KyberrosvotKyberrosvot Jakso 16 - Telenor – Ovela hyökkäys teleoperaattorilleTässä jaksossa kerromme tositarinan Norjan suurimmasta teleoperaattorista Telenorista, joka joutui taannoin röyhkeän huijausyrityksen kohteeksi.
Kun yhtiöön, jonka oman liiketoiminnan ydintä on tietoturva, hyökätään ja melkein onnistutaan, herättää se monenlaisia kysymyksiä. Jaksossa selviää, mitä oikein tapahtui – ja miksi hyökkäys jäi lopulta yritykseksi. Missä vaiheessa hälytyskellojen tulisi viimeistään soida?
Peter Nymanin vieraana ovat tietoturvavaikuttaja Sami Laiho ja DNA:n tietoturvapäällikkö Mikko Kulmala.

Is it better to be down for an hour due to a lousy patch versus down for months due to...

Richard chats with Sami Laiho about the latest thinking around application whitelisting. For years we've worked from the blacklist model of allowing anything onto PCs and running anti-malware software to remove the bad stuff. But there's so much bad stuff today, it's impossible to keep up. Whitelisting has gotten simpler with better versions of AppLocker and approaches that allow you to more easily control what applications live on PCs. And it defeats the vast majority of malware right out of the gate!
