Cybersecurity incident response is an essential aspect of modern organizational security. In the event of a security breach or any other security-related incident, it is crucial to have a well-defined process to minimize the impact of top cyber security threats and recover from them as quickly as possible. Two of the most widely used frameworks for incident response are SANS and NIST.

Cyberattacks are increasing in frequency and sophistication, and it's only a matter of time before a security incident occurs. When it does, having a comprehensive and effective incident response strategy can make all the difference in mitigating the damage and minimizing the impact on your organization. In this article, we will provide tips and best practices for improving incident response strategy.

This post discusses how GitHub Actions can enhance the security of CI/CD pipelines by automating security-related tasks and providing integration with other security tools, version control, access control, and auditing. These days, security has become more important than ever in software development processes. With cyberattacks becoming increasingly frequent and sophisticated, organizations must prioritize security throughout their software development lifecycle to protect their systems, data, and users.

Last month, The White House introduced a new National Cybersecurity Strategy for the first time since 2018. The landscape has changed rapidly over the past five years – a lifetime in cyber. Yet one thing remains constant, then and now: Cyberattacks are inevitable. Rubrik supports a whole of government approach to solve these existential challenges we face. In particular, efforts like this one, which is focused on resiliency, are likely to produce the greatest impact.

Mass assignment is a vulnerability that allows attackers to exploit predictable record patterns and invoke illegal actions. Mass assignment usually occurs when properties are not filtered when binding client-provided data-to-data models. Vulnerabilities of this type allow an attacker to create additional objects in POST request payloads, allowing them to modify properties that should be immutable.

Hacks and data leaks have affected many major players in recent years, including AT&T Vendor(9 Million accounts), T-Mobile (37 Million accounts), JD Sports(10 Million), MyDeal (2.2Million), Dropbox (nearly 69 million accounts), Flagstar bank (1.5 Million) and eBay (145 million). Those were bad. But not the worst. What are the most notorious hacks in history? They’re subject to debate, but these 27 attacks categorized under OWASP Top 10 would be strong candidates for the title.

According to IBM’s “Securing the C-suite” report, most C-suite executives are confident in their cybersecurity plans. However, the truth is that only 17% exhibit the highest level of security. 60% of CFOs, CHROs, and CMOs feel the least engaged regarding cybersecurity threat management, despite often handling the most critical data of their respective companies.

The last decade has seen a notable step in the evolution of network security and operations as companies move to a Software Defined Network (SDN) model, centralising control of switches, routers, VPN concentrators, load balancers and SD-WAN devices. This simplifies the management and operation of the network, driving down operational costs and reducing risk through better patch and update management.

Proctor and Gamble is a massive production company that produces home goods under many different brands and sells them around the world. Major brands like Febreze, Olay, Pantene, Pampers, Gillette, Crest, Dawn, and so many others belong to the organization. Proctor and Gamble recently admitted that it also suffered from data losses linked to attacks on the GoAnywhere file transfer service.

The security industry spent decades propagating the myth that risk is bad, and you must eliminate it — but this truth is… Your biggest risk could be the way you view it. You see, there are various “lenses” through which to view risk: rose-colored, blinders, magnifying and crystal clear. After presenting this concept at an ISACA-sponsored webinar, I received many questions and comments about putting this into practice.
