HYCU, Inc.’s Post

By now most of you may have heard about the CDK Global cyber-attack and hack that happened last week. CDK Globel provides SaaS (Software as a Service) to a large number of North American automotive and equipment companies. CDK’s server(s) were hit with a successful ransomware attack. This is a horrendous example of the cost of these types of attacks as well as the dangers of having all your company’s data on someone else’s servers and relying on SaaS. With this example, we see that if one client’s data is infected the entire network and all SaaS client’s data on that server or series of servers can be hit. SaaS is only as safe as the group of clients that use those services and the cybersecurity measures that the SaaS company employs. This is the thin edge of the wedge. As successful for the hackers as this attack was, be assured SaaS companies can expect more and more cybersecurity attacks. Intra-Play Inc.’s Hybrid Web Applications such as “Zazra” reside on your servers and under your protective control. Do not leave the life blood of your company in someone else’s hand. Control your data and your fate. https://lnkd.in/gwtr7eS7 #cybersecurity #SaaS #softwareasaservice

Sensitive information in SaaS applications can cause significant harm if leaked. Often, files are shared externally with contractors or agencies, increasing the risk. As your security team, we need visibility into shared document settings to close security gaps and prevent leaks–but this isn't as complicated as it may sound! A robust SaaS security solution would include: 1️⃣ Access levels to see if items are publicly or externally shared 2️⃣ A list of "shared with" users 3️⃣ Expiration dates for public links With these simple permissions and pieces of information, Data Safe will ensure your sensitive data remains secure! #DataSafe #CyberSecurity #DataProtection #SaaSSecurity #ITManagement

It’s incredible how one compromised device can lead to millions of customer records being breached. The recent AT&T data breach serves as a stark reminder of the evolving threat landscape. While the exact details of the breach are still unfolding, it's clear that a combination of factors contributed to this significant compromise. One critical issue highlighted by this incident is the reliance on traditional security measures. It seems that in several snowflake related breaches, the companies being breached did not enforce MFA to access. MFA, while essential, is no longer sufficient to protect against sophisticated cyberattacks. The ability for hackers to access and exploit data stored on third-party cloud platforms underscores the need for a more robust, holistic approach to security. At Infinipoint, we believe in a Zero Trust framework that goes beyond MFA. By continuously verifying both user and device identities, we can significantly reduce the risk of unauthorized access. It's time to rethink your organization's security posture. Are you prepared for the next cyberattack?
