Audio Report: ISMG Editors Analyze the Latest Developments
What's the cost of a data breach to the typical enterprises: $200,000 or $7 million? In this latest edition of the ISMG Security Report, you'll hear an explanation why estimates from The Rand Corp. and Ponemon Institute vary so widely.
Also in the report, you'll hear:
- ISMG's Jeremy Kirk analyze the breach of the computer system of a Tesla model;
- DataBreachToday Executive Editor Mathew J. Schwartz explain the significance of a new SWIFT initiative to help financial institutions better detect attempted fraud; and
- About Yahoo claiming that a state-sponsored actor hacked its network in 2014, pilfering information of customers contained in at least a half-billion accounts.
The ISMG Security Report appears on this and other ISMG websites on Tuesdays and Fridays. Be sure to check out our Sept. 16 and Sept. 20 reports, which respectively analyze the ISMG Fraud and Breach Prevention Summit in Toronto and a new self-assessment tool that's intended to show whether an enterprise's cyber-risk initiative aligns with its goals and strategy.
