Decoding Security 118: No Small Thing

Decoding Security is celebrating National Small Business week by sharing simple recommendations that small businesses can use to protect themselves from today’s ever evolving cyberthreats. But first, we take a look at what’s trending in the news. Two additional security updates were released by the Drupal security team last month as part of continuing maintenance efforts after the discovery of the initial Drupalgeddon2 vulnerability in March. Drupal is urging its users to implement these updates immediately to avoid possible compromise. Meanwhile, the RSA Security Conference took place in San Francisco last month, drawing thousands of attendees from across the globe. However, the third-party mobile app built for the mega IT security conference was found to have a vulnerability, which could have potentially leaked the first and last names of attendees.

In honor of National Small Business week, we’re talking about the big challenges most modern small businesses face when it comes to protecting against vulnerabilities and cyberattacks. In this episode, Security Analysts Jessica Ortega and Ramuel Gall outline the top cybersecurity challenges small businesses face, and provide tips on how to overcome them.
