Talking Is Over!

Talking Is Over!
by Nick Ashton, CEO/CTO CommSmart Global

Terrorist murders in the name of Islam will not be stopped by conventional means.
Globally we must annihilate the monsters on their own doorsteps, which even means in each country.  The Lone Wolf Cells are everywhere and waiting to strike.

When it was stated last night by the U.S. Homeland Security that "there was no credible information of an attack on American soil", it is because they do not know.  It is impossible to know all the chatter or atmospherics in "real time". 

France had no idea that this was going to happen!

Physical terror attacks will happen again and again, until you tear down and kill the terrorists globally.

Understanding terrorism is the first step, but not the terrorism of old, it has changed from the days of the Irish Republican Amy, the Red Brigade and all other factions.  These morons of today know no fear and use the most disgusting means to kill and expand their message of fear...

Time for global action, not words...

PRESENT DAY CYBER SECURITY is a FIASCO

PRESENT DAY CYBER SECURITY is a FIASCO

by Nick Ashton, CEO/CTO, Red Tagged

FIASCO - 
a thing that is a complete failure, especially in a ludicrous or humiliating way.

"his plans turned into a fiasco"

synonyms: failure, disaster, catastrophe, debacle, shambles, farce, mess, wreck; informal flop, washout, snafu

It certainly describes the daily, if not hourly admission of C-Level Executives and their Boards of the Hacks of Digital Information.  By not informing your clients/customers of the invidious position you have placed them in, is criminal! 

Delaying the admission leaves every single other enterprise and government agency in a dire situation.  This information must be shared so all can be prepared.

It is Fess Up Time!

RED TAGGED is not here to be your friend, we are purely a business that will protect your BRAND, Shareholders and more importantly, your clients/customers!

There is very little that is not digital in nature, the Internet of Things (IoT) is going from the sublime to the ridiculous on what is being fitted with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi capabilities and connected to the Internet Sewer without any cyber security whatsoever.

Each new Internet gadget is a "door of hacker opportunity" and most Information Technology Departments do not have the budget allocation or the wear-with-all to protect the data that has been entrusted to them.

Government agencies, any Loyalty Card, Company, Hospitals, Healthcare, Doctors, Hotels, Conference Centers, Sports Arenas, Public Transportation... 

Let us stop there and include us all and everywhere there is method of connecting to the Internet.

The Internet and those darn Apps you keep loading on your Smartphones are killing your security factor!

That is why RED TAGGED has taken the Cyber Security Stewardship by the horns and concentrated on the security of all.

Corporate or government agency communications have more leaks than kitchen or garden sieve, yet you still use unencrypted or low level encryption means of communications!

STOP! 

Scoff if your wish, but facts are facts, RED TAGGED has the ability to encrypt all communications, voice and the written word and so can you.

Installation in a timely fashion is available on all your desktops, laptops, tablets, Smartphones and yes, even a Smartphone that has full Military Encryption 4096-bit RSA and useable worldwide, even in Wi-Fi hotspot.  

Tell that to a Secretary of State!

It starts with the analyze of your full data servers and software, evaluating who and what is gaining unauthorized entry or attempting to pry open the data doors.  That is where we start... and digitally watch in real time.

RED TAGGED are Forensic Archaeologist, looking at each layer of your digital past, brushing away the decaying software programs and data banks that have been forgotten or installed by prior IT heads or discarded when the company sold and are still storing information.

Making sense?

Is This Just Beligan Waffle or Do They Have a Serious Privacy Point?

Is This Just a Belgian Waffle or Do They Have a Serious Privacy Point?
by Nick Ashton, CEO/CTO, CommSmart Global Group of Companies

It is reported from Europe, Beligan in fact, that their courts have issued an ultimatum to Facebook to cease tracking new users.  

We shall explain, that it is really YOU that is the problem and can be fixed!

A court has given Facebook 48 hours to stop tracking people in Belgium who are not members of its social network.

"Facebook says it will appeal against the decision and that the order relates to a cookie it has used for five years.

The cookie is installed when an internet user visits a Facebook page even if they are not members.

However, the Belgian court said that the company was obliged to obtain consent to collect the information being gathered.

"The judge ruled that this is personal data, which Facebook can only use if the internet user expressly gives their consent, as Belgian privacy law dictates," it said in a statement.

If Facebook fails to comply, it could face a fine of up to 250,000 euros (£180,000) per day.

The fine would go to the Belgian Privacy Commission, which brought the case, the court added."

So reports the BBC.  BBC Report

Privacy?  

What do you expect?  Is it your responsibility to protect your own privacy?

It is YOU who use the so called social media sites that are so anti-social, they bleed red.  What do YOU expect?

YOU share Too Much Information (TMI), and wonder why people, both good and bad attack you!  Facebook is a Burglar's  & Stalker's Paradise!  

YOU post where you are at, when your parties are, where you are going on vacation and how your brother or sister just purchased a new flat screen or expensive breed of dog or cat. By the way, that is just my sister! 

Then there is the company you work for, bragging on what you do and how they have developed a new product or gizmo which is worth millions.  All information that has a value to someone, somewhere and free for them to log and us.

STOP IT!

Oh, how about those Apps you download onto your Smartphone?  They track you, know what you buy, what you are doing on the Internet and Google loves you!  Each time you log into a Google App, your Smartphone lets Google have all your current data, even the last phone call or text to the Mistress!

YOU are the one complaining about PRIVACY RIGHTS!

It Is Privacy Above ALL!

This is where Red Tagged comes in... 

Corporately, you must secure all data in motion, including voice calls within your company management, emails, text/chat, documents.  That means full military encryption on all communications, especially C-Level executives Smartphones, Desktop computers, Laptops and Tablets.

Firstly, your whole data servers and software needs examining to establish a baseline for what is going on each and every second of the day.  Requests, updates, who is authorized and who is attempting to hack you!  

You will be amazed that old software programs are still running way in the background, wasting time, productivity and extremely vulnerable to your BRAND.  Who still has access and who is really authorized to have this knowledge?

Over the years and changes in staff, both at the top and in-between, programs have been fixed, shored up and held together with band-aids, duct tape and staples. This must be resolved, removed and traced for all that have had access.

This is demanded before any changes can be applied.

Once establish, you can have a real time view of all activity, giving peace of mind, less headaches and lowering expense of putting out the Denial of Service attacks or hacking concerns.

Who has the key to your information?  This will change with a Dashboard that works on all platforms and devices, alleviating the worry of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD).  The Dashboard is your security without technically using a password which can be stolen or hacked.  

Red Tagged uses Device DNA!
