Authentication, authorization, and accounting, often called AAA or Triple-A, are sets of services and protocols that enable granular access control over computer networks. Before the popularity of mainstream HTTP-based authentication protocols such as OAuth and SAML, AAA protocols were the primary way to authenticate users or machines to network services.
Digital transformation has forever changed the way healthcare organizations deliver care. By pivoting to cloud based platforms, health systems can liberate data from silos and connect it in ways that enable them to gain insights, take action and collaborate across a patient’s care journey.
No one doubts the importance of cybersecurity in web development — and yet, often in the development cycle, we neglect to prioritize it across each sprint and into the final product. Making cybersecurity a priority throughout every development sprint cycle is necessary to combat the tide of digital attacks threatening the modern web. But how can you ensure your focus on cybersecurity throughout development?
One very predictable part of cybersecurity is that the work is unpredictable. here are routines that help to create a predictable rhythm, but you don’t necessarily know when the next attack will come, how intense it will be when it does, or when you will get to go back to a predictable and hopefully manageable rhythm again.
Observability (logs, traces, metrics) is a core tenet to building strong software systems. Logs are used to debug issues and check on system activity, traces provide valuable insights into system performance and architecture, and metrics allow engineering teams to closely track business metrics within their systems.
As businesses and health organizations seek to strengthen cybersecurity, they’re turning frequently to compliance frameworks to help prioritize, guide, and improve decision-making and implementation. Two of the more popular compliance frameworks are the NIST CSF and the ISO 27001. For IT teams seeking to better understand the difference between these frameworks, as well as which is the ideal tool for their business, here’s what to know.
The federal government enacted the FedRAMP regulation in December 2011 to enable executive agencies and departments to use an assessment method based on risk and cost-effectiveness when adopting cloud technologies. A FedRAMP readiness assessment is mandatory for cloud products and solutions providers seeking to receive an Authorization to Operate (ATO). FedRAMP ATO indicates that a provider’s hosted information and systems meet FedRAMP requirements.
At Bearer, we often get asked: “How do you detect and classify data just by scanning the source code?” To answer that, we need to answer two important questions.
In our increasingly cloud-centric world, security teams are under pressure to perform effective cloud security monitoring to defend against fast-moving threats. That’s why Devo is pleased to announce the availability of approximately 50 cloud security detections for Amazon Web Services (AWS) to our Security Operations application. The new detections enable organizations to monitor their cloud infrastructure, look for areas of risk, or respond to threats as they emerge.
