Fortune 500 Security Shows Progress and Pitfalls
Fortune 500 companies have improved on email security and vulnerability disclosure programs but struggle in asset management and high-risk services.
A deep dive into the security of Fortune 500 organizations reveals they have improved, albeit slowly and unevenly, with gains made in email security and vulnerability disclosure programs (VDPs) and progress lagging in asset management and high-risk services, researchers report.
Rapid7 s Internet Cyber-Exposure Report aims to highlight critical security issues for the CISO, IT security staff, and internal business partners in an enterprise. Its analysis is broken down into five areas of risk: email security, encryption for public Web applications, version management for Web and email servers, risky protocols unsuitable for the Internet, and the increase in VDPs.

Top ME firms ‘leaving customers at risk of email fraud’

Sixty-nine percent of the Forbes Top 100 Middle East Companies have a Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance (DMARC) record in place, meaning that almost a third (31%) of them are leaving customers at risk of email fraud, a report said. The lack of a DMARC record makes companies potentially more susceptible to cybercriminals spoofing their identity and increasing the risk of email fraud targeting their customers, added the report by Proofpoint, a leading next-generation cybersecurity and compliance company and Help AG, the cybersecurity arm of Etisalat Digital.
