Vulnerability Management In the Time of a Pandemic

The number of records exposed in 2020 increased to a staggering 36 billion by the end of Q3. There were 2,935 publicly reported breaches in the first three quarters of 2020, with the three months of Q3 adding an additional 8.3 billion records to what was already the “worst year on record.”

Breach disclosures continue to be well below the high water mark established just last year despite other research indicating that the number of attacks are on the rise. How do we square these two competing views into the digital threat landscape? In this webinar we present findings from our latest Data Breach QuickView Report and explore factors that may be contributing to the decline in publicly reported breaches, including the impact of COVID on media coverage, and the latest ransomware trends.

Attempts to influence elections are nothing new, but modern digital platforms open the door for meddling to be carried-out in real-time and at a much greater scale. Join leading cybersecurity specialists as they look at the rise of hacktivism, vulnerabilities in electronic voting machines (EVMs) and more.

IT Security Teams and Vulnerability Managers can’t seem to catch a break. While COVID-19 has severely impacted IT staffing and budgets, the vulnerability disclosure landscape has continued to keep us on our toes. Brian Martin looks into the latest vulnerability trends from mid year 2020, and how IT professionals can effectively respond to maintain the security of their businesses.

Data breach reports are down 52% in the first half of 2020, yet the number of records exposed crossed an alarming 27 billion. Something doesn't add up. Inga Goddijn investigates the discrepancy, explores what the data is telling us about the impact of COVID on reporting, and reveals what it means for protecting your business.

Reported breaches in Q1 2020 decreased by 58% compared to Q1 2019, reflecting disruption from COVID-19, yet records exposed skyrocketed to 8.4 billion - a 273% increase.

In this webinar, Inga Goddijn looks into these and more findings from the Q1 2020 Data Breach QuickView report, breaking down what we've learned, how Coronavirus has impacted the landscape so far, and what it means for the rest of 2020.

We scheduled this discussion to talk about the trends we’re seeing in the vulnerability data from 2019, but guess what; that seems like a lifetime ago now. So we’ve shifted focus. Instead, we want to use this time to try to do something more valuable for our community. We want to rise to this moment and confront these new challenges we’re all facing head on. No nonsense, this isn’t a product demo, just a focused look at the state of vulnerability intelligence and how it applies in this new, changing time. Here’s what we’ve got:

The Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic continues to change our way of life, while threatening the global economy, but the work of risk management professionals is more important, and threatened, than ever. Over 22,000 vulnerabilities were aggregated by our VulnDB team during 2019. Brian Martin breaks down what we’ve learned, and how we apply that knowledge to a mid-pandemic world, where cyber criminals exploit the panic, hospitals are hit by ransomware, supply chains are disrupted, and key regulations are temporarily weakened.

There were 7,098 breaches reported in 2019, exposing over 15.1 billion records, a new worst year on record. In this webinar, Inga Goddijn presents this and more findings from the new 2019 Year End QuickView report, breaking down what we've learned and what it means for 2020.

Data breaches have become an inescapable fact of life, impacting thousands of organizations every year and exposing billions of sensitive records. Join us for an entertaining and informative look back at the events that shaped 2018 and the trends that will continue to be felt into 2019.

Join us for a fun and informative look at the breach activity that has shaped the first nine months of 2018. Will take a look at the stats, check in with some of our assumptions from Q1 and of course take a deep dive into a few of the more interesting breaches that came to light in Q3.

Over 600 data breaches were disclosed in the first three months of 2018. While headlines can make for some interesting reading, what can we learn from these incidents to help improve security practices and lower the risk of breach event? Join Risk Based Security for a fun and informative look at the breaches and trends shaping the data loss landscape during the first quarter of 2018. We'll be covering our research and reviewing our findings from the Q1 Data Breach QuickView Report, including a closer look at the Facebook / Cambridge Analytica event and whether it should be characterized as a "breach".
