California Enacts the ‘First Truly Sweeping Privacy Regime’ in Record Time

July 5th, 2018|Categories: HB Risk Notes|Tags: , , |

The California legislature -- apparently not wanting to be pegged as just another slow-moving governing body -- took the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 from proposal to passage to signing in one week. Critics weren't sitting on their hands either. "Businesses Blast California’s New Data-Privacy Law," read one headline in the Wall Street Journal. For consumers, Californians anyway, the good news is that they can refuse to allow companies to sell their personal data. But, the WSJ reported, business across the country say the law will cause "far-reaching damage to everything from retailers’ customer-loyalty programs to data gathering by Silicon Valley tech giants." Law firms are cranking out their advisories and analyses. Sullivan & Cromwell says the CCPA establishes a new privacy framework for covered businesses by: "Creating an expanded definition of personal information for purposes of the Act; "Creating new data privacy rights for California consumers, including rights to know, access, have deleted and opt out of the sale of their personal information; "Imposing special rules for the collection of consumer data from minors; and "Creating a new and potentially severe statutory damages framework for violations of the Act and for businesses that fail to implement reasonable security procedures and practices to prevent data breaches." The firm also offered a quick comparison between the CCPA and the GDPR.  "At a high [...]

Healthcare Cyber Attacks 2017 Report from CryptoniteNXT

February 10th, 2018|Categories: HB Risk Notes|Tags: , , , , , |

In boxing your trainer will tell you to keep your eyes open and your head and feet moving. After all, it's way harder to land a solid punch on a moving target. According to the Healthcare Cyber Research Report for 2017 by CryptoniteNXT the same is true for healthcare organizations. In just the ransomware category alone, they experienced an 89% increase of attacks last year. "Health care networks will remain under persistent attack by cyberattackers that target their valuable data through the use of well understood vulnerabilities," the CryptoniteNXT report reads. "It becomes imperative to deploy a comprehensive strategy both to detect and deter the sophisticated attacker moving through the network, as well as the multitudes of ransomware tools that they will deploy into 2018 and 2019." "New best practices and the technologies that support them," the report continues, "such as moving target cyber defense (MTD) and network micro-segmentation, can detect and defeat many of the attacks leveraged by vulnerabilities found in most health care networks. MTD and network level micro-segmentation technology sets can directly address the inherent weakness in TCP/IP networks. By building out a Zero Trust environment health care institutions can directly address the top vulnerability use cases that exist in their networks today. The decision to deploy moving target cyber defense and network micro-segmentation technologies shut down reconnaissance and [...]
