Data breaches are always a challenge for organizations and negatively impact their reputation and stakeholder relationships. Depending on the situation, crisis communication strategies can mitigate these negative effects. Ubiquiti showed us how not to do it (a short thread).

Opinion | It’s time for Switzerland to ditch neutrality

Opinion | It’s time for Switzerland to ditch neutrality

The world has changed, and as a tool of foreign and security policy, neutrality is obsolete.

Ein Thema, welches ich an der ISSS präsentieren durfte, sehr gut zusammengefasst auf dnip.ch und mit anschaulichen Beispielen erklärt. Die Krisenkommunikation nach Cyberangriffen muss geübt und vorbereitet werden.

I think this video definitely deserves more attention than it received (at least in Europe…)

I disagree with John Mearsheimer on the causes of the Ukraine-Russian War. Instead, I think...and stay with me on this one... Offensive Realism offers a better explanation. [THREAD]

Zur allgemeinen Klärung: Die FDP fordert keine neue KKWs, sondern hält in einem umfassenden Papier zur Sicherstellung der Energie- und Stromversorgung bis 2050 fest, dass es kein Technologieverbot geben darf. Kurzfristig ist klar, dass ein neues KKW nicht realisierbar ist.

Wow, that could be a landmark decision for cyber-insurance cases…interesting to see how this will play out and how insurers will specifically include cyber-attacks as acts of war. And how they will do and define that…as Lloyd‘s did recently. therecord.media/merck-wins-c…
Wir haben es geschafft! Mit der JSVP und der JGLP sowie weiteren Organisationen haben wir heute 70'000 Unterschriften gegen das konsumentenfeindliche #Filmgesetz bei der Bundeskanzlei eingereicht. Wir freuen uns auf den Abstimmungskampf! Merci für euer Engagement. #LexNetflix

Way more. We’re seeing >1,000 attempted exploits per second. And payloads getting scarier. Ransomware payloads started in force in last 24 hours.

Heads up: We see a lot of scanning against the #log4j vulnerability and decided to publish a blog post with some guidance: govcert.ch/blog/zero-day-exp… Please patch now!

Just got off phone with a client. Log4j is in their network. Vendor claims patch will be available next release... which is multiple months from now. Here's what you do if you're in this situation. 1. Keep calm. There's no need to panic. 2. Carefully read this thread. 1/?

Der BR lehnt die #Renteninitiative ab, ohne dem Anliegen der kommenden Generationen einen Gegenvorschlag entgegenzustellen. Dies ist eine Bankrotterklärung gegenüber der #AHV, denn nur die Renteninitiative bietet eine nachhaltige Sicherung unserer Renten: renten-sichern.ch/article/51…

Bundesrat sagt Nein zur #Renteninitiative der @Jungfreisinnige – ein Skandalentscheid! Mit seinem Nein zur Initiative setzt der Bundesrat wissentlich die Zukunft der Renten der jüngeren Generation aufs Spiel. Es ist ein heftiger Angriff auf die Generationengerechtigkeit @RentenVI

If we're going to blame hospitals for ransomware-related fatalities we need to be very careful about what exactly we fault them for—those liability decisions will have long-term cybersecurity consequences slate.com/technology/2021/10…
Is a Hospital to Blame if a Patient Dies During a Ransomware Attack?

Is a Hospital to Blame if a Patient Dies During a Ransomware Attack?

This is such an interesting segment— John Oliver gets the causes of ransomware right (ransomware as a service, cryptocurrencies, and haven states) but then suggests solutions that in no way address those problems (MFA, computer updates, email hygiene): youtube.com/watch?v=WqD-ATqw…
