Kentucky county clerks to authenticate via Yubikey -- GCN

By GCN Staff
Apr 12, 2021
Kentucky is planning to equip all the commonwealth’s 120 county clerks with Yubikey devices to enable two-factor authentication that will better protect the state’s voter registration system from unauthorized access.
Users insert a Yubikey token into the USB ports on their laptops and touch its button to verify they are a local human user and not a remote hacker.
The Yubikeys will be made available thanks to a federal grant obtained via a joint partnership of the Kentucky Secretary of State, the mayor of Lexington, Ky., the Kentucky Office of Homeland Security and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. ....

Light Fantastic: Counting Single Photons at Unprecedented Rates

A voltage is applied across the semiconductor. When a photon hits the detector, its absorbed energy kicks an electron off an atom in the semiconductor – the same photoelectric effect that generates electricity in solar panels.
That loose electron is accelerated by the applied voltage and causes a sort of chain reaction in which large numbers of adjacent atoms release an “avalanche” of electrons just as a small added stress can prompt an entire mountainside of snow to collapse. That avalanche current is the output signal. Finally, the device is reset by quenching the current with a counter-voltage and restoring the initial applied voltage. Because the avalanche involves such a large number of electrons, getting the entire system back to a quiet state where it is ready to detect another photon is challenging. ....

Analyzing Ransomware & Potential Mitigation Strategies

Ransomware is one of today’s most pervasive and dangerous cyberthreats. The latest ransomware attacks can quickly spread throughout a company, impairing user productivity and disrupting business. Research firm Cybersecurity Ventures predicts that the annual global cost of ransomware to businesses will top $20 billion in 2021.
CyberArk Labs analyzes 100s of new ransomware samples each day. In this paper, the team shares its evaluation of more than 3 million samples to-date – including an examination of the path to encryption and mitigation strategies. Get full disclosure now. ....
