As businesses increasingly rely on technology and the internet, exposure to workplace cyber security threats grows. Along with the rise in workplace tech, cybercrime has risen annually for several years. In 2016 it was the 2nd most reported type of crime globally. Privacy concerns parallel this rise. Hackers attack computers and networks at an alarmingly frequent rate. In fact, attacks average once every 39 seconds. Each year, more cybercrimes make the headlines. Security breaches, data theft, ransomware, malware threats and more dominate the news. The U.S. had the most data breaches of any other country, by a large margin. In 2016, there were 1,013 data breaches in the U.S. By comparison, second-place U.K. had just 38 breaches. 2017 saw a new record high of 1,579 breaches. Of these, business was the top- ranked category, accounting for 55% of all breaches. The Medical/Healthcare category came in second, with 23.7% of the total number of breaches. Many (if not most) content sharing platforms rely on the internet. In any workplace, a workstation that’s fully integrated into the corporate LAN is a much greater risk. Similarly, LAN-connected interactive displays can pose a cyber security risk. 1 Collaboration Security Risk Workstyles are changing. Today, collaboration dominates the way we get things done in education and the workplace. In 1985, groups accomplished around 30% of business work; however, by 2010, this number had increased to 80%. Today, 97% of employees and executives agree that collaboration enhances productivity. Working together impacts the outcome and among its many benefits, collaboration can increase innovation by up to 15% and reduce the time to market by up to 20%.* Working in teams can also create risk. According to Yaki Faitelson, Co- Founder and CEO of Varonis and head of the Forbes Technology Council: Access requirements change over time as projects and teams come and go, and users join, change roles, or leave the organization. It is important to know exactly who uses and no longer uses. The Varonis 2018 Global Data Risk Report indicated that 21% of an organization’s folders were accessible to every employee. 41% of companies had at least 1,000 sensitive files open to all employees. * Data source: Work.com, IDC, Wainhouse Research, akuity.com, polycom.com, redbooth.com, hbr.org, adjuvi. com, tinyhr.com 2 Secured Collaboration with the ViewBoard® IFP60 Series Interactive Displays The connectivity and collaboration capabilities compound security concerns at the workplace. To mitigate these concerns, ViewSonic® designs products with the latest security measures. The ViewSonic® ViewBoard® 60 line of IFPs were engineered with key security features to address today’s threats to enterprise security. Advanced interactive displays like the ViewSonic ViewBoard® interactive flat panels (IFPs) deliver value by enabling extensive collaboration. Meeting participants can share and receive information locally, via a LAN, or over the cloud-based myviewboard.com. The built-in browser enables easy integration of internet and cloud content to enhance presentations. The ViewSonic ViewBoard® IFP60 line of interactive displays are the all-in-one digital whiteboards with pre-installed software and cloud-based capabilities delivering advanced annotation and content sharing. The ViewBoard® IFPs allow teams to connect and collaborate from across the table or around the globe. A secured collaboration includes ViewBoard®’s enterprise-grade security features: • Biometric authentication • Multi-factor authentication • Single sign-on 3 Biometric Authentication Boosts Workplace Security Securing workplace and customer data with passwords is old news. Biometric authentication is the wave of the security future. Financial institutions are leading the way. Large U.S. banks increasingly use biometrics like fingerprints and facial scans to secure accounts. Many are forgoing passwords for biometric authentication. “We believe the password is dying,” said Tom Shaw, vice president for enterprise financial crimes management at financial services firm USAA. “We realized we have to get away from personal identification information because of the growing number of data breaches.” Biometrics combined with other security methods provides an added defense against hackers. More modalities mean strengthened security with more barriers to safeguard company information.

One finger access delivers a convenient, secure sign-on. Users quickly gain access to all ViewBoard® features, including access to company confidential files on the corporate LAN or cloud storage sites. Certified Biometric Standards: FIPS 201 PIV The U.S. federal government defined standards for biometric security in the Federal Information Processing Standard, Publication 201 (FIPS 201). FIPS 201 specifies Personal Identity Verification (PIV) requirements for federal employees and contractors. Many worldwide customs systems follow this standard, which was issued in response to a Homeland Security Presidential Directive. Among other things, FIPS 201 established rigorous standards for the image quality of biometric devices. ViewBoard®s and FIPS 201 The ViewBoard® IFP60 series biometric fingerprint module is tested to be in full compliance with FIPS 201. The module is certified by the FBI for the agency’s FIPS 201 standards. 5 Multi-factor Authentication for Enhanced Enterprise Security The password-only authentication is a known security risk, which attributes to compromised credentials - the leading cause of data breach. An multi-factor authentication (MFA) requires multiple methods of identification, adding a much-needed layer to workplace security. The multi-factor authentication uses a combination of at least two of the three credentials (factors): • Something You Know – Username, password, PIN, or security questions • Something You Have – Smartphone, one-time passcode, or smart card • Something You Are – Biometrics, like your fingerprint, retina scans, or voice recognition A two-factor authentication (2FA) is a common form of MFA for security. The 2FA requires two of the three MFA factors. To boost enterprise security, a user’s credentials must come from two different categories. For example, using two different passwords to log on would not be considered as a multi-factor. The multi-factor authentication is everywhere. You have experienced it if you have: • Swiped your bankcard at the ATM and then entered your PIN. • Logged into a website that sends a numeric code to your phone, which you then entered to gain access to your account. Extra security provides an added peace of mind. Imagine if one factor has been compromised by a hacker or unauthorized user; the likelihood that a second factor compromises is slim. An multi-factor authentication combined with a company’s existing network security is a smart way to boost workplace security. 6 ViewBoard®s and Multi-factor Security The ViewBoard® IFP60 series interactive displays offer robust multi-factor authentication options. These include: • Built-in biometric fingerprint reader • Pre-installed myViewBoard™ token account/password • Microsoft Windows-based PC account/password Multi-modal - Biometrics 2 Biometric - Security types !!token - Knowledge -Voice !!factors - Face 1 Biometric - Fingerprint type 2 Knowledge - Behavior - Physical factors Security - Behavioral token 1 Knowledge - Password factor - PIN - Device ID - Security - OTP token - Password Authentication strength !! question - PIN Authentication modality Source: Nuance white paper 7 Single Sign-on Leaves No Trace Single sign-on (SSO) authentication lets users access multiple applications with one set of login credentials. These credentials are often referred to as a “token.” SSO can be referred to as
