Most banking applications are built on earlier architectures and technologies and pose significant security challenges, especially under the new Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards 4.0 (PCI DSS). These applications face greater risk due to coding practices at development time and the absence of modern security features like Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). Enhancing these applications with MFA is a necessity to protect against unauthorized access and data breaches.

Expanding on their leadership positions in HPE NonStop Backup Storage Management and Cybersecurity Threat Detection, the latest partnership delivers enhanced levels

2024 promises to be a year marked by unprecedented challenges and innovations. Picture this: a bustling metropolis where the heartbeat

In the realm of cybersecurity and data protection, the HPE NonStop customer community recently gathered for a momentous occasion, marking their return to the Nordic stage after a seven-year hiatus.

In the world of technology, the annual NonStop Technical Bootcamp (TBC) has long been an essential event for HPE NonStop professionals, and this year’s edition in September 2023 was no exception.

PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) compliance is a set of security standards with which organizations who handle payment card data must comply. The purpose of these standards is to ensure that sensitive information like credit card numbers and personal data are protected from unauthorized access and theft.

As we enter 2023, the cybersecurity threat landscape evolves and expands. From the rise of IoT cloud-based attacks to an increased focus on edge computing and IoT devices, organizations must stay vigilant in their efforts to

Many organizations have a cloud migration strategy for their mission-critical workloads to offer flexibility, scalability, and business continuity. There are many reasons for migrating to the cloud.

As mentioned in my last post, Cloud was the big topic for the 2022 NonStop Technical Boot Camp.

With his opening words, “It’s not where we are headed but how fast we will get there,” the boss of all things NonStop, Jeff Kyle, set the tone for the latest NonStop Technical Boot Camp (NonStop TBC 22). “We are a platform and not a server; the platform we are perfecting for mission critical applications. We create the data and we transact the data!”

In March 2022, the PCI Security Standards Council released the new Payments Card Industry Data Security Standard version 4.0 (PCI

Where manageability and security meet for a common goal The database manageability experience is in constant evolution. Not only because

In most mission critical environments, SAP HANA is the lifeblood of an organization. SAP HANA (High-performance ANalytic Appliance) is a highly performant, highly scalable in-memory database that serves as a platform for enterprise resource planning (ERP) applications and other business workloads that need to analyze data in real time.

The probability that an organization will experience a breach in the next 24 months is high and the current time to identify and contain a breach is still 280 days. XYPRO security solutions reduce the meantime to detect, and the resources required to respond to potential breaches by up to 80%, dramatically reducing the impact of a breach on your enterprise.

Well, we made it. 2021 is finally in the books. The gift of LOG4J and the onslaught of vendor emails made for an eventful end to 2021. Take a minute (and I only mean a minute) to catch your breath before we jump headfirst into 2022. It’s time to look forward to what the cybersecurity landscape will give us this year.

Have we become numb to the news of security breaches? Unfortunately, the attacks on our businesses, personal lives and even global infrastructure are not slowing down. Cybercrime is up over 600% during the pandemic. According to Verizon’s 2021 Data Breach Investigation Report, 61% of cyberattacks targeted credential theft. This far surpasses personal, banking and payment card information which have been primary targets for years. The cybersecurity industry has responded with a variety of ways to protect sensitive data with regulations, technology, and awareness, which has forced attackers to look for easier targets, such as usernames and passwords.

The General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, is a major piece of legislation adopted in 2018. It is designed to address the protection and responsible use of every European Union citizen’s personal data. However, GDPR is not an EU-only regulation. It affects ANY business or individual handling the data of EU citizens, regardless of where that business or individual is based.

CashApp, Zelle, Venmo, ApplePay, Square – the payments industry is growing and expanding into areas we hadn’t imagined. Everyone relied on it before the pandemic – now it’s critical infrastructure and embedded into our everyday habits.

A recent industry phishing report showed that 4% of users are prone to click on anything sent to them. That is a scary statistic given that phishing is one of the primary methods ransomware attacks are carried out.

In the international banking industry, falling behind in meeting audit standards while identifying security threats is not an option. The stakes are simply too high.

Since the release of PCI-DSS 3.0 in 2013, the PCI Security Standards Council has been quite busy. A little over a year after it was published, the council released PCI-DSS 3.1, followed by several new templates and supplements, including the “Migrating from SSL and early TLS Information Supplement” in April 2015 which highlighted the risks of SSL and TLS 1.0. The supplement described a migration plan as well as set a migration deadline of 1 July, 2016.

COVID-19 and its security ramifications continue in 2021 and well beyond. All of the threats brought to the fore when we were sent to work from home got added to the already-growing set of risks we were already trying to mitigate.
