  OT Security With new improvements in the field of automotive technology, cars have become more digitized. The concept of connected technology has enabled new in-vehicle capabilities, for example, over-the-air (OTA) updates and features-on-demand (FOD). As we maneuver along the track and appreciate the automotive industry’s benefits, we often seem to impedimental by ever-increasing cybersecurity threats. The automotive industry is speeding up with connected technological updates. Cars have appealing hardware along with intelligent software to exploit the technology like never before. These cars explore the automotive industry via well-defined software for better user interaction along with digitally packed hardware to ensure proper functionality. Both the hardware and software collectively are known as firmware. The firmware is contextually referred to as “operational technology” (OT). OT security is of prime importance for the automotive industry. The cars are loaded with te...

  In today's dynamic business environment, Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) have become critical components for organizations to ensure that they are operating responsibly and ethically. GRC involves managing regulations, risks, and legal obligations that businesses face. It is a complex and ever-evolving field that requires a highly skilled workforce. However, traditional employee training methods are not always effective in preparing employees for the challenges of the GRC workforce. Challenges Faced in Traditional Employee Training Methods Traditional employee training methods such as classroom training, e-learning, and workshops have limitations that hinder their effectiveness. For instance, classroom training can be expensive, time-consuming, and can be challenging for employees who have to travel to attend. On the other hand, e-learning has been criticized for being too theoretical and not engaging enough for learners. Furthermore, workshops often lack personalizat...

  Identity and Access Management Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized every aspect of our lives, including Identity and Access Management (IAM). AI-powered IAM systems provide several benefits. However, it is also essential to understand the limitations of AI and the best practices to follow while implementing AI-powered IAM system  Let’s understand the benefits of incorporating AI into IAM and the best identity and access management solutions you can utilize in your business.    • Better security : AI-powered IAM systems can detect potential threats by analyzing user behavior, time, location, and user actions. With the help of behavioral analysis, AI can establish a detailed profile of general activity patterns and flag any deviation from the norm. In addition, AI can also provide secure authentication using multifactor or risk-based authentication. • Customized and secure experience : AI-powered solutions can provide users a more personalized, secur...

We are in an era where the cyber landscape is rapidly changing. Still, We have also encountered equally unprecedented attacks on OT, IoT and ICS security, with news making attacks like Colonial Pipeline, JBS, Kaseya – and coming to a close with the Log4j vulnerability. As ransomware and threats to OT and IoT systems remain at an all-time high, let us look at what the future holds for both. Geographical tensions: Amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, cyber-attacks will likely exhibit record spikes due to technology bans, financial pressures and diplomatic boycotts. Stoked tensions across international borders are touted to increase now more than ever. Critical infrastructure security is being seen as a must-have element to enforce standards baseline for cybersecurity. Encompassing Government guidelines, mandates, and legislation in combination with self-governance at the sector level will help organizations safeguard their essential data. Zero trust architecture: It is now part of ever...
