CI/CD is a recommended technique for DevOps teams and a best practice in agile methodology. CI/CD is a method for consistently delivering apps to clients by automating the app development phases. Continuous integration, continuous delivery, and continuous deployment are the key concepts. CI/CD adds continuous automation and monitoring throughout the whole application lifetime, from the integration and testing phases to delivery and deployment.

In a new 12-minute video Rakesh Shah AVP Product Management and Development of AT&T Cybersecurity, explains Extended Detection and Response (XDR). This video was part of the virtual Black Hat USA event in August. It’s not product-specific and explains what can be a very confusing concept in a delightfully simple way.

One of the most important pillars of a well-architected framework is security. Thus, it is important to follow these AWS security best practices to prevent unnecessary security situations. So, you’ve got a problem to solve and turned to AWS to build and host your solution. You create your account and now you’re all set up to brew some coffee and sit down at your workstation to architect, code, build, and deploy. Except, you aren’t.

One commonly used feature with Tines is the ability to configure your Actions to run on a schedule (docs). For example, an HTTP Request Action that runs every minute, once a day, or every few hours. Our customers rely heavily on this feature in carrying out their mission-critical workflows. In this post, we examine how our old job scheduler system worked, a very interesting race condition, and why we replaced our old scheduler with something more reliable to meet our delivery guarantees.

At CloudCasa, as a cloud-native backup-as-a-service provider, we are often dealing with customer concerns about the security and privacy of their data. Sometimes the concern is almost paradoxical because the data and application they are protecting is publicly accessible and running inside the public cloud. However, there are times when organizations use public cloud infrastructure with a network architecture that resembles a private cloud.

Gartner predicted that in three years, “80% of enterprises will have adopted a strategy to unify web, cloud services and private application access from a single vendor’s security service edge (SSE) platform.” It seems like it wasn’t too long ago that the security industry was recommending multiple vendors to safeguard your business. Now the pendulum swings the other way. Fortunately, it’s a healthy sign for the cybersecurity industry.

At ThreatQuotient, we write a lot about security automation. Most recently, we’ve discussed how our data-driven approach to automation helps enable extended detection and response (XDR) in all phases of security operations including detection, investigation and response.

Even before the pandemic, many companies had a relaxed approach to the devices employees brought to work. In fact, many businesses had BYOD (bring your own device) policies that allowed team members to work on personal laptops or cell phones. By one account, 75% of employees use their personal cell phones for work. The rise of remote work has only escalated the use of tablets, laptops, and mobile phones for professional use.

Every year, business owners grapple with the same question: how can I keep my data safe? The cost of a data leak can quickly escalate to over $7 million per incident, not to mention the damage to a business’s brand reputation and competitive advantage. And, unfortunately, cyber attacks are getting more sophisticated every year. There are many solutions on the market to help businesses protect their information.

Passwords are an easy way to implement an authentication mechanism in which the user is asked to enter a string of characters (that he had chosen) to log in to his accounts. We will cover brute force attacks, types and examples in this blog article.
