Understanding Sensitive Data Types and Data Protected Under HIPAA, PCI DSS

Data breaches today can have devastating consequences for organizations, leading to financial losses, legal repercussions, and irreparable damage to reputation. Sensitive digital data is the prime target for cybercriminals, and a single breach can compromise millions of business-critical records and cripple operations. This makes understanding and complying with data privacy laws critical. These laws not only safeguard individuals’ rights and control over their information, but also provide a clear framework for organizations to handle data responsibly. Failing to comply can result in hefty fines, operational disruptions, and loss of consumer trust. By prioritizing data security and staying informed about evolving privacy regulations, organizations avoid legal pitfalls and build trust with stakeholders to foster a sustainable future in the digital age.

Ransomware Prevention Best Practices

Ransomware infection is one of the most destructive cybersecurity threats today, leaving a trail of compromised data, operational disruptions, and monetary and reputational losses. While complete immunity against ransomware is a myth, proactive security measures can significantly reduce your risk and mitigate the impact of an attack. The CYRISMA platform can be a powerful ally in this fight, offering a rich set of features to prevent and recover from attacks. In this blog post, we explore best practices for ransomware prevention, and how CYRISMA’s various features work together to create multiple layers of defense against ransomware.

Hardware and Software Asset Inventories: Why they Matter

Organizations today rely heavily on a complex network of interconnected hardware and software assets. From desktops and mobile devices to critical applications and network infrastructure, these assets store sensitive data, support vital functions, and ultimately contribute to an organization’s success. However, effectively managing and protecting these assets requires a clear understanding of what you have and where it is. This is where comprehensive hardware and software inventories come into play.

Keeping Common Cyber Threats at Bay

A few critical cybersecurity controls implemented correctly and monitored regularly can go a long way towards preventing data breaches. The trick, for organizations wanting to stay protected against the most common cyber threats, is to first get the basics right and use these essential controls as the foundation for building more complex controls over time.

NIST CSF 2.0 – The New Govern Function

The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) version 2.0, set to be released this year, adds a new Govern function to the CSF core. The five functions that currently form the core of the Framework are Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond and Recover.
