Four Things Every CEO Should Know About Ransomware

Our Research Analyst, Satyajit Sinha will be speaking at the RoboBusiness Webinar on July 9th 2020 at 2 PM EST. The topic of the webinar is “Cybersecurity and Robotics Systems: Vulnerabilities and Solutions”. One class of edge products, rarely mentioned in the typical IoT discussions and analyses, also provide for actuation. That is, they are robotic devices. Like other ‘connected’ IoT devices, robotics systems are open to security threats, which can be one roadblock to their widespread deployments. In this session, Counterpoint Research’s Satyajit Sinha will discuss current and future cyber security threats to networked robotics systems, highlighting their vulnerabilities in the process. He will also describe various cyber security solutions and provide a competitive landscape of security solutions for robotics systems.

Digital transformation and rapid cloud adoption massively impact security postures for organizations of all sizes. The new world of zero perimeters and separation of data storage, compute, and consumption requires a new, holistic approach to access security and provisioning. In their latest Hype Cycle for Data Security 2022, Gartner expands on a new concept—Data Security Governance. Specifically, Data Security Platforms as a modern approach to comprehensive data security and access controls in a world demanding more, faster access to data.

Data is among an organization’s most valuable assets. Its management and protection should be viewed as a mission-critical stewardship rather than mere compliance. Larger and more costly cybersecurity incidents coincide with annually increasing regulatory and liability pressures. Looming U.S. privacy legislation on the horizon coupled with the General Data Protection Regulation’s impacts (Google recently received a $57 million fine), intensifies pressure on organizations to understand their legal compliance obligations and to safeguard private information.
