Cybersecurity Leadership

Blockchain technology will help enable the Fourth Industrial Revolution, but we must act now to secure its large infrastructure and mitigate cyber threats.

For some users, reversibility runs up against the idea of the blockchain. However, it could be a critical tool for fighting hackers and encouraging the mass adoption of cryptocurrency.

Crypto has emerged as a staking horse amid a period of high-profile ransomware attacks. Industry expert Marcus Hutchins weighs in.

Blockchain's ability to circumvent trust issues with intermediaries has been praised. But it still rests on technology with underlying vulnerabilities.

As enterprises adopt blockchain, data security is becoming a growing concern for business leaders. Here is what you can do to address those concerns.

There is an obvious problem with how we approach cyber security. But blockchain may enable a single marketplace of enterprises, consumers, vendors and geographically-diverse security experts to help revise the hiring model, make cyber security more efficient, and decrease the impact of malicious attacks globally.

There is reason to be optimistic about the future of cyber security. In today’s world, there is always a “weak link” in the chain that hackers can exploit. In a blockchain world, there are no longer any weak links and every action taken on the blockchain is part of a completely verifiable and trackable digital ledger.

Spoiler alert: YES, Blockchain can be hacked! The structure of blockchain, combining distributed ledger, consensus on proof of work and proof of stake, encryption by design and linked blocks, provides a lot of layers of protection. This does however not mean that blockchain can’t be hacked at all, it just means that it would take a lot of effort and resources to do so

Many projects involving blockchain technology are still in the early stages, but with cybersecurity, we're beginning to see some real results.

One of blockchain’s benefits is its inherent resiliency in mitigating cyber risks and attacks, particularly those directed at financial institutions.

When security teams take advantage of automation, they can rapidly triage alerts, investigate incidents, contain threats, and protect their companies and customers faster than ever before.

Blockchain can be solution to many currency and banking challenges—eventually As the worlds of online banking and trading, cybercrime, an

A reputable cybersecurity firm compiled a list of the biggest cybersecurity risks for 2018; even blockchain and machine learning may be used.

Known cryptocurrency payments to ransomware hackers “totaled a mere $16 million, compared to nearly $74 million USD in 2021,” blockchain intelligence firm Crystal Blockchain says.

With such nascent technology, what other kinds of emerging threats are out there? And how do we protect ourselves?

From standardization and regulatory perspectives, there will undoubtedly need to be an expansion of crypto-related frameworks to ensure those assets are secure.

Business-minded hackers are testing blockchain technologies to secure their illegal operations. Here's what enterprises can learn from them.

In the world of cybersecurity you will find a "Wonderland" of sorts, comprised of "white hatters," "grey hatters," and "black hatters." But, looking through the security lens, you may be able to see the potential blockchain technology brings to the market. Don't worry though, we are all mad here.

Many leading cybersecurity companies use blockchain technology to prevent data tampering. Also, US healthcare companies are beginning to explore this technology for relevant issues.Storing electronic health records (EHRs) have some disadvantages, but, from now on, decentralized databases promise to revolutionize these documents by building an innovative healthcare structure.

Blockchain technology is hard to ignore as practically everybody’s talking about it. That’s understandable because it’s predicted to disrupt the value flows that underpin business transactions and economies as well as create new business models. It has enormous power to solve business problems. But is a blockchain “distributed ledger” secure?

Blockchain can significantly improve cyber security and here are five applications of blockchain in cyber security that businesses can use today.

Everyone is talking about blockchain, but how secure is it really and what does it mean for your security strategy?

The neverending stream of high-profile, large scale data breaches has lawmakers searching for answers on how hackers are benefiting and how to stop them.

Blockchain has the potential to improve encryption and authentication, and that could be good news for IoT security and DDoS protection.

The "cryptojacking" cybercrime spree that steals PC power to mine Bitcoin cousin Monero is more common than you might guess.
