As third-party companies are introduced into the banking ecosystem, they add a new layer of complexity and potential opportunity for fraud, because they detach the bank from direct interaction with the end user. The new applications and services that are developed expand the fraud potential exponentially, and can...
Financial organizations need to more accurately assess risk in the open banking environment. It's not enough to just get any generic analytics engine that can incorporate data from different interaction channels. A bank's fraud team must be able to identify cybercrime risk, payment risk and customer behavior, in...
It's frightening what criminals can buy on the dark web. But it's even scarier that they may be buying your own security certificates to use against you. Venafi recently sponsored a six-month investigation into the sale of digital code signing certificates on the dark web. Conducted with the Cyber Security Research...
Our increased dependence on machines is so profound that even the definition of machine is undergoing radical change. The number and type of physical devices on enterprise networks has been rising rapidly, but this is outstripped by the number of applications and services they host.
At the same time, cloud adoption...
Identity and Access Management (IAM) programs are becoming increasingly essential to securing critical systems and data; last year, companies spent $7 billion on IAM, most on protecting user credentials, but almost nothing protecting keys and certificates, the credentials that identify and authorize machine-to-machine...

As certificate counts within the average organization rise to tens of thousands, it has become exponentially harder to manage them effectively. Many organizations turn to their certificate authorities (CAs) to protect the keys and certificates that each CA issues. The basic tools CAs provide are certainly a step up...
Is your organization exposed to an attack that misuses SSH keys?
You know that your organization is using SSH to safeguard privileged access. But you may not realize that your SSH keys could be vulnerable to insider and cyber threats.
The majority of those we surveyed didn't. Results from a 2017 study show that...
A recently published 2017 survey of over 400 security professionals in the U.S., U.K. and Germany measured how well their organizations implemented security controls for SSH keys. The results show that most organizations are underprepared to protect against SSH-based attacks, with fewer than half following industry...
Take control of your SSH keys to minimize your risk of intrusion
SSH keys provide the highest level of access rights and privileges for servers, applications and virtual instances. Cyber criminals want this trusted status and invest considerable resources into acquiring and using SSH keys in their attacks.
Even...
SSH is used for secure administrative access, but what happens if it's not secure? Despite the sweeping access SSH keys grant, including root access, most are not as tightly controlled as their level of privilege requires.
If your organization doesn't know which administrators or SSH keys have access to which...
Clearly, adherence to HIPAA, NIST and other regulators in healthcare is paramount, but that does not mean that your organization isn't vulnerable to cybercrime hacking. When the average breach is worth $3.62 million with $380 per patient record compromised (as per Ponemon's 2017 Cost of
a Data Breach Report), the...
