Chen calls for new way of thinking in light of AI revolution and the critical need for greater visibility into risk across growing attack surfaces

SINGAPORE, Oct. 15, 2024  /PRNewswire/ — Global cybersecurity leader Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704) announced that its CEO and Co-Founder, Eva Chen, will call for a much-needed rebalance in the cybersecurity industry at the GovWare Conference and Exhibition 2024 in Singapore. This comes as a new study by the company reveals how devices, accounts, and cloud assets are most at risk in Southeast Asia and globally, underscoring the critical need for network defenders to gain greater visibility into risk across their attack surface.

Trend Micro’s latest Cyber Risk Report found that unauthorised access to high-risk cloud applications emerged as the top risky event in Southeast Asia in the first half of 2024, as organisations across the region increase their reliance on cloud services and look to seize opportunities in advanced technologies like artificial intelligence (AI). The study examined risk across various assets with telemetry data from the Trend Vision One™ platform to determine where risks are greatest within organisations.

Old and inactive accounts, as well as sensitive data being sent outside the network, were identified as other frequently occurring risk events across the region. As such, the report found that Southeast Asia had the second-highest average risk among regions after the Americas, with an average risk rating of 43.2. Telecommunications, agriculture, and education were the top three industries in the region with the highest average risk score.

As the longest-serving cybersecurity executive in the industry, Eva will take the stage at the GovWare Conference and Exhibition 2024—Asia’s premier cybersecurity platform—to unpack how the industry needs to change to balance technology risk and resilience in the AI era. Leveraging insights gleaned from thousands of enterprise customers, she will also share how shifting towards a more risk-based approach to cybersecurity is a critical step in realigning security goals with business goals, improving organisations’ cybersecurity posture while supporting innovation and business continuity.

Eva Chen, CEO at Trend Micro: “We’re at a pivotal moment where cybersecurity must evolve beyond just defending against threats. As organisations race to embrace AI and other transformative technologies, they face a dual challenge—protecting against increasingly sophisticated attacks while enabling innovation and growth. The future of our industry hinges on our ability to balance these priorities. Organisations must proactively manage their cyber risks, starting with building comprehensive visibility and understanding of their attack surfaces. This will ensure organisations can innovate confidently while maintaining their resilience in this rapidly evolving digital landscape.”

During her keynote at the GovWare Conference and Exhibition 2024, Eva will delve into:

The importance of developing a blend of proactive and reactive strategies to help security teams anticipate and predict risk and threat activity with accuracy across the attack surfaceHow integrating security operations and detection excellence with business continuity planning will be table stakes moving forward.Why breaking down data siloes, enhancing business intelligence, and accelerating individuals within the enterprise requires a new layer of sophisticated security strategies to protect this era of AI-driven operations.

Join Eva at the GovWare Conference and Exhibition 2024 on Wednesday, October 16 at 12:30pm for her keynote. Location: Level 4, Room GW1, Sands Expo and Convention Centre.

About Trend Micro’s 2024 Cyber Risk Report
Trend Micro’s 2024 Cyber Risk Report is based on telemetry data from Trend Micro’s Attack Surface Risk Management (ASRM) solution in its flagship cybersecurity platform, Trend Vision One, plus the native eXtended Detection and Response (XDR) tools. It’s divided into two sections: the user side covers risk in assets, processes, and vulnerabilities, while the adversary side maps adversary behaviours, MITRE, and TTPs. Global data points are based on telemetry from December 25, 2023, to June 30, 2024, while Southeast Asia data points are based on telemetry from January 1, 2024, to June 30, 2024.

Using a risk event catalogue, the Trend Vision One™ platform calculates a risk score for each asset type and an index for organizations by multiplying an asset’s attack, exposure, and security configuration by impact. An asset with low business impact and few privileges has a smaller attack surface, while higher-value assets with more privileges have a larger attack surface.

29,999,999,950 LTSC Transferred to Bluegrace Energy Bolivia Administrative Escrow Digital Wallet on Jan 10, 2025, at 05:46:24 AM UTC

Published

By

WILMINGTON, Del., Jan. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The underlying contract for billions of metric tonnes of voluntary market carbon offset was executed on Jan 1, 2025, and the transaction completed on Jan 10, 2025, marks a significant step forward in establishing LTSC as the foremost stablecoin digital currency facilitating seamless exchange between carbon offset providers and sellers.

Mr. Jean Bilala, Executive Chairman of Letscoin, stated that he is ready to proceed to the final step of the conversion of LTSC vs USDT. The contractual obligation and settlement of this placement will be done in parallel with the confirmation of the global carbon credit offset buyers.

When asked about the exit buyers’ confirmation and the market demand for this carbon credit offset, Dr. Thana Balan, the co-founder of LTSC, answered that the business is comprised of users that require carbon offsets. Given the global implementation of utilizing carbon credits to offset carbon footprints, this assists global businesses in achieving net zero emissions by 2050.

This process is ongoing, and it is a mandatory requirement that every industry producing a sizeable carbon footprint balances its carbon output with offsets. Industries such as airline operators, mining, oil & gas refining, and processing companies are all fully engaged. Any business that has a carbon footprint will need carbon credit offsets to operate in the very near future.

Regulations are already in place globally, which are implemented and followed. Letscoin is not alone in becoming the digital currency facilitator for this transaction. Associate, Kyoto Transformation Xchange (KTX), is developing a carbon credit tokenization system. This will include creating the system to identify measures and justify the value of the carbon footprint of all industries, land, agro facilities, reserve Amazon mapping, and more.

During their recent R&D technology meetings in Jakarta, Indonesia, and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, KTX introduced rocket science and AI drone facility owners to collaborate and execute their mission of being the associated partner of LTSC.

The achievement of LTSC being the digital exchange medium connecting the trade of carbon credit offsets between providers and the end buyer is an important move to the stability and sustainability of LTSC in the digital stablecoin race globally.

LTSC has structured the “payment gateway” algorithm, generated automatically, which will become a user-friendly online application that can be adopted by any level of basic digital competency. Dr. Thana’s team has the mission to implement plans to facilitate local exchange trading for goods and services that is easily accessible by using the complementary currency programs.

With the adoption of agriculture and forestry lands in Indonesia, Africa, and South America under the agro and carbon footprint mapping, significant milestones have been achieved.

When asked about the execution schedules, Dr. Thana said the execution will be divided into various sectors:

Preservation of carbon footprintTrading of carbon offsetDigitalization of carbon footprint and data management

“Our main focus will be completing the exit sales of the current contract with Bluegrace/LTSC/USDT for the 3 billion metric tonnes of carbon credit offsets. End buyers’ confirmation has been obtained for the tabletop meeting with Bluegrace, which has been requested for Jan 20, 2025, in Europe.”

LTSC believes this meeting will be a great achievement and herald the completion of all the contract commitments signed on Jan 1, 2025, to the executors and the global carbon exchange market.
