A disaster recovery plan (DPR) is essentially a roadmap designed to manage the disruptions of an unforeseen incident (such as a data breach or ransomware attack).

The likelihood of your business experiencing a cyber-attack is higher than you might think.

Classifying new and unknown (zero-day) malware has always been a challenge in the security industry as new variants are discovered in the wild at an overwhelming rate.

Once an adversary has compromised privileged credentials, for example, by exploiting an attack path, they want to make sure they don’t lose their foothold in the domain. That is, even if the accounts they have compromised are disabled or have their passwords reset, they want to be able to easily regain Domain Admin rights. One way to achieve this persistence is to exploit features of Active Directory that are intended to keep privileged accounts protected: AdminSDHolder and SDProp.

The Utah Medicaid office offers healthcare to qualifying patients throughout the state. These patients rely on the organization to provide them with their medical insurance and to offer other services to them. While providing those services, the organization maintains health and wellness information as well as personal data. That's why it's concerning that the Utah Medicaid office recently experienced a self-caused data breach.
