A joint security advisory by the national cybersecurity agencies of the United States, Canada, New Zealand, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom has identified the top 10 initial access vectors routinely exploited by threat actors to break into an organization.

TTP hunting is an intelligence-based type of cyber threat hunting that analyzes the latest TTP (Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures) used by hackers and cybercriminals. TTP threat hunters study the newest tools and technologies used by cybercriminals, learn how to detect new attack trends, and gather enough cyber threat intelligence so that companies can fully protect their attack surface.

Enterprises are shifting rapidly to the cloud in order to increase scalability, improve efficiency and lower their costs. In the process, every company has become a software company — constantly building and updating new software — while the cloud has radically transformed how software is built. Oftentimes, the modern cloud-native application will be made up of several (or hundreds of) microservices, while being hosted on dynamic scaling platforms like Kubernetes.

Cyber breaches are everywhere, people are working from anywhere, and data creation is exploding. As a result, businesses want solutions that make data collaboration and governance easier and more secure, and MSPs are at the forefront of this market opportunity. Those opportunities were on full display last week as more than 250 managed service providers, technologists, and Egnyte leaders met virtually—and in-person in London—for Egnyte’s annual MSP Summit.

American novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald famously wrote that “the test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.” All experienced security practitioners learn to master this mental trick.
