Cato's 5 Gbps SASE Speed Record is Good News for Multicloud and Hybrid Cloud Deployments

In the original Top Gun movie, Tom Cruise famously declared the words, “I feel the need! The need for speed!” At Cato Networks, we also feel the need for speed, and while we’re not breaking the sound barrier at 30,000 feet, we did just break the SASE speed barrier (again!).

SASE and CASB Functions: A Dynamic Duo for Cloud Security

Cloud adoption has exploded in recent years. Nearly all companies are using cloud solutions, and the vast majority having deployments spanning the platforms of multiple cloud service providers. These complex cloud infrastructures can create significant usability and security challenges for an organization. If security settings are misconfigured, an organization’s cloud infrastructure, services and applications could be potentially vulnerable to exploitation.

MITRE ATT&CK and How to Apply It to Your Organization

MITRE ATT&CK is a popular knowledge base that categorizes the Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs) used by adversaries in cyberattacks. Created by nonprofit organization MITRE, MITRE ATT&CK equips security professionals with valuable insights to comprehend, detect, and counter cyber threats. In this blog post, we dive into the framework, explore different use cases for using it and discuss cross-community collaboration.

Enhancing Security and Asset Management with AI/ML in Cato Networks' SASE Product

We just introduced what we believe is a unique application of real-time, deep learning (DL) algorithms to network prevention. The announcement is hardly our foray into artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). The technologies have long played a pivotal role in augmenting Cato’s SASE security and networking capabilities, enabling advanced threat prevention and efficient asset management. Let’s take a closer look.

Exploiting ancient vulnerabilities: How did the 3CX supply chain attack occur and what can we learn from it?

On March 29th, North-Korean linked threat-actors targeted 3CX, a VoIP IPX developer, exploiting a 10-year-old vulnerability (CVE-2013-3900) that made executables appear to be legitimately signed by Microsoft when, in fact, they were being used to distribute malware. The 3CX attack is just the latest in a series of high-profile supply chain attacks over the past year. The SolarWinds attack compromised the Orion system, affecting thousands of organizations, and the Kaseya VSA attack that was used to deliver REvil ransomware also to thousands of organizations and is considered one of the largest security breaches of the 21st century.

How to Use the MITRE Framework to Protect Your Organization

In a recent poll we conducted, two thirds of respondents shared they were unaware of the MITRE ATT&CK Framework or were only beginning to understand what it can provide. When used correctly, MITRE ATT&CK can significantly help organizations bolster their security posture. In this blog post, we explain how security teams can leverage MITRE ATT&CK and how Cato Networks’ SASE can help.

IoT has an identity problem. Here's how to solve it

Successfully Identifying operating systems in organizations has become a crucial part of network security and asset management products. With this information, IT and security departments can gain greater visibility and control over their network. When a software agent is installed on a host, this task becomes trivial. However, several OS types, mainly for embedded and IoT devices, are unmanaged or aren’t suitable to run an agent.

5 Best Practices for Implementing Secure and Effective SD-WAN

Corporate networks are rapidly becoming more complex and distributed. With the growth of cloud computing, remote work, mobile and Internet of Things (IoT), companies have users and IT assets everywhere, requiring connectivity. Software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) provides the ability to implement a secure, high-performance corporate WAN on top of existing networks. However, SD-WAN infrastructures must be carefully designed and implemented to provide full value to the organization.

Digital Transformation Is a Major Driver of Network Transformation

Many organizations are in the midst of rapid digital transformation. In the past few years, numerous new and promising technologies have emerged and matured, promising significant benefits. For example, many organizations are rapidly adopting cloud computing, and the growing maturity of Internet of Things (IoT) devices has the potential to unlock new operational efficiencies.
