Gazza divorces Stella (Artois) and only drinks cans of 7Up
TROUBLED football legend Paul Gascoigne is back on the drink... only this time he is addicted to 7Up.
The star reckons he is winning his battle with the bottle.
And he joked: "7Up is my favourite new drink.
"I've divorced Stella (Artois). I am happy. I am back to myself."
The former Newcastle and Spurs player, 48, admits he has his rough days when he does fall off the wagon.
He says: "Me and drinking don't go together.
"Me and drinking don't go together"Paul Gascoigne
"I don't go on massive binges. I pay the consequences if I do.
"If I have a bad day I get through it and if I have a good day I make the most of it.
"Sometimes I have to be careful which shops I go into but like I say I am an alcoholic."
Gazza opens up about his boozing on The Clare Balding Show this week and admits things got so bad he ate wine gums thinking they could get him drunk and thought he had killed a pair of toy parrots as he believed they were real.
He tells her: "I was that bad."
Gazza, who attended the TV recording with his family including his niece Lauren and went out to dinner in London afterwards, also has no time for today's "overpaid footballers" who do not respect their fans.
He says: "I don't like watching players who don't give 110%.
"I know a lot of them are on £100,000 or £200,000 a week.
"Good luck to them but show something for it, you know?
"I don't like it when a player scores a goal and walks back and does not celebrate with the fans who have turned up in the p***ing rain."
Last night the exfootie star was set to attend the screening of a new documentary about his life called Gascoigne.
He let slip he used to get paranoid hearing about "the Gaza Strip" on the news as he feared it was another negative news story about him.
The star said: "I hate Saturday nights, because jack s*** knows what's coming in the papers on Sunday.
"I tell you what was the worst one, the Gaza Strip. That was murder for me.
"I'd be sitting there having a shave and that, and the news would come on 'And the Gazza...' and I'd be like 'What's that?' and I realised it was the Gaza Strip."
The Clare Balding Show airs Thursday on BT Sport 1 at 8pm and also on Friday on BBC2 at 10pm.

For those of you that might not know, Conner Prairie is a living history museum located in Fishers, IN (just minutes from Indianapolis). They began a program several years ago that is based on the role Indiana played on the Underground Railroad – Follow the North Star.
Each visitor takes on the role of a runaway slave and encounters a slave sale along with a wide range of people that may or may not help you on your way to freedom. This is one of the most dramatic, interactive programs I have ever been a part of.
They only do the program during special times of the year and it is happening this month. Be sure to check out more information on their site. The cost is $19 and is definitely worth it.

Israeli troops shot and injured a Palestinian man in the northern Gaza Strip [2] on Sunday, locals and an army spokeswoman said.The man was collecting small stones used to make concrete on the outskirts of Beit Hanoun near Erez crossing when Israeli forces opened fire at him, locals said.He was taken to Kamal Udwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya for treatment.Many Gazans collect pebbles in order to make concrete as the Israeli economic blockade [3] has prevented the import of civilian construction material, including concrete, since 2007.An Israeli army spokeswoman said there were "a few suspects in the area" near Erez crossing who were "tampering with the ground."The Palestinians were in a "buffer zone" area forbidden to Palestinians [4], she said.After using "riot dispersal means" to no avail, Israeli soldiers fired at the Palestinians' lower extremities, "identifying a hit."Asked if the Palestinians were threatening the soldiers in any way, the spokeswoman said: "The threat is trying to enter Israel."She added that there was also the concern of explosive devices being planted in the area.Israeli forces frequently shoot at farmers and other civilians inside the Gaza Strip if they approach large swathes of land near the border that the Israeli military has deemed off-limits to Palestinians.The "security buffer zone" extends between 500 meters and 1500 meters into the Strip [5], effectively turning local farms into no-go zones.According to UNOCHA, 17 percent of Gaza's total land area and 35 percent of its agricultural land were within the buffer zone as of 2010, directly affecting the lives and livelihoods of more than 100,000 Gazans.The Gaza Strip has been under a severe economic blockade [6] imposed by the State of Israel since 2006.The blockade has severely limited the imports and exports of the Gaza Strip and has led to frequent humanitarian crises and hardship for Gazans.

I realized a few trips ago that I tend to have a food "theme" to each trip to New Orleans. Since I'll be arriving on a Monday later this month, it seems natural for red beans and rice to be the featured food.
With that in mind, where are the best plates of red beans and rice to be found? My personal tastes run more toward neighborhood eateries. I'll be staying in the upper Quarter but without a car, so places in the Quarter or within easy walking distance of the streetcar lines are ideal.

I also bought the Eris over a blackberry, because of the android marketplace and how its open source. It has way more apps than a blackberry would. The last reason I decided to purchase the Eris was the price. It was only $79.99 when I purchased mine and that is a hell of a deal on a smart phone. Those are my reasons on buying the Eris, but why did you buy it?

How to Choose a Sandbox
April 24, 2017 | Leave a Comment
Grab a shovel and start digging through the details
By Mathias Wilder, Area Director and General Manager/EMEA Central, Zscaler
Businesses have become painfully aware that conventional approaches — virus signature scanning and URL filtering — are no longer sufficient in the fight against cyberthreats. This is in part because malware is constantly changing, generating new signatures with a frequency that far outpaces the updates of signature detection systems. In addition, malware today tends to be targeted to specific sectors, companies, or even individual members of a management team, and such targeted attacks are difficult to spot. It has become necessary to use state-of-the-art technology based on behavioral analysis, also known as the sandbox. This blog examines how a sandbox can increase security and it looks at what to consider when choosing a sandbox solution.
The sandbox as a playground against malware
Zero-day ransomware and new malware strains are spreading at a frightening pace. Due to the dynamic nature of the attacks, it is no longer possible to develop a signature for each new variant. In addition, signatures tend to be available only after malware has reached a critical mass — in other words, after an outbreak has occurred. As malware changes its face all the time, the code is likely to change before a new signature for any given type of malware can be developed, and the game starts from scratch. How can we protect ourselves against such polymorphous threats?
There is another trend that should influence your decision about the level of protection you need: malware targeted at individuals. It is designed to work covertly, making smart use of social engineering mechanisms that are difficult to identify as fake. It only take a moment for a targeted attack to drop the harmful payload — and the amount of time between system infection and access to information is getting shorter all the time.
What is needed is a quick remedy that does not rely on signatures alone. To detect today's amorphous, malicious code, complex behavioural analysis is necessary, which in turn requires new security systems. The purpose of a sandbox is to analyse suspicious files in a protected environment before they can reach the user. The sandbox provides a safe space, where the code can be run without doing any harm to the user's system.
The right choice to improve security
Today's market appears crowded with providers offering various solutions. Some of them include virtualization technology (where an attack is triggered through what appears to be virtual system) or a simulated hardware solution (where the malware is offered a PC), through to solutions in which the entire network is mapped in the sandbox. However, malware developers have been hard at work, too, and a well-coded package can recognize whether a person is sitting in front of the PC, it can detect if it's in a virtual environment in which case it can alter its behavior, and it can undermine the sandboxing measures by delaying activation of the malicious code after infection. So, what should companies look for when they want to enhance their security posture through behavioral analysis?
What to look for in a sandbox
- The solution should cover all users and their devices, regardless of their location. Buyers should check whether mobile users are also covered by a solution.
- The solution should work inline and not in a TAP mode. This is the only way one can identify threats and block them directly without having to create new rules through third-party devices such as firewalls.
- First-file sandboxing is crucial to prevent an initial infection without an existing detection pattern.
- It should include a patient-zero identification capability to detect an infection affecting a single user.
- Smart malware often hides behind SSL traffic, so a sandbox solution should be able to examine SSL traffic. With this capability, it is also important to look at performance, because SSL scanning drains a system's resources. With respect to traditional appliances, a multitude of new hardware is often required to enable SSL scanning — up to eight times more hardware, depending on the manufacturer.
- In the case of a cloud sandbox, it should comply with relevant laws and regulations, such as the Federal Data Protection Act in Germany. It is important to ensure that the sandboxing is done within the EU, ideally in Germany. The strict German data protection regulations also benefit customers from other EU countries.
- A sandbox is not a universal remedy, so it should, as an intelligent solution, be able to work with other security modules. For example, it is important to be able to stop the outbound traffic to a command-and-control (C&C) centre in the case of an infection. In turn, it should be possible to turn off the infected computer by tracing back the C&C communication.
Putting it all together
All these criteria can be covered by an efficient and highly integrated security platform, rather than individual hardware components ("point" appliances). One advantage of such a model is that you get almost instantly correlated logs from across the security modules on the platform without any manual interaction. If a sandbox is part of the platform, the interplay of various protection technologies through the automated correlation of data ensures faster and significantly higher protection. This is because it is no longer necessary to feed the SIEM system manually with logs from different manufacturers.
Platform models do not lose any information as they allow all security tools — such as proxy, URL filters, antivirus, APT protection, and other technologies — to communicate with one another. It eliminates the time-consuming evaluation of alerts, as the platform blocks unwanted data extraction automatically. A cloud-based sandbox together with a security platform is, therefore, an effective solution. It complements an existing security solution by adding behavioral analysis components to detect previously unknown malware and strengthens the overall security posture — without increasing operating costs.
Self-Driving Information Security
April 21, 2017 | Leave a Comment
By Jim Reavis, Co-founder and CEO, Cloud Security Alliance
The prospects of autonomous self-driving vehicles becoming a pervasive presence on our roadways seems more likely everyday. From the big automakers to Tesla to Google to Uber, a wide range of companies are investing a tremendous amount of money to create a world without carbon-based drivers. The motivation for a big payday abounds, but the hope is that this will be a huge boon to vehicle safety, and I believe it ultimately will be. As we have learned at hacker conferences, there are a lot of security concerns about self-driving cars that we need to solve, but that is not what I want to talk about here.
What I would like to do here is steal the term from the automotive industry and apply "Self Driving" to Information Security. What is Self-Driving Information Security? For me, this is an initiative to apply the ever growing power of computing to solve complex and fast changing information security problems dynamically and without human intervention. Do I believe we can eliminate humans from the information security industry? No, I don't believe that is possible or desirable, and it certainly would make BlackHat a lot less fun. However, I think we need to rapidly take steps to push the envelope on where we can take the person out of the loop, simply because we are not going to have enough humans to go around and insert into every potential security problem space. In a world where we will soon have thousands of Internet connected devices for every person on Earth, it's highly unlikely we will have enough information security professionals to go around to solve all of the resultant problems.
Automation is a very old idea that is present in every industry. In information technology, we seek to automate every repetitive task we can. But like in other industries, the explosion in compute power is causing us to explore automating ever more sophisticated tasks. It is no longer just assembly line robots, but advances in computing are taking on white collar jobs and in many cases doing a great job. Computers are diagnosing diseases more accurately than doctors. Computers are doing journalism and even taking on the legal profession.
Are you a skeptic in regards to computer encroachment on sophisticated and complex professions? One of the most seminal moments in computing history that impacted me was the chess contest between Garry Kasparov and IBM Deep Blue. Personally, I was rooting for the human until the bitter end. When Deep Blue ultimately defeated the world's greatest chessmaster, I was in mourning for days. That was 20 years ago.
To be clear, Self-Driving Information Security will not be bereft of humans. Humans are the biggest part of information security today by any measure – clearly by the budgetary metric. I think we will continue to grow the overall number of people employed in the profession for the foreseeable future. The unpredictability of information security and its adversarial, logic-defying nature will require humans. But Self-Driving Information Security will gobble up the jobs we are doing today, and I am not quite sure what jobs we will be doing in the future. What I do know is, if we do not implement Self-Driving Information Security, we are going to drown in information and incidents.
What are some of the building blocks of Self-Driving Information Security? It is actually many things we are working on today, they just need to gain maturity:
DevSecOps. This idea of merging DevOps with Security Operations, enabled by cloud, is gaining in popularity with very diverse security teams. The ability to tear down and instantiate new computing systems, using "serverless" capabilities and applying some imagination is leading to automation of security process that can seem like magic to an old security guy like me.
Autonomics. The ability for computers be self-managing, self-healing, self-optimizing – self-EVERYTHING is important. A big part of how the Internet works today is through some levels of hierarchy and "command and control" systems. Clearly this model is going to break. I think about the apartment of the future with thousands of computers. Then I think about the bad guy that attacks the upstream link or servers. Or perhaps malware is injected into one of the apartment's devices. In both cases, the nodes must not only be resilient and independent, but may need to collaborate and attack the infected device.
Blockchain. The distributed, immutable ledger technology that underpins Bitcoin is a favorite of VCs and the finance industry. I believe we are going to find a lot of applications for Bitcoin in information security. An authoritative, tamper-proof log of transactions which can be either public or private has fascinating implications. We can record any change in a very granular manner. I think about IT audit and having a record of all security control implementations, it can really change how that job is done.
Analytics. Data Science. The answers are in the data. If the data sets are large enough, if the quality is good enough and if the algorithms are well designed and speedy, we will find the security answers we are looking for. I believe our massive and inexpensive compute infrastructure is going to excel in finding the right answer to a new security problem
Artificial Intelligence. AI is certainly controversial, even trying to define it can cause fights. Many are terrified by AI and its potential threat to mankind. Some security solutions claim to use AI, others say that the current products are really employing machine learning. Closely related to analytics, having access to quality data is going to enable AI to make security decisions and take action before a human can blink.
In addition to all of these areas of focus, it is safe to assume that computing is going to get faster, cheaper and bigger at an ever-increasing pace. Quantum computing may be years away, but there are already serious efforts in government and industry to make a massive leap in computational speed. It's also safe to assume that the bad guys will want to harness or exploit all of these trends for themselves.
The building blocks above will soon be assembled together into Self-Driving Information Security. It will be quite necessary for this to happen to manage our rapidly increasing compute universe. The jobs we know today will go away. I am convinced new jobs will replace them in greater numbers, but it may be messy. The paradox of automation is that humans will operate in a world with more layers of complex technical abstraction. We aren't as intimately involved, but when we are needed, it is for more critical reasons.
At Cloud Security Alliance, we think it is important to be considering these trends now to be true to our mantra of "solving tomorrow's problems today". That's why we have research in all of these areas happening in 2017. As always, our research is your research and we encourage you to join us.
There May Be a Shark Circling Your Data
April 17, 2017 | Leave a Comment
By Jacob Serpa, Product Marketing Manager, Bitglass
In today's business environment, cybersecurity remains a topic of great importance. As more companies migrate to the cloud, security concerns continue to evolve. While BYOD (bring your own device) affords employees more flexibility as they work from a multitude of devices, it also exposes data to nefarious parties in new ways. In the face of increasingly sophisticated cyber attacks, companies must learn and adapt or suffer the consequences.
In its latest cybersecurity report, "Threats Below the Surface," Bitglass discusses the results of its survey of over 3,000 IT professionals. With the help of the CyberEdge Group and the Information Security Community, Bitglass was able to uncover the threats, priorities, and capabilities seen as most relevant by these professionals. The fact that the last year has seen 87% of organizations become victims of cyber attacks (and that a third of those organizations were hacked over five times) lends credence to cybersecurity concerns.
Despite the importance of maintaining visibility into data usage, relatively few firms are doing it well. While over 60% of companies monitor their desktops, laptops, and networks for security threats, the percentage drops to 36% for mobile devices and 24% for SaaS and IaaS applications. As organizations (inevitably) adopt BYOD and public cloud apps for increased productivity, they should proactively monitor for the corresponding security risks. However, when the survey respondents were asked about their firms' current security postures, they indicated that they were primarily concerned about vulnerability with respect to mobile devices. Other prominent concerns included malware, privacy, and data leakage.
While most companies plan to increase their security budgets for next year, they should already be taking steps to ensure cybersecurity systems that consider contemporary tools like the cloud and BYOD. In particular, firms should be utilizing end-to-end solutions that secure data on devices, in transit, and at-rest in the cloud, while addressing concerns about topics like privacy.
More and more, conscientious companies are turning to CASBs (Cloud Access Security Brokers) and UEBA (user and entity behavior analytics) for modern-day cybersecurity. CASBs allow for discovering shadow IT apps, ensuring regulatory compliance in the cloud, preventing unwanted data disclosures, and more. With UEBA, a core component of CASBs, enterprises can detect account hijacking, data exfiltration, and other threats. CASBs and UEBA give companies a great deal of visibility and control over their data – a huge help in keeping an eye on the threats below the surface.
The Cure for Infectious Malware

Organizations have seen rapid growth in cloud adoption over the last few years which in turn have introduced new threats and increased the risk of data leakage. Among the most prominent threats are malware and ransomware – long a problem on endpoints. With the advent of public cloud apps, interconnected and widely used, malware and ransomware have the potential to touch more data than ever before.
Unfortunately, despite the risk to data in the cloud, few providers offer any malware protection whatsoever. Those that do offer limited signature-based threat protection, based on solutions from IPS/IDS vendors, can only identify known threats. The most dangerous threats are not these known pieces of malware, but the unknown, zero-day threats that can go undetected, resulting in weeks or months of data exfiltration unbeknownst to IT.
Some solutions offer threat protection that is reactive rather than proactive, and what little proactive protection they provide is ineffective when end-users need instant access to data in the cloud or expect instant upload of a file. This gets at a critical difference between traditional signature-based malware and next-generation AI-based malware. Traditional tools rely on dynamic analysis, executing a file in a sandbox before taking action. Next-generation tools from companies like Cylance leverage static analysis, basing a risk decision on hundreds of characteristics associated with a file.
Once malware makes its way into a cloud app, there's little an organization can do to stop its spread. These malicious files are often downloaded to endpoints, make their way to connected apps, and are shared across the organization. The only way to protect against these threats is to prevent their spread.
With Advanced Threat Protection (ATP), a core component of any complete Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) solution, organizations can protect the cloud from malware before it hits the app, assess the risk of any one file, and stop malicious attacks in their tracks.
Why You Need a CASB for GDPR Compliance
April 4, 2017 | Leave a Comment
By Rich Campagna, Senior Vice President/Products & Marketing, Bitglass
With enforcement of the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is just over a year away in May, 2018, your planning efforts should already be well underway. Adoption of cloud applications across the EU continues at a rapid clip, and the global nature of leading cloud applications means that protecting personal data and achieving data residency can be difficult to achieve.
With mandatory breach notifications and very steep fines (4% of annual revenues), the cost of non-compliance is high. On the other hand, it's nearly impossible to stop the move to cloud in most organizations, so that's not an option either. Fortunately, you still have time to arm your organization with the key to combining cloud adoption and GDPR compliance: cloud access security broker (CASB). Let's take a look at some of the areas where a CASB can help:
- Identifying personal data – the EU GDPR is primarily concerned with the protection of any data that can be used to identify a person (name, address, email, driver's license number, and much, much more). The first thing that you need to do in order to protect that data is to identify where it is. CASBs can scan across both data-in-transit and data-at-rest for a wide range of cloud-delivered apps (SaaS, IaaS, and custom applications). Any CASB you choose should have a library of pre-built identifiers that can be used to scan for names, phone numbers, addresses, national identity and driver's license numbers, health record information, bank account numbers, and more.
- Controlling the flow of personal data – Once you've identified where sensitive data resides, you want to control where it can go. CASBs include a range of policy options that allow you to do things like geofence personal information, control access from unmanaged/unprotected devices, control external sharing, and encrypt data upon download. All of these options can help mitigate the risk of non-compliance.
- Maintaining data residency and sovereignty – Major cloud applications often have global architectures which makes it difficult, it not impossible, to keep data within a given country or region. Fortunately, the GDPR allows for the use of encryption to meet GDPR requirements, if the cloud provider transfers data outside of the EU. Seek out a CASB that offers the killer app for GDPR – full-strength cloud encryption – across both unstructured (file) and structured (field) data.
- Word of caution: some cloud application vendors offer their own "built-in" or "platform" encryption. With these schemes, the cloud provider has access to the keys and, therefore, the data as well. This is a GDPR gray area and may leave you, the data controller, on the hook for those hefty fines and mandatory notifications.
- Monitor Risky Activity – A CASB can give you visibility into everything that's happening with your users and your data across protected cloud applications. User Behavior Analytics and alerting capabilities let you know when risky activity is happening. This might mean reporting on indicators of breach, credential compromise, personal data access from outside the EU, or more. This critical visibility will allow you to identify and stop activities that might otherwise leave you staring down a fine of 4% of revenues (and a corresponding loss of your job).
- Identify Shadow IT – simply put, GDPR and Shadow IT are a volatile and risky mix. There's simply no feasible way to get the controls and visibility needed over applications that your organization has no ability to control. A CASB can give you much needed visibility into Shadow IT applications, and their corresponding risk, but your only option when faced with GDPR is get out of the shadows – either sanction and protect shadow IT through a CASB, or block unsanctioned apps altogether.
These CASB controls can really jumpstart a successful GDPR program across your organization, leaving you free to consider some of the many other GDPR-related controls and policies you'll need to put in place over the next 12 months, including appointing a Data Protection Officer, figuring out how to implement "right to be forgotten," and reevaluating licensing terms and data ownership across your many cloud application vendors.
CASB Is Eating the IDaaS Market
March 31, 2017 | Leave a Comment
By Rich Campagna, Senior Vice President/Products & Marketing, Bitglass
In the past 6-9 months, I've noticed a trend amongst Bitglass customers where more and more of them are opting to use the identity capabilities built into our Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) in lieu of a dedicated Identity as a Service (IDaaS) product. As CASB identity functionality has evolved, there is less need for a separate, standalone product in this space and we are seeing the beginnings of CASBs eating the IDaaS market.
A few years back, Bitglass' initial identity capabilities consisted solely of our SAML proxy, which ensures that even if a user goes direct to a cloud application from an unmanaged device and on a public network, they are transparently redirected into Bitglass' proxies – without agents!
From there, customer demand lead us to build Active Directory synchronization capability for group and user management, authentication directly against AD, and native multifactor authentication. Next came SCIM support and the ability to provide SSO not only for sanctioned/protected cloud applications, but any application.
So what's left? If you look at Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Identity and Access Management as a Service, Worldwide*, Greg Kreizmann and Neil Wynne break IDaaS capabilities into three categories:
- Identity Governance and Administration – "At a minimum, the vendor's service is able to automate synchronization (adds, changes and deletions) of identities held by the service or obtained from customers' identity repositories to target applications and other repositories. The vendor also must provide a way for customers' administrators to manage identities directly through an IDaaS administrative interface, and allow users to reset their passwords. In addition, vendors may offer deeper functionality, such as supporting identity life cycle processes, automated provisioning of accounts among heterogeneous systems, access requests (including self-service), and governance over user access to critical systems via workflows for policy enforcement, as well as for access certification processes. Additional capabilities may include role management and access certification."
- Access – "Access includes user authentication, single sign-on (SSO) and authorization enforcement. At a minimum, the vendor provides authentication and SSO to target applications using web proxies and federation standards. Vendors also may offer ways to vault and replay passwords to get to SSO when federation standards are not supported by the applications. Most vendors offer additional authentication methods — their own or through integration with third-party authentication products."
- Identity log monitoring and reporting – "The vendor logs IGA and access events, makes the log data available to customers for their own analysis, and provides customers with a reporting capability to answer the questions, 'Who has been granted access to which target systems and when?' and 'Who has accessed those target systems and when?'"
Check, check, and check! Not only do leading CASBs offer these capabilities as part of their cloud data protection suites, in some cases, they go quite a bit farther. Take logging and reporting for example. An IDaaS product sees login and logout events, but nothing that happens during the session. CASBs can log and report on every single transaction – login, logout and everything in between.
Another example is multifactor authentication. Whereas an IDaaS can trigger MFA at the beginning of a session due to a suspicious context, a CASB can trigger MFA at any time – such as mid-session if a user starts to exhibit risk behaviors.
Since these capabilities have evolved as part of CASBs, which offer comprehensive data protection capabilities for cloud applications, I expect that 2017 will be a year with a lot more enterprises considering CASB platforms for both cloud identity and cloud data protection.

Brexit or Bust: What Does It Mean for Data?
March 23, 2017 | Leave a Comment
By Nic Scott, Managing Director/UK, Code 42
What's the latest on Brexit? When the UK government triggers Article 50, it will signal the start of the official two-year countdown until the UK leaves the European Union. According to UK Prime Minister Theresa May, this is still on track to happen at some point in March.
While there are still many unknowns in regards to geopolitical policies and legislation that will be created, annulled, or abolished post-Brexit, the UK government has given away one handy hint when it comes to the now-infamous General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Post-Brexit, the UK will be mirroring data protection regulations to that which exists in Europe.
This means that from May 2018, when the UK is still an EU member, the GDPR will be applicable to UK businesses. And, even when the UK exits the EU in 2019, an identical version of the GDPR will also be enforced.
Needless to say, this isn't good news for UK organizations that have been burying their heads in the sand, hoping that this pesky EU legislation will just go away post-Brexit. Unfortunately, these rules aren't going anywhere. It's time for companies to wake up to the consequence of data negligence regarding the GDPR. This isn't just infosecurity providers scaremongering for sales, and it's not a 'potential' occurrence like the Y2K bug, this is actually happening.
Get your ducks in a row, or get fined
Should a sensitive data breach occur under the GDPR, the European Data Protection Board (or likely the Information Commissioner's Office, post-Brexit) will evaluate whether the affected company has been negligent in its data protection operations and the level of compensation a company must pay affected parties—which can reach €20m or a fine of up to four percent of its global turnover. Not a pretty thought for the C-suite, which by nature is tasked with mitigating risk.
Concerningly, according to Code42's 2016 Datastrophe Study, in which over 400 UK IT decision makers (ITDMs) were surveyed, 50 percent of them acknowledged that the security measures they have in place currently will not be enough to meet GDPR standards.
How to become compliant
The first step is for an organization to know what kind of data falls under GDPR protection, where it is stored, and for how long it should be kept. Moreover, what is the best way to secure it, to what extent that data should be backed up, and how to prevent any leaks from the inside of the company. Simple, right?
The implementation of the right endpoint security stack is vital—one that takes into consideration first-line defense, such as intrusion detection systems and antivirus solutions, right down to last line defense, to easily remediate and recover should a breach occur. The right solution is an important advantage given the number of people and devices accessing potentially sensitive corporate information.
Also, enterprises should create internal policies that promote accessibility and flexibility with approved solutions, without locking the enterprise down to the point of stifling productivity. Employees play a big role regarding the sanctity of corporate information. That is why it is vital to train and educate your staff about possible intrusions, how they can secure data themselves, and how to avoid being tricked into leaking sensitive information.
Taking these precautions will allow an organization to gain control of its own information and ensure that the CIO's overall focus is on increasing profit and expanding technological reach, rather than worrying about the safety of the zeroes and ones.
Odds Are in Quantum Encryption's Favor
March 22, 2017 | Leave a Comment
By Jane Melia, Vice President of Strategic Business Development , QuintessenceLabs and Co-chair, CSA Quantum-safe Security Working Group
No kinds of organizations have tighter security than the average casino. After all, the house always wins, and it wants to keep those winnings. A recent Wired article, however, explains how a team of Russian hackers managed to beat a lot of casinos worldwide. They did so by exploiting inherent flaws in the pseudo-random number generators (PRNG) that are integral parts of randomizing every spin of a slot machine. Even if you don't care about wealthy casino bosses losing money, you still need to be concerned about the drawbacks to using PRNGs because slots aren't the only things that are vulnerable. Most of the world's encryption is also based on pseudo-random numbers.
What's in a Name?
Before going into detail about how the heists were carried out, let's talk about PRNGs and why pseudo should be a no-no for slot machines and, more importantly, cybersecurity. As the prefix "pseudo" indicates, the numbers generated are not truly random. PRNGs are programs that start with a base number known as a seed. The seed gets tumbled together with other inputs such as another algorithm and a random-ish physical component such as the timing of the strokes on a user's keyboard. Both humans and computers are really bad at random so if someone is able to measure the pattern of your keystrokes and/or break one of the algorithms used, they can reverse engineer the other inputs and predict the next numbers in the "random" sequence. Find the pattern, break the code and the jackpot (or encrypted data) is yours.
One- and Two-Armed Bandits
In the case of the Russian casino swindlers, they were given a head start by Vladamir Putin who had gambling outlawed in 2009. This meant a lot of slot machines were available on the cheap. Take apart a few machines, figure out how the PRNGs work and you're nearly there. Since the inputs for slot machine PRNGs change based on the time of day, the hackers, in this case, had to do more work on-site at the casinos. The leg man would set himself up in front of a machine and video a dozen or more spins using his smartphone. The video would be streamed live to his compatriots in St. Petersburg who would analyze the video and use what they knew about the machine's innards to predict its pattern. Then they would send a list of timing markers that caused the phone to vibrate a split-second before a winning combination comes up, signaling casino guy to hit the spin button. It didn't work every time but it was a whole lot more effective than chance – somewhere around $250K per week more effective.
To make things worse, not only did the engineered cheat allow a shadowy St. Petersburg group to snatch millions of dollars, the problem they exploited is a fundamental part of PRNGs so casinos are still vulnerable to this kind of fraud. That brings us back to cybersecurity issues. As shown in the casino example, it takes a lot of work to figure out the patterns produced by a PRNG. Most hackers don't have two dozen guys with a supercomputer in St. Petersburg to help. Soon, however, they will all have something better – at least if your goal is to defeat the PRNGs and break an encryption.
The Future is Yesterday
Any data that needs to be kept secret and safe over time is already at risk of being breached. Quantum computers exponentially more powerful than those we use today are already being developed. Current predictions are that quantum computers will be fully realized in the next five to ten years, but it could be even less than that. No PRNG will be able to stand up to the brute force of quantum computers. All too soon, only a true random number generator (RNG) will do.
The only way to generate true random numbers is by using the natural world (i.e. something not made by humans). Quantum encryption, for instance, uses the fully entropic (or completely random) nature of the quantum world to generate true random numbers that are the basis for the strongest possible encryption keys. Quantum key generation is designed to take on the coming quantum computing storm and keep medical records, tax returns, classified government documents, corporate secrets (and anything else that needs to stay under wraps after 2020 safe). Bet on it.
Observations on CSA Summit at RSA – Part 1
March 15, 2017 | Leave a Comment
By Katie Lewin, Federal Director, Cloud Security Alliance
CSA Summit at RSA was a day-long session on Securing the Converged Cloud organized around presentations and panels from leading vendors such as Centrify, Veracode, Microsoft, and Netskope, as well as a talk on "Effective Cybersecurity" by Ret. Gen. Keith Alexander and a fireside chat with Robert Herjavec of "Shark Tank" fame. (Session recordings from the CSA Summit are now available.)
Several themes emerged over the course of the day of presentations, panels and fireside chats:
- The cloud is still the most secure environment for data and acceptance of cloud as a secure environment for data storage is at the tipping point of acceptance by most IT users. In one survey cited, half of the respondents said that the cloud was more secure than on-premises.
- Identity continues to be important – the message of many of the speakers is that there are too many passwords and too many special privileges.
- Emphasis should be placed on data protection rather than device protection. Security is moving to Modern Data Controls – from device and identity security to data protection and controls. Rights management and data classification are the key indicators in data control.
- Security must move to a process that authenticates first and then connects as opposed to the current emphasis on connect and then authenticate.
Presentation slides will be available on the CSA web site.
Many speakers asserted that today's security is not secure. Evidence of this includes breaches at Yahoo, USG Office of Personnel Management, 2016 Presidential election. Network perimeters are fading with cloud use, mobile devices, IoT devices and the mobile work force. Therefore, security in the age of access must focus on passwords.
Too many passwords and privileged users require a paradigm shift to identity management.
There is evidence that focusing on identity reduces the number of beaches. Businesses must take steps to implement identity management, including:
- Establish Identity assurance across the IT environment;
- Consolidate identities through single sign-on and then layer on multi-factor identification;
- Limit lateral movement – move to automated provisioning – identify who is still on staff and what they can access;
- Move to approval workflow for access requests; and
- Audit privilege access.
Speakers emphasized that transition to the cloud can be revolutionary rather than evolutionary. There were several real-life examples of a revolutionary transition. One large company wanted to eliminate its Intranet and rely solely on the Internet. The benefits of this approach included single sign-on, reduced complexity, establishment of standards, improved security and cost efficiency. In addition, the company did not have to secure and maintain network devices on its premises. In order to effect this transition, the company determined that they needed to concentrate on securing their data assets and not their appliances. The approach they took was to establish a strict policy-based access structure combined with micro-segmentation. This approach was successful. The Internet gives users access similar to private transactions; eliminates choke points of routing all transaction to a single data center. They were also able to optimize data center traffic using a hybrid cloud approach.
One of the highlights of the day was a speech from Ret. Gen. Keith Alexander on "Strategy of Effective Cybersecurity." He began by outlining some of the current trends in cyber world:
- Technology is rapidly changing, and data available is increasing exponentially; but this information becomes outdated in 2 -3 year horizon.
- Advanced technology is playing a more important role in our lives – for example IBM's Watson is now working on formulating chemo for brain cancer patients.
- Moving to the cloud is good – resulting in better security and cost savings especially for small and mid-size businesses.
However, there are threats that must be addressed in this environment. Cyber skills are now part of a nation's power in the world. There are many examples of this, including cyber attacks from nation states aimed at other states. These attacks are evolving from disruptive to destructive.
What is the path forward to meet these threats? Entities must share meta data on attacks and intrusion attempts to have the information to formulate defensive strategies. There should also be Software as Service defensive tools on the cloud available for entities to share. These tools and strategies can be developed and implemented while also protecting civil liberties and privacy.

Preparing for the Quantum Future: Setting Global Security Standards to Make Us Quantum-Safe
March 13, 2017 | Leave a Comment
By Frank Guanco, Quantum-Safe Security Working Group, Cloud Security Alliance
Recently there has been an increase in the perceived threat of the quantum computer to modern cryptographic standards in widespread use. During the last year, security agencies such as the United States Government National Security Agency (NSA) and the United Kingdom's Communications Electronics Security Group (CESG) have called for a move to a set of quantum-safe cryptographic standards. The consensus is that today's cyber security solutions needs to be retooled sooner rather than later, and the transition to quantum-safe security must begin now. The arrival date for a practical quantum computer is still up for debate, however, most experts believe we will see a quantum computer capable of breaking current public key cryptosystems within five to 15 years.
Recently the Quantum-Safe Security Working Group from the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA), released its 'Applied Quantum-Safe Security' paper, designed to provide individuals in the security industry and related fields with applicable knowledge regarding the quantum computer and its influence on cyber security. The white paper discusses how cryptographic tools must be adapted to fit specific types of data and serves as a call-to-arms for the available protection options for when the quantum computer arrives.
Digital and physical security
Computer security has primarily focused on digital security methods, however, physical security of data is also critical. Algorithms provide authentication and encryption for online communications and security of a cryptographic scheme is based on mathematics and resilience against large computing power to ensure digital security. Consider this physical security example – security breaches impacting governments and large organizations are often linked to insiders, capable of physical access not afforded the outside world. This breach occurs despite the fact that digital avenues may have been closed and intensive security protocols employed. Cryptographic keys are not only abstract random strings, but also real physical objects that should be stored in secured physical appliances. To be more quantum-safe, new tools must include all physical and mathematical security systems, each with its own practical application domain.
Impact of Cloud Computing
The ongoing move toward the cloud for all our IT needs greatly increases the reliance on data networks. Data is stored in huge data centers, and transferred between them at ever-increasing rates. The cloud model—with its associated storage and network requirements—enables a stronger and more reliable IT infrastructure. This heavily networked model also opens some serious new post-quantum threat vectors, with the most serious being a "data-vaulting" or harvesting attack where an attacker stores communications between the client and the cloud so that data can be decrypted in the future when general purpose quantum computers are available. What we need to keep top of mind is that data stored today may already be compromised by future quantum computers, especially if the data is being monitored and stored.
Data "at rest" in enormous cloud data centers is also at risk since quantum computers will effectively reduce the keys protecting that data to half of their original strength. Additionally, post-quantum attack vectors will compromise the key management systems that generate, distribute and protect the keys needed to secure that data. Any connections and links between these large data centers must have the highest levels of protection possible. The need for quantum-safe cybersecurity is greatly compounded in a cloud-based IT environment.
As we move towards a world of quantum computers, organizations need to take the knowledge outlined in the 'Applied Quantum-Safe Security' paper and assess their own quantum-safe needs. Not every organization will require the same security measures and it takes time to change an infrastructure. The best way to prepare is to follow what is going on with the development of the quantum computer and its security solutions.
Since the cloud relies heavily on secure communications, quantum safety is a critical issue for the CSA. Enterprises will only use cloud services if they believe that their data is safe, both in the cloud provider servers and in transit. Quantum-safe security is a true requirement for further expansion of the cloud. The CSA encourages industry leaders to start thinking and talking about quantum safety. Quantum-related technology is evolving very quickly every day, both on the attack side and the defend side. Organizations should think about adopting some low-risk solutions now to improve infrastructure.
Cyber security technology never has and never will be a 'one size fits all'. There is no one universal solution that would provide the perfect security against all possible threats. What we have learned, however, is that we must prepare ourselves for emerging technology, especially when we know it's coming. The key to quantum computer protection is the use of adaptable cryptographic tools. These tools must be tailored to fit specific types of data and specific applications.

Pennsylvania's House is just too big, according to Pennsylvania's House.
The body voted on Tuesday to slim down by slashing a fourth of its membership — from 203 members to 153 — while also approving a separate measure that would shrink the Senate from 50 to 38. The constitutional amendments would have to pass the state Senate and get voter approval, but the House votes move them a step closer to becoming a reality. Downsizing the House was approved in a 148 to 50 vote, while two members switched from nos to yeses on the vote to shrink the Senate.
If approved, Pennsylvania wouldn't be the only state to change its legislative size in recent memory, but it would be close. Just five states — Idaho, New York, North Dakota, Rhode Island and Wyoming — have changed their legislative size since 1990, according to the bipartisan National Conference of State Legislatures. And only one of those was a meaningful shift, the organization's Morgan Cullen and Karl Kurtz wrote in a 2011 blog post.
"Since the early 1980s, the only state that made a significant change in the size of their house chambers is Rhode Island. The Ocean State reduced its membership from 100 to 75 in 2004," they wrote.
A change to the size of Pennsylvania's legislature would mean each state House member would represent 83,000 people, up from 62,500, according to The Patriot News. The shift would make Pennsylvania the state with the 10th largest House districts, by constituent representation, according to 2010 NCSL data. Pennsylvania is currently 18th.
State legislature sizes vary a lot. Nebraska is home to just 49 state legislators, while New Hampshire is home to 424. House lawmakers in California represent slightly more than 465,000 constituents, while those in New Jersey are next with nearly 220,000. In California and Texas, state senators represent more constituents than does any member of the federal House of Representatives.
House members in New Hampshire and Vermont represent the fewest constituents of any state. The average number of constituents per district in Vermont is 4,172, while in New Hampshire it is just under 3,300.

Newbie Intro
Hi everyone, I'm the new kid here! I am a 32 year old female- just discharged today from the hospitalafter experiencing two slight strokes. The first was a week ago (Feb. 23) and the second episode was Feb. 28. In both episodes I lost my ability to speak clearly although I could understand what others said to me. The first time it was very short-lived and because I didn't know what it was I just ignored it and improved rather quickly.
When it occurred for the second time I went to the ER right away. I was also experiencing numbness on the right side of the face and weakness of my arms. It lasted about an hour.
My neuro admitted me into the hosp for 3 1/2 days and performed many tests including EEG, ECG, EKG, MRI w/ contrast, and lots and lots of blood tests. The affected area can be seen as a small white blob in my left brain near the language area. No cause was found in all the testing.
I think I have recovered my abilities quite well but am tired and a little scared. I am a mother to four small children and this was so unexpected.
I guess I am not really asking anything, just searching for others who understand what happened to me. :) I hope this place will be a good spot for me to learn. Thanks!
Re: Newbie Intro
Hi Dayuhan,
And welcome to the stroke survivor forum. You are so young to have that happen. But it happens to lots of people that are ones you would never expect. Just like you. So first I want to ask you to not worry if you can. I know it is hard, but have friends here that understand how you feel.
Your post is very interesting to me because you are the first one that mirrors my stroke. Strokes are all so different, but yours was just like mine. Because your stroke happened on your left brain mine did to. So you said they say a white blob, Mine was a black blob. So the point that you are writing already is a very good since. Basically our left brain is cognitive and our right are phyisical. for some reason most people have a stroke on the right brain. So it is obvious to you friends to see if you can't walk or something, you had a stroke. But a stroke only on the left brain left us with no thoughts. So when you are walking fine, people don't understand that you did have a stroke. I have had friends "get over it" and it is most hurtful words I have heard, but I can't even respond, because when I get upset I can't even speak. But know understands and they can't. So I don't even go out much. But i am not telling you to do that. What I am saying is that your are young and it seems like your stroke was not too bad and you can recovery. Don't listen to negativity. Believe in yourself and I know you will get better. A stroke recovery is a long process, but you learn a lot along the way. Patience, compassion, understanding and lots of love.
God Bless you my friend,
Tim :)
Re: Newbie Intro
Hello and welcome to our family
I am so sorry to hear about your strokes. I had my stroke June 2010 and its been a slow but steady recovery. After my MRI they found out I had another stroke that had gone undetected.My stroke in June involved my right side giving me drop foot hip pain hand tremor and removed my math skills, ability to multitask have migranes and sensativity to light and sound. Now many of these symptoms have improved over the months and I still continue to improve. The math skills and multitasking are the only two I would say have not improved.
It is good you went to emerg. I was 24 hours before I went and I should have been in there sooner.
You say they have not found a reason for your stroke so please continue to insist in good care and further investigating. You are very very young to have suffered two strokes you must find the reason to prevent further strokes. I insisted on a second opinion and it was the best thing I did. Please let us know how you are making out. God Bless Mulchie
Re: Newbie Intro
Hello Dayuhan
How are you making out?
God Bless Mulchie
Re: Newbie Intro
Hi Mulchie and Tim,
Thanks so much for your replies. I'm doing great. It seems that the only thing that has changed for me since the stroke is that I get tired more easily so I've moved my bedtime up an hour. There are really no residual physical effects. Occasionally I have to search a little harder to come up with a word but my husband says he doesn't notice any delay when I am speaking. My motor skills are normal now.
I count myself very blessed and am so thankful to God for my recovery. Of course at first I was quite distressed and anxious that it would happen again. My mind has settled down now and I'm working on modifying my diet and exercise and have cut out some significant stressors in my life which has really made a difference in my overall mindset.
Thank you so much for checking in. I hope you both are doing well and finding joy in each day.
Dayuhan :)
Re: Newbie Intro
Hi guys, I just wanted to post an update to anyone who is interested. I know it is always nice to hear "the end of the story" so I hope that this might be helpful for someone.
When I experienced the episodes I described earlier on this thread I was living in Manila, Philippines and was treated by a good team of medical professionals there. They ran every test they could and cautiously labelled what I had experienced as a stroke.
When I returned to Canada this fall I went to another specialist for a second opinion. After a repeat MRI, a wide range of blood tests, and carefully reviewing the results of my tests in Feb. he and another doctor have both determined that it was not a stroke after all, but a basilar-type migraine which is commonly mistaken as a stroke.
Migraines sometimes have a phase called an aura that appears before the headache or can sometimes appear without a headache at all. In my case, the aura was the numbness and tingling in my face, arm and leg, and the inability to speak. This isn't a very common type of migraine but it does exist and since my diagnosis I've heard of several people who have suffered from these.
I actually don't have a history of migraines, so it wasn't really on my radar as a diagnosis and apparently pointed the doctors in the Philippines away from that diagnosis as well.
Re: Newbie Intro
This is interesting information, thank you for sharing it.
What I am wondering is whether you have had any permanent damage and whether preventative medication may be helpful. Appreciate your input.
Re: Newbie Intro
From what I gathered from your post the migrane simulated a stroke but it was not a stroke there for no damage done is that correct? If thats correct then a celebration is in order right!!!!
I sure hope so.
God Bless Mulchie

Point West Credit Union
uses Smarsh Web Archiving
for Compliance Peace of Mind
Point West Credit Union
The third-oldest credit union in Oregon, Point West is a not-for-profit, member-owned financial institution. Its 80-year history of People Helping People is borne from a long heritage within its credit union community.
Point West is a federally insured organization and is regulated by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) and the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC). The non-profit needed a solution to reproduce any given page from its corporate website on any given day over a three-year period, as mandated by these regulatory bodies.
While historically relying on manual spreadsheets to track website changes, which was inefficient and often inaccurate, Point West found that Smarsh offered a better solution through its Web Archiving tool.
"The work we would have to go through in a case where someone asked us to produce something that we couldn't produce would be astronomical," said Steve Pagenstecher, VP of Member Experience at Point West. "Knowing that the data is there with Smarsh, and we don't have to worry about it is just priceless."
Point West now saves time and enjoys peace of mind knowing they can respond to any requests from governing bodies in a timely, efficient manner.
"Knowing we are in compliance, and it's not requiring me to do anything on a daily basis – but when I need it, it's there. That's what we really, truly need, and where Smarsh delivers," said Pagenstecher.
"We may be small, but we have the same expectations as credit unions 10x, 100x our size, all the way up to large national banks. We have to meet those same requirements."

This isn't a very exciting week in my knitting and reading life, everything is just trotting along nicely enough.
I'm up to the toe of my Rachel Coopey Ook socks. They've been a really fun, satisfying knit. I'm still listening to Terry Pratchett's Feet of Clay, because I always listen to Discworld audiobooks while knitting Discworld themed socks.
I'm reading Dark Currents the second book in the Emperor's Edge. It's fine. A fun, forgettable read. I wasn't sure after I finished the first one if the series is worth continuing, and I'm still not sure.
And that's what I've been up to this week. Pop over to Ginny's blog to see what the rest of the yarnalong are knitting and reading this week.

Enrich Your Muscle Program With Testosterone
Picture your body as a vehicle. Without the proper fuel, oil and care for the engine, it isn't going to run well. Oftentimes, it might have trouble starting, or accelerating, or performing over long periods of time. This becomes truer with each passing year as the automobile ages. In many ways, your body is no different. Without the testosterone enhancement from Testo Extreme Plus, your system doesn't have what it needs to excel. If you make efforts to keep your car running smoothly over the long haul, then why wouldn't you do the same for your body?
For men, testosterone is the vital resource that drives physical activity and strength. When you don't have ample levels of this critical hormone, your body lacks the ability to perform at peak capacity. This is not only true in the gym, but in all aspects of life. Interpersonal relationships, work productivity and also leisure all benefit from the vigor rousing effects of Testo Extreme Plus. Unlike other testosterone supplements, this one delivers its positive impact without adverse reactions or harmful risks. It is natural, safe, and – above all – effective. Read on to learn more about Testo Extreme Plus.
Boosting Workouts With Testo Extreme Plus
Without testosterone support, workouts lag, especially as we get older. The strength we once had to push forward and dominate reps begins to disappear. Meanwhile, our endurance declines and we start hitting that infamous wall much earlier. Recovery also suffers as a result of this bodily change. Not only do muscles rebuild more slowly, but the feelings of fatigue and lethargy can stretch on almost indefinitely. Testo Extreme Plus is the number one method to combat these effects and push your body back to its prime function. There isn't a testosterone product that gets more recommendations from pro fitness trainers than this one.
With the help of Testo Extreme Plus supplements, your workout regimen gains a critical edge. By restoring free testosterone levels, your body has the fuel it needs to conquer the toughest weights. As we all know, the key to fast growth is the ability to push and reach new heights. For so many men, this becomes increasingly difficult, but Testo Extreme Plus gets you back on track. This supplement delivers more stamina for strength training sessions, and — of equal importance — sharply cuts down the recovery window. This means you'll have more energy after working out, and you'll be able to get back into the gym more rapidly.
Testo Extreme Plus Supplement Advantages
- Achieve Peak Free Testosterone Levels
- More Energy, Stamina and Strength for Workouts
- Greater Focus and Concentration Throughout the Day
- Shorter Recovery From Lifting For Rapid Growth
- Natural Ingredients for Natural Support
The Additional Testo Extreme Plus Edge
Here's another thing you might know about testosterone: higher levels means better sex. This isn't any kind of voodoo magic claim, it's simply the truth. This hormone is vital to a man's libido and sexual performance. The endurance edge gained for workouts also applies to the bedroom. Men who take Testo Extreme Plus typically experience greater stamina as well as superior sex drive and erection quality.
Be A Man With Testo Extreme Plus Edge
Testo Extreme Plus provides men with a way to enhance their vitality and also their masculinity. For acute workout benefits, you can also add a bottle of Alpha Extreme Plus with its unique muscle formula. In combination, these two supplements give men everything they need to dominate.

Jidenna Serves Up Some Sophistication In 'Classic Man' For The Consumption Of The Hip Hop Community (VIDEO)
Although called 'Classic Man', Jidenna's look takes you further back in time than what you may consider typical classic for a hip hop artist. Certainly not the classic look of a b-boy or a story teller from the streets, but instead a rather older Harlem renaissance classic where men wore side hair parts, wingtip shoes and club-coller shirts.
But of course he is the protegé of Grammy nominated Janelle Monae who wore tuxedos for the longest and when badgered by a male fans to dress sexier she replied "Sit down I'm not for male consumption".
Just as Janelle Monae bucked the trend, choosing not to sell her sexuality but develop her fan base organically and strictly off her music. In the same organic mold of Janelle Monae, Jidenna bucks the trend not to wear athletic gear with gold chains and face tattoos.
The Result: A Vintage Harlem renaissance gentleman who is refreshing in a hip hop culture that is in dire need of an image makeover.
The lead single off of Wondaland Records' upcoming compilation EP "The Eephus" and featuring labelmate Roman GianArthur, 'Classic Man' and Jidenna serves up some sophistication for the consumption of the hip hop community.

Revealed: How many tourists visited Northern Ireland this year?
More tourists than ever before are expected to flock to Northern Ireland by the end of the year.
Tourism Ireland said 2016 was set to be the best year ever for overseas visitors, with almost 2.1 million expected to fly or sail into the region.
The number is up by 6% compared to last year, when around 1.98 million overseas visitors made the trip here.
It also marks the sixth year in a row that Northern Ireland has welcomed its highest number of overseas tourists.
The average holidaymaker's spend is additionally on the rise. It is expected that by the end of this year, tourists will have spent more than £527m - 9% more than the previous 12 months.
Earlier this month, Tourism Ireland launched its marketing plans for the year ahead with a target to welcome 2.15 million visitors to the region in 2017 - 500,000 extra people.
The aim to raise tourist numbers even further next year comes despite United Airlines' decision to scrap its route from Belfast to Newark in the US.
The huge blow will see the province lose its only transatlantic flight by the end of January.
However, Tourism Ireland said North America remained a priority market, adding that 75% of tourists to Northern Ireland come to the region through the Republic.
The cross-border body has used attractions such as Northern Ireland's Year of Food and Drink, Titanic Belfast, the Causeway Coastal Route, Game of Thrones and the Dark Hedges to boost numbers.
Tourism Ireland estimated that its Game of Thrones strategy reached approximately 61 million people.
Chief executive Niall Gibbons claimed that the region would begin next year "in a position of strength".
Mr Gibbons added that major sporting events would help the body further push tourism in Northern Ireland.
He explained: "We will continue our successful partnership with HBO (Game of Thrones maker) to highlight Northern Ireland - through the exciting events of Game of Thrones - on the global stage.
"And Tourism Ireland will also leverage the tourism benefits of major sporting events, including the Irish Open at Portstewart Golf Club in July, and the semi-finals and final of the Women's Rugby World Cup, which will take place in Belfast in August next year."

South Africa coach Heyneke Meyer still hurting despite third-place finish
Heyneke Meyer has admitted he will always blame himself for South Africa not winning the 2015 World Cup.
The Springboks boss insists South Africa's class of 2019 will be well-placed for glory, but accepted he may never fully get over his personal semi-final heartbreak.
South Africa powered past Argentina 24-13 to secure a third-place World Cup finish, with Meyer in reflective mood given his future remains up in the air.
The Springboks squad have backed Meyer's candidacy to continue, but the 48-year-old could yet move into a youth development role.
"Part of me still feels we were good enough to be there tomorrow in the final," said Meyer, still looking back to the 20-18 loss to New Zealand.
"We were so close. I'll always look back and think 'what could I have done better to get the medal'.
"We've been so close, I think this team can be invincible going forward.
"We've got some of the best youngsters in the world.
"In four years, and even another year they will be a different team.
"I really hope we can keep them together.
"A lot of these guys will be heroes going forward, heroes for their country and superstars in the game.
"If you start to aim for third place and start jumping up and down about that, then you shouldn't be coach of South Africa.
"In saying that we are extremely proud of what we've done."
Meyer revealed he withdrew Bryan Habana in the late stages of the second half due to the winger suffering cramp.
Habana botched four chances to break Jonah Lomu's all-time World Cup try record of 15 against the Pumas.
At 32 the Toulon wing is unlikely to have another chance at the record in the Japan 2019 tournament.
"I just felt that Bryan was cramping, so it wasn't my call," said Meyer of Habana's substitution.
"Most of the backs were cramping, so it was tough decisions.
"Bryan came off because he couldn't play any further.
"Also every single guy deserved to get on the field."
Meyer branded contesting the third-place play-off "like kissing your sister" after semi-final defeat to the All Blacks.
The former Blue Bulls coach admitted he had slight regrets over the comment after South Africa's victory over Argentina.
"I felt bad afterwards, I didn't mean it as such," said Meyer.
"But you feel if your heart's been ripped out.
"At that moment you only feel about losing the chance to be world champions.
"Maybe it came out wrong, but I'm just so proud we could come back and win this game."
Victor Matfield turned back time for a vintage showing in his 127th and final Test at the age of 38, before insisting Habana's chances of breaking Lomu's try record are not over.
"Oh, four years, maybe Bryan can make it," said Matfield.
"If I can play to 38 he can probably play another four years.
"Bryan's an outstanding player, scoring the most tries to equal Jonah Lomu is fantastic.
"Probably tonight I think he just wanted it too much.
"There were so many opportunities and he was so close."
Meyer then hailed evergreen lock Matfield as South Africa's greatest-ever player, and for transforming Test-match lineout play.
"He's one of the greatest ever to play the game," said Meyer.
"I don't think there's a lot of people who could take that chance to come back.
"Some people talk about dreams, others make them come true.
"It was a special moment for me that he ended this game as captain, and I was involved.
"He's probably the best lineout jumper of all time.
"He helped the whole world and was way ahead of his time.
"It shows the character of the man to come back.
"He took the chance, played another two years, and has been excellent tonight.
"He looks stubborn but is actually a shy guy.
"He will go down as probably the best player ever to play for South Africa."

Grant intrigued by global games
Avram Grant sees no reason why Premier League games could not be played in other countries.
By Chris Burton
Last Updated: 08/02/08 5:34pm
Avram Grant feels that Premier League games could be played around the world as long as the concept is well organised.
The news that the governing body of England's top-flight is looking into the prospect of having an 'international round' of fixtures implemented by the 2010/11 season has been greeted with mixed reactions across the country.
Despite acknowledging the obvious problems which could arise from having to travel halfway across the globe to play a single match, Chelsea boss Grant is one of those prepared to back the proposals as long as extra care is taken with the planning.
"I think it is an interesting idea," he said.
"Everybody likes the Premier League, including many places in the world. I need to think about this. It is interesting.
"On one hand I think the Premier League has to be played in England but on the other so many people around the world like it.
"I can see why people are concerned but many people are happy about it too. I am a big fan of the NBA and they decided to play in Europe. That had positive and not so positive signs.
"One part of this is the travelling but I don't have a clear answer about this. I have not spoken to (chief executive) Peter Kenyon about it but I am sure I will.
"I am sure if the Premier League decide to play these games, they will fix it so that it is not a big problem and they will think about it. It will not be easy. We have to think in the long-term whether it will be good or not."
Lampard return
Grant is currently preparing his troops for a crunch showdown with Liverpool on Sunday and looks likely to be able to call on the services of Frank Lampard for the first time since the 4-4 draw with Aston Villa on Boxing Day.
However, Didier Drogba, Salomon Kalou and Michael Essien will be unavailable for the Stamford Bridge clash as they are due to take part in the Africa Cup of Nations third/fourth play-off match between Ivory Coast and Ghana on Saturday.
"I would be more than happy if we could get them for this game but I cannot fight with something I cannot win. I think they have to stay," Grant said on his African trio.
"Frank trained today (Friday) and yesterday, he is better. He will be available for the weekend. It is good news."
