Security Preparedness for Work From Home
DynamicCISO
March 23, 2020
The spread of coronavirus (aka COVID-19) has compelled many businesses to shift their office-based workforces to remote ones. This has quickly changed the game from a security perspective: an evolving attack surface, proliferating endpoints, new network behaviors, and more.

Due to the pandemic, CISOs are facing an increase in work-pressure and dwindling resources, which can rapidly lead to unmanageable pressure and stress, severely affecting health, happiness and productivity. In turn, this can lead to major security and regulatory compliance issues.

Dr Aditya Mukherjee, Vice President at Synchrony was happy to offer his perspective intended to benefit security teams adapting to the changing landscape.

The World of State Surveillance
PenTest Magazine
March 01, 2017
I still remember the day when one of my close friends watched Mr. Robot for the first time and went into a paranoid frenzy to set up security measures in her mobile, laptop and hard disk. To be honest, I was always aware of these techniques in the back of my mind but somehow watching it on the show made me reconsider my lax, too.

Countering Malware Evasion
Digital 4n6 Journal
November 01, 2016
Malware are becoming more sophisticated (especially the ones associated with APT’s) with the implementation of advance evasive behavior. Gone are the days when ollyDbg use to be a comprehensive utility alone. Today using sandboxes and various automation techniques, the game has changed. But that’s not good enough, automaton is great as it eliminates the need for the analyst to go through each line of the code manually, provide for greater scalability and handle unexplored variants that are not tied to a single signature for detection. But even they have their own shortcomings like the supported structure, efficiency in classification of malicious behaviors, and how evasions are identified and mitigated.

Are you Mr. Robot - The State Surveillance
Indian Cyber Security E-Magazine by National Cyber Defense Research Centre (NCDRC)
October 01, 2016
Today, No digital communication is secure by the virtue that any communication is susceptible to government interception as it happens but far beyond that: all digital communications - meaning telephone calls, emails, online chats and the like - are automatically recorded and stored and accessible to the government after the fact. To describe that is to define what a ubiquitous, limitless Surveillance State is.

Ethical buddies vs Online baddies - Hacking shop in capital to beat virtual villains, e-policing MIA in East Singhbhum for months
Telegraph India
August 05, 2013
Ranchi now has an ethical hacking company, Gray Hat Private Limited, with corporate offices around 500m from Argora police station on Birsa Munda Rajpath.

In its first event on August 20, a three-hour meet on ethical hacking at the Federation of Jharkhand Chambers of Commerce and Industries (FJCCI) conference hall, Gray Hat will make people aware of what it stands for.

An ethical hacker is a computer expert, who attacks a security system using the methods of a malicious one, but with two major differences.

One, he does so on behalf of an owner to test the security system. Two, he finds out threats that a malicious hacker can exploit and reports the problems instead of taking advantage of them.

Public relations officer of the company Rituraj Pandit said they had taken the services of two ethical hackers, Atul Tiwari of Ranchi and Aditya Mukherjee of Mumbai.
