In a world of weaponized AI, how do we protect ourselves and stay vigilant? I had a mind-expanding chat today with David Brown, CEO of CounterCraft​​ , a cutting-edge cybersecurity firm. They are "ethical hackers"—and we need more of them! If it's true that soon 80% of all the internet's traffic will be bots soon, we're quickly heading towards a world of AI fighting AI. How can we stay optimistic in the face of this? https://lnkd.in/gy_KHMds #CyberSecurity #Futurology #AI

In 2023, the manufacturing industry was the third-most represented industry in Arctic Wolf® Incident Response (IR) ransomware engagements, and fourth-most represented in IR business email compromise (BEC) engagements. (Link in comments) The median cost of a manufacturing ransomware attack responded to by Arctic Wolf Incident Response is now $500,000 USD. Can you ( Mr or Ms. Manufacturer) sustain downtime, interruptions, reputational damage, client data loss and more? We help many of the top local manufacturers in the area protect and defend their business from cyber threats by "making them a hard target" - putting in the defenses that will keep most of the "bad guys" moving on the next victim who hasn't locked their doors and windows.

Thorough Third Party Risk Management goes beyond just information or cyber risk. Assessing and understanding the Business Risks introduced through the relationship should also be monitored and managed. Does your organization know what to do should a critical vendor suddenly become too cost prohibitive or even go away all together? Maybe it's time to take a look?

OS Development seems very slow to modernize. It concerns me that both Windows and Linux OS are so vulnerable to "out of bounds memory read" issues.
