Will Quantum Computing change the way we use encryption?
Today, encryption is a cornerstone of our cybersecurity practices. It protects everything from cell phones and SMS messages to financial transactions and intellectual property.
However, a new challenge in the complex landscape of encryption has recently emerged, thanks to the advancement of quantum computing. What challenges lay ahead? Here is the breakdown:
Mitigating fraud risks when expanding internationally
Global expansion is the way forward for businesses looking to upscale in 2023 and beyond. The past few years have laid the foundation for international expansion, and now more and more merchants are embracing the opportunities.
But as they’re venturing into new markets, certain challenges appear along the way. One of them is cross-border payment. While businesses might be familiar with the fraud situation in their home market, new territories present new fraud obstacles. Here is why fraud familiarization is key to success and what are the fraud profiles of some of the major markets.
The CISO view: Navigating the promise and pitfalls of cybersecurity automation
Cybersecurity automation has steadily gained traction as organizations seek to improve efficiency, address talent gaps, and keep up with escalating threats. However, our latest State of Cybersecurity Automation research shows that while more businesses are utilizing automation, they continue to grapple with obstacles that prevent them from fully capitalizing on its benefits.
In our recent study surveying over 700 cybersecurity professionals, we uncovered several persistent pain points in implementing automation. The research found that a lack of trust in automated outcomes, insufficient expertise among users, and poor communication between teams have hampered automation success. As a result, organizations are struggling to build confidence in automation and maximize its effectiveness.

Why good cyber hygiene is a strategic imperative for UK SMEs
No company is immune from a cyber-attack, with large and small being targeted. As technologies advance and cybercriminals hone their skills, evolve their tactics, and find new vulnerabilities to exploit, companies can no longer ask the question of if a cyber attack will occur but when and how it will happen.
While the number of data breaches is cause for concern, the cost associated with them is equally alarming. According to Cybersecurity Ventures, the global average cost of a cyberattack has ballooned to $4.45 million, increasing by 15 percent over the past three years. Even more sobering is that it shows no signs of easing, as global cybercrime costs are projected to reach $10.5 trillion annually by 2025.
Out of control data puts compliance at risk
According to a new report, 66 percent of IT decision makers (ITDMs) are worried that data is spiraling out of control in their organization and that this is putting compliance at risk.
The study of 850 ITDMs carried out for Cloudera shows that 63 percent of organizations believe siloed data makes it harder for them to comply with data compliance regulations.
Companies step up investment in ransomware protection
In the wake of the MOVEit vulnerability, which affected an estimated 40 million people around the world, businesses are stepping up their investment in ransomware protection.
A new study carried out by Censuswide for Veeam Software surveyed 100 directors of UK companies with over 500 employees who had suffered a ransomware attack in the past 18 months and finds 24 percent report they are significantly more anxious about ransomware attacks as a direct result of the MOVEit breach.

The next evolution of AI: From conversations to interactions
Chatbots such as ChatGPT and voice assistants like Siri and Alexa have become ubiquitous parts of our daily lives. Millions of people regularly converse with these AI-powered tools to get information, set reminders, control smart devices, and more. However, while chatbots and virtual assistants represent an important early milestone in the development of artificial intelligence, they remain limited in significant ways.
These conversational agents can only engage in simple, narrow tasks operating in an isolated, disembodied way, devoid of richer context and unable to leverage external data sources.Moreover, most common AI tools only utilize rigid text or voice-only interfaces, restricting more natural interaction. The true promise of AI lies in building assistants that can seamlessly interact with us and other applications in an integrated way to accomplish complex, multi-step goals.
The human element -- cybersecurity's greatest challenge
The stark reality of cybersecurity today isn't merely a question of advanced software or strategic counterattacks. It's about people.
The financial impact is undeniable with cybercrime costs projected to reach an astonishing $10.5 trillion annually by 2025. Yet, beneath these figures lies a more pressing issue: the exploitation of human psychology.
