These and many other insights are from Verizons 2020 Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR), downloadable here (PDF, 119 pp. free, opt-in). One of the most-read and referenced data breach reports in cybersecurity, Verizons DBIR, is considered the definitive source of annual cybercrime statistics. Verizon expanded the scope of the report to include 16 industries this year, also providing break-outs for Asia-Pacific (APAC); Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA); Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC); and North America, Canada, and Bermuda, which Verizon says is experiencing more breaches (NA).

The studys methodology is based on an analysis of a record total of 157,525 incidents. Of those, 32,002 met Verizons quality standards, and 3,950 were confirmed data breaches. The report is based on an analysis of those findings. Please see Appendix A for the methodology.

Key insights include the following:

Conclusion

Autonomous endpoints that can self-heal and regenerate operating systems and configurations are the future of cybersecurity, a point that can be inferred from Verizons DBIR this year. While CIOs are more budget-focused than ever, CISOs are focused on how to anticipate and protect their enterprises from new, emerging threats. Closing the asset management gaps while securing every endpoint is a must-have to secure any business today. There are several cybersecurity companies offering endpoint security today.Based on customer interviews Ive done, one of the clear leaders in endpoint resilience is Absolute Software, whose Resilience suite of applications ensures devices can self-heal its operating system, as well as any endpoint security control and productivity tool on any protected device.

As more employers reopen their offices, stores, and warehouses, a growing number of health tech companies are pitching smartphone apps and other tools to help them bring employees back to work safely in the Covid-19 era.

The tools go far beyond the infrared thermometers and temperature checks that have dominated the conversation around safely reopening. The new wave of software products allows employers to direct their workers to get a Covid-19 test, clear them to return to work, track their symptoms, and trace the contacts of anyone who tests positive for the coronavirus.

The rollouts are forcing digital health vendors and their employer customers to navigate a range of unprecedented legal, cultural, and financial questions. Among them: What kinds of surveillance can employers require their workers to submit to and will employees actually use these tools?

Theres also a looming question of whether employers will be willing to shell out for yet another wellness product at a time when theyre trying to avoid more layoffs and furloughs.

Theyre going to have to, to some degree, if they want to bring their employees back, said Greg Chittim, who co-leads the digital health and health IT practice at the consulting firm Health Advances.

In industries where routine screenings such as drug testing is not the norm, Chittim said, a large portion of the workforce will need to wrestle with how they transition to that and the executive teams and the benefits managers need to figure out how to buy that, and who to buy it from, and what they need, and how they can do it.

So far, the push on these offerings has been led by health tech companies that in normal times charge employers to help their workers navigate their health benefits. For example, Castlight Health last month rolled out its Working Well tool, which, among other things, uses machine learning to let employers forecast trends in health and productivity for the workforce.

Then theres Collective Health, which last month unveiled its Collective Go tool, which offers employers a free set of guidelines for returning to work and a paid app for workers to check their symptoms and exposures and navigate the status of their Covid-19 tests.

The idea is to provide evidence-based guidance to employers that otherwise dont know how to go about developing a return-to-work plan, said Rajaie Batniji, the companys chief health officer. In the absence of clear leadership here or clear guidance from the government, a lot of employers feel like theyre having to play armchair epidemiologist and very few employers are really positioned to do that, Batniji said.

Collective is immediately charging for the offering an approach that stands in contrast to some other back-to-work tools being rolled out for free, at least for now. Microsoft and the insurer UnitedHealth Group last month announced that they would offer U.S. employers free access to their ProtectWell smartphone app, designed to screen employees for Covid-19 symptoms and clear them for work.

Collective said it is signing up employers for the service through deals that are being inked separately from its existing benefits navigation contracts. The company declined to disclose any names of its new Collective Go customers, but said that one of its first customers is in the childcare services category; it is also seeing demand from medical systems, gig-economy services, manufacturers, and retail.

Many health tech companies are pitching their products to industries such as manufacturing that rely on warehouses and other physical workspaces, as well as essential businesses that dont need to go back to work, but whose employees have been at their workplace throughout the pandemic. The businesses theyre less focused on: Mostly white-collar industries that have the luxury of allowing their employees to continue to work from the couch at home.

Thats by design. While tech companies in Silicon Valley and other urban hubs have been early adopters of some digital health technologies, they have not historically accounted for a huge chunk of the revenue for employee wellness companies, which count on large blue chip employers with staff who tend to be older and sicker. And in the Covid-19 era, tech companies have signaled that they may be among the last to bring their workers back into the office, making them unlikely clients in the back-to-work business.

As has been the case in the employee wellness sector for years, some of the back-to-work tools may raise questions about whether employers are invading their workers privacy and so digital health vendors pitching pandemic-related services are taking steps to try to steer clear of such concerns.

Consider the health care artificial intelligence startup Jvion, which announced last month that it has developed an AI-powered survey for employers that their workers can take to get a recommendation on returning to work. Based on the employees answers, the tool spits out three possible statuses: cleared to return, medical clearance required, or cannot return to work.

The tool lets employees print out a letter with that status that they can hand to their bosses. Jvion is also working on an update to the tool that would notify an employer of that status directly. But thats all that will ever be shared with an employer, said John Showalter, a physician who serves as Jvions chief product officer.

The employers that weve talked to are very much concerned with their employee privacy, Showalter said. They dont want the answers that we have from our surveys, and we dont want to give them the answers from the surveys.

Over the last few years, podcasts have transformed from relativity niche to mainstream.

Spotify just bought the rights to one of the most popular, The Joe Rogan Experience, for a rumored $100 million. Across the industry, estimates show podcast revenue is expected to hit $1 billion by 2021. Theres big money to be had in podcasting.

Its like a second golden age of radio, but unlike in the good old days, there are all kinds of specialty and genre podcasts to choose from. Tap or click here to listen to Kims podcasts, Consumer Tech Update and Komando on Demand.

If youve got a bright idea and the drive to jump into podcasting, you need to gather the right equipment. Well show you some essential, and beginner-friendly, options. Ready to go live?

You cant start recording a podcast without a computer to engineer the whole thing. Computers can run the software used to mix your audio, as well as control the various pieces of equipment you use to capture your voice. An old laptop probably just wont cut it.

You dont need a super high-powered machine for audio recording, but sufficient memory will help all your software and equipment run faster. The Acer Aspire 5comes standard with 4GB of RAM and a solid-state hard drive, which has faster read speeds than ordinary spinning discs.

Arguably the most important item in a podcasters arsenal, a good microphone comes with features that prevent it from picking up excess noise and static from the air.

This AT2020 microphone from Audio Technica is among the most popular mics for podcasting and features a unique honeycombed shell that prevents excess feedback.

Yeti is another popular mic producer. Its Snowball USB microphones are a solid option, and the higher-end models are a great upgrade.

Have you ever watched a movie where the music and sound effects drowned out the dialogue? It can make a film downright unwatchable, and the same goes for audio-only mediums.

High-quality podcasts have consistent audio, with different voices and sound at similar levels. Its jarring for the listener if, during an interview-style podcast, one voice is very loud and the other too quiet to hear.

If youre talking with someone else, its smart to mute your microphone while they speak. The focus should be on the speaker, not your breathing.

This dual-channel audio interface from Scarlett allows for two microphones to be plugged in and features a range of enhancement features to make your voice sound silky smooth.

Once youve captured the audio you need, computer software will help you mix and edit it. You can use it to cut out bad takes, tighten up certain segments and remove awkward pauses or lapses in dialogue.

Ashampoo Music Studio 7 is an affordable and popular choice that includes all of the editing and mixing features you need for under $20. Its a steal!

Adobe Audition CCis another popular option. It will run you $20.99 a month or you can save a few bucks on an annual subscription. Its great for audio recording, mixing, and restoration on Windows and Mac OS.

Avid Pro Toolsis another subscription-based editor. The standard version is $29.99 a month, with the pro version coming in at $79.99 a month. Theres a free streamlined version you can try, too.

Speaking of free, Audacity is free, open-source audio software. Its a great option if youre just getting started and dont have extra cash to spend on software.

You might laugh at how this fluffy microphone windscreen from Movo looks, but the design serves an essential purpose. The fuzzy covering helps to muffle audio feedback, as well as prevent popping, static and airborne sounds from interfering with your recordings.

It might sound counterintuitive, but over-the-ear headphones are necessary equipment for any podcast producer. Theyre used to block out other noises you dont want to hear and will help you focus on the sound of your own voice (or your co-host or guests). Comfortable headphones like these ones from OneOdio will do the job perfectly and are compatible with all 35mm ports.

If youre looking for something a little higher-end, these headphones from Sony are a favorite of audio pros. They have a 9.8-foot coiled cord, so you wont have to worry about moving around your studio and feature a 40-millimeter driver unit for clean, clear sound reproduction.

In addition to headphones, youll also need an amplifier. This allows you to change the volume that youre hearing coming out of your device without affecting the volume of your other equipment. This four-channel headphone amplifier from Neewer makes it easy to have up to four headphones plugged in, with independent settings for each.

It should come as no surprise, but you cant record a decent podcast without a place to set your microphone down.

These microphone stands come in two different shapes: A tripod, which lets you stand the mic on the ground and adjust it to your level, and a clamp, which lets you clip the microphone to your desk or workstation.

Whichever mic stand you choose, try to buy something that fits your existing setup. It wont be any good if you have a crowded desk and nowhere to clip your microphone. Happy recording!
