And You Thought It Could Not Get Worse Joe Vigorito/Director, Mobility & Security Annese & Associates, Inc. Sad State of Security “Many cyberattacks can be mitigated by relatively simple measures. Unfortunately, some people fail to take what appear to be basic precautions–such as using strong passwords, applying patches, and running a security solution. In many cases, breaking into a company’s network is easier than it sounds.” Costin Raiu Director, Global Research & Analysis Team Kaspersky Lab “I could teach a third-grader to do it.” Darren Martyn aka “PwnSauce” LulzSec After hacking senate.gov in 2011 The Current State of Cybersecurity is Not Nearly Good Enough, and is getting worse all the time!

Many companies have really bad security, and have comfortably had it for a long time.” – Marcus Ranum WannaCry Ransomware Patching, A/V & Endpoint Admin Are Important But Insufficient! Four other higher order concepts are needed…. The Higher Order of Security • Data Classification & Information Impact o What data does my organization need to function and where is it? • Business Resiliency / Continuity o Can I operate if every tool currently at my disposal is impaired? o Note, disaster recovery is one piece of this puzzle, not the puzzle itself! • Prevention o Your tools: Layer, Limit, Diversify, Obfuscate, Simplify • Incident Preparedness o Canary in the coal mine test: If staff sees a ransom note, they do what?
