With Nightfall’s enhanced PHI detection capabilities, which are based on an advanced combination of logic and context, it is very easy to identify specific instances of PHI unique to organizations. What’s even better is that all of this can be automated and tie seamlessly into existing customer workflows.

Penetration testing is a vital part of cybersecurity strategy development, evaluating the strength of an organization’s infrastructure. To prevent attackers from exploiting security flaws in your software or networks, you want to discover them as soon as possible. Penetration testing is becoming increasingly common because it anticipates attacks instead of waiting for them to happen, allowing people to be more proactive in their security initiatives.

With an understanding of what open source licenses are and their benefits, it’s also useful to know what are the main categories of these licenses, the different types, and their requirements. It’s quite an array, which can be overwhelming, but with this knowledge, you can make more informed choices about what software and what licenses are right for your purposes.

Organizations in the UAE have been able to deliver innovative services and stimulate economic development through the increasing adoption of Information Technology (IT), electronic communications, and cyberspace, which is a global network of interconnected telecommunications networks, information technology infrastructures, and computer processing systems. As these technologies develop, the UAE's dependence on them will increase.

Listed as #1 on the OWASP Top 10 list, broken access control is when an attacker can gain unauthorized access to restricted information or systems. Access control ensures that people can only gain access to things they’re supposed to have access to. When access control is broken, an attacker can obtain unauthorized access to information or systems that can put an organization at risk of a data breach or system compromise.

Matt Lawrence, Head of Defensive Security, and Dan Green, Head of Solutions, write about why compromise is inevitable – and the practical steps that organisations can take to build a security operating model capable of weathering the storm of cyber threats today.

In the first two blogs in this series, we discussed properly setting up IAM and avoiding direct internet access to AWS resources. In this blog, we’ll tackle encrypting AWS in transit and at rest.

SecurityScorecard has been in Davos, Switzerland for the past week with heads of state, CEOs, and other global leaders as part of the 2023 World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting. Along with climate change, sustainability, and geopolitical complexities, cybersecurity is one of the hottest topics of WEF’s official programming and the myriad private events that are part of the Davos annual experience.

Frost & Sullivan has named Sysdig a Leader in its recent research, Frost Radar™: Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms (CNAPP). The independent report ranks Sysdig as a top vendor in both innovation and growth, putting special emphasis on the strength of Sysdig’s technology and market vision compared to competitors in the space.

Increased cloud adoption has introduced new security risks; organizations need to protect invaluable, sensitive data that can be accessed from anywhere. Traditional methods no longer suffice - today’s security operations teams must adopt innovative solutions and streamlined processes to effectively manage the increase in complexity and ensure mission-critical cloud loads are safeguarded.
