4 Network Security Challenges to Watch Out For

Sourced from Travellers The growing reliance on hybrid IT infrastructures that support cloud-based applications and a largely remote workforce is creating network security and performance challenges for many enterprises. According to research from a recent white paper by The Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG), 85 percent of organizations believe network security is more difficult today than it was two years ago. Entitled “Network Security Without Borders: A Common Technology Stack for Network Security and Operations,” the study cites several factors that contribute to the growing challenge of network security. Namely, here are 4 Network Security Challenges to Watch Out For: Increasingly Sophisticated Cyberthreat Tools Monitoring cyberthreats; correlating cyber threat intelligence with interna...

With IoT in Healthcare on the Rise, Security Must Be A Priority says Fortinet

Image sourced from Alpine Security. South Africa is poised to start benefiting from a plethora of healthcare technologies that could dramatically improve patient care at a lower cost, boost preventative healthcare, and take the best medical practitioners virtually to the most underserved regions of the country. However, exciting new developments in healthcare technology could also put patients at risk in both the cyber and real world. This is according to Fortinet South Africa security experts Doros Hadjizenonos and Matthew Taljaard, who warn that the promise of emerging healthcare technologies could be derailed by security risks. Hadjizenonos, Regional Sales Director SADC at Fortinet, says Internet of Things (IoT) and Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) devices are increasingly being adopte...

Internet of threats – cybersecurity measures in the IoT landscape

Internet of Things (IoT) refers to any object or device that is connected to the Internet. This rapidly expanding set of “things” – which capture, send and receive data – includes cars, appliances, smartwatches, lighting, home assistants, home security, and more. It’s predicted that by 2025, there will be 41.6 billion units of IoT connected devices worldwide. Internet-connected devices can make us more efficient, save time and money, and allow us connectivity from almost anywhere, but they also require that we share more information than ever. The security of this information, and the security of these devices, is not always guaranteed. Once a device connects to the Internet, it could be connecting to all sorts of risks. As the number of connected devices increases, especially as more peop...

New IoT System Could Detect Future Virus Outbreaks

Sourced from Getty Images. IoT sensors that monitor body temperature in real-time and are implemented at a large scale could provide geolocation data that would allow potential quarantine areas to be rapidly identified. Through this, the idea is to shut down emerging viruses before a pandemic could take hold. IoT security firm WISeKey says it is working on such a solution. “Using the network of billions of interconnected smart IoT sensors, we can detect the spread of viruses by combining the anonymized digital identity with the behaviour of a person,” the firm says in a press release. Importantly, the company claims its solution can be fully secured and trusted.  A question of privacy /* custom css */ .tdi_3_c05.td-a-rec-img{ text-align: left; }.tdi_3_c05.td-a-rec-img img{ margin: 0 a...
