How Website Security Get Breached: 3 Common Errors and 3 Basic Fixes

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

The bad guys don’t care what—or how much of it—you sell online.

Today’s e-commerce businesses are in hackers’ cross hairs for many reasons, not the least of which is their ease of access. With the Internet as their gateway, every single e-commerce business is an easy target, should they allow themselves to be.

A recently-published Foregenix blog post got me thinking just how important it is for every e-commerce business to understand and proactively address its website security posture. This has taken on added importance in the United States, with the shift to EMV creating increased fraud activity in the e-commerce world.

In its many breach investigations, Foregenix has found that e-commerce firms commonly make one or more of these three errors:

  1. Insecure user access
    • Web-based administration access is located on the default URL or an alternative that can be easily guessed
    • The log-in page is left publicly accessible
    • User credentials are shared among multiple people
    • User credentials are provided to third parties and left inactive when no longer required
    • No password management policy, including no consideration to password complexity or rotation
    • No policy of least privilege for user access, or no user management policy at all
  2. Poor administrative procedures
    • Error pages returning useful information to attackers
    • Unused default applications are left available, for example RSS feeds or file upload functionality
  3. No formal security monitoring and maintenance procedures
    • Not patching and maintaining an up-to-date environment
    • No vulnerability testing
    • Lack of appropriate log files
    • Lack of intrusion detection systems, such as File Integrity Monitoring, Web Application Firewall, etc.
    • No monitoring of log files or intrusion detection systems

The need to focus on your website security is clear.

When you look at this information and factor in the 2017 Verizon DBIR on data breaches, the need to focus on website security is evident. Verizon puts a lot of focus on explaining increased attacks on web applications/web servers. There is a critical need to test web applications for vulnerabilities, as well as to implement a robust web application firewall.

Even with additional layers of website security, the human element is still sinking a lot of organizations in this regard. Every recent study I’ve seen shows that well over 85% of investigated breach incidents involve a phishing attack as a starting point.

Don’t let your site be the hacker’s low-hanging fruit.

Here are three tips for keeping your e-commerce business from becoming the hacker’s low-hanging fruit:

  1. Outline consistent security guidelines to developers and any third-party service providers. Make sure these guidelines include managing remote access to the production environment. Integrated Software Vendors (ISVs) are often unfamiliar with PCI requirements and may not realize how much risk to the security of the data their involvement represents.
  2. Engage with a trusted source(s) for the proper testing of web applications and the implementation of a robust web application firewall.
  3. Know that the human element is key. Security awareness shouldn’t be viewed as a check-the-box process. Instead, implement a process for awareness that tests and tracks employee knowledge about the most common attacks involving phishing, etc.

Public Investment Likely to Contribute Positively to Japanese Economic Growth in Q2

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

In the first quarter of this year, the Japanese economic growth had expanded stronger than anticipated, accelerating 2.2 percent sequentially. This was the fifth straight quarter of expansion for the first time in nearly 11 years. The domestic as well as external demand positively contributed to the real economic activity, with the biggest contribution coming from private consumption amidst a sharp rise in semi-durables spending, along with the ongoing rebound in durables in the past year.

In the meantime, private capital expenditure was up for the second straight quarter, whereas public investment dropped for the third straight quarter. However, public investment’s contribution is expected to be positive in the second quarter as the impacts of the current fiscal support program, under the FY2016 second supplementary budget, gradually unfold, estimated to contribute a total of 0.6 percentage points to the overall economic growth this year, said Eurobank in a research report.

The recent acceleration in Japan’s real economic activity has been mainly driven by surge in export volumes amidst rising global demand, whereas compensation and private growth has decelerated domestically. This shows that the Japanese economy is vulnerable to possible external disturbances, for instance rising protectionist U.S. policies, currently being discussed in the form of a border adjustment, added Eurobank.

Ireland Negara Pertama Miliki Perdana Menteri Gay

Varadkar semasa diumumkan kemenangan di Mansion House, Dublin, Ireland kelmarin.- AFP

DUBLIN – Ireland bakal muncul sebagai negara pertama memiliki Perdana Menteri daripada golongan gay selepas parti pemerintah, Fine Gael memilih Leo Varadkar untuk mengetuai kerajaan baharu.

Lelaki berusia 38 tahun itu akan menggantikan Enda Kenny sekali gus sebagai Perdana Menteri termuda Ireland.

Pencalonan Varadkar sebagai Perdana Menteri akan disahkan oleh Parlimen Ireland yang akan bersidang pada 12 Jun ini.

Kemenangan beliau menandakan titik perubahan untuk Ireland, negara Katolik dan sosial konservatif dengan agensi berita Irish Times menyifatkannya sebagai ‘harapan baru’.

Dalam ucapannya, Varadkar berkata, beliau ‘gembira dan berasa rendah diri’ di atas kemenangannya serta berterima kasih dengan sokongan kuat daripada Ahli-ahli Parlimen semasa berdepan dengan pencabar, Simon Coveney.

“Saya tahu ketika bapa saya mengembara sejauh 8,000 kilometer untuk menetap di Ireland, saya pasti dia tidak pernah bermimpi bahawa anaknya suatu hari membesar menjadi pe*mimpin negara itu.

“Walaupun terdapat perbezaan, anaknya diberi layanan sama dan dihakimi berdasarkan tindakan dan wataknya dan bukan asal usul atau identitinya,” katanya sambil disambut dengan tepukan dan sorakan di Mansion House, Dublin.

Beliau mendedahkan mengenai pendirian seksnya beberapa bulan sebelum referendum pada tahun 2015 yang menjadikan Ireland negara pertama di dunia membenarkan perkahwinan sejenis.

“Saya seorang lelaki gay. Itu bukan rahsia, tetapi bukan juga sesuatu yang semua orang perlu tahu,” katanya semasa ditemu bual stesen penyiaran tempatan, RTE.

Varadkar yang merupakan ahli parti Fine Gael sejak remaja memenangi pemilihan pemimpin itu dengan 60 peratus undi berbanding satu-satunya pencabarnya, Coveney yang merupakan Menteri Perumahan dengan 40 peratus undi.

Beliau meraih sokongan 51 daripada 73 Ahli Parlimen partinya berbanding 22 menyokong Coveney. – AFP/Kosmo
