The holiday season is a critical time for businesses, marked by increased online activity and, consequently, a heightened risk of cyber threats. Our webinar is designed to prepare businesses to defend against these seasonal cybersecurity challenges. This session will provide insights into the latest cyber threats that escalate during the holiday period, such as phishing scams, ransomware attacks, and fraudulent activities that specifically target the surge in e-commerce traffic. The holiday season often brings a surge in the purchase of cost-effective IoT devices, which, while attractive for their accessibility and functionality, can introduce significant vulnerabilities to a business's network. Participants will be guided through the potential cyber threats posed by these devices, including their role in creating entry points for hackers, facilitating DDoS attacks, and compromising business data integrity. 

Key Takeaways
• Insights into holiday scams and how to steer clear of IOT devices that post a risk to your environment
• Coverage into the most successful and headline grabbing Ransomware.
• Deep dive into Botnets and tools that enable ransomware to be devastating.
• Efforts by worldwide policing entities to stop these criminals.
• Learn essential tips for protecting your business with a multi-layered approach.

Tis the Season: Safeguarding Your Business in the Cyber Wonderland

Join Majd Madina from OpenText Cybersecurity as we explore the latest updates to the Microsoft Partner Program.

Microsoft Partner Program - October 2023 Updates

The past year has seen a steady increase in the number and sophistication of malware attacks. Ransomware has been the most prevalent type of malware, with cybercriminals increasingly targeting businesses and organizations. Criminal actors in the Ransomware sector have come up with new “business models” and ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) is dominating. Ransom payments have reached all time sky-high levels. Elite Ransomware authors appear to have concluded that profit sharing and risk mitigation are top contributors to their consistent success and reliable evasion from authorities. Malware payloads are becoming more sophisticated and difficult to detect, and we expect their tactics to be ever evolving.

Nastiest Malware 2023

As the world dives deeper into the digital age, cryptocurrency has emerged as a groundbreaking innovation, reshaping how we perceive and transact value. Yet, like all technologies, it comes with its shadows. Join us for an in-depth exploration of "Crime & Crypto," where we delve into the intricate nexus between digital currency and the criminal underworld.

Key Takeaways:

Ransomware & Crypto: Understand the historical trajectory of crypto being weaponized as the go-to payment mode for ransom demands. Delve into the intricacies of how and why ransomware attacks have become synonymous with crypto transactions.

Stealth & Sabotage: Explore the menacing world of malware specifically designed to pilfer private keys, providing criminals unbridled access to victims' crypto funds. Unravel the technicalities behind these stealthy codes and how they compromise security.

Cryptomining Malware: Dive deep into the covert world of cryptomining malware, which hijacks victims' computational resources to mine cryptocurrency without their knowledge or consent. Learn about the evolution of these malicious scripts and their impact.

Evolving Criminal Tactics: With the rising popularity and value of crypto assets, criminal strategies to pilfer them have also evolved. From phishing schemes to sophisticated hacks, we'll walk you through the transformation of these tactics over the years.

Criminal Use Cases: Beyond theft and ransom, cryptocurrency has found favor among criminals for various nefarious activities. From money laundering to dark web transactions, explore the breadth of criminal use cases that have leveraged crypto's anonymity and decentralization.

Digital currencies promise a future of decentralized and peer-to-peer financial empowerment, but as with all innovations, they can be misused. By understanding the potential pitfalls and threats in the crypto landscape, stakeholders can better safeguard their digital assets and promote a more secure crypto ecosystem.

Crime & Crypto: The Dark Side of Digital Currency

In this final episode, we’ll wrap up what we’ve learned and how to move forward. Eliminating the threat of a ransomware attack is not easy. Hopefully more companies like Gregory Industries will step forward to share their story and encourage collective action.

Episode 2: “This Isn’t Highway Robbery, This is Economic Disruption”

Ransomware comes in all shapes and sizes and from multiple sources. This episode will give us an understanding of what a threat vector is and the risks we all face through our simple day-to-day activities in an interconnected world.

Ransomware:  Episode 1: “You Have Been Encrypted”

Enterprise networks are experiencing a deluge of highly sophisticated threats from motivated attackers. Cloud computing, remote working, and traffic encryption expand the attack surface while making threats harder to detect. Addressing security gaps requires total visibility and a proactive approach to finding threats. This presentation will explore how OpenText Network Detection and Response (NDR) empowers security operations professionals in fast-evolving infrastructures.

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, the risk of cyber threats and attacks is higher than ever before. To combat these threats, businesses need to have a robust cybersecurity strategy in place. One such strategy is Managed Detection and Response (MDR). MDR is a proactive approach to cybersecurity that involves continuous monitoring of a company's network, detection of potential threats, and immediate response to any identified attacks.

During this 15-minute presentation, we will explore the benefits of MDR for businesses of all sizes. We will discuss how MDR can help identify and mitigate potential threats before they cause significant harm, leading to increased protection against data breaches, system downtime, and financial losses. Additionally, we will examine how MDR can free up resources and enable companies to focus on their core business activities while leaving the security concerns to the experts. Finally, we will provide insights into the various MDR solutions available and best practices for selecting the right MDR provider. By the end of this presentation, attendees will have a better understanding of the role MDR plays in modern cybersecurity and how it can help their business stay protected in the ever-evolving digital landscape.
