Cyber security threats are through to a greater extent, causing difficulty and calling for the law to be enforced at international level to avoid such horrible attacks. Cyber security has become a crucial issue and the battle against the perpetrator cannot be won with antivirus software and simple password protection alone. In this area however, there are some cyber regulations which have been followed and can be helpful for the prevention of certain damages.

One of the important cyber regulations is GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliance which protects the data from intrusion and maintains it. As the data is encrypted so that it can be stopped from hacking alongside other internal risks of attack. The other regulation that has been widely adopted is the use of multifactor authentication has played a very vital role in the field of cybersecurity and many attacks have been avoided due to this attack.

AI is an important tool in implementing cyber regulations because it works on both sides as it helps to escape security risks, and also leads the way to deter and respond to emerging problems.

Tech has become a must for every business and has raised the bar of importance to a maximum level for every sector. Cyber threats are the number one world economic security concerns.

What Is threat intelligence?

The concept of intelligence isn’t anything new. It’s been used throughout history and in many different industries; we see it in  OSINT , espionage and even market research, among others. Threat intelligence, specifically, is collecting and analyzing information about indicators of past, current and future cyber threats, which enables an organization to take action to protect their assets, network and the entire organization. The keyword here is analysis. Let’s think of it this way: You’ve compiled a list of all the data breaches that took place over the past year and the types of malware that caused them. That list may be informative, but it doesn’t do much good by merely existing. So what now? You have to combine your historical knowledge with data on current threats, attack vectors, existing and exploited vulnerabilities, threat actors that are specific to your industry, then analyze and compare them to find the needle in the haystack that will yield the relevant intel ...

Is Connectivity Making Industrial Cybersecurity More Vulnerable?

It can be argued that industrial facilities have taken to digital transformation much earlier than other enterprises. While it’s only now that some businesses are committing to adopting digital tools, factories have been using robots and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) decades before the dotcom boom of the nineties. Industrial cybersecurity comes to the forefront as industries increasingly adopt digital technologies. What’s probably sweeping industries today are technologies that rely on connectivity: the cloud, mobile computing, and the  Internet-of-Things  (IoT). These technologies offer some very exciting applications. The cloud has allowed organizations to shift part of their IT infrastructure off-premises and easily scale their available computing resources. Mobile computing and connectivity have allowed engineers to monitor and control their machines remotely. Sensors and robots are now even smarter, and through the IoT, are capable of interfacing with externa...
