(By Mohit Kumar, The Hacker News) Ingalls: We highly recommended for Adobe users to download and install the latest versions of the affected software to protect their systems and businesses from potential cyber-attacks.

Quantifying Cyber Risk: Why You Must & Where to Start

One sign of cybersecurity maturity is adoption of a common language and analytical framework to describe risk in terms other lines of business understand. (By Curtis Franklin Jr., Dark Reading) Ingalls: Quantifying cybersecurity risks can be a critical step in understanding those risks and getting executive support to address them. The cybersecurity experts at Ingalls have spent years helping our clients identify their risks and implementing solutions. To help you with this task, we have created a downloadable 8-point guide that explores ways for SMBs to develop the level of cybersecurity risk management that prevents attacks from succeeding and minimizes the impact of a successful intrusion.


Human Behavior is What Makes Phishing Attacks So Successful

The Epidemic of COVID-19 Phishing Emails Rages On

Spoofs of authoritative sources of information continue to be the most common malicious virus-themed emails that are reported to us. And the top three spoofed organizations remain the CDC (Centers for Disease Control), the WHO (World Health Organization), and HR. Since the publication of KnowBe4's first two blog pieces documenting the flood of Coronavirus-themed emails (see HERE and HERE), customers using the Phish Alert Button (PAB) have continued to share an ever-growing variety of emails from bad actors looking to capitalize on the crisis. (By Stu Sjouwerman, KnowBe4) Ingalls: Keep your employees on the lookout for signs of social engineering, particularly since fraudulent emails about the coronavirus are increasing. These emails (phishing emails) may either have infected attachments or link to malicious websites. Instruct employees to exercise special caution with coronavirus related emails.
