Lets play catchup

OK, lets play catchup since I’ve last written, and one I did want to write.

• Malware-Driven Card Breach at Hyatt Hotels Dec 23, 2015: This should not be a surprise. This is just going to continue this next year, and if it does, it is going to be a lot worse than it is right now.
• Expect Phishers to Up Their Game in 2016 Dec 21, 2015: This is not a big surprise. The fact of the matter is that those in the security industry are saying this is a big deal, and it is going to get worse. Don’t click unless you’re sure, which most of the time, you may be and could get bitten. I try to let someone know in the message what I’m sending, like the phone logs I send each week, it states what I’m sending.
• Defending against new POS malware with EMV t December 8, 2015: I don’t know how this type of technology will help except from my limited understanding, if thieves get the data, it can’t be used, but even today, I’m still being swiped at most places I go to. I believe only one murchant is using the full EMV technology.
• Why is the health care industry behind in cybersecurity part 1 and part 2 December 2015: This is just sad. I think we’ve talked about this, however, it is worth repeating. We mentioned it a bit in podcast 232 but I wonder how we can really fix this. Maybe we posted this and the prior story, but not sure, and better to be safe than sorry.
• What can we learn to improve cybersecurity in 2016? December 2015: This is a great read. Talks about what has gone on throughout the year, and what we might take from this.
• Are you on the naughty list December 2015: Talks about security and things you should have been doing and if not, and most aren’t, you’re naughty. It talks about things I’ve been saying for years including: checking credit card statements each month, making sure your charges are yours proactively, making sure you have enough money in the bank to pay charges, using a credit card and not a debit card, and much more. There is always room for improvement.

Some of the posts may have been posted, but I’m trying to catch up. Have you missed something? Do you think I need to read something I’ve missed? Send an E-mail and lets chat.
