2014 Data Protection Maturity Survey: Results and Analysis

Lumension

Organizations around the world are losing intellectual property and customer data to cyber criminals at mind-boggling rates. How is this happening? For 5 consecutive years, the annual State of the Endpoint Report, conducted by Ponemon Institute, has surveyed IT practitioners involved in securing endpoints. This year’s report reveals endpoint security risk is more difficult to minimize than ever before. What are IT pros most concerned about heading into 2014? From the proliferation of mobile devices, third party applications, and targeted attacks/APTs, endpoint security risk for 2014 is becoming more of a challenge to manage. Larry Ponemon of the Ponemon Institute reveals statistics on growing insecurity, IT’s perceived areas of greatest risk for 2014 as well as tactical suggestions for how to improve your endpoint security. Specifically, you will learn: •IT perspective on the changing threat landscape and today’s Top 5 risks; •Disconnect between perceived risk and corresponding strategies to combat those threats; •Tips and tricks on how to best communicate today’s threats and subsequent needed responses up the management chain

Last time it was Adobe’s code signing servers. This time it’s 2.9 million (let’s just call it 3) customers’ data and lots and lots of source code – including that of Acrobat. Adobe products already require constant patching but offer no enterprise level solution for patching. In this presentation by Ultimate Windows Security, we’ll present why this will likely lead to more and we’ll look at what we know about this latest Adobe breach. But more importantly I’ll show what you can do in advance to protect yourself against zero-day exploits in Adobe products and programs. After all this won’t be the last time a software vendor is hacked. In this day and age we have to protect ourselves from the failures of our software providers. I’ll present 3 ways you can go on the offensive to protect yourself from the constant vulnerabilities discovered in Adobe Reader, Acrobat, Flash and Oracle Java. Here’s what we’ll discuss: *Alternatives to Adobe and Java *Different ways to containing vulnerable apps in a sandbox * Using advanced memory protection technologies to detect and stop buffer overflows and other memory based attacks Patching and AV only helps you close the window on hacker opportunity. To prevent the window from opening in the first place you have to prevent untrusted code from ever running in the first place. That requires application whitelisting and memory protection against code injection – a growing menace that bypasses controls based on file system and EXE scanning. That’s why Lumension is sponsoring this event. I think you’ll be interested seeing 2 of their end-point security technologies that will help protect you from the new exploits on their way as a result of this hack as well as the constant stream of exploits discovered every day. This is going to be a really cool presentation with practical tips that you can apply. Learn how to protect your systems from other software vendor vulnerabilities.

The European Union’s proposed new data protection regulation aims to update Europe’s data protection laws and to provide a more consistent data protection framework across the Continent. But the new regulation, which replaces the EU’s existing data protection directive and member states’ data protection laws, will put some new demands on organisations holding personal data. Breach disclosure and “the right to be forgotten” will force businesses to update their data protection and retention policies. This presentation will: - Review the current EU laws, and contrast them with laws in other parts of the world; - Examine the arguments for strengthening data protection in Europe, and the likely outcomes; - Look at what security teams should already be doing to put themselves ahead of legislative changes; - Outline strategies and technologies organisations need to meet current and future data protection requirements - Help infosecurity teams to explain the changes – and their consequences – to their boards

Just over a decade ago, the outcry over Microsoft’s security problems reached such a deafening level that it finally got the attention of Bill Gates, who wrote the famous Trustworthy Computing memo. Today, many would say that Microsoft leads the industry in security and vulnerability handling. Now, it’s Java that’s causing the uproar. But has Oracle learned anything from Microsoft in handling these seemingly ceaseless problems? I’ll start by reviewing the wide-ranging Java security changes Oracle is promising to make. They sound so much like the improvements Microsoft made back with Trustworthy Computing that I’m amazed it hasn’t been done before! We’ll move on to discuss what you can do now to address Java security in your environment. One of the banes of security with Java is the presence of multiple versions of Java, often on the same computer. Sometimes you really need multiple versions of Java to support applications with version dependencies (crazy, I know). But other times, multiple copies of Java are there “just because.” In this webinar, we’ll talk about the current Java mess and how you can get out of it, including: Assessment. We’ll discuss ways and tools for cataloging what versions of Java are actually out there on your endpoints. Identification. We’ll look at methods for identifying which versions are actually required by your users; for instance, I’ll show you how you might use Process Tracking and File Access events in the Windows Security Log to see which Java files are being accessed, by whom, and by which programs. Disabling. Can you just disable Java? Maybe not for everyone, but what if you could disable it for certain roles within your company that make up 25% – or even 75% – of your workforce? That would be worth it. We’ll explore how you might go about such a measure. Hardening. We’ll dive into the technical details of hardening Java and reducing your Java attack surface, where possible. Filtering. Another way to reduce your Java risk is by filtering Java content at your gateway. Again not full coverage control – but what is? Patching. Then, we’ll delve into the Java patching nightmare. Depending on self-updaters on each endpoint, is could be a recipe for disaster, and I’ll explain why. Basically the only way out of the Java mess is a 3rd party solution that can perform centralized patch management and remediation and that’s where our sponsor, Lumension, will come in.

The presentation explores the development and application of artificial intelligence (AI) from its inception to its current status in the modern world. The term "artificial intelligence" was first coined by John McCarthy in 1956 to describe efforts to develop computer programs capable of performing tasks that typically require human intelligence. This concept was first introduced at a conference held at Dartmouth College, where programs demonstrated capabilities such as playing chess, proving theorems, and interpreting texts. In the early stages, Alan Turing contributed to the field by defining intelligence as the ability of a being to respond to certain questions intelligently, proposing what is now known as the Turing Test to evaluate the presence of intelligent behavior in machines. As the decades progressed, AI evolved significantly. The 1980s focused on machine learning, teaching computers to learn from data, leading to the development of models that could improve their performance based on their experiences. The 1990s and 2000s saw further advances in algorithms and computational power, which allowed for more sophisticated data analysis techniques, including data mining. By the 2010s, the proliferation of big data and the refinement of deep learning techniques enabled AI to become mainstream. Notable milestones included the success of Google's AlphaGo and advancements in autonomous vehicles by companies like Tesla and Waymo. A major theme of the presentation is the application of generative AI, which has been used for tasks such as natural language text generation, translation, and question answering. Generative AI uses large datasets to train models that can then produce new, coherent pieces of text or other media. The presentation also discusses the ethical implications and the need for regulation in AI, highlighting issues such as privacy, bias, and the potential for misuse. These concerns have prompted calls for comprehensive regulations to ensure the safe and equitable use of AI technologies. Artificial intelligence has also played a significant role in healthcare, particularly highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic, where it was used in drug discovery, vaccine development, and analyzing the spread of the virus. The capabilities of AI in healthcare are vast, ranging from medical diagnostics to personalized medicine, demonstrating the technology's potential to revolutionize fields beyond just technical or consumer applications. In conclusion, AI continues to be a rapidly evolving field with significant implications for various aspects of society. The development from theoretical concepts to real-world applications illustrates both the potential benefits and the challenges that come with integrating advanced technologies into everyday life. The ongoing discussion about AI ethics and regulation underscores the importance of managing these technologies responsibly to maximize their their benefits while minimizing potential harms.

Created by Mozilla Research in 2012 and now part of Linux Foundation Europe, the Servo project is an experimental rendering engine written in Rust. It combines memory safety and concurrency to create an independent, modular, and embeddable rendering engine that adheres to web standards. Stewardship of Servo moved from Mozilla Research to the Linux Foundation in 2020, where its mission remains unchanged. After some slow years, in 2023 there has been renewed activity on the project, with a roadmap now focused on improving the engine’s CSS 2 conformance, exploring Android support, and making Servo a practical embeddable rendering engine. In this presentation, Rakhi Sharma reviews the status of the project, our recent developments in 2023, our collaboration with Tauri to make Servo an easy-to-use embeddable rendering engine, and our plans for the future to make Servo an alternative web rendering engine for the embedded devices industry.
