Over recent years, several organizations have suffered damaging data breaches where sensitive data was stolen. Alarmingly, things seem to be getting worse, and the results can be devastating. With the expanding threat landscape and the rise of the data-centric enterprise, companies must have parallel development of their security architecture to protect their sensitive data. But in the time it's taken for data security to catch up with the changing environment, organizations have found their compliance and data protection programs vulnerable.

Cybersecurity has jumped to the top of companies’ risk agenda after a number of high profile data breaches, and other hacks. In an increasingly digitized world, where data resides in the cloud, on mobiles and Internet of Things enabling multitude of connected devices, the threat vectors are multiplying, threatening the firms’ operations and future financial stability.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is here to stay, and Gartner predicts there will be over 26 billion connected devices by 2020. This is driving an explosion of data which offers tremendous opportunity for organizations to gain business value, and Hadoop has emerged as the key component to make sense of the data and realize the maximum value. On the flip side, the surge of new devices has increased the potential for hackers to wreak havoc, and Hadoop has been described as the biggest cybercrime bait ever created.

The face of the threat landscape is becoming increasingly sophisticated and highly targeted. Advanced threats are succeeding in their effort to gain access to payment data of target organizations. CISOs, CXOs, and other executives need to become knowledgeable about the potential impacts of targeted attacks and advanced persistent threats. They need to become actively engaged in developing and implementing effective protective strategies.

There is a substantial cost associated with reaching and maintaining PCI DSS compliance requirements, but the cost of non-compliance is often much greater. While the initial cost of the technology, staff and other resources necessary to implement satisfactory controls has its price tag, it is vital that all organizations affected by the PCI standard consider both the short and long-term costs of non-compliance as well as the benefits to meeting the requirements.
In a landscape filled with new threats and regulations managing the risks of 3rd party vendors is vitally important. Most financial institutions have tens of thousands of supplier relationships, and many data breaches originate through IT Vendors within the supply chain. Compounding this dilemma, regulators including OIG, OCC, FFIEC and others are increasing their focus on potential 3rd party risks. They want to see organizations proactively identifying potential risks, verifying that business partners providers and their employees are compliant, monitoring for changes that might create new risks or compliance gaps, and managing the investigation and remediation of incidents.
Under the rules of PCI DSS v3.1, SSL and early versions of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol are no longer considered acceptable for payment data protection due to "inherent weaknesses" within the protocol. Organizations who process payments must migrate to TLS 1.1 encryption or higher by June 2018. Prior to this date, existing implementations using SSL and/or early TLS must have a formal risk mitigation and migration plan in place. Moreover, details have just been released on the upcoming PCI DSS 3.2.
In every organization, there are a multitude of applications and devices and a universe of threats and vulnerabilities. Every process, function and system has certain risks and compliance requirements. It is no longer enough to have a handful of diligent security and compliance professionals managing the organization's risk strategies and controls. Their processes must embrace business and mission professionals' knowledge of risk, who evaluate the causal impact of threats to their operational performance, and participate in decision-making to meet their risk posture goals.
In 2014 around 40 percent of data breaches were the result of external intrusions, while the remainder were caused by a lack of internal controls/employee actions, lost or stolen devices/documents, and social engineering/fraud. The good news is that the vast majority of security breaches can be prevented by implementing and enforcing basic security best practices with proven technologies.
In a landscape filled with new threats and new regulations, risk management has never been more critical to senior leaders across all sectors. The growth of data is increasing exponentially, organizations are suffering from volatility across all risk types, and need to re-think their enterprise risk strategy. At the heart of this strategy is the need for a single consistent view of the data, and a data-centric, multi-platform approach to secure valuable customer and corporate data assets, end-to-end.

Managing third-party risk is a big undertaking. Most financial institutions have tens of thousands of supplier relationships, and many data breaches originate through IT Vendors within the supply chain. Not only are the risks associated with third-party vendors increasing, but regulators are turning their attention to the need for organizations to manage IT vendor risk more effectively.

The total number of fraudulent payment card transactions has grown every year since 2006, and experts are calling 2014 "the year of the breach." The Ponemon Institute found that each breach cost the average retailer $8.6 million in related expenses, and the price tag connected with a data breach increased across the board, reaching $20.8 million for financial service firms, $14.5 million for technology companies and $12.7 for communications providers.
With the increased regulation and scrutiny of the past decade, it is important for organizations to maintain best practices in order to control and achieve compliance with evolving regulatory requirements.

The clock is ticking for enterprises that have not yet upgraded their payment card processing systems to be compliant with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) 3.0. As the Jan. 1, 2015 mandatory deadline approaches, there is increasing urgency to not only understand the most important changes in PCI DSS 3.0, but also to be ready for a rigorous QSA assessment against those changes. Since PCI 3.0 is bigger, harder and more expensive than the previous iteration, merchants have their work cut out for them.

In 2015 the size of the digital universe will be tenfold what it was in 2010. Large-scale data breaches are on the rise across all sectors, and enterprise data security initiatives must evolve to address new and growing threats. Consumer transactions, personally identifiable information, customer records, and the like, all flowing together into the Hadoop 'data lake', will enable critical business insights but also means Hadoop installations will be a rich target for cyber-crime.

If you're embarking on Hadoop adoption you know that sensitive customer and corporate data will be in the ecosystem – transactional data, intellectual property, customer files, and more. As Adrian Lane of Securosis has noted, "High quality data produces better analysis results—which is why a key ingredient is sensitive data." Now the question becomes how to keep sensitive data secure as it moves into and beyond Hadoop, and—most importantly—how to protect the data but still make it accessible by many different users with varying analytic needs and ad-hoc processes.
