New Release: PrivateEye Enterprise Delivers Data-In-Use Security

April 8th, 2013

Securing the Last Two Feet of the Internet, PrivateEye Enterprise Protects On-Screen Data Privacy 

 

Hunt Valley, Md. – April 8, 2013 – Oculis Labs, a developer of security software that protects computers from visual data leakage, today announced major feature and performance updates to PrivateEye™ Enterprise.  Designed to protect enterprise data at the point of use, PrivateEye Enterprise is an essential tool for organizations with a mobile workforce. Mobile device use in the enterprise means that sensitive data can be viewed anytime, anywhere – on laptops in a coffee shop, tablets in the airport, and smartphones everywhere. Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) and virtual desktops expose enterprise information 24 hours a day. PrivateEye Enterprise ensures your data is available to your employees and only to them – no matter where they happen to be located.

Studies by the US Secret Service have found that 20% of all computer breaches start with an unprotected computer screen. They found that attackers gained sufficient information from simple observation of employees’ displays to launch widespread and damaging attacks on organizations including financial, healthcare and the federal government.

PrivateEye Enterprise protects data whenever it appears on the screen. It runs within a user’s active session to monitor user attention and potential eavesdroppers to actively prevent breaches. The key insight differentiating PrivateEye is that the most immediate risk comes from direct observation of a computer display. Organizations exclusively using conventional access controls are still at risk because they fail to protect the data when it is being viewed.

“PrivateEye Enterprise helps us protect sensitive client healthcare and financial information,” said Jody Buyalos, Executive Vice President of The Insurance Exchange. “In our business client confidentiality cannot be left to chance – our customers depend on it.  We like the simplicity of use, and the confidence it gives us to know that customer information is being continually protected.”

The new release achieves up to a 90% reduction in power consumption through refinements in Oculis Labs’ patent-pending technology for user attention sensing.  PrivateEye protects on-screen data without requiring expensive face recognition for access control. The solution’s continuous attention sensing capability links the person sitting in front of the computer to a prior successful login. This approach simplifies administration because there is no database of authorized user faces to be approved and managed by a central authority.

Also new in this release, is support for Windows 8 and Citrix XenDesktop. Whether it is the latest Windows tablet, or a large scale Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) deployment, PrivateEye Enterprise will protect on-screen data.

Key PrivateEye Enterprise features include:

 

  • Screen Protection – Automatically protects the screen whenever the user looks away from it.  Instantly clears it again when the user looks back.
  • Policy Management – Enables administrators to manage licenses and security policies for PrivateEye Enterprise clients using standard software and policy distribution mechanisms.
  • Eavesdropper Prevention – Detects and/or protects whenever eavesdroppers try to read a display.
  • Incident Capture – Captures and timestamps pictures of anyone attempting to eavesdrop over a user’s shoulder.  Enables detection and mitigation of social engineering threats.

 

SC Magazine had this to say about PrivateEye Enterprise: “This is about the coolest and, at the same time, most useful security product we have seen in a long time. It is simple to use, very effective, and actually serves a real and important purpose.”

The new version of PrivateEye Enterprise is available immediately at a price of $60 for a single license, and with larger corporate licenses is available as low as $30 per seat.  Customers can download a 30 day free trial at www.privateeyeenterprise.com.

5 Steps to Ensure Your Computer Privacy

December 17th, 2012

Your computer is your gateway to your online life.  Every day you read and post to social media, email colleagues and friends, share photos, and documents.  You probably do your banking, book travel, and manage your daily plans and schedules.  Most people are so connected they forget just how much data goes in… and how much could come out.

You’re not leading the life of an international spy, so you don’t need to worry that your every move is being watched.   Still, you do need to be concerned about some things you’re doing that could land you in serious trouble.

Here are the top 5 steps you should take to ensure you don’t become a privacy victim:

  1. Lock your screen.  Sometimes we forget to take the simplest security measures.  You need to keep out the people who could use your absence to plug in a USB drive and steal your data.   If you’re going to be away even briefly, lock your screen.   Better yet – use a security system like PrivateEye that will automatically lock it for you whenever you’re away.
  2. Be aware of your surroundings.  A bit of healthy caution is better than blind trust.  This means you can’t ignore the people who surround you every day.  Every now and then take a look around at who is close enough to be snooping at your screen.  Assess the situation.  Are you working on something you wouldn’t post for everyone to see?  If that’s true take care to ensure your screen is not visible to passers-by.
  3. Expect to be famous.  You may not face daily battles with the Paparrazi, but you might consider adopting something of that mindset to your online presence. You need to realize that everything you post could be collected, collated, compiled, analyzed and used against you.  It’s not only public search tools you need to consider, but private tools and databases as well.  With a few clicks a potential thief can get from your “on vacation in Aruba” Facebook post to your home address, telephone number, bank, license plate and social security number.  Beware that what you post is available to people who are not your friends.
  4. Use a VPN on public WiFi.    Did you know that everything you send over an http:// web connection can be seen by a network snooper?  Someone could be sitting right next to you in a coffee shop collecting all of your social networking data – including passwords.  And if you use the same password for other accounts – like your bank account – you could be asking for serious trouble.
  5. Encrypt your drive.   It doesn’t matter how careful you are with passwords and network access if your laptop falls into the wrong hands.  If you have a standard OS it means all your data, web history, and communications can be extracted from the hard drive.  Your password isn’t going to help you because an attacker can bypass your operating system and go straight to reading data from the drive.  The only way to prevent this is to run a full disk encryption product that turns your drive into a brick when you’re not using it.

Insider Threat: A Closer Look

December 12th, 2012

You spend the better part of every day working closely with colleagues who share the same goals.  You’re all loyal, hardworking and smart.  Well, mostly all.  If there’s a social engineer in your office you get just two out of three. Social engineers work hard and they’re smart – they’re just not on your side.

Let’s take a closer look at the insider threat and try to understand why your conventional security products can’t stop it.

 

Simple Observation: What you see is what you get

Studies by the Secret Service, Verizon Business, and CERT at Carnegie Mellon have found up to 50% of information security breaches are caused by insiders.  These are employees with an axe to grind, or who see an opportunity for financial gain.  They’re not easy to spot – demographic analysis shows no easy pattern to finding the bad apples before they spoil.

You might think you could easily spot them by their hacker credentials, pasty complexion and tendency to cackle aloud.  You’d be wrong.  The same studies found an astonishing 42% of insider breaches involved no more than simple observation of computer screens.  There were no sophisticated tools involved, just the skill to look around the office and discover the orienting information needed for a successful breach.

To a social engineer intent on extracting data, the modern office reads like an open book.  Over-the-shoulder reconnaissance reveals what is available, where it is, and who has access to it – all the ingredients an adversary needs to succeed at a data breach.

Whether it starts inside or out breaches are expensive, costing companies an average of $750,000 per incident.

Government Legislation to the Rescue?

The U.S. Government has recognized the issue and in 2010 updated the legal definition of Computer Trespassing to include “looking at a computer screen that an individual was not authorized to view.”

While the new statute makes it easier to prosecute social engineers, catching or (even better) preventing them remains the primary challenge.   What’s lacking are technical security solutions to protect information over the last two feet of the network: from the screen to the user’s eyes.

Conventional Security Stops Short

You’ve got an IT department to stay on top of security threats, so you’re probably wondering where all that money has been going.   Conventional security tools are all about protecting data “on-the-wire” – inside the network and on your hard drive.  That’s necessary, but not sufficient.

Organizations that focus exclusively on network security may keep out external attackers, but that’s not enough to prevent insider-driven breaches.  Without also protecting data-in-use on computer screens it’s like locking the doors while leaving the windows open.

Securing the Last Two Feet

To counter the insider threat we need to think about the full information lifecycle – from creation to consumption.  Where portions of that cycle are exposed to the outside world we need to think about who has access and how to control it.  There’s a lot of “low-hanging fruit” along that path.  The next time you’re thinking about allocating resources to some expensive network security project consider first the completely unprotected spaces between the user and the screen and plug them first.  You’ll save money and come out ahead on security at the same time.

The International Association of Privacy Professionals and HP presented Oculis Labs with the 2012 HP-IAPP Privacy Innovation Award last week at the annual award dinner.   That’s me,  Bill Anderson, Oculis Labs’ CEO, making my acceptance speech.

This award is very important to Oculis Labs.  The IAPP is a 13,000-member strong global organization dedicated to advancing the practice of protecting privacy.  Their members are some of the top policy makers, lawyers, and practitioners in the business and their work protects hundreds of thousands of individuals in 70 countries.   To be selected by IAPP, and to be considered in such company as previous award winners Microsoft, IBM, and Novell is an honor and a recognition we take very seriously.

I attended the privacy conference sessions and learned a lot about how privacy professionals approach their work, and saw the implementation challenges caused by policy, regulation, and personnel considerations.  It’s not just about the technology. Fortunately, the feedback I received from the many members I talked with indicates that PrivateEye Enterprise is a very useful tool and can play an important part.  I’m looking forward to participating in future IAPP events.
