Level up your cyber security! Essential Eight Maturity Level 3 helps organisations harden their defences against skilled attackers. These attackers target weaknesses, exploit new vulnerabilities, and carefully choose high-value targets. #EssentialEight #CyberSecurity

The Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) Essential Eight is a framework that outlines eight strategies to mitigate cyber security risks. Maturity Level One (ML1) focuses on basic security measures, while Maturity Level Two (ML2) focuses on more advanced measures to defend against sophisticated attacks. Here's a table summarising the key differences between ML1 and ML2 for each of the Essential Eight strategies. #Essential8 #CyberSecurity #Cyberprotection

Cybercrime is on the rise, but most attacks are opportunistic. Focus on preventing low-level attacks by implementing the Essential 8 Maturity Level 1. 1- Application Control Limit staff to approved, secure applications. Use application whitelisting to block unauthorized applications. 2- Patch Applications Develop a patching process to quickly deploy security updates. Prioritise critical vulnerability patches. 3- Configure Microsoft Office Macros Deactivate macros unless a justified business need exists. Utilise tools to block macros from running. 4- Application Hardening Simplify applications by removing unnecessary features. Disable functionalities like Flash and JavaScript. 5- Restrict Administrative Privileges Apply the principle of least privilege (PoLP). Grant admin rights only to those who need them. 6-Patch Operating Systems Automate OS updates on endpoints. Designate a time for monthly security patch rollouts on servers. 7- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Implement MFA to require two or more factors for user verification. This can include passwords, one-time codes, or biometrics. 8- Regular Backups Back up critical data daily to a separate system. Regularly monitor and verify the accuracy of backups. #Essential8 #CyberSecurity #Cyberprevention

Cautious optimism about the role of AI in cyber security. A Google Cloud Security Alliance survey revealed a growing confidence in AI for cybersecurity. 63% of IT and security professionals believe AI can significantly improve resilience by automating tasks, identifying new threats, and speeding up incident response. But some skepticism remains (36% were neutral or disagreed), although many companies are already testing the waters with 67% exploring AI for security applications. This suggests cautious optimism about AI's potential to transform cyber security. IT and security professionals see it as a valuable tool, but concerns about development and implementation persist. #AI #cybersecurity #corporatesecurity

While cyber insurance can be a valuable safety net, navigating policy options can be complex. This was highlighted by experts at the RSA 2024 Conference, who emphasised the importance of understanding your business's cyber risk as both a first-party (direct losses) and third-party (legal claims) in a cyber incident. The Virtuelle Group's cyber security consultants can help you navigate this complexity and ensure your chosen policy offers comprehensive coverage for your specific needs and meets compliance requirements. #cyberinsurance #cybersecurity
