Cybersecurity Budgets Are Increasing, but Security Leaders Don't Think It's Enough

Despite the belief that today’s SOC should be doing the lion’s share of protecting an organization, new data shows reliance on more than just security teams is needed. Many of our blogs have something to do with the increasing risk of cyber attacks. So, it’s natural to see that organizations are increasing cybersecurity budgets. But according to Red Canary’s 2024 Security Operations Trends Report, it might not be enough to address the evolving threat landscape.

How MDR Enhances the Security Protection Provided by Managed SIEM

Security information and event management (SIEM) systems are crucial to collecting and analyzing incoming cyber threats, but many companies need help to tune and monitor them properly. These firms enlist a security service provider to do it for them. That often leads to the question of whether a managed detection and response (MDR) service is also necessary. In short, yes, adding MDR is a strong move as it adds deep threat investigation, threat hunting, and response actions at the endpoint.

Unlocking the Potential of GRC Tools: A Path to Strategic Risk Management

By James Rees, MD, Razorthorn Security In today’s complex cybersecurity landscape, Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) tools have become essential for organisations managing intricate security ecosystems. These tools are designed to centralise information, streamline processes and offer crucial insights into an organisation’s risk posture. However, as cybersecurity expert Jack Jones revealed when he joined me on a recent podcast, the reality often falls short of these ambitious claims.

Prescribing Strong API Security: A Lifeline for Healthcare Data

In 2024, healthcare organizations face heightened security challenges, mainly as they increasingly rely on Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to support critical functions. APIs have become indispensable in driving digital transformation and improving operational efficiencies across healthcare systems. However, the rising complexity and volume of APIs, alongside insufficient security practices, have created a vulnerable environment ripe for exploitation.

Netskope Risk Exchange Ecosystem: Combating Shadow IT

This blog series continues to explore a number of different workflows that those comfortable using basic scripting, or enablement tools like Postman, can employ to programmatically update and inform your inline policy actions. These are just some of the functions that the newest version of Cloud Exchange (CE), version 5.1, supports now and in the future. Look for it to hit the shelves at the end of October 2024.

Reducing False Positives in API Security: Advanced Techniques Using Machine Learning

False positives in API security are a serious problem, often resulting in wasted results and time, missing real threats, alert fatigue, and operational disruption. Fortunately, however, emerging technologies like machine learning (ML) can help organizations minimize false positives and streamline the protection of their APIs. Let's examine how.
