The massive data breach at Capital One – America's seventh-largest bank, according to revenue – has challenged many common assumptions about cloud computing for the first time. Ironically, the incident, which exposed some 106 million Capital One customers' accounts, has only reinforced the belief that the cloud remains the safest way to store sensitive data. He wasn't the only voice defending cloud computing in the wake of a hack attack. In an article titled "Don't Doubt the Cloud," Fortune columnist  Robert Hackett , wrote: "The cloud is undeniably convenient and, more importantly, better in terms of security than what the majority of companies can achieve alone." The problem, experts said, was not cloud computing but rather the tendency for companies to become overly-reliant on cloud computing services like Amazon Web Services to oversee all aspects of security, instead of taking full responsibility

Windows 7 Support Ends in January 2020: You Can Still Upgrade to Windows 10 for Free Windows 7 is still a very popular operating system worldwide — as of January 2019, it still ran on over 350 million PCs globally. As a result, when Microsoft announced that it will cease support for the decade-old Windows 7 from January 14, 2020, it became an understandably important factor for the massive base of Windows users.

Hence, if you have a desktop or laptop that still runs on Windows 7, here's what you should know about Microsoft's end of life announcement, and how you should prepare for it.

The call came in less than an hour before the 8 a.m. shift was scheduled to start: A family emergency meant the regular caregiver for an elderly Dana Point, California, client couldn't make her shift that day, so a replacement caregiver was needed ASAP. Homewatch CareGivers of San Juan Capistrano  (Calif.) had to quickly find and send a substitute from its pool of licensed, trained and security-bonded caregivers. Once confirmed to cover the shift, the substitute caregiver tapped into the Homewatch CareGivers "Care+" mobile system to access the client's medical information, such as client care plan and schedules for meals, medications, blood pressure monitoring, doctor visits and more. In the mobile app, the caregiver was able to check in for the shift, confirm timesheet details, and obtain driving directions to the client's home. At the end of the eight-hour workday, the caregiver used the mobile app to capture end-of-shift notes and formally check out

Late last month Facebook announced its  worst-ever security breach  that allowed an unknown group of hackers to steal secret access tokens for millions of accounts by taking advantage of a flaw in the 'View As' feature. At the time of the initial disclosure, Facebook estimated that the number of users affected by the breach could have been around 50 million, though a new update published today by the social media giant downgraded this number to 30 million. Out of those 30 million accounts, hackers successfully accessed personal information from 29 million Facebook users, though the company assured that the miscreants apparently didn’t manage to access any  third-party app data . Facebook vice president of product management Guy Rosen published a new  blog post  Friday morning to share further details on the massive security breach, informing that the hackers stole data from those affected accounts, as follows: For about 15 million Facebook users, attackers

Democratizing Threat Intelligence With Our New Handbook by Chris Pace Just as with any book, during the process of writing “ The Threat Intelligence Handbook ,” we had to make a decision about who it was going to be for. In thinking about the kind of people who could gain the most from a book introducing  threat intelligence , we came to understand that it really was for anyone working in security. This idea that threat intelligence doesn’t need to be the preserve of specialized analysts and dedicated teams is one that we’ve been hearing from our customers for some time. But there is a quite distinct difference between the analysis and production of threat intelligence and its application for better security. That’s why we want to democratize the use of threat intelligence. A healthy democracy requires the universal participation of well-educated and passionate citizens; in the same way, security teams of all stripes not only will benefit from, but have something to contribut
