Every one of your IoT devices has their own machine identity. But how are these identities the key to achieving Zero Trust IoT project? Today’s PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) vendors have specific solutions for managing non-human identities – machines – like servers, laptops, software applications, API’s and other assets found within a corporate network.
Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs) are on everyone’s mind. It bears repeating, one of the most fundamental ways to reduce recovery time from a ransomware or cybersecurity attack is being well prepared and ready to take actions quickly and effectively. This is one of the many variables firmly within a customer’s control and key to a faster and more efficient recovery process. A ransomware attack can be one of the most stressful events an organization and its employees will encounter.

Recently, there has been considerable coverage of “bossware” and a focus on draconian types of “surveillance” some companies are using to stay on top of remote and flexible workforces. Articles claim companies are accessing the camera on laptops and tracking every movement so that employees can’t even go to the bathroom. In 1992, the New York Times ran a long article about Caller ID and how the new technology was an invasion of privacy.
Recent headlines have indicated that some major companies were affected by Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerabilities, just in the month of October. RCE flaws are largely exploited in the wild, and organizations are continually releasing patches to mitigate the problem. RCE is a type of an Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE) attack where the threat actor executes malicious commands on the target’s device.
