Zoom, Houseparty, and Duo should be afraid for now. So now the world’s most popular chat service WhatsApp is expanding its group call limit four to eight people. As the first reported by the whatsapp beta developers WABetaInfo, the company is rolling out this feature in its beta versions of  iOS(2.20.50.25)  and  Android(2.20.135)  across the world wide.

Cybersecurity training from employers in the past year

Cybersecurity continues to be a challenge for businesses of all sizes, especially as workers are shifting to a remote workforce globally. According to recent research by Promon, the Oslo-based mobile security company which  last year revealed flaws in the Home Office’s Brexit app , two-thirds of remote workers in the UK have not been given any cybersecurity training from employers in the past 12 months, while 77% say they aren’t worried about their cybersecurity while working remotely. Promon’s research into the attitudes towards cybersecurity comes after Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, warned on March 24th that cybercrime in the EU has increased due to the coronavirus outbreak. As the pandemic has forced many more people to work from home, attackers are capitalizing on the increased amount of time spent online by carrying out targeted COVID-19-related phishing campaigns which can result in the victim downloading ransomware (malware that...

Ethical Hacking is NOT What Hollywood Portrays (It’s Even Better)

BIG Salary Per a leading job portal, the average annual salary of a certified ethical hacker is $99,000. Even the new professionals, filling any entry-level post, can expect annual income as high as $95,000. In India, Certified Ethical Hackers or CEHs make an annual average salary of around Rs 4,40,000. Versus the other traditional (and hyped) career paths, evidently, this stream promises financial rewards in abundance. To that, the salary also depends a lot on the organization and department you’re working with. Top Organizations Are Looking For You Per Accenture, the average cost of a malware attack is $2.4 million in money and 50 days in time. No wonder, even the small and medium-scale companies are investing extensively to secure their IT infrastructure. Then, of course, top brands, along with almost all government organizations around the world, are going big with their spending on cyber-security. This, collectively, have upshot the need and demand of ethical hackers at ...

Where is the World of Cybersecurity Heading in 2020?

TUV Rheinland Releases Their 7th Annual Cybersecurity Trends Report As we all know, the world of cybersecurity is an ever-evolving, fast-growing industry that can be tough to follow at times. For example, we have seen a rapid upsurge in the use of smart devices and with that, an increased risk of cyberattacks. This has not been limited to private households either. Rather, the logistics industry and private vehicles are also at risk of being hacked. Indeed, as individuals and industries increasingly move online, this inevitably leads to an accumulation of data in mammoth proportions. When access to this data is left uncontrolled, this could potentially destabilise the digital society. In other words, as Petr Lahner, Business Executive Vice President for the business stream Industry Service & Cybersecurity at TUV Rheinland, explains, “…it is particularly serious that cybercrime is increasingly affecting our personal security and the stability of society as a whole.” As such,...

Ensure Productivity and Security When Employees Must Work from Home

By Rita Selvaggi, CEO of  ActivTrak The global reach of the coronavirus has elevated the discussion around the need for “social distancing” and working remotely to avoid spreading the infectious virus. Global companies like  IBM, Goldman Sachs, and PwC are asking employees to work from home , as are smaller organisations, such  as Seattle-based online payment company Stripe . As organisations consider having employees work from home on a more massive scale, it’s important to recognise that doing so also introduces certain risks to the business that must be mitigated. In this article, I’d like to cover three remote workforce-related risks:  employee   productivity, digital security,  and  compliance. Not Every Employee is Productive at Home A traditional work environment provides employees focus, stimulus, and engagement intended to optimise workplace productivity. So, it’s no surprise that some employees simply aren’t wired to work by...

Smart Cities Cyber Security In India: The Problems And Solutions

Smart cities are the future of urbanisation and population sustainability. The aim of smart cities is to provide a conductive environment for living, commercial activities, healthcare and overall development. Smart cities also predominantly rely upon use of information and communication technologies (ICT) to render public services. Wherever applicable,  Internet of Things (IoT)  (PDF), cloud computing and virtualisation and machine to machine (M2M) system usage is also there. However, this omnipresent usage of ICT, IoT, M2M, cloud computing, etc has a potential drawback as well in the form of indifference towards  smart cities cyber security . It is not difficult to visualise a scenario of cyber attacks against the critical infrastructures of the smart cities that are run by ICT and technology. Such a cyber attack can cripple the entire smart city if properly executed.  Critical infrastructure protection in India  (PDF) is still at nascent stage. The natio...
