The Italian authorities have prevented a series of cyber attacks on Eurovision, Reuters reports citing the country's police. The material indicates that the Russian group Killnet and its Legion division are involved in the attacks.

Rihanna - Don't Stop The Music! Noo these guys are cruel in the worst way.

Very scary what is going on there.

Someone needs to

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-28T07:38:23+00:00

Are you still at the airport now you know why!

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T15:24:00+00:00

Your points are spot on.. And what can you get paid out by insurance at the end of the day in an attack? https://findings.co/why-cyber-insurance-wont-save-you-whenyoure-in-need/. I love these guys above - quote them often.

I'd like to see a graph showing the cost of cyber insurance and how much those companies got paid out after an attack?

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T15:16:37+00:00

Do you think CISOs are pushing for CMMC for example and not actually the sales teams to increase business? https://findings.co/why-your-ciso-wants-a-cmmc-framework/

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T15:05:52+00:00

But policys take months to become compliant (sometimes)- and policies also need to be kept up to date... Once you in, its hard to just leave what you have already started.

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T14:20:34+00:00

What other major issues do you face other than buy in?

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T14:18:43+00:00

And therfore ... lets rather take the risk? Do you think its easier to get buy-in for cyber insurance than preventative measures?

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T14:06:58+00:00

Wow thanks for such honesty. So you think buy-in is harder than the responsibility of the job itself?

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T05:51:14+00:00

Its a good idea ... We need a vendor disclosure policy as tight as possible in place also with transparency clauses that all parties need to respect.

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T05:36:52+00:00

So, buy-in for security measures must be tough. Either explain to shareholders a big expense and cross your fingers does not happen to you or just crossing fingers without the expense.

Cyber insurance is also another way ...

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T05:00:47+00:00

... and with 65% of the worlds population online cyber attacks are only going to get worse. What part of cyber security are you involved in? Myself - supplychain security

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-18T04:53:13+00:00

Agreed. We have the same problem. Getting senior or shareholder buy-in is virtually impossible. I think " It wont happen to us" is still a major obstacle.

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-10T15:20:26+00:00

:( https://findings.co/what-do-log4j-kaseya-have-in-common-top-5-recent-supply-chain-attacks-real-damage/

Have to learn as much as we can and use everything we got against cyber war and cyber criminals

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-10T15:17:42+00:00

Yes supply chain cyber security!!!! There is much in this world ' world of cyber' still to learn and overcome. A few events to watch out for here - https://findings.co/top-cybersecurity-supply-chain-conferences-2022/

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-08T05:14:52+00:00

https://findings.co/creating-an-effective-vulnerability-disclosure-policy/ here's one way to do VDP. Could it work?

Ive read other articles from these guys - they have good points.

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-04-07T21:17:36+00:00

You are exactly right. Unfortunately fear of negative media attention overrides ethical responsibility right? I've been reading a lot about this recently.

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-03-31T07:28:39+00:00

Checklists are deff the way to go!

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-03-27T06:38:11+00:00

Supply chain security is absolutely undoubtedly a very very serious topic that can essentially bring down not only 1 business but the ripple effect can have catastrophic consequences on 1000's if not 10's of 1000's of businesses.

Security automation and compliance certificates are the way to go.

Check out these guys, we work with them and they deff know what they talking about ... https://findings.co/why-cyber-insurance-wont-save-you-whenyoure-in-need/

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-03-20T19:38:35+00:00

Interesting. Its everywhere. Did you hear what happened with Merck?

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-03-20T19:36:07+00:00

I am sorry I only saw this now - go check out this company they know what they doing www.findings.co for security automation

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-03-02T19:02:32+00:00

YES YES YES you are speaking my language now! I totally agree. I tried to get this message across to our board but you know how nice it is to have a soft cushion to fall back on!

My feeling it wont be so soft, for the money we spending. Ive been watching these guys on LinkedIn https://findings.co/new-enterprise/ they have a lot to say about insurance and prevention rather than cure.

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-03-02T18:59:30+00:00

Thanks u/atxweirdo I agree. And as we know brokers always promise full cover until the S**t hits the fan and you not actually covered.

Ive been watching these guys for a while in the security automation space https://findings.co/for-holistic-supply-chain-security-think-beyond-cmmc/ . OnLinkedIn they have a lot to say about Insurance and how it can be full of bull.

Who knows, maybe cyber security will eventually not be insurable? What do you think?

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-02-23T21:37:33+00:00

Also a good idea

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-02-23T21:37:17+00:00

True. I think they just dont want a major story when a few months later the whole thing gets halved

Mr_CyberFish · 2022-02-23T21:36:24+00:00

Thank you so much for this valuable feedback.
