Spirent Communications plc (LSE: SPT) today announced the availability of a research report conducted by Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) that reveals a number of crucial shifts in cybersecurity priorities among enterprises. The increased complexity of the IT environment, combined with increasingly sophisticated attacks and a rapidly evolving threat landscape, is causing organizations to invest more money in cybersecurity and start to focus on the impact of cyber threats and cybersecurity from a business perspective.

One of the report's key findings is that in many organizations (96 percent), the traditional role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) has expanded. As security concerns are integrated into the planning for new digital initiatives, CISOs are more often included as active participants in enterprise business discussions. By including CISOs from the beginning, enterprises can proactively balance security and performance with operational functions such as ease of access, reliability, and a positive user experience.

The primary driver cited for the elevation of the CISO is the increasing difficulty of protecting enterprise data. Nearly 80 percent of the 413 enterprise security professionals surveyed cited the expanded volume and sophistication of malware as the main reason it is becoming is harder to protect vital information. According to the report, multiple security researchers indicate that 80-90 percent of malware attacks target a single device and 50-60 percent of malicious web domains are active for one hour or less. These trends speak to the rise of targeted attacks designed to penetrate the network of a single organization. Targeted attacks act as small needles in a large haystack, making cybersecurity practices increasingly difficult.

The second most frequently cited reason for the increase in cybersecurity difficulty is the increase in the number of company IT initiatives. Digital business projects, cloud and third-party infrastructure, and the Internet-of-Things (IoT) make security substantially more challenging. The report states, 'Security teams find it difficult to larn the nuances of these technology initiatives, understand the associated risks, and implement the right security safeguards to protect their organizations.' Inserting security executives directly into the business conversation enables them to promote advances in digital business while balancing associated risk.

CISOs who are given responsibility for both business and security can address security from the very beginning of a project. A total of 86 percent of respondents agreed that applying cybersecurity to initial project planning and development can help decrease the likelihood of a security breach. Testing for both security and performance should be ongoing, from the early stages of the project through live operation. According to the report, 'To ensure strong security, many InfoSec pros believe this testing should be done on a continuous rather than periodic basis.' In addition, 79 percent of those surveyed agreed that organizations should test the effectiveness of security controls more frequently.

'Security must be a proactive measure within the enterprise,' said John Weinschenk, general manager, Enterprise Network and Application security at Spirent Communications (News - Alert). 'To meet the demands of business and the realities of threats and risk, security professionals must be actively involved with the business and integrate security considerations from the very beginning of a project.'

'Moving security leadership into business planning is rapidly becoming both a necessity and a reality,' said Jon Oltsik, senior principal analyst, ESG Research. 'Enterprises must balance business considerations with security consciousness to be enablers of growth while keeping risk in check.'

Another encouraging fact from the research is that 92 percent of the organizations surveyed were planning to increase their cybersecurity budgets through 2018. The areas in which organizations were most likely to increase spending included network security, cloud security, and application security. Some of the planned increase stemmed from unifying business and security functions and the desire to treat security as an integral part of the development process, increasing the need for earlier and more frequent security testing.

In addition, the new data shows that too many organizations have an inadequate level of security staff and are particularly lacking staff with combined experience in networking and security. CISOs can help bridge these skill gaps.

The ESG Research Insights report, Cybersecurity Realities and Priorities for 2018 and Beyond, is based on a survey of 413 IT and cybersecurity professionals in the United States, the UK, and Australia who work at enterprises with more than 1,000 employees. The enterprises span a range of industries and governments, with a concentration in financial services, manufacturing, retail/wholesale, healthcare, and information technology (IT). The report is free and can be downloaded from Spirent's web site. An on-demand webinar on the study, featuring ESG's Jon Oltsik, is also available from Spirent.

Need some help…

I’m using a NI GPIB-USB-HS with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I’ve got it working but am experiencing slow reads when I compare it to running under Windows with the NI drivers. When running under Ubuntu each read takes 9 milliseconds but the same code under Windows with the same devices takes < 1 millisecond. Have I set the Linux-gpib (V3.2.17) up incorrectly?

Under Windows the settings are:

System controller

I/O Timeout 13 (10 sec)

Autopolling

Send EOI at End of Write

Don’t terminate read on EOS

EOS Byte 0

Don’t Set EOI with EOS on Write

Assert REN when SC

Bus Timing 2 (500 nsec)

Under Ubuntu the config file is:

interface {

minor = 0 /* board index, minor = 0 uses /dev/gpib0, minor = 1 uses /dev/gpib1, etc. */

board_type = 'ni_usb_b' /* type of interface board being used */

name = 'violet' /* optional name, allows you to get a board descriptor using ibfind() */

pad = 0 /* primary address of interface */

sad = 0 /* secondary address of interface */

timeout = T10s /* timeout for commands */

eos = 0x0 /* EOS Byte, 0xa is newline and 0xd is carriage return */

set-reos = no /* Terminate read if EOS */

set-bin = no /* Compare EOS 8-bit */

set-xeos = no /* Assert EOI whenever EOS byte is sent */

set-eot = yes /* Assert EOI with last byte on writes */

/* settings for boards that lack plug-n-play capability */

base = 0 /* Base io ADDRESS */

irq = 0 /* Interrupt request level */

dma = 0 /* DMA channel (zero disables) */

/* pci_bus and pci_slot can be used to distinguish two pci boards supported by the same driver */

/* pci_bus = 0 */

/* pci_slot = 7 */

master = yes /* interface board is system controller */

}

And in the code we set:

// Enable system control

ibconfig(IEEE_boardID, IbcSC, true );

if( (ThreadIbsta() & ERR))

{

report_message ( QString( 'ibconfig error' ));

}

// Enable REN line

ibconfig(IEEE_boardID, IbcSRE, true );

if( (ThreadIbsta() & ERR))

{

report_message ( QString( 'ibconfig error' ));

}

// Enable 500ns timing

ibconfig(IEEE_boardID, IbcTIMING, 2 );

if( (ThreadIbsta() & ERR))

{

report_message ( QString( 'ibconfig error' ));

}

device_ = ibdev(board_id_, // Board

addr_, // address end device

NO_SAD, // secondary address

T10s, // timeout

1, // EOI enabled

0 // No end character

);

So it looks like we’ve set everything as Windows? Am I expecting too much of the Linux gpib driver?

Thanks you in advance.

Col.
