We live in an increasingly connected world, where more and more devices and systems are networked and shared with other systems. Convenience is a main driver behind this trend, as people have come to expect the ability to connect to and control devices and systems anywhere, anytime. However, there is a downside to the unprecedented level of convenience provided by the growing number of networked devices, namely increased security risk. Because each device is an endpoint for networks, they introduce the potential to become entry points for hackers and others with malicious intents. In fact, in many of the most high-profile data breaches that have occurred recently, hackers were able to access corporate networks through POS, HVAC and other networked systems that failed to provide an adequate level of security to prevent these types of breaches.

Critical infrastructure owners and operators have managed industrial risk for hundreds of years. This risk is usually measured in impact to health, safety, and reliability. As these industrial systems become increasingly digitized, so does the risk. What were once seen as isolated, manual processes have become reliant on communication networks and digital devices.

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a relatively new computing paradigm that combines machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), remote sensors, and device-control applications (or “apps”) to help businesses and industry achieve more efficient and reliable operations. In the oil and gas field, IIoT is used for a variety of purposes—from fully autonomous pump and valve control to remote sensing of security breaches at isolated wellsites.

Advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have dramatically increased the amount of data generated, creating challenges in data analysis and interpretation. Illumina Connected Analytics (ICA) is a secure genomic data platform to operationalize informatics and drive scientific insights. ICA provides an extensible platform with a rich set of RESTful application program interfaces (APIs) and a command-line interface (CLI) tool to maximize workflow efficiency.

In the evolution of Internet-based technologies, Web 2.0 introduced popular decentralized services that accelerated interactivity between websites and users. Looking to capitalize on this innovation, businesses rushed to launch applications to the market. However, both the Web 2.0 architecture and dependent businesses failed to incorporate key security principles into the design and implementation of these services, resulting in critical vulnerabilities.

Software is an integral part of life for the modern consumer. Nevertheless, most consumers take for granted and are unaware of the software upon which many products and services rely. From the consumer’s perspective, the very notion of what constitutes software may even be unclear. While enabling many benefits to consumers, that software that is, software normally used for personal, family, or household purposes can also have cybersecurity flaws or vulnerabilities which can directly affect safety, property, and productivity.
