Tech Central: Since the beginning of the pandemic and the HSE ransomware attack, there has been a stark increase in phishing e-mails and ransomware attacks.
Tech Radar: Year after year, we see attackers, ranging from entry-level hackers to nation-state cyber armies, add new tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) to their cyberattack playbooks.
Beta News: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a technology leapfrog beyond anything we’ve seen in decades. But now that we’ve made this leap is there any going back? And do we have the right technology for enterprises to keep up with new demands?

Top Class Actions: Morgan Stanley agreed to a $60 million settlement to resolve a class action lawsuit regarding its 2016 and 2019 data breaches.
GDPR Buzz: The Danish Data Protection Agency (DPA) has proposed a fine of 10 million Danish Kroner – around $1.48 million – on the country’s largest lender, Danske Bank, for failing to implement GDPR-compliant procedures concerning the storage and deletion of the personal data of its customers. The DPA has also filed a criminal complaint against the bank and has reported it to the police over the failure to delete customers’ personal data from its systems.
The Target: Fox News, a U.S based news organization.
The Take: Exposure of Personally Identifiable Information including: internal employee emails, usernames, employee ID numbers, affiliate information, event logging, host names, IP address, and device data.
The Vector: A misconfiguration of a storage server left the data exposed online, meaning anyone with an internet connection could have accessed and downloaded the information.
This breach highlights the critical importance of employing robust practices of credential management, user authentication and validation. An unprotected point of entry on a key piece of equipment like a storage server can lead to a breach with a cascading effect on data security. The detailed personal information, along with the event logs and sensitive company information, can lead to highly effective phishing attacks.
