Looking for help with shadow AI? Want to boost your software updates’ safety? New publications offer valuable tips. Plus, learn why GenAI and data security have become top drivers of cyber strategies. And get the latest on the top “no-nos” for software security; the EU’s new cyber law; and CISOs’ communications with boards.

Dive into six things that are top of mind for the week ending Oct. 25.

1 - CSA: How to prevent “shadow AI” 

As organizations scale up their AI adoption, they must closely track their AI assets to secure them and mitigate their cyber risk. This includes monitoring the usage of unapproved AI tools by employees — an issue known as “shadow AI.”

So how do you identify, manage and prevent shadow AI? You may find useful ideas in the Cloud Security Alliance’s new “AI Organizational Responsibilities: Governance, Risk Management, Compliance and Cultural Aspects” white paper.

The white paper covers shadow AI topics including:

  • Creating a comprehensive inventory of AI systems
  • Conducting gap analyses to spot discrepancies between approved and actual AI usage
  • Implementing ways to detect unauthorized AI wares
  • Establishing effective access controls
  • Deploying monitoring techniques

 

 

“By focusing on these key areas, organizations can significantly reduce the risks associated with shadow AI, ensuring that all AI systems align with organizational policies, security standards, and regulatory requirements,” the white paper reads.

For example, to create an inventory that offers the required visibility into AI assets, the document explains different elements each record should have, such as:

  • The asset’s description
  • Information about its AI models
  • Information about its data sets and data sources
  • Information about the tools used for its development and deployment
  • Detailed documentation about its lifecycle, regulatory compliance, ethical considerations and adherence to industry standards
  • Records of its access control mechanisms

Shadow AI is one of four topics covered in the publication, which also unpacks risk management; governance and compliance; and safety culture and training.

2 - Best practices for secure software updates

The security and reliability of software updates took center stage in July when an errant update caused massive and unprecedented tech outages globally.

To help prevent such episodes, U.S. and Australian cyber agencies have published “Safe Software Deployment: How Software Manufacturers Can Ensure Reliability for Customers.”

“It is critical for all software manufacturers to implement a safe software deployment program supported by verified processes, including robust testing and measurements,” reads the 12-page document.

Although the guide is aimed primarily at commercial software vendors, its recommendations can be useful for any organization with software development teams that deploy updates internally.

 

 

The guide outlines key steps for a secure software development process, including planning; development and testing; internal rollout; and controlled rollout. It also addresses errors and emergency protocols.

“A safe software deployment process should be integrated with the organization’s SDLC, quality program, risk tolerance, and understanding of the customer’s environment and operations,” reads the guide, authored by the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the FBI and the Australian Cyber Security Centre.

3 - Report: GenAI, attack variety, data security drive cyber strategies

What issues act as catalysts for organizations’ cybersecurity actions today? Hint: They’re fairly recent concerns. The promise and peril of generative AI ranks first. It’s closely followed by the ever growing variety of cyberattacks; and by the intensifying urgency to protect data.

That’s according to CompTIA’s “State of Cybersecurity 2025” report, based on a survey of almost 1,200 business and IT pros in North America and in parts of Europe and Asia. 

These three key factors, along with others like the scale of attacks, play a critical role in how organizations currently outline their cybersecurity game plans.

“Understanding these drivers is essential for organizations to develop proactive and adaptive cybersecurity strategies that address the evolving threat landscape and safeguard their digital assets,” reads a CompTIA blog about the report.

Organizations are eagerly trying to understand both how generative AI can help their cybersecurity programs and how this technology is being used by malicious actors to make cyberattacks harder to detect and prevent.

Meanwhile, concern about data protection has ballooned in the past couple of years. “As organizations become more data-driven, the need to protect sensitive information has never been more crucial,” reads the blog.

Not only are organizations focused on securing data at rest, in transit and in use, but they’re also creating foundational data-management practices, according to the report.

“The rise of AI has accelerated the need for robust data practices in order to properly train AI algorithms, and the demand for data science continues to be strong as businesses seek competitive differentiation,” the report reads.

4 - CISA lists software dev practices most harmful for security

Recommended best practices abound in the cybersecurity world. However, CISA and the FBI are taking the opposite tack in their quest to improve the security of software products: They just released a list of the worst security practices that software manufacturers ought to avoid.

Titled “Product Security Bad Practices,” the document groups the “no-nos” into three main categories: product properties; security features; and organizational processes and policies.

“It’s 2024, and basic, preventable software defects continue to enable crippling attacks against hospitals, schools, and other critical infrastructure. This has to stop,” CISA Director Jen Easterly said in a statement.

“These product security bad practices pose unacceptable risks in this day and age, and yet are all too common,” she added.

 

 

Here are some of the worst practices detailed in the document, which is part of CISA’s “Secure by Design” effort:

  • Using programming languages considered “memory unsafe”
  • Including user-provided input in SQL query strings
  • Releasing a product with default passwords
  • Releasing a product with known and exploited vulnerabilities
  • Not using multi-factor authentication
  • Failing to disclose vulnerabilities in a timely manner

Although the guidance is aimed primarily at software makers whose products are used by critical infrastructure organizations, the recommendations apply to all software manufacturers.

If you’re interested in sharing your feedback with CISA and the FBI, you can submit comments about the document until December 16, 2024 on the Federal Register.

5 - New EU law focuses on cybersecurity of connected digital products

Makers of digital products — both software and hardware — that directly or indirectly connect to networks and to other devices will have to comply with specific cybersecurity safeguards in the European Union.

A newly adopted law known as the “Cyber Resilience Act” outlines cybersecurity requirements for the design, development, production and lifecycle maintenance of these types of products, including IoT wares such as connected cars.

 

 

For example, it specifies a number of “essential cybersecurity requirements” for these products, including that they:

  • Aren’t shipped with known exploitable vulnerabilities
  • Feature a “secure by default” configuration
  • Can fix their vulnerabilities via automatic software updates
  • Offer access protection via control mechanisms, such as authentication and identity management
  • Protect the data they store, transmit and process using, for example, at-rest and in-transit encryption

“The new regulation aims to fill the gaps, clarify the links, and make the existing cybersecurity legislative framework more coherent, ensuring that products with digital components (...) are made secure throughout the supply chain and throughout their lifecycle,” reads a statement from the EU’s European Council.

The law will “enter into force” after its publication in the EU’s official journal and will apply and be enforceable 36 months later, so most likely in October 2027 or November 2027. However, some of its provisions will be enforceable a year prior.

6 - UK cyber agency: CISOs must communicate better with boards

CISOs and boards of directors are struggling to understand each other, and this is increasing their organizations’ cyber risk, new research from the U.K.’s cyber agency has found.

For example, in one alarming finding, 80% of respondents, which included board members, CISOs and other cyber leaders in medium and large enterprises, confessed to being unsure of who is ultimately accountable for cybersecurity in their organizations.

“We found that in many organisations, the CISO (or equivalent role) thought that the Board was accountable, whilst the Board thought it was the CISO,” reads a blog about the research titled “How to talk to board members about cyber.”

As a result, the U.K. National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has released new guidance aimed at helping CISOs better communicate with their organizations’ boards titled “Engaging with Boards to improve the management of cyber security risk.”

“Cyber security is a strategic issue, which means you must engage with Boards on their terms and in their language to ensure the cyber risk is understood, managed and mitigated,” the document reads.

Here’s a small sampling of the advice:

  • Understand your audience, including who are the board’s members and their areas of expertise; and how the board works, such as its meeting formats and its committees.
  • Talk about cybersecurity in terms of risks, and outline these risks concretely and precisely, presenting them in a matter-of-fact way.
  • Don’t limit your communication with board members to formal board meetings. Look for opportunities to talk to them individually or in small groups outside of these board meetings.
  • Elevate the discussions so that you link cybersecurity with your organization’s business challenges, goals and context.
  • Aim to provide a holistic view, and avoid using technical jargon.
  • Aim to advise instead of to educate.

What econ says in the shadows

By www.npr.org
Published On :: Sat, 16 Dec 2023 02:31:16 +0000

Economics Job Market Rumors is a website that's half a job information Wiki, where people post about what's going on inside economics departments, and half a discussion forum, where anyone with an internet connection can ask the economics hive mind whatever they want. All anonymously.

People can talk about finding work, share rumors, and just blow off steam. And that steam can get scaldingly hot. The forum has become notorious for racist and sexist posts, often attacking specific women and people from marginalized backgrounds.

Last year, economist Florian Ederer and engineer Kyle Jensen discovered a flaw in the way the site gave anonymity to its users. The flaw made it possible to identify which universities and institutions were the sources of many of the toxic posts on the site. And helped answer a longstanding question that's dogged the economics profession: was the toxicity on EJMR the work of a bunch of fringey internet trolls, or was it a symptom of a much deeper problem within economics itself?

Cultivating Our Future: Student Shadow Program Fuels Industry Interest jhammond@desti… Tue, 07/30/2024 - 18:28

Despite the workforce development obstacles we face, the tourism industry offers countless professional opportunities for future generations. Destination organizations can work with local community partners to create meaningful engagement with underrepresented youth, increase industry awareness, and foster inclusion.  

This article highlights the experiences of three high school students with the NAACP Hillsborough County Chapter who shadowed industry professionals at Destinations International’s 2024 Annual Convention in Tampa. It serves as inspiration for destinations to embrace similar initiatives to drive workforce development and diversification.  

Ava Wells
7 min read

For so many of us in the tourism industry, the question “how did you get started” is often followed by a smile, a laugh, and a realization that it happened unintentionally. While some may have formally studied hospitality, most industry professionals find themselves in destination organizations through traditional channels like hotels or convention centers. Despite where we began or where our paths have led us, we share a deep passion for our work. Last week at Destinations International’s 2024 Annual Convention in Tampa, it was hard not to hear the words “I love this industry!” passing from person to person, like the catchy chorus to a chart-topping summer hit.

Yet, we realize talent attraction and retention are two enormous challenges our industry faces. A recent study on emerging leaders published by FiredUp! Culture and SearchWide Global found that 48% of 358 30 Under 30 honorees no longer work for a destination organization. Of those still employed by destination organizations, 27% indicate they will not be working for their organizations in three years’ time. Meanwhile, Destinations International’s 2023 Social Inclusion Study on Destination Organizations found that while 73% of over 450 employees want to see more diversity in their organizations, the reality is from it.  

It’s no surprise then, that eight sessions at Destinations International’s 2024 Annual Convention addressed challenges and insights surrounding workforce development and diversification. These conversations served as a springboard to educate and inspire the nearly 2,000 industry leaders in attendance. From talent development to upward mobility, to pay equity and beyond, opportunities are abundant. And while much of this work will be long-term, creative solutions may be closer to home – and easier to implement - than we think. 

Community Partnerships Build Career Paths

Destinations International’s Social Inclusion framework encourages destinations to engage with their communities. By fostering trust and working together to eliminate barriers to inclusion, destination organizations and their stakeholders can create thriving and welcoming environments that lead to economic growth. Through this lens, talent attraction and retention can be addressed by engaging with our communities. When destinations establish a trusted presence, they can highlight the importance of this industry and create career pathways for residents of all backgrounds and abilities.  

The 2024 Annual Convention served as a tangible and inspiring opportunity for Visit Tampa Bay (VTB) and the NAACP Hillsborough County Chapter. Through an existing strong relationship, VTB’s Chief Operating Officer, JoLynn Lokey and Hillsborough County Chapter President, Yvette Lewis connected with DI’s Sophia Hyder Hock to explore arrangements during the July event. Lewis welcomed the idea of bringing three high school students onsite, providing them with the opportunity to gain exposure to the industry.  

She appointed three rising seniors, Malachi Brown, Kaejah Evans, and Taleah Scott, to attend the Annual Convention. Each student was given a curated schedule based on their interests to shadow industry leaders, attend educational sessions, and expand their professional network. In two jam-packed days, Malachi, Kaejah, and Taleah explored the breadth of our industry, through marketing and creative lenses, event management, and technology. Their experiences were overwhelmingly positive: the students realized that tourism offers promising, professional career paths and above all is a welcoming, inclusive sector.  

In Their Own Words

Malachi Brown, Middleton High School 

"To start I just wanted to say thank you for even thinking about exposing high school students to this industry, it was not on my radar at all but now I can seriously see a future in this space. My first thought about the travel and tourism industry was a whole bunch of timeshares and hotel managers. Being at Destinations International showed me that there is an entire ecosystem of business that is behind the scenes. Whatever internship, schooling, or even career I will pursue can be translated to the travel and tourism industry, from sales, marketing, data analytics, and more can all be done here and that has truly inspired me. The main highlights were interacting with so many people that were genuinely interested in making sure I was welcomed and comfortable. Connecting with all these amazing professionals not only expanded my network but expanded my horizons by learning and listening to everyone’s insights. Special shout out to the team at Soliman Productions and Paradise Advertising & Marketing for letting a brother tag along for a couple of days.”  - Malachi Brown

Kaejah Evans, Blake High School 

"Destinations International’s Annual Convention was one of the best experiences I could’ve been a part of. I’m truly grateful to have been a part of the convention and met such amazing people from such diverse backgrounds. Before attending the convention, I had a very small amount of information and interest in the world of travel and tourism. After meeting so many people that are a part of this company showed me an even bigger and more in-depth understanding of how great working in this level of hospitality can benefit someone. I’ve learned about some programs and have been introduced to several internships that I’d enjoy taking part in once I graduate.” - Kaejah Evans

Taleah Scott, Sumner High School 

"I truly enjoyed my time interacting with people who are passionate about their careers. The main highlight of my time at Destination International's Convention was attending the breakout sessions of my interest. Not only did it make me feel in control of the steps I'm taking toward my future, but it also exposed me to different aspects of the travel and tourism industry. I originally had no connection to the field, so I wasn't sure what to expect. To my surprise, the travel and tourism industry makes great efforts to follow sustainable practices and be mindful of the communities they're affecting. They also created a space to discuss products that improve accessibility for some users. This made me feel more connected to the experience because it showcased purpose in the work being done here. Another highlight was getting to see people in their element. The travel and tourism industry has so many wonderful facets and the people exude a passion for their positions I haven't seen in most places of work. This experience taught me you can work hard and enjoy life. Not a single person I encountered seemed unhappy to be there. This inspired me to take charge and work hard now so I can set myself up for my future. I plan to get more acquainted with networking (as was suggested by one of the amazing women I was shadowing) so I can pursue a career in cybersecurity. I also now have an interest in taking part in internships to improve my academic and experiential arsenal.” - Taleah Scott

A Promising Path Forward

The experiences of Malachi, Kaejah, and Taleah underscore a crucial truth: our industry shines when we invest in the next generation and pursue a sense of belonging. By engaging local students and providing them with hands-on industry exposure, we can inspire and cultivate future tourism professionals. In turn, we can make strides in overcoming talent attraction and retention obstacles.

The 2024 DI Annual Convention shadow experience is just the beginning for Visit Tampa Bay and the NAACP Hillsborough County Chapter. Together, these organizations will continue to collaborate and provide students with education and mentorship. Their partnership reinforces the importance of building strong relationships between destination organizations and their communities.  

This shadowing initiative sets a powerful example for other destination organizations to follow. We encourage all industry leaders to consider how they can implement similar programs in their own communities. Start by reaching out to local schools, organizations, or industry partners to explore collaborative opportunities. Share your successes and learn from others. Together, we can break down barriers, enhance educational opportunities, and mentor young talent. Together, we can build a resilient, innovative, and inclusive industry that thrives on the collective strength of its people.

As we reflect on the success of this first shadow program, let us be reminded of the words that echoed throughout the 2024 DI Annual Convention: “I love this industry.” It is through our passion and commitment to inclusion that we will shape a bright future for the tourism industry and the communities we serve.

The Shadow Team Gets Roasted For Being Shady During The Iowa Caucus

By cheezburger.com
Published On :: Thu, 06 Feb 2020 07:00:00 -0800

Meet the Shadow team in charge of developing an app meant to help tally the votes from the Iowa caucus on Monday night. The purpose of the app was to help the process run more smoothly, but in the end it proved to be a complete and utter disaster, as precinct chairs supposedly couldn't get the app to actually work, in turn causing a delay in reporting.

The delay was blamed on "inconsistencies" in reporting, but honestly, who really knows what the truth is.

The team is reportedly run by people who worked on Hilary Clinton's presidential campaign in 2016. Additionally, 2020 candidate Pete Buttigieg's campaign paid the tech firm over $40,000 in 2019 leading many to suspect foul play.

But this is America, and we can't possibly have problems with corruption, right?

As of right now, we still don't have all the results from the caucus, so while you continue to anxiously refresh the New York Times page, have some hot Twitter takes on the people (rats) behind Shadow, Inc.

Assassin's Creed Shadows will reboot Assassin's Creed's patchy modern-day story

By www.rockpapershotgun.com
Published On :: Mon, 04 Nov 2024 09:09:23 +0000

Put your hand up if you'd forgotten that every Assassin's Creed game is, strictly speaking, set in the present day. I know I had. That's not the actual distant past you're parkouring through. That isn't actual Renaissance architecture you're clambering on. It's a holographic Animus simulation, conjured from ancestral memories flash-frozen within your DNA - convenient, inasmuch as it means that any inconsistencies are your DNA's fault, not Ubisoft's.
