Digital Risk Protection: a CISO friendly tool

Explore how Digital Risk Protection can benefit Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) in safeguarding their organizations against online threats. Understanding Digital Risk Protection Digital Risk Protection refers to the set of tools and strategies used to identify, monitor, and mitigate digital risks that organizations face in today's digitally connected world. These risks can include data breaches, cyber-attacks, brand impersonation, and other online threats.

SenseOn achieves 99% protection rate and 0 false positives in the latest AV-Comparatives Real-World Protection Test

SenseOn achieves 99% protection rate and 0 false positives in the latest AV-Comparatives Real-World Protection Test False positive alerts in security operations pose a significant risk by diverting critical resources and attention away from genuine threats. These incorrect alarms, which signal threats where none exist, can lead to wasted time, reduced efficiency, and increased costs as security teams investigate and address these non-issues.

FBI Warns of AI-Assisted Phishing Campaigns

The US Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI’s) San Francisco division warns that threat actors are increasingly using AI tools to improve their social engineering attacks. “AI provides augmented and enhanced capabilities to schemes that attackers already use and increases cyber-attack speed, scale, and automation,” the FBI says.

Phishing and Pretexting Dominate Social Engineering-Related Data Breaches

New data shows that despite the massive evolution of the cybercrime economy, threat actors are sticking with the basics in social engineering attacks, with a goal at stealing data. I probably could have called this purely based on all the articles I’ve written (and all the articles I’ve read that never made it here). But when it comes to protecting your organization from social engineering, stick to the basics.

Symmetric vs. asymmetric encryption: Practical Python examples

Symmetric and asymmetric encryption are the two most common ways to protect sensitive data with cryptography. These methods use key(s) to transform an unencrypted message into an encrypted message (a ciphertext) that is extremely difficult to decrypt without the correct key(s). Symmetric encryption uses a single key to encrypt and decrypt data. In contrast, asymmetric encryption uses a pair of keys, a public and private key, to encrypt and decrypt sensitive data.

The Biggest Security Nightmares from 2023 and How They Could Ruin Your 2024

It feels like the number of security issues affecting vital internet-exposed assets is never-ending. No one can predict the next big vulnerability. But exposure management techniques can help prepare your organization for a wide range of issues by identifying, validating, and mobilizing your response to emerging threats. These processes also include validating fixes and issues, a well-documented mobilization process, and automatic scanning for high value assets.

Understanding the Key Differences Between FIM and EDR

File integrity monitoring (FIM) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) are two cybersecurity solutions that are often foundational aspects of organizations’ security strategies. EDR is implemented in order to stop known and unknown threats at endpoints, often with advanced functions such as behavioral monitoring and analysis, antivirus protection, and threat response capabilities.

AI, Platforms, Zero Trust, and Other Topics That Dominated RSA Conference 2024

Every year there’s quite a bit happening at the RSA Conference and no matter how hard you try, it can be difficult to take it all in. Between a sprawling showfloor with hundreds of vendors vying for attention, speaking sessions with experts from across the industry, private meetings with customers and prospects, plus social events in the evening, it’s understandable that you can come away with a bit of sensory overload.

Cyber Defense Magazine names Forward Networks a Market Leader in Vulnerability Assessment, Remediation and Management at 12th annual Global Infosec Awards

During a very busy RSA Conference, Forward Networks was named a market leader in vulnerability assessment, remediation, and management at the 12th annual Global Infosec Awards hosted by Cyber Defense Magazine. This is the second consecutive year that Forward Networks has taken top honors in security.

Part 1: How Egnyte Built its Turnkey Retrieval Augmented Generation Solution

The Egnyte platform houses a lot of data. To enable users to make the most of this asset, we need to help them efficiently retrieve information. Traditional search interfaces do a decent job of retrieving information directly related to query keywords, often presenting results in a list format without additional interpretation or synthesis.
