1).\u00a0<\/strong>EU DIGITAL IDENTITY: Advancing Secure and Trusted Electronic Identification through Certification<\/strong>. The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA<\/strong>), in collaboration with the European Commission, has been tasked with supporting the certification of the EU<\/strong> Digital Identity Wallets (EUDI<\/strong>). Aligned with Regulation (EU<\/strong>) 2024\/1183, which aims to establish the European Digital Identity Framework, the European Commission has called on ENISA<\/strong> to assist in certifying the EUDI<\/strong> Wallets. This includes the development of a candidate European cybersecurity certification scheme under the Cybersecurity Act.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

2).\u00a0<\/strong>CYBER COMPLIANCE: Faddom Announces New Platform to Support Compliance with Stricter European Cybersecurity Regulations<\/strong>. In anticipation of more stringent cybersecurity regulations across Europe, Faddom has introduced a new module designed to help businesses align with the complex requirements of the Network and Information Systems Directive (NIS2<\/strong>) and the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA<\/strong>). These regulations, which will come into effect in October 2024 and January 2025, respectively, set rigorous standards for cybersecurity and operational resilience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

3).\u00a0<\/strong>WHAT IS RANSOMWARE & Is Your SME Vulnerable to Ransomware Attacks? \u2013 CyberKPI<\/strong>: Ransomware uses encryption to hold a victim\u2019s information at a ransom, rendering it inaccessible until the attacker receives a payment. The malware<\/strong> used by the attackers now employ double-extortion and triple-extortion tactics. For instance, Cybercriminals<\/strong> not only encrypt the victim\u2019s data but also steal it, threatening to leak it if the ransom is not paid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
