Last week's ACS (Australian Computer Society) Qld Tech Summit provided lots of food for thought. 🤔 As an ever evolving topic, the currency of the panel discussion on the Cyber Security Landscape 🔐 provided many valuable insights, here are a few : 1️⃣ Cyber Criminals are at the forefront of using AI (no surprises there), but what was interesting is the innovative work being done by teams here in Qld to use AI to combat these attacks. 💡 2️⃣ A Small Business Cyber Standard, SMB1001, has been developed to support SMEs and acts as a stepping stone to ISO27001. 📜 3️⃣ Qld Government is supporting paid Cyber Traineeships as a faster way to get resources into this rapidly growing area. 🎓 4️⃣ Risk mitigation approaches such as regular reviews ensuring any data collection is relevant to your business strategy. ✅️ I would love to hear other's experience with gaining the SMB1001 certification - if you're either undertaking yourself or providing B2B services? #cybersecurity #SMB1001 #privacy Luisa Grant GAICD Ryan Ko Jamie Wilson Adam Green Jodie Siganto

🎯 Unlike traditional attacks that aim for a quick grab and disappear, Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) are designed for long-term infiltration and data exfiltration. They operate silently, often for months or even years, without raising any alarms. This extended dwell time allows them to gather vast amounts of sensitive information and inflict significant damage before detection. APTs are highly selective, focusing on specific organizations or individuals with valuable data or critical infrastructure. This means they can tailor their attacks to specific vulnerabilities and exploit them for maximum impact. The consequences of an APT attack can be catastrophic. They can steal sensitive data, disrupt critical infrastructure, and compromise national security. 🔔 Stay connected for industry’s latest content – Follow Dr. Anil Lamba, CISSP #linkedin #teamamex #JPMorganChase #cybersecurity, #technologycontrols, #infosec, #informationsecurity, #GenAi #linkedintopvoices, #cybersecurityawareness #innovation #techindustry #cyber #birminghamtech #cybersecurity #fintech #careerintech #handsworth #communitysupport #womenintech #technology #security #cloud #infosec #riskassessment #informationsecurity #auditmanagement #informationprotection #securityaudit #cyberrisks #cybersecurity #security #cloudsecurity #trends #grc #leadership #socialmedia #digitization #cyberrisk #education #Hacking #privacy #datasecurity #passwordmanagement #identitytheft #phishingemails #holidayseason #bankfraud #personalinformation #creditfraud

🔒 Day 47 of my Cyber Security Challenge: Exploring Information Gathering (Reconnaissance)! 🔍🌐 Today, I dived into the critical first phase of ethical hacking and cybersecurity: information gathering, also known as reconnaissance. This stage is essential for understanding potential targets and identifying vulnerabilities. 🔍 Studied the fundamentals of reconnaissance, learning how to gather information about networks, systems, and organizations in a systematic and ethical manner. 🌐 Explored various techniques for passive and active information gathering, including OSINT (Open Source Intelligence), DNS queries, and network scanning tools. 💡 Learned about the importance of reconnaissance in the overall penetration testing process, providing insights that help shape subsequent testing phases. 🛡️ Examined the ethical and legal considerations of reconnaissance, ensuring that all activities are conducted within legal boundaries and with proper authorization. With a comprehensive understanding of information gathering techniques, I’m now better equipped to identify potential security weaknesses and enhance overall cybersecurity posture. Stay tuned for more updates as I continue this enlightening Cyber Security journey! 💻🔒 #CyberSecurity #InformationGathering #Reconnaissance #LearningJourney 🔍🌐
