| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: The Zero Trust Framework and Privileged Access Management (PAM) Ravindra Das, 2024-05-02 This book is about the Zero Trust Framework. Essentially, this is a methodology where the IT/Network Infrastructure of a business is segmented into smaller islands, each having its own lines of defense. This is primarily achieved through the use of Multifactor Authentication (MFA), where at least three more authentication layers are used, preferably being different from one another. Another key aspect of the Zero Trust Framework is known as Privileged Access Management (PAM). This is an area of Cybersecurity where the protection of superuser accounts, rights, and privileges must be protected at all costs from Cyberattackers. In this regard, this is where the Zero Trust Framework and PAM intertwine, especially in a Cloud-based platform, such as Microsoft Azure. However, as it has been reviewed in one of our previous books, the use of passwords is now becoming a nemesis, not only for individuals but for businesses as well. It is hoped that by combining the Zero Trust Framework with PAM, password use can be eradicated altogether, thus giving rise to a passwordless society. |

| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: Information Security Carsten Fabig, Alexander Haasper, Vineyard Management Consulting GmbH, 2023-12-28 Die Cyber-Welt scheint bedrohlicher, Regulatorik immer komplexer. Beides steht im engen Zusammenhang und fordert smarte Lösungen. In diesem Buch startet der erste Beitrag direkt mit dem Thema NIS2. Im Fokus steht eine zielgerichtete Einführung der Anforderungen für kritische Infrastrukturen, insbesondere auch für die Zielgruppe der mittelständischen Unternehmen. Der US-Amerikanischen Gesetzgebung folgend wird die neue Gesetzgebung zu Whistleblowing mit etwas Verspätung nun auch innerhalb der EU durch entsprechende Gesetzgebung in Deutschland zur Pflicht. Dazu werden die wesentlichen Herausforderungen und passende Ansätze skizziert, wie Unternehmen sich diesbezüglich aufstellen sollten. Über die Nutzung von Cyber Frameworks zur Strategie-Implementierung und Risikosteuerung geht es im nächsten Beitrag. Einige der wesentlichen Frameworks (NIST und SANS20/CIS) werden dazu im Rahmen von Praxisbeispielen analysiert. Der Beitrag versucht Wege aufzuzeigen, wie gerade das Thema Risiko-Management auf der Basis von NIST konsistent auch für unstrukturierte Daten umgesetzt werden kann, um bestmöglichen Schutz auf Basis von risikobasierten Ansätzen zu erzielen. Ein Artikel zur Security in der Cloud schließt sich an. Nach einer allgemeinen Betrachtung der Anforderungen geht der Beitrag auf konkrete Best Practices und Tools für die Microsoft Azure Cloud ein, um am Ende die Frage zu erörtern: Wie sicher ist die Cloud-Security? Relativ hohe Aufwände in den Cyber-Security-Programmen der letzten Jahre sind zurecht in Identity und Access Management geflossen. Dieses Thema wird wegen der weiteren steigenden Verwendung von unstrukturierten Daten mit Partnern, Kunden und innerhalb von 3rd Party Services weiter an Bedeutung gewinnen, da auch diese Informationen unter Kontrolle gehalten werden müssen und entsprechend risikobezogen zu managen sind. Der Beitrag zu IAM geht auf die unterschiedlichen Disziplinen ein, die für ganzheitliches IAM relevant sind und stellt einige der wichtigsten Ansätze und Tools dazu vor. Mit der Veröffentlichung von ersten Detailanforderungen in diesem Jahr hat das Thema DORA nochmals höhere Priorität als im Jahr zuvor bekommen, zumal die Implementierung Ende 2024 abgeschlossen sein muss. Zur Sicherstellung der Widerstandsfähigkeit von Finanzinstituten und IKT-Drittdienstleistern wird dazu eine Betrachtung der wesentlichen Anforderungen und Herausforderungen diskutiert sowie entsprechende Ansätze und Vorgehensweisen zur Implementierung gegeben. |

| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: The Role of Blockchain in Disaster Management Ayan Kumar Das, Ditipriya Sinha, Siddhartha Bhattacharyya, Debashis De, 2024-10-23 Humans and other living organisms are affected by natural as well as man-made disasters. Most recently, the Covid19 pandemic caused a worldwide healthcare disaster resulting in unprecedented changes in the global economy, the global healthcare system, as well as professional and personal life. The process of recovering from such disasters incurs high costs and time due to the lack of coordination between various relief teams and the inefficient distribution of relief materials such as food, water, and medicine. The prediction or early detection of disasters as well as the prevention of relief fund mismanagement are major concerns for researchers. The Role of Blockchain in Disaster Management explores the latest research in the architecture and implementation of existing blockchain-based IoT frameworks for the detection and prevention of disasters as well as the management of relative supply chains, to protect against mismanagement of essential materials. The distributed nature of Blockchain helps to protect data from internal or external attacks, especially in disaster areas or times of crisis when database systems become overloaded and vulnerable to unauthorized access, manipulation, and disruption of critical services. This book can be used as a reference by graduate students, researchers, professors, and professionals in the fields of computer science, software design, and disaster management. - Presents the design of blockchain-based frameworks for disaster management and their performance evaluation to help compare proposed frameworks - Introduces applications of machine learning techniques to make disaster management systems more intelligent and enable more accurate data analysis/prediction - Addresses data security issues as key examples that can be prevented through the application of blockchain technology |
| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: NetAdmin 網管人 01月號/2024 第216期 網管人編輯部, 2024-01-03 封面故事 企業級熱兵器 GenAI落地 數位化賽局進入火藥時代 生成式AI顛覆產業競爭力 文◎余采霏 「在IT技術發展趨勢中，過去20年大概沒有人一項技術可以讓各大科技巨頭、雲端服務供應商、軟硬體業者，甚至是新創大舉投入並且在短短不到半年的時間就推出新產品，這可謂是生成式AI（Generative AI或簡稱GenAI）帶來的奇蹟。」這是IDC企業應用資深研究經理蔡宜秀日前在2024年台灣資通訊（ICT）市場趨勢預測中對生成式AI所下的註解。 毫無疑問，生成式AI正在影響著日常的工作與生活，未來生成式AI也可望被大幅度地引進到企業環境中。但事實上，在這股浪潮下，企業普遍存在著一股嚴重的焦慮感，擔心若是沒有辦法跟上，將失去企業的競爭力。資策會軟體院資深技術總監何文楨認為，現在就像處於冷兵器與熱兵器過渡時代，若是無法跟上，等於拿著刀劍去對抗洋槍大炮，喪失競爭力。而這也將驅動企業加速相關的投資，根據麥肯錫最新的調查指出，有三分之一的企業經常在至少一項業務職能中使用生成式AI；另外，也有四成企業表示，隨著技術的進步，預估將增加人工智慧投資。 不過，對企業而言，將成生式AI引入到企業環境中可能是一項複雜且具挑戰的工作，不光是在模型運用，也涉及場景的尋找、資料治理以及基礎架構的資源建構，當然人才也不可或缺。本期將邀請多位業界專家分享企業可能面臨的挑戰，以及如何協助企業透過工作坊（Workshop）或顧問服務，找尋合適的商業運用場景，並運用現有的生成式AI技術或解決方案，來加速擁抱GenAI，藉以創新商業模式、提高生產力。 專題報導 規範標準全面風起 智慧IoT資安領頭飛 第六屆物聯網安全高峰論壇特別報導 在人工智慧與生成式AI掀起一波新浪潮的同時，物聯網(IoT)正加速在各個產業擴展普及，衍生 出更多垂直應用與智慧化功能，但也帶來更大的資訊安全風險。所幸在各國政府、研究機構、 行業組織的協同努力下，多個安全性標準或資安要求陸續成為領域規範，無論攸關產線穩定效 率的工業物聯網、牽動人命安危的聯網汽車，或者引領5G AIoT創新的物聯網設備製造商，在資 安方面都有了更明確完善的實務作法可依循。本屆的「物聯網安全高峰論壇」，匯聚了產官學 界跨領域專家，深度解析AI對物聯網(IoT)安全帶來的新挑戰，以及因應之道，共同為增強數位 化應用場景資安韌性獻策。 產業趨勢 當AI遇見資安 重新定義產業攻防賽局 生成式AI衍生資安疑慮 企業以CPR安全模型因應 文◎童啟晟（資策會MIC資深產業分析師） 在AI賦能科技的新浪潮中，企業的資安思維必須跟上新時代的腳步，當前諸多產業已經針對AI資安化、資安AI化，規劃出一套具備保密性、隱私性、穩健性的安全模型，訴求企業能從資安事件中安全地存活下來並永續經營與發展。在產業資安領域中的攻防賽局內，AI已是不可或缺的一部分，甚或全面影響並改變資安環境樣貌，驅使產業生態版圖產生位移。 深度觀點 「保護＋防禦」雙管齊下 資安左移力抗網路勒索 了解網路勒索行動生命週期 更早期階段採取行動防範攻擊 文◎Trend Micro Research 趨勢科技威脅研究中心 勒索病毒是一種「高調」的威脅，當它發作時完全毫不遮掩：駭客會將系統鎖住，並且發出明確的指示要求企業該做些什麼（以及該付多少贖金）來救回他們的資料和裝置。這正是為何大多數駭客都只會在他們準備曝光時才發動網路勒索，也就是在所有其他目標都已經達成之後，例如將企業資料外傳、建立祕密幕後操縱架構，或是將企業存取權限賣給其他集團。 有鑑於此，許多企業都正在將資安「左移」，也就是在威脅生命週期的更早期階段就採取行動來防範攻擊，透過一些措施在攻擊演變成資安事件並造成大規模傷害之前預先加以偵測。這種「保護＋防禦」雙管齊下的作法，對於資安循環（偵測、評估、防範）當中的防範階段非常重要。 技術論壇 活用PowerCLI命令工具 強悍高效管理vSphere 批次快速搞定虛擬機器操作 涵蓋所有圖形介面功能 文◎顧武雄 在vSphere的架構中，想要集中控管資源的分配相當容易，只要因應不同應用系統的運行需求，就可以選擇性地將這一些相關的虛擬機器，部署在獨立主機、叢集、資源集區或是vSAN中，並且還能夠在結合DRS的功能下，讓系統自動根據資源的利用狀況，動態調配虛擬機器所在的運行主機。 面對大量虛擬機器的建置與管理，如果只有圖形管理介面肯定是不夠的，因此必須搭配使用命令管理工具來協助執行各種的批次任務，甚至建立自訂義的Script來執行各種自動化的任務。目前vSphere主要提供以下三種命令工具，其中最常使用的就是PowerCLI。 技術論壇 vCLS叢集服務卡住免驚 手動撤退模式重新部署 新增功能vSphere 8 U2吸睛 增進穩定可靠及自動化運行 文◎王偉任 最初的vSphere 8版本在2022年10月發布，經過六個月後發布vSphere 8 Update 1版本，最新的vSphere 8 Update 2版本，則是在2023年VMware Explore大會中正式發布，如圖1所示。事實上，管理人員可以察覺，即便VMware每六個月便發布新版本，然而每一版更新並非僅是功能增強或臭蟲更新，反而包含許多新增特色功能。在本文中，將逐一剖析各項亮眼特色功能，並且實戰演練最新發布的vCLS撤退機制，讓企業和組織的管理人員能夠更輕鬆管理vCLS叢集服務。 |
| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: Privileged Attack Vectors Morey J. Haber, 2020-06-13 See how privileges, insecure passwords, administrative rights, and remote access can be combined as an attack vector to breach any organization. Cyber attacks continue to increase in volume and sophistication. It is not a matter of if, but when, your organization will be breached. Threat actors target the path of least resistance: users and their privileges. In decades past, an entire enterprise might be sufficiently managed through just a handful of credentials. Today’s environmental complexity has seen an explosion of privileged credentials for many different account types such as domain and local administrators, operating systems (Windows, Unix, Linux, macOS, etc.), directory services, databases, applications, cloud instances, networking hardware, Internet of Things (IoT), social media, and so many more. When unmanaged, these privileged credentials pose a significant threat from external hackers and insider threats. We are experiencing an expanding universe of privileged accounts almost everywhere. There is no one solution or strategy to provide the protection you need against all vectors and stages of an attack. And while some new and innovative products will help protect against or detect against a privilege attack, they are not guaranteed to stop 100% of malicious activity. The volume and frequency of privilege-based attacks continues to increase and test the limits of existing security controls and solution implementations. Privileged Attack Vectors details the risks associated with poor privilege management, the techniques that threat actors leverage, and the defensive measures that organizations should adopt to protect against an incident, protect against lateral movement, and improve the ability to detect malicious activity due to the inappropriate usage of privileged credentials. This revised and expanded second edition covers new attack vectors, has updated definitions for privileged access management (PAM), new strategies for defense, tested empirical steps for a successful implementation, and includes new disciplines for least privilege endpoint management and privileged remote access. What You Will Learn Know how identities, accounts, credentials, passwords, and exploits can be leveraged to escalate privileges during an attack Implement defensive and monitoring strategies to mitigate privilege threats and risk Understand a 10-step universal privilege management implementation plan to guide you through a successful privilege access management journeyDevelop a comprehensive model for documenting risk, compliance, and reporting based on privilege session activity Who This Book Is For Security management professionals, new security professionals, and auditors looking to understand and solve privilege access management problems |

| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: Identity Attack Vectors Morey J. Haber, Darran Rolls, 2019-12-17 Discover how poor identity and privilege management can be leveraged to compromise accounts and credentials within an organization. Learn how role-based identity assignments, entitlements, and auditing strategies can be implemented to mitigate the threats leveraging accounts and identities and how to manage compliance for regulatory initiatives. As a solution, Identity Access Management (IAM) has emerged as the cornerstone of enterprise security. Managing accounts, credentials, roles, certification, and attestation reporting for all resources is now a security and compliance mandate. When identity theft and poor identity management is leveraged as an attack vector, risk and vulnerabilities increase exponentially. As cyber attacks continue to increase in volume and sophistication, it is not a matter of if, but when, your organization will have an incident. Threat actors target accounts, users, and their associated identities, to conduct their malicious activities through privileged attacks and asset vulnerabilities. Identity Attack Vectors details the risks associated with poor identity management practices, the techniques that threat actors and insiders leverage, and the operational best practices that organizations should adopt to protect against identity theft and account compromises, and to develop an effective identity governance program. What You Will Learn Understand the concepts behind an identity and how their associated credentials and accounts can be leveraged as an attack vector Implement an effective Identity Access Management (IAM) program to manage identities and roles, and provide certification for regulatory compliance See where identity management controls play a part of the cyber kill chain and how privileges should be managed as a potential weak link Build upon industry standards to integrate key identity management technologies into a corporate ecosystem Plan for a successful deployment, implementation scope, measurable risk reduction, auditing and discovery, regulatory reporting, and oversight based on real-world strategies to prevent identity attack vectors Who This Book Is For Management and implementers in IT operations, security, and auditing looking to understand and implement an identity access management program and manage privileges in these environments |

| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: Vietnam 2035 World Bank Group;Ministry of Planning and Investment of Vietnam, 2016-11-07 Thirty years of Ä?ổi Má»›i (economic renovation) reforms have catapulted Vietnam from the ranks of the world’s poorest countries to one of its great development success stories. Critical ingredients have been visionary leaders, a sense of shared societal purpose, and a focus on the future. Starting in the late 1980s, these elements were successfully fused with the embrace of markets and the global economy. Economic growth since then has been rapid, stable, and inclusive, translating into strong welfare gains for the vast majority of the population. But three decades of success from reforms raises expectations for the future, as aptly captured in the Vietnamese constitution, which sets the goal of “a prosperous people and a strong, democratic, equitable, and civilized country.†? There is a firm aspiration that by 2035, Vietnam will be a modern and industrialized nation moving toward becoming a prosperous, creative, equitable, and democratic society. The Vietnam 2035 report, a joint undertaking of the Government of Vietnam and the World Bank Group, seeks to better comprehend the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. It shows that the country’s aspirations and the supporting policy and institutional agenda stand on three pillars: balancing economic prosperity with environmental sustainability; promoting equity and social inclusion to develop a harmonious middle- class society; and enhancing the capacity and accountability of the state to establish a rule of law state and a democratic society. Vietnam 2035 further argues that the rapid growth needed to achieve the bold aspirations will be sustained only if it stands on faster productivity growth and reflects the costs of environmental degradation. Productivity growth, in turn, will benefit from measures to enhance the competitiveness of domestic enterprises, scale up the benefits of urban agglomeration, and build national technological and innovative capacity. Maintaining the record on equity and social inclusion will require lifting marginalized groups and delivering services to an aging and urbanizing middle-class society. And to fulfill the country’s aspirations, the institutions of governance will need to become modern, transparent, and fully rooted in the rule of law. |
| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: Green Energy and Environment Eng Hwa Yap, Andrew Huey Ping Tan, 2020 Energy is a vital element in sustaining our modern society but the future of energy is volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous; especially when facing a continuous drive to ensure a sustained and equitable access as well as mounting pressures to reduce its emissions. Traditional approaches in developing energy technologies have always been in isolation with distinct and unique contexts. However, we cannot afford to work in silos any longer. Future energy systems and their relationship with the society and the environment will have to be conceived, designed, developed, commissioned, and operated alongside and within contemporary geo-political, ethical, and socio-economic contexts. This has posed an unprecedented volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA), where systemic and holistic approaches are often warranted. This book aims to focus on the VUCA of addressing the future of energy and environment by considering contemporary issues and insights from diverse contexts, viewed as a system, and anchored upon emerging and smart energy technologies. |

It covers the six most important renewable energy sources - bioenergy, solar, geothermal, hydropower, ocean and wind energy - as well as their integration into present and future energy systems. It considers the environmental and social consequences associated with the deployment of these technologies, and presents strategies to overcome technical as well as non-technical obstacles to their application and diffusion. SRREN brings a broad spectrum of technology-specific experts together with scientists studying energy systems as a whole. Prepared following strict IPCC procedures, it presents an impartial assessment of the current state of knowledge: it is policy relevant but not policy prescriptive. SRREN is an invaluable assessment of the potential role of renewable energy for the mitigation of climate change for policymakers, the private sector, and academic researchers. |

| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: Exporting Through Intermediaries: Impact on Export Dynamics and Welfare Parisa Kamali, 2019-12-27 In many countries, a sizable share of international trade is carried out by intermediaries. While large firms tend to export to foreign markets directly, smaller firms typically export via intermediaries (indirect exporting). I document a set of facts that characterize the dynamic nature of indirect exporting using firm-level data from Vietnam and develop a dynamic trade model with both direct and indirect exporting modes and customer accumulation. The model is calibrated to match the dynamic moments of the data. The calibration yields fixed costs of indirect exporting that are less than a third of those of direct exporting, the variable costs of indirect exporting are twice higher, and demand for the indirectly exported products grows more slowly. Decomposing the gains from indirect and direct exporting, I find that 18 percent of the gains from trade in Vietnam are generated by indirect exporters. Finally, I demonstrate that a dynamic model that excludes the indirect exporting channel will overstate the welfare gains associated with trade liberalization by a factor of two. |

| ciem cloud infrastructure entitlement management: Handbook of Research on Digital Violence and Discrimination Studies Özsungur, Fahri, 2022-04-08 Digital violence continues to increase, especially during times of crisis. Racism, bullying, ageism, sexism, child pornography, cybercrime, and digital tracking raise critical social and digital security issues that have lasting effects.

A closer study of digital violence and its effects is necessary to develop lasting solutions. The Handbook of Research on Digital Violence and Discrimination Studies introduces the current best practices, laboratory methods, policies, and protocols surrounding international digital violence and discrimination. Covering a range of topics such as abuse and harassment, this major reference work is ideal for researchers, academicians, policymakers, practitioners, professionals, instructors, and students. |
