The FDA is generally on the right track in updating guidance for the cybersecurity of premarket medical devices. But a variety of changes are needed, say some of the healthcare sector companies and groups that submitted feedback to the agency.
In this report, we provide an overview of current vulnerability disclosure trends and insights into real-world vulnerability demographics in enterprise environments. We analyze vulnerability prevalence in the wild,
based on the number of affected enterprises, to highlight vulnerabilities that security practitioners...
For too many organisations, software vulnerability management is just about "patch Tuesday." Vulnerability management has evolved significantly in the past few years. Organisations need to adopt a new strategy focusing on visibility, prioritised response, and mitigation.
When you look back at the wave of...
U.S. prosecutors have accused a 34-year-old North Korean man of involvement in some of the most destructive and profitable cyberattacks ever seen, including the WannaCry ransomware outbreak, the Sony Pictures Entertainment breach and the theft of $81 million from Bangladesh Bank.
A WannaCry outbreak has hit unpatched Windows 7 systems at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., crippling its factories. The world's largest chipmaker, which traced the infection to a new software tool that it failed to scan for malware before installation, says the outbreak could cost it $170 million.
