Kaspersky shares IT security recommendations for businesses in 2021

Kaspersky New Logo

25 January 2021

Remote work will catalyze a shift from the corporate perimeter concept to micro-office security certification. Outsourcing of IT and cybersecurity functions will be crucial to solve expertise shortages and save budgets. To coordinate managed service providers along with using multiple cloud services, cloud security and management skills will become a ‘must have’. These and other cybersecurity challenges and trends will be among those that businesses will have to manage this year, according to a new Kaspersky report.

A shift to remote work, financial constraints due to economic recession and the growth of cyberthreats due to the global pandemic will affect the day to day role of cybersecurity professionals in 2021. Understanding the challenges but also perceiving opportunities in IT and IT security management is key for companies to maintain their protection. The recent Kaspersky report, “Plugging the gaps: 2021 corporate IT security predictions” suggests advice for each role related to cybersecurity, including CEOs or business owners, CISOs, SOC team leads and IT managers. Here are some of the main trends to monitor:

  • Protecting the perimeter is no longer enough – home office assessment and certification will be needed. There should be tools to scan the level of security in a workplace – from the presence of software vulnerabilities to connecting to an unreliable or unprotected Wi-Fi hotspot. It will also require wider adoption of VPN, privileged access management, multifactor authentication systems, the implementation of stricter monitoring, and the updating of existing contingency and emergency plans.
  • Transition to a service model will enable required levels of IT and IT security with lower investments. According to Kaspersky’s survey, seven-in-10 (79%) businesses said they already plan to use a managed service provider (MSP) or managed security service provider (MSSP) in the next 12 months[1]. This is for good reason as the service model helps to minimize capital investments and transition business costs from CapEx to OpEx.
  • Training for internal IT security specialists should incorporate management skills. Cybersecurity professions split into very narrow specializations, meaning that hiring staff for each specific role may be too expensive. This is where outsourcing can help plug the gap. However, businesses that outsource key cybersecurity components still need to focus on developing management skills for their in-house teams to handle those outsourced functions.
  • There will be an increased reliance on cloud services, making dedicated management and protection measures necessary. The survey showed that in 2020, employees in 95% of enterprises and 94% of SMBs used non-corporate software and cloud services such as social networks, messengers or other applications. This is unlikely to change when staff return to the office. To ensure that any corporate data is kept under control, better visibility over cloud access will be necessary. IT security managers will need to align themselves with this cloud paradigm and develop skills for cloud management and protection.

Along with the introduction of new cybersecurity practices, the quality of tools that enable these changes will be equally important. Quality of protection and seamless manageability are key when choosing cybersecurity solutions. We have seen two important changes in what customers expect from corporate cybersecurity offerings. Firstly, the quality of protection is no longer up for discussion – now it’s a ‘must have’. Another major trend is that deep integration between various components of corporate security, ideally from a single vendor, now plays a bigger role. For instance, there was a long-held belief in the industry that various specialized solutions from various vendors can help create the best combination for protection. Now, organizations are looking for a more unified approach with maximum integration between different security technologies,” says Alexander Moiseev, Chief Business Officer at Kaspersky.

Debuting on The Audio Store are TRN’s four new wired IEMs – TRN VX, TRN V90s, TRN V90 and TRN ST1 that feature up to 7 drivers with hand-tuned crossovers.

TRN VX seven driver

TRN VX: Seven Driver (1DD+6BA) Wired IEM with Mic.

The TRN VX features a 6 BA (Balanced armature) + 1 DD (Dual-magnet Dynamic) Hybrid Driver setup. The 10mm is a specially chosen high-performance dual neodymium magnet dynamic driver that delivers tactile and texture bass. The 6 BA customized 3 x 30095 + 3 x 50060 high-frequency balanced armatures produce outstanding treble, presenting an airy, spacious, elegant and natural sound with superb treble extension. TRN VX is tuned by the internally renowned engineers with more than 10 years of experience in the audio industry.

The seven drivers are housed into a magnesium alloy shell delivering a resonance characteristic that’s carefully tuned to create the utmost audio fidelity with a midrange that is buttery-smooth and dynamic featuring a wide captivating soundstage. The TRN VX also sports light-weight ear hooks ergonomically designed to sit comfortably around the helix of the ears and an acoustic inner-structure carefully designed to minimize chamber acoustic resonance and driver flex.

Other specifications include an impedance of 22Ω, Sensitivity of 107dB/mW, Frequency Range of 7-40000Hz apart from a 3.5mm straight audio jack with a detachable 1.2m cable. The TRN VX is priced at Rs 6,490 carrying a 1-year Industry Standard Warranty and will be exclusively available on The Audio Store.

TRN V90 penta driver

TRN V90: Penta Driver (4BA+1DD) Wired IEM with Mic.

The V90 is TRN’s flagship IEM featuring four customized BA drivers (2x 30019 + 2 x 50060) and a 10mm DA offering a new level of the listening experience, unprecedented power and dynamics. It sports a large diamond-graphite diaphragm to achieve low distortion and bring out more details without sacrificing any other sound signature. Hand-tuned with handmade advanced crossover electronics, the V90 brings remarkably stereo separation and smooth phase response, leading to more dynamic realistic imaging and staging for both casual and studio use. The metal housing is made using a special process that requires 21 types of diamond router bits, operated by skilled craftsmen, making it tough but extremely lightweight to offer a supreme feeling. And the specially designed air vents on the metal housing greatly help regulate the airflow and pressure for easy driving with any device.

Other specifications include an impedance of 22Ω, Sensitivity of 110dB/mW, Frequency Range of 7-40000Hz apart from a 3.5mm stereo jack with a detachable 1.2m cable. The TRN V90 is priced at Rs 4,490 carrying a 1-year Industry Standard Warranty and will be exclusively available on The Audio Store.

TRN V90s six drivers

TRN V90s: Six Drivers (5BA+1DD) Wired IEM with Mic.

Based on the flagship V90, the V90s is equipped with a dual magnet high-flux dynamic driver bringing lower impedance and higher sensitivity, better drivability which leads to faster transient response and deep impactful bass. Also onboard are 3 x 50060 BA and 2 x 30019 BA drivers for clear airy highs, rich mid-tones and crisp vocals. The hybrid technology is a magnificent journey into a great sound improvement over its predecessor. It also features an electronic crossover carefully tuned with the combination of arts and science in mind to deliver an experience that evolves musical expression with the emotion of sound and tonal balance through engineering.

Lastly, avoiding traditional die-casting process, the V90s uses the costly 5-axis CNC machining to offer a much better fit, feel and finish – a process commonly used in aviation, military, medical instruments and high precision equipment manufacturing. The inner structure is optimized with air pressure relief technology to harmonize excessive pressure from your eardrums to give a truly balanced natural sound without unwanted resonance or distortion, for the purest attainable sound. The IEMs use a 4-core high purity 6N OCC detachable copper cable allowing sound to flow more freely and openly with a bigger sound stage, better note definition and less strident treble on treble intensive tracks.

Other specifications include an Impedance of 22Ω, Sensitivity of 108dB/mW, Frequency Range of 20-40000Hz apart from a 3.5mm stereo jack with a detachable 1.2m cable. The TRN V90s is priced at Rs 5,990 carrying a 1-year Industry Standard Warranty and will be exclusively available on The Audio Store.

TRN ST1 dual driver

TRN ST1: Dual Driver (1DD+1BA) Wired IEM with Mic.

The TRN ST1 features 10mm DD and 30095 BA combo driver setup that greatly improves high-frequency extension and clarity to a degree that will leave you amazed over the richness of instruments and natural details emerging from your music collection. Enjoy an impactful bass rumble and delicate treble with music performance that holds more substance and a very natural tone. The ST1 has a carefully tuned 2-way crossover technology and acoustic chamber that allows narrower pass-band of drivers making it possible to optimize and tailor them to the desired sonic capabilities.

Using an advanced PVD protective film-coating that is tough, resists corrosion, impact and abrasion, the ST1 deserves an equally striking appearance. Each ST1 is hand-brushed to a satin finish, ensuring a luxurious pearly-white shine and plush feeling that is both artistically and aesthetically pleasing. The airflow control helps equalize internal chamber pressure via a vent on the faceplate. The ST1 also sports a specially shaped front housing made in accordance with the contour of a human auricle for utmost stability, comfort and sound isolation.

Other specifications include an impedance of 22Ω, Sensitivity of 108dB/mW, Frequency Range of 1-40000Hz apart from a 3.5mm Glided Type-C jack with a detachable 1.2m cable. The TRN ST1 is priced at Rs 1,490 carrying a 1-year Industry Standard Warranty and will be exclusively available on The Audio Store.
