A proposed rule by the Bureau of Industry and Security to control the export of intrusion software platforms has raised considerable interest within the security research community. Some companies worry that vulnerability testing could become much more burdensome under the regulations because of new licensing hurdles.
CSIS is convening a wide range of stakeholders including industry executives, senior policymakers, and security experts to discuss the implementation of the new rule.
2020 may (finally) be over, but scammers are still doing their thing, as evidenced by this phishing email some at MIT have received. Note the link is NOT going to Amazon. If you get it, DELETE it!

Knowing where your assets reside is critical for any organization. Why? Because knowing where your assets reside and which controls apply to them is the only way you can manage and secure them from a potential data breach or security incident. During the initial phases of a SOC 1 or SOC 2 audit, an auditor will walk you through defining the scope of your audit. But what exactly does that entail? The scope of your audit sets boundaries for the assessment. It requires organizations to identify the people, locations, policies and procedures, and technologies that interact with, or could otherwise impact, the security of the information being protected.
The scope of an audit can greatly impact the overall effectiveness of the audit. If the scope is too broad, an auditor could miss critical items during the assessment. If the scope is too narrow, an auditor might not be able to perform an accurate assessment or give an accurate opinion of an organization’s controls because some may have been left out. This is why partnering with an expert, senior-level Information Security Specialist, like those at KirkpatrickPrice, is so critical: if you want to get the most out of your investment in a SOC 1 or SOC 2 audit, effective scoping is key.

According to the Trustwave’s 2013 Global Security Report, cyber-security threats are increasing as quickly as we can implement measures against them. Hackers have lots of different ways to steal your private data and information. And the main reason why hackers go after your personal information is identity theft!
Over the past year, there have been roughly 12.6 million victims of identity theft – or, to put it into perspective, one victim every three seconds. No matter how safe you think you’re being online, chances are you’re making at least a few mistakes that compromise the integrity of your personal information.
