What is the NIST Framework? An Introduction and a Look at Its Five Core Functions

The National Institute of Standards and Technology is an agency within the U.S. Department of Justice. It was founded in 1901 to support science and technological development. For decades, it has provided guidance on computer security. In 2014, in cooperation with public and private sector experts, the NIST released its cybersecurity framework. The framework combines best practices and industry standards to help organizations deal with cybersecurity risks.

What is the Difference Between Cyber Resilience and Cybersecurity?

Cyber attacks and data breaches are top of mind for businesses around the world as attacks on vulnerable networks persist. It is now more important than ever to ensure cybersecurity and resilience. But how do these two practices differ? This blog highlights the differences between cybersecurity and cyber resilience and how to secure your business for optimal cyber protection.

How Risk Intelligence Impacts Cyber Readiness

While your security staff tends to work the same business hours as everyone else, it often feels like threat actors never take a day off. Because an attack can and will come from any direction at any time, an organization’s cyber readiness is paramount. Your cyber readiness is the level at which you’re able to identify and respond to an attack.

Improving Clinical Operations Efficiency through Network Analytics

In any organization and in largely any industry, most network analytics are driven by IT. Healthcare providers are no exception. The insights extracted via network analytics offer serious opportunities for operational improvements and added value across departments. There are also significant ancillary benefits from a more cyber-aware and “plugged in” organizational posture — including improved information sharing, collaboration, and security.

Democratizing Data Using a DataFabric & How it Benefits IT Enterprises

Enterprises today want real-time business insights to make decisions that improve operational efficiency and customer engagement and present newer revenue opportunities. However, the promise of the data-driven business falls short due to gaps in data management. These gaps exist because data in the modern enterprise doesn’t exist only behind firewalls and within organizational premises.

Stories from the SOC - Detecting internal reconnaissance

Internal Reconnaissance, step one of the Cyber Kill Chain, is the process of collecting internal information about a target network to identify vulnerabilities that can potentially be exploited. Threat actors use the information gained from this activity to decide the most effective way to compromise the target network. Vulnerable services can be exploited by threat actors and potentially lead to a network breach. A network breach puts the company in the hands of cybercriminals.

Secure software development lifecycle (SDLC) Best Practices

With all the remote works, online businesses, and digital lifestyle, applications (software) have become an integral part of our lives. In contrast, the growing rate of data breaches and cyber-attacks exploiting minor glitches in application functionality has diverted attention to application security which is still underrated in the era of phenomenal technological advancement.

What is Cache Poisoning?

Network security is of the utmost importance when it comes to protecting servers. An organization's servers contains a lot of sensitive data (e.g., clients’ personal data) that can greatly harm your business in the blink of an eye if compromised. One of the most common yet often undetectable ways the security of your servers can be compromised is cache poisoning. It is crucial to be aware of what cache poisoning is, how it works, why it is so dangerous, and how you can prevent becoming a victim.

Celebrating one year of Rapid Scan Static

As we celebrate the first anniversary of Rapid Scan Static, we look back at the growth of our new SAST engine. In June 2021, Synopsys officially released Rapid Scan Static, a feature of Code Sight™ SE and Coverity® by Synopsys and powered by the Sigma scan engine. Rapid Scan Static reduces the noise and friction for developers by providing fast results that enable them to take action earlier in the software development life cycle (SDLC).
