A clean bill of health: Harnessing data for precision healthcare
Unlike other industries, UK healthcare isn’t defined by how much revenue can be generated. Instead, success is measured in terms of achieving positive health outcomes for patients.
With new healthcare data available from a variety of sources -- such as wearables, clinical trials and biometric sensors -- healthcare is now driven as much by the promise of data processing and advanced analytics as it is by developing new and specialized drugs. So, how can healthcare professionals move faster, and gain actionable insights from the huge volumes of data they collect?
Over a third of ICS vulnerabilities have no patch available
New research from SynSaber, along with the ICS Advisory Project, into industrial control operational technology system vulnerabilities finds that 34 percent of the CVEs reported in the first half of 2023 currently have no patch or remediation available from the vendor.
This compares to the 35 percent that had no fixes in the second half of 2022 but is a significant increase from the 13 percent in the first half of last year.

Adapting to a changing cybersecurity landscape [Q&A]
The past few years have seen some major changes in the IT world. Accelerated by the pandemic we've seen a significant shift to the cloud and hybrid working models.
But this brings with it additional risks. We spoke to Matt Spitz, head of engineering at Vanta, to discuss the security challenges posed and how enterprises can adapt to cope with them.
SSH is the service most targeted by cloud attackers
A new cloud threat findings report from Cado Security looks at the evolving cloud threat landscape, shedding light on the heightened risk of cyberattacks due to the rapid adoption of cloud-focused services.
The report shows SSH is the most commonly targeted service accounting for 68.2 percent of the samples seen, followed by Redis at 27.6 percent, and Log4Shell traffic at a mere 4.3 percent, indicating a shift in threat actor strategy no longer prioritizing the vulnerability as a means of initial access.
Organizations are responding faster to cyber threats
On average, organizations' response time to cyber attacks improved by around a third -- from 29 to 19 days -- from 2021 to 2022.
The report from Immersive Labs suggests this improvement can be attributed to the urgency and need for fast response times amid the fallout of the Log4j crisis and other high-profile vulnerabilities over the past year.

Borderless data: Acting locally, thinking globally
Around the world, data borders and regulations are being strengthened in a drive to protect customer privacy and fight cybercrime. As a result, multinational businesses are contending with a complex regulatory landscape. For business, data, and technology leaders, today’s challenge is to comply with local regulations while respecting customer expectations and managing complex global supply chains. To meet these macro and micro-economic challenges, organizations are looking for borderless data systems that enable global business operations but meet local demands.
The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has given rise to similar laws across the world, and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) reports that 71 percent of countries have data protection regulations in place and 9 percent have legislation in development. Data governance professionals have increased their focus on data and cloud sovereignty in response, as some of these regulations restrict how data can be shared across physical national borders. In many cases, these regulations are positive and protect organizations and nations from criminals and aggressive states. However, today’s supply chains require data to be shared. A further complication is that cloud computing enables data sharing and business efficiency, yet the major cloud computing providers are firms from the USA. These businesses must comply with the US Cloud Act, which gives the US government access to data stored by these firms, even when hosting takes place outside of the USA.
Europe stays on top for broadband speeds

Over half of Azure and Google Cloud deployments fail CIS benchmarks
Cloud misconfiguration is a critical issue as it amplifies the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access. But new research from Qualys shows that many cloud deployments on major platforms are failing Center for Internet Security (CIS) benchmarks.
The report finds that on average, 50 percent of CIS Benchmarks are failing across the major providers. The average fail rate for each provider is 34 percent for AWS, 57 percent for Azure, and 60 percent for Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
80 percent of digital certificates vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attacks
A new survey finds that nearly 80 percent of TLS certificates on the internet are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle (MiM) attacks, while as many as 25 percent of all certificates are expired at any given time.
The study, sponsored by automated machine identity management firm AppViewX and carried out by EEnterprise Management Associates (EMA), focuses on servers with SSL/TLS certificates on port 443.
