Safeguarding Your Digital Kingdom: A C-Suite Guide to Preventing Malvertising

by

Malvertising, short for malicious advertising, is a cybercrime technique that leverages the reach and trust associated with online advertising to deliver harmful content. Malicious actors infiltrate legitimate ad networks and insert malicious code into advertisements, which are then displayed on unsuspecting websites. When a user clicks on or simply view these malicious ads, their devices can become infected with malware, leading to a range of detrimental consequences.

Biometric Spoofing: A Growing Threat to Cyber Security

by

In today’s cyber age, biometric authentication has emerged as an easy way to verify ID. By leveraging unique human characteristics such as Iris, palm prints, and facial patterns, it can provide a more authentic alternative to traditional passphrase-based authentication. However, as biometric technology advances, so do its associated threats. One of the biometric systems’ most significant challenges is the risk of spoofing or presentation attacks.

Biometric or presentation spoofing involves using fake biometric details to double-cross the authentication systems. By presenting a counterfeit biometric sample, an attacker can evade security measures and gain unauthorised access to sensitive information or resources. The prevalence of biometric spoofing has increased in recent years, making it a critical concern for organisations of all sizes, particularly those that rely heavily on biometric technology for security.
