<b><i>For 12 years in a row, GlobalSign continues to display the WebTrust Seal of
assurance for CA and EV SSL.</i></b><br />
<b><i><br /></i></b>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
The latest audits are out and <a href="http://www.globalsign.com.sg/">GlobalSign</a> is both proud and excited to
display the <a href="http://www.webtrust.org/">WebTrust</a> Seal of assurance
once more. This is the 12<sup>th</sup> year that the SaaS-based Certificate
Authority is awarded this accreditation by Ernst & Young making it one of
the longest WebTrust compliant companies throughout the industry.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This year, in addition to the <a href="https://cert.webtrust.org/ViewSeal?id=1514">WebTrust Seal for Certificate
Authority</a>, and the <a href="https://cert.webtrust.org/ViewSeal?id=1511">Seal
for EV SSL</a>, GlobalSign is also granted the official assurance for <a href="https://cert.webtrust.org/ViewSeal?id=1515">compliance to Baseline
Requirements</a>.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To be eligible for the WebTrust seal of assurance, a
Certificate Authority issuing publicly trusted Digital Certificates used to
secure website, e-documents, and emails must comply with the industry set code
of practice. Among the audit requirements one must meet to be awarded the
WebTrust compliance are assurance of customer authentication procedures,
secured Certificate issuance infrastructure, and a sophisticated plan for
handling customer data.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This earned recognition proves that GlobalSign, through
providing customers with the strongest, most secure, and most reliable online
authentication services worldwide, is living up to its SSL mission of being
more than a Certificate Authority (CA). <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With the growing complexities of the internet, digital
certificates generated with 1024 bit key encryptions are no longer advisable. While
they proved to be unbreakable for the past few decades, with the advances in
technology, Generation X now has the ability of decrypting these chains allowing
a successful Man in the Middle attack resulting to unauthorized access to personally
identifiable information. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Understanding this curve of development in algorithms, the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has recommended all CAs
to use 2048 bit key lengths on all issued digital certificate starting November
2010. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

guidelines and recommendations</a> (in advisories 800-57 and 800-131) and
Microsoft’s mandatory requirements of Microsoft’s Root Certificate Program
(Technical Requirement Point 11). All of the issued digital certificates from
the GlobalSign comprehensive product line from December of 2010 have 2048 bit
key encryptions giving customers double protection from possible breach of

something in mind on what gift to give to your sweet mothers. There may
probably be a few who are still undecided on what to give and opted to search
online for the best mother’s day gift. There’s nothing wrong with this as this
is what Google coined the Zero Moment of Truth. A word of caution though,
cybercriminals will not get past this occasion without preparing some scams and
</span><a href="https://www.globalsign.com.sg/ssl-information-center/advance-technology-to-catch-phishing-attacks.html" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">phishing

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Most often than not, scammers will set up online stores and
blast e-mails with the intent of robbing your account details and credit card
information. A recent report<a href="http://goo.gl/ivZ20">*</a> showed that
there have been recorded attacks since last week luring online shoppers to fall
prey to a bogus link attached in e-mails. These Bogus links offer cheap flowers
for Mother’s Day that says "Don't Forget Mother's Day - $19.99 Flowers.” When
clicked, it redirects to a site selling masculine products such as cars,
televisions, and the like. Should the shopper decide to push the purchase or
checkout button, his/her credit card information will be stolen.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A <a href="https://www.globalsign.com/support/csrgen.php">Certificate Signing
Request (CSR)</a> is an encrypted body of text generated on the web server
where the <a href="http://www.globalsign.com.sg/ssl">SSL certificate</a> is installed. It is a code necessary for the
application and activation of an SSL certificate.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Generally, CSRs contain encoded information
specific to the registered domain name and the company requesting the SSL
certificate. These CSRs usually include details such as: Country, State (or
Province), Locality (or City), Organization (Company Name), Organizational Unit
(Department), and Common Name (website/domain). To be valid, all these
information must be filled out correctly. Moreover, the CSR also contains the
public key which is needed to encrypt and secure sensitive information as they
are transmitted from the website to the server. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The private key is generated at the time
the CSR and public key are created, but it is only kept secret by the technical
end user and is not part of the signing request.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

technical know-how on CSR generation but would like to secure their servers and
websites with SSL certificates. With AutoCSR, the CA who issued the certificate
will generate the CSR on behalf of the organization making the order. The
required fields should be filled out accordingly during the certificate

<span style="color: #696767; font-family: Lucida Grande, Lucida Sans Unicode, Helvetica, Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">GlobalSign
Philippines is pleased to announce that it will be moving to a bigger
office. Starting March 18, 2013, GlobalSign Philippines will be holding
office at the <strong> 23rd Fl. Zuellig Building, Paseo de Roxas Ave., Corner Makati Ave., Makati City, 1227, Philippines. </strong> <br />
<br />
The decision to house GlobalSign
Philippines’ operations in a larger office was fueled by the country's
staggering economic growth bringing a surge in online security demand.
This milestone is a strong indication that the company is better
prepared to conquer Philippines’ online security arena and drive its way
to becoming the Certificate Authority of choice in the country. <br />
<br />
GlobalSign Philippines’ expansion opens a
window of opportunities for Filipino IT enthusiasts who are strongly
inclined to providing quality service not only to the Filipino
customers, but also to the US, UK, and the rest of Asia Pacific. <br />
<br />
The GlobalSign Philippines Team will be
more than happy to meet you face-to-face to explore opportunities and
help you with your online security needs. See you at the Zuellig
Building! </span> <br /> <br />

<i>Anonymous
India hacked into India's largest fixed line telecoms operator
Bharhat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) and leaked company information
in protest of the country's IT Act Section 66A which restricts
citizen's freedom of speech and expression.</i> <u><a href="http://www.zdnet.com/in/indian-telco-bsnls-web-site-breached-by-anonymous-india-7000008789/"><span style="color: blue;">*</span></a></u><br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Today,
we can say whatever we want and let the world hear our voice without
even speaking, thanks to the famous World Wide Web. You post one
statement, it becomes controversial, then the next thing you know, it
is already the talk of the whole world. The internet rapidly evolved
into a blank slate where everyone can paint their ideas and opinions.
It is a place where everyone felt free to do whatever, until
government agencies drafted laws for cybersecurity.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Since
the birth of democracy, protesting has become a common response when
people feel their freedom is being threatened. Over the years, and
across the globe, protesting has been and will always be people’s
way of publicly announcing their objections and desires.
Unsurprisingly, forms of protests have evolved with technology.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
A
proof to this is the recent breach in India. Indian government
officials legislated a law which is allegedly suppressing citizen’s
freedom of speech and expression. As a response, to the threat,
Anonymous India hacked India’s largest telecoms operator, Bharhat
Sanchar Nigam Limited.</div>

<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
We all
know that hackers are very prevalent nowadays and the each nation's
government finds it hard to control them. But putting a law into it
might be beneficial to the government and the citizens even if it
seems contradictory. </div>
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
This
particular protest may have a positive goal but a cybercrime is still
a crime regardless of the end. For companies, government offices, and
personal websites to avoid these instances in the future, they must
ensure their websites with strong SSL Certificates from a trusted
Certificate Authority. GlobalSign, being one of the world's largest
SSL and client certificate provider, has just the right solutions for
different needs. GlobalSign offers a wide range of trust services and
products. It offers SSL certificates secured by the highest

<i>Companies
progressively use automated controls to manage cost business
operations and minimize business risk, says Turnkey Consulting.</i><br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Automated
control is the application of control theory for regulation of
processes without direct human intervention. Simply put, it means
that it can self-regulate a technical-plant (such as a machine or
industrial process) operating condition or parameters by the
controller with minimal human engagement.

<i>Companies
worldwide are planning to invest and rely on IT departments to
increase efficiency on their work, stating that investments over the
next three years will focus on cloud computing and business analysis
software.</i><u><a href="http://www.eweek.com/it-management/it-making-businesses-more-efficient-juniper/"><span style="color: blue;">*</span></a></u><br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Careers
in IT seem promising for 2013. Surprisingly, the highest-performing
companies – those that reported their financial performance is
stronger that their industry peers – measured a different advantage
for IT in their business.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western">
"We must embrace disruptive
technologies such as cloud and mobile that are propelling business
growth to create an opportunity for IT to step out of a support
function into a more strategic role," Juniper Networks Senior
Vice President and CIO Bask Iyer said in a statement. "By
creating new products and services and identifying new market
opportunities, IT can truly transform and technologically enable the
business.”</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western">
It's no question that IT can really
deliver fast and reliable outcome. In fact, one of the main strengths
of IT is the efficient execution of general business processes
allowing industries to save not only time, but unnecessary cost.
Thus, many businesses, with no doubt, will reach maximum growth
should they begin to shift to and embrace IT operations.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western">
This however, is not always the
perspective when it comes to IT. Comparatively, small scale
businesses or businesses not related to IT slowly recognize the
potential value IT has to offer as a collaborative partner in
identifying new opportunities.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western">
Given that IT brings a number of
advantages, it still has its flaws which may explain why some people
are not fully receptive of it. If the system is not strongly guarded
enough, data may be breached and lost in an instant. With the vast
number of IT industries, the big question is who to trust? That’s
where GlobalSign can help. We are one of the world’s largest
Certificate Authorities and it’s our job to answer the question of
trust. GlobalSign offers a wide range of trust services and products.

<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
A
group of hackers named “Code Crackers”, also part of a larger
cybercriminal group Pakistan Cyber Army, breached a total of 437
Government websites, posting their group’s defaced image on the

This
is not the first time the website of Xuchang City People's
Procuratorate endured a breach. Last September 2010, an Indonesian
cybercriminal group, “Hmei7”, hacked the website. And just
recently, last November 29, 2012, it suffered yet another breach by a
group named “DevilzSec”. It just shows to prove that Xuchang City
People's Procuratorate website has the information that hackers would
need or want. Regardless of the reason, they should be alert before
another group makes a four-peat!</div>

<i>A
group of 16 Romanians were allegedly involved in probably “one of
the largest data breach investigation ever undertaken by Australian
law enforcement.” </i><br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
The
obvious crime done was the robbery of information of more or less
500,000 Australians who have done their purchases using their credit
cards. How this was done was through the break-in of hackers to the
database of 100 retail stores where customers’ card information
were stored at the time of purchase. Police said that they weren’t
able to exactly quantify, but about 30,000 of the stolen card detail
from Australian businesses’ database were already used to illegally
buy things worth $30M.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Apparently,
retail stores were independently operated and small scale in nature,
thus making them more vulnerable and easier targets because no
stringent security protocols are employed in their internal computer
systems. This has been the common game plan for cyber criminal these
days; small businesses become easy targets because of their illusions
of invulnerability –thinking that since they are small in size,
they would not attract any cybercriminals.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
All
affected businesses were told how they were hacked, and they all
agreed to install better security systems which would prevent any
such event again. On the negative side, those are only 100 out of the
almost 500,000 involved. It has come to authorities’ knowledge that
Australians whose credit card information were exposed are still
unaware of the privacy breach. Despite this, authorities claimed that
none of them shall lose money as they are guarded by banks’ and
financial institutions’ privacy policies.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
“Australian
banks and credit unions have reimbursed the 30 million dollars in
financial losses suffered by the 30,000 Australians whose credit card
details were used to commit frauds around the world and will continue
to bear the cost if more frauds are committed.” <u><a href="http://www.acapma.com.au/articles/police-smash-global-gang-behind-500-000-aussie-credit-card-thefts.html"><span style="color: blue;">*</span></a></u></div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
This
issue has been raised! Why suffer and take the blame when it's not
your fault? Whether you're managing a small scale business or you're
the online shopper who keeps on purchasing, you need to be educated
on security. Not just for our own benefits but for others as well.

<i>Spear
phishing emails rather than the mass phishing mails is reported to be
the tactic Phishers will be using this coming 2013.</i><br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Mass
phishing - technique where phishers distribute thousands or millions
of emails to potential victims to extract information from those
who’ll give in to the trap - is no longer effective and is said to
be the thing of the past. Spear phishing is said to be the new thing.
Many say it is a more powerful tool than the mass phishing as attacks
will be more planned and victims will be well targeted. How
cybercriminals do this is through stalking and carefully studying a
handful pick of victims and tailor the message until it is relevant
to the recipient, enough for them to believe and respond either by
clicking on the link, opening an attachment, or providing personal
information.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
It is
a known fact that as technology continuously evolves, so does the
strategy of cybercriminals. Rohyt Belani, CEO at PhishMe said “If
2012 was the year of BYOD, 2013 will be the year of mobile malware
designed to take advantage of it. We have seen a growth in consumer
apps that violate privacy, for example by tracking your GPS data, but
in 2013 we will see criminals targeting mobile device users,
specifically with the intention of getting inside their corporate
email system.” <u><a href="http://www.net-security.org/secworld.php?id=14058&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:+HelpNetSecurity+(Help+Net+Security)&utm_content=Google+Reader"><span style="color: blue;">*</span></a></u></div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Come
to think of it, it's really possible that BYOD hackers will be
successful at phishing information from users who surf the internet
through their mobile devices especially now that mobile devices
including smartphones and tablets can gain access to corporate
database. This being the case, it will be advisable for corporations
who embraced BYOD to be more aware of security protocols and more
cautious of the files and/or links they will be opening because one
wrong move can get your corporate network exposed and none of you
will be happy about it.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
“Spear
phishing attacks are performed by humans, against humans.” While it
is existent that we have software solutions, it will never be hurtful
to be more cautious and to be more prepared. As the cliché goes,
regrets are felt when it's just too late. So start installing
antiviruses or Digital Certificate as an early preventive measure.
These products combined with education of employees will help them
become more sensitive to threats and understand when and why they
need to report such suspicious attacks.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
From
the above-mentioned details, it is fitting that we learn more of
these solutions and use them at their best. GlobalSign, being one of
the longest established Certification Authorities and leading online
security solutions has always been committed to providing customers
with the most up to date security solutions capable of guarding users
against modern-day attacks. One of its offered products is SSL

<i>Ever
wonder why a lot of people keep on buying insurances? Insure a house,
a life, a material possession, and the list goes on. The inflated
rate is brought by the growing number of people who want to secure
their possessions before they’re gone, and/or the increasing need
to put up investments which may secure them from the negative global
economic recession.</i><br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Just
like all insurances, you buy the policy for future purposes – be it
for your child, other dependents, or maybe just your investment to
gain cash given a period of time. Whatever your reason, bottom line
is, buying these insurances is for protection and assurance that
whatever happens in this unpredicted life, at least you were ready.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
People
insure everything. Even mobile phones and laptops get to be insured.
More often than not, people insure tangible things, but as identity
fraud, data breaches, and document alteration continuously increase
in a rapid rate, won’t websites and other online housed data be
worth an insurance too? Problem is, putting this into practice is not
as easy as ABC as people will always think they are invulnerable to
such attacks until they become victims themselves. They always have
this impression that because they are not big names in the society or
that since they are part of the SMEs, they will be attack-free. This
is where they're wrong, cybercriminals find these firms and take
advantage of them.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
How
you see your data is not how cyber criminals see them. To these
people, your data, no matter how small, is still information which
may help them make money. This is a very lucrative kind of business
as the operation has global scope. When security is at stake, there
is no better time to safeguard yourself and learn the best practices
to keep safe but now. As internet is penetrating regions in a very
fast pace, it may be harder to believe that we can ever eliminate
cybercrimes. But as they say, if you can't get rid of it at least
prevent it.

“<i>Many
foreign have long recognized the potential China and India present,
based on the size of the market and predicted growth in e-commerce”
-Paul Jung, Visa – Head of e-commerce solutions for APAC</i><br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Foreign
investors plan to breakthrough the e-commerce walls of China and
India but penetrating the local market surfaces as a major challenge.
Being a company decision maker, you will have to study the market
very eagerly, their behavior in consuming products: how they buy –
either through cash or credit card, when they buy – be it holidays,
weekends, or every cut-off of salary, and where they buy – do they
a lot time to go to the mall or are the consumers way too busy and
shop online instead?
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Entering
a new market is a risk every business has to face. But these risks
are calculated risks, meaning the risk of failing has been minimized
thru an extensive study and research. However, according to Kumar
Das, IDC Center for Consultancy and Research – research manager of
retail insights for APAC, said that markets in both countries still
lack the technological and logistic infrastructure for e-commerce.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Just
like in any other country, people from rural areas find it hard to
have an access to internet connection. And with this, people find it
hard to trust e-commerce, due to the obvious reason – security.
Everyone is pretty careful when it comes to purchasing online, who
else to blame when cybercriminals are also part of that next big
thing.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
It
will be difficult though for foreign investors to analyze the market
as they need to segment locals based on their behavior. Shift
strategies per capita including pricing, marketing, purchasing,
branding and promoting. One of which is to enter partnership with
local businesses. This helps them gain people’s trust more easily.</div>

<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
<i>Why
go Cloud even if it is not the ultimate solution?</i></div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
We all
know that Cloud is a service model in which data is stored and backed
up remotely and made available to users over a network (which in this
case, the Internet). But how helpful can it get when fortuitous
events take over?</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Tsunami
in Japan, Ondoy in the Philippines, and Sandy in the United States of
America are few of the calamities which have greatly affected
business operations. Many companies lost physical and on premise hard
wares where they store database and sensitive corporate information.
This leaves enterprises with nothing but hopes that damaged devices
work again.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
This
is not anymore the usual case today. Companies can get rid of the
dilemma of disaster recovery through a relatively simple solution–
migrating to the cloud. Adopting the Cloud can unquestionably help
business continuity. How? Cloud protects data by nature of its design
as data are stored off-premise on a cloud of inter-connected data
centers. This way there is better assurance that data remains
untouched.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
But of
course in every <i>pro</i> there's got to be a <i>con</i>. Running
your entire business under Cloud is not advisable mainly because
companies handling the Cloud storage also have physical presence and
because of this, they are not disaster proof. Moreover, what seems to
be a bigger issue is that Cloud, just like any other hosting
services, is prone to cybercriminals.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
With
the vision of developing secure and cost-effective technologies,
GlobalSign came up with a solution that will allow users to
confidently migrate to the Cloud without worries of being compromised
nor lost - CloudSSL. Since in Cloud, information is repeatedly stored
on data centers in many locations, you will always be able to
retrieve data should anything go wrong.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
GlobalSign’s
CloudSSL is an SSL distribution service available via API and is
designed specifically to help web services operate securely in the
Cloud. It removes the restrictions of traditional SSL, such as one
Certificate per IP address, and can be used across large virtualized
environments without incurring additional license fees. CloudSSL
partners make on-demand requests for SSL Certificates, including
request for their customer base all within the top level Certificate
issued to the Cloud partner. All the time meeting the highest
security associated with the GlobalSign SSL brand.</div>

<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
<i>For
the Western part of the world, Cyber Monday is very common in the
ecommerce industry. But for the Eastern side, have you guys ever
heard of it?</i></div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
This
happens the Monday after Thanksgiving. In the United States, it is
customary to celebrate Thanksgiving every fourth Thursday of
November. And the day after that is called Black Friday – this
connotes the first day for Christmas shopping.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Back
in 2005, it was listed that the Monday after Black Friday established
a significant growth in online shopping and it was known that people
from work has been a big contribution for this. Hence, Cyber Monday
was born. The explanation behind is that people were back in their
computers after a long weekend celebration. And since they got less
time to buy for the Holiday season, they tend to shop online. And
this practice has been running until today.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Merchants
then would like to accumulate significant shares of sales volume thus
creating discounts and coupons as their promotions. Generally,
Thanksgiving is celebrated at the United States and Canada so
thinking about it, it will not make sense if there is Cyber Mondays
across the nation. But ecommerce is just a click away, everyone can
participate. Who wouldn't if there are discounts to be given away
during the holidays.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
With
this phenomenon, I've come across an article which has put together
some <u><a href="http://www.cybermonday2012.com/2011/11/safe-cyber-monday-shopping/"><span style="color: blue;">tips</span></a></u>
on how to stay safe when shopping on Cyber Monday.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
1.
<b>Shop trustworthy websites. </b>If a store sounds shady, it is
worth the extra time and effort to check them out. Search for their
name on Amazon and see if they have a reseller rating. Are their
websites clean and efficient or thrown together and hard to maneuver?
That is another huge red flag – reliable sites usually LOOK
reliable. Keep this in mind before pulling the trigger on a purchase.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
2.
<b>Protect your personal information. </b>Again, if the site is not
secure, or just looks plain sketchy – don't give them your personal
information. This really speaks for itself.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
3.
<b>Beware of deals that sound TOO great. </b>A Black Friday travel
deal that boasts a Bahamas Vacation for $200 is probably too good to
be true. Some of these sites will lead with promises of huge deals,
but when you get into the fine print, you end up spending thousands.
Always, ALWAYS read the fine print if a deal sounds too good to be
true, it’s worth the extra effort to avoid finding out the hard
way.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
4.
<b>Confirm that your purchase is secure. </b>When you start the
checkout process, look at the URL. <b>Most trusted sites start with
https</b>. This means that the transactions will be secure. While
this is not a foolproof method, it is a great way to quickly check
whether or not your information will be secure.
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifmz2UGm2wIa6jf5X-to0KcNciDsLwdLr7mILcf8GK1Lp_jtoncY2r4NSckCBLwT_m9Tc8Zt4grwbSyEmtsKNVOr0kkKhLRJoRsdCyFxYWLzjNdb-l6AEGJXevdPioV6B4_Ltiz7UjaUY/s1600/safeshopping1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifmz2UGm2wIa6jf5X-to0KcNciDsLwdLr7mILcf8GK1Lp_jtoncY2r4NSckCBLwT_m9Tc8Zt4grwbSyEmtsKNVOr0kkKhLRJoRsdCyFxYWLzjNdb-l6AEGJXevdPioV6B4_Ltiz7UjaUY/s1600/safeshopping1.jpg" /></a></div>
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
<br />5. <b>Pay
with a credit card. </b>Credit card gees can be disputed. If the
company you purchased from turns out to be fraudulent, you have the
right to dispute the charges.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
6.
<b>Keep all records and confirmations. </b>This should go without
saying. Always print your confirmation numbers and receipts. Or take
a screen shot and save it to your computer. The best way to dispute
issues is with evidence. If you have the paperwork to prove things,
you'll feel more secure.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Does Facebook really protect their users’
information or are your details subject to being compromised without you really
knowing?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">A Czech blogger exposed that there was a
list of accounts containing over a million Facebook users being offered at a
cheap price of $5<a href="https://www.net-security.org/secworld.php?id=13870">*</a>.
He admittedly bought a list to feed his curiosity if the list is legitimate or
no. To his surprise, majority of the included account details were accurate,
even finding some of his friends’ accounts along with it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Not long after he had this strong statement
<i>against</i> Facebook’s security policies,
Facebook employees started contacting him digging for further information and asking
him to remove the not-so-good comments he included in his blog. He submitted to
the request and did what they want but he also asked them if they knew anything
about it and if it is possible to receive some updates on the investigation.
Unfortunately, Facebook said that it will be an internal investigation and that
they cannot give out any further information until everything is settled. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Keeping people from using social media,
especially Facebook, will be too much of a work for influential people, even
the government. With rapid penetration and increasing rate of signed up users,
it has rapidly become one of the best networking channel. It may even be safe
to say that it has already replaced the traditional way people meet and greet,
and share important updates of their lives. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">What people opt to do is just to be extra
cautious of the sites they sign up on. Keeping in mind the basics of online
security will be of great help. This should include being keen in looking for
the indications of an SSL secured website: yellow padlock, green address bar, and
secure site seal. It may not be a strong wall guarding you against the huge
wave of attacks, but at least it will keep you off the shock. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Keeping yourself abreast of the latest news
on online threat and security, and on ways how to address and combat them
accordingly surely are of great help to keep you from the peril of many
cybercrimes and attacks. What most people sometimes forget is that just like
website owners and law makers, they themselves also have a huge role on
protecting their security and privacy online. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Many people blame the lame and
unsophisticated infrastructure of institutions and organizations for successful
instances of phishing and malware distribution attacks. Consciously or
unconsciously, most people always see the fault as beyond their control and
responsibility. While this is partly true, the consumers’ uninfluenced and
independent decisions to sign up, agree to the terms and conditions, and use
the organizations’ services are enough to speak of their shared responsibility
on the data protection and security.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">As passwords become the primary gate
keepers to your account, make them as hard as possible to decrypt. While it is
good to know and be assured that your bank or service provider had pledged to
keep your data secured, it is also good to know that you are doing your part in
making this possible. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">There are a number of best practices

passwords ever. Some of these are as follow:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<ol start="1" style="margin-top: 0cm;" type="a">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Use at
least 8 – 10 character-long alpha numeric combination for your passwords.<o:p></o:p></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Refrain
from using your birthdate as your password as this is going to be easy to
track and decrypt should someone want to expose your account.<o:p></o:p></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">As much
as possible, do not create a password which is just from the characters of
one single row on the keyboard.<o:p></o:p></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Avoid
using the same password and username combination for multiple accounts.<o:p></o:p></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">While it
is important that your password be difficult to know, make sure that it
will not be very hard to remember that you still need to write it on a
piece of paper or put it as a note on your desktop as this will only
defeat the purpose of having a hard to guess password.<o:p></o:p></span></li>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">With the complexity of today’s
technological processes, passwords may only be good at keeping your records
safe until the witty hackers found the right combination of characters to open
and expose your account. As there are increasingly more and more tools to be
used in decrypting account passwords, if users become laxed with their
passwords, it will not be long before they experience data breaches. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">It may sound cliché but it is true,

is known as the attempt to get users to reveal personal and sensitive
information through sending emails purporting to be coming from
legitimate sources. It is very apparent in today’s IT industry
bringing along more damages as its stays active for a longer period
of time.<br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Phishers
are getting smarter and more strategic. They are “compromising
legitimate websites using automated attack tools,” which means that
they do not just hack one account at a time but they can corrupt even
thousands of accounts at once just by breaking into shared hosting
web servers. This has gotten a lot worse. Most of them even phish at
SSL secured websites taking advantage of users’ heightened
vulnerability to click on just any link that pops up because of the
trust they have on the supposedly secure site.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
Just
recently, news about Japanese banks being hit by phishing attacks
became the talk of the online world. The attack particularly affected
customers with accounts for online banking. What makes this case
special, or better yet alarming, is the fact that even Japanese, who
are known to be globally competitive in term of technology, have also
been victims of malicious online criminals. How did phisher outwit
the technologically competent Japanese people? Police suspect that
attacks are brought out via PC viruses, where infected PCs display
misleading messages to users entering the website.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
From
the above-mentioned account, it may be safe to conclude that to
successfully triumph against unwanted security threats, it is best to
utilize the most updated and comprehensive solutions in the online
security market. GlobalSign, being one of the longest established
Certification Authorities and leading online security solutions has
always been committed to providing customers with the most up to date
security solutions capable of guarding them against modern-day
attacks.
</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
It has
recently partnered with NetCraft, a provider of internet security
services including anti-fraud and anti-phishing services, to generate
a first-of-its-kind service providing SSL Certificate customers with
real-time alerts should their websites be vulnerable to being used to
host phishing attacks. Along with the notification comes a quick
recommendation of the steps how to remediate the attack. Isn’t that
just the solution almost everyone needs today? With GlobalSign SSL
certificates and phishing detection service working back to back, you
can devote more time in growing your business without worry of being
compromised or used as phishing agents.</div>

Know when the site is securedEver wonder why many people keep on opening attachments or pop-up
emails from literally any one who sends it? And why even if they know
it might be bogus, they still click the links. This is because they
trust the network/ social media they are in to.<br />
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
So if you are into facebook, twitter, yahoo, google or any other
network generator that handles account then you should be aware of
your site. You as a user should be aware if the sites you are
entering are protected, this is to lessen the increasingly spreading
of ransomware.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0.14in;">
For those of you who are not aware of ransomware, this is a type of
malware which restricts access to the computer system that it infects
and gain control again after a ransom is paid. It is very rampant to
date because people engage their time more online, making
cybercriminals see opportunities.</div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western">
“<span style="font-weight: normal;">While
antivirus companies look to stay ahead of criminals, many times they
fall behind -- or the criminals find some new method of attack. What
has made staying ahead so much harder is that users today don't need
to open an attachment or download anything. </span><b>They really
just need to click on the wrong link</b><span style="font-weight: normal;">.”</span></div>
<br />
<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western" style="font-weight: normal;">
It is
this easy to get hacked nowadays, thus it is highly recommended for
users to check if the site is safe to visit. So here's some pointers
on how to know if the site is secured just by the front page of it.</div>

HSBC experienced a distributed

<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western">
<span style="font-size: small;">The internet has been
home to people and users of different roots and intentions. Though
primarily created to ease the way computing and information sharing
is done, the online world has also been a fertile ground for crimes
and thefts. And yes, with this fact stated, NO ONE is ever secure. </span>

<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western">
<span style="font-size: small;">The above stated
account is a proof that even big players may end up being
compromised. Leaving many of us with the question of how much more
the threat for small businesses is. </span>

<div align="JUSTIFY" class="western">
<span style="font-size: small;">HSBC, being one of the
world's largest banking and financial services organizations, as well

issue where SSL Certificates can help. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
Certificates allows secure communication, eCommerce, and browsing, as
well as data protection and integrity. By installing SSL certificates
in servers and websites, business of all sizes are executing the best
prevention policy, thus lowering (or completely mitigating) the risk
of unwanted data breach.</span></div>
