Dear Friends,
In the September issue of Cyber Defense Magazine, we bring our readers a varied and
diverse group of articles concentrating on the continued and pervasive cyber security
challenges we face together. There is no time in recent, or at least digital, history when
such a state of flux has existed, both among the “home team” defenders and among
the threat actors.
The cyber practices of social distancing have become more and more widespread, and appear to be entering a
transitional phase from temporary stopgap “work from home” remedies to a more permanent structural change
in how work gets done outside the HQ environment. Many workers will never return to the traditional office, and
may even be deemed surplus to requirements by their employers.
The exploitation of vulnerabilities grows apace, with a potential broadening of the realms of financial criminal
activity, state-sponsored interference, and the ever-present thrill-seekers whose payoff is seeing the disruption
they can cause. We are also in the critical campaign period leading up to the presidential election in the U.S.,
which is by any measure fraught with vulnerabilities and threats from within and without. The effects of COVID-
19 on nearly all enterprises which depend on cyberspace for their operations are growing. The actionable
intelligence Cyber Defense Magazine provides is the first and best means of meeting these challenges.
Starting with the cogent articles in this new issue, we are pleased to continue providing the powerful combination
of monthly eMagazines, daily updates, and features on the Cyber Defense Magazine home page, and webinars
featuring national and international experts on topics of compelling interest.
Please take time to visit and signup for a webinar at https://www.cyberdefensewebinars.com – free, highly
educational, fun, memorable, interactive and you’ll get a certificate emailed to you after each webinar.
Warmest regards,
Gary S. Miliefsky
