Today's Story Highlights

Security Economics: The Key to Resilience
There are times when looking at something narrowly can be more effective
than taking a wider and more comprehensive view. If you don't believe
me, consider the experience of looking at organisms in a microscope or
watching a bird through binoculars. Distractions are minimized, allowing
optimal evaluation and analysis of what's under investigation.

To Drive Change, Let Your Customers Be the Messengers
Before I was a parent, I was a youth leader. As individuals, teens had
unique personalities, skills and stories, but one thing that was
universal was the effect that parental communication had on them.
Whether it was a criticism, a suggestion, or merely a bit of helpful
information, the teens tended to look down on it, or even become hostile
toward the messenger.

Oracle's Nice Numbers
Significant Q4 wins and earnings numbers reflect the strength of
Oracle's resurgence as a cloud company. At its earnings call earlier
this week, CEO Mark Hurd mentioned some big names -- including Johnson &
Johnson, the Cleveland Clinic, Baylor University and AT&T -- that made
significant commitments to Oracle in the quarter. For FY2018, total
revenues were up 6 percent compared with fiscal 2017.

Breaking the Fraud Chain
Retailers' biggest worry is increasing e-commerce fraud -- including
data breaches, targeted attacks and card-not-present fraud -- according
to a report from the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. Online fraud
is one of the biggest challenges facing retailers, with CNP fraud being
one of their top worries. CNP fraud will hit $71 billion over the next
five years, Juniper Research has forecast.
