT at Dragos, discusses why these assumptions are dangerous security gaps and why organizations need to rethink their approach to OT security.
A "road map to resilience" approach helps organizations balance immediate, low-cost security improvements with complex, long-term risk reduction initiatives in industrial control systems, said Mex Martinot, vice president and global head of industrial cybersecurity at Siemens Energy.
With 75% of cybersecurity leaders facing the worst threat landscape they've seen and 90% reporting workforce shortages, emotional intelligence has become crucial for effective leadership and team retention, said Tara Wisniewski, EVP of advocacy, global markets and member engagement at ISC2.
Derek Manky, chief security strategist and vice president for global threat intelligence at Fortinet, shares the importance of public-private partnerships in cybersecurity. There's a lot of vetted interest and mutual benefit in such partnerships, and the will to move forward is strong, he said.
Traditional data center security approaches do not translate very well to cloud environments as cloud computing and Layer 7 applications have fundamentally changed the way organizations should implement security controls, said Traceable AI's Richard Bird.
The proliferation of data in today’s hyperconnected world presents both opportunities and risks. Rigo Van den Broeck, executive vice president of cybersecurity at Mastercard, said the sheer scale and accessibility of data require organizations to adopt proactive cybersecurity strategies.
Welcome to Information Security Media Group's Black Hat and DEF CON 2024 Compendium featuring latest insights from the industry's top cybersecurity researchers and ethical hackers, as well as perspectives from CEOs, CISOs and government officials on the latest trends in cybersecurity and AI.
Network detection and response delivers ground truth in cybersecurity, giving organizations crucial visibility into attacker behavior before, during and after ransomware attacks. Corelight CEO Brian Dye explains how NDR helps security teams verify threats and contain incidents effectively.
SquareX founder Vivek Ramachandran discusses the limitations of secure web gateways, focusing on their inability to handle dynamic, script-based attacks. He emphasizes the need for browser-native security products that offer real-time protection against evolving web threats.
