Collaborate Disseminate
Last year I wrote about the Digital Security Exchange. The project is live: The DSX works to strengthen the digital resilience of U.S. civil society groups by improving their understanding and mitigation of online threats. We do this by pairing civil society and social sector organizations with credible and trustworthy digital security experts and trainers who can help them keep… Continue reading The Digital Security Exchange Is Live
Most organizations around the world lack a consistent incident response plan and thus are unprepared to manage the repercussions of a cyberattack, according to a recent Ponemon report.

About half of U.S. businesses say they don’t have cyber risk insurance, compared to fewer than a third in the U.K. and Canada, and the health care sector is lagging the worst, according to a recent survey. The data, released by credit-scoring and data analytics giant FICO and market researchers Ovum, comes from a telephone survey of IT and security executives from a broad range of companies in the financial services, media, e-commerce and retail, telecommunications and health care sectors in North America and northwestern Europe. The 350 companies ranged in size from fewer than 1,000 employees (30 percent) to over 10,000 (25 percent) with nearly half of them (45 percent) somewhere in between. Half of U.S. businesses report having cyber insurance, although only about a third of those (16 percent of the whole sample) are confident that it covers all their risks. Just under a quarter more (23 percent) reported plans to buy insurance […]

You’ve got to walk before you can run, right? Perhaps not, if this bipedal dino-like running robot is any indication.
Officially dubbed a “Planar Elliptical Runner,” the bot is a test platform for bipedal locomotion from the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition. Taking inspiration from the gait of an ostrich — we think it looks more like a T. rex or velociraptor, but same difference — [Jerry Pratt]’s team at IHMC have built something pretty remarkable. Contrary to all the bipedal and quadrupedal robots we’ve seen, like Boston Dynamics’ Big Dog and PETMAN, which all fairly bristle with sensors …read more

Summer Fowler at CMU has invented a new word: prosilience: I propose that we build operationally PROSILIENT organizations. If operational resilience, as we like to say, is risk management "all grown up," then prosilience is resilience with consciousness of environment, self-awareness, and the capacity to evolve. It is not about being able to operate through disruption, it is about anticipating… Continue reading Buzzword Watch: Prosilience
