Optimally configuring “DisableIPSourceRouting” parameter enhances security by mitigating the risk of denial-of-service (DOS) attacks through packet spoofing. In such attacks, the goal is to inundate the target with high volumes of traffic, and using spoofed IP addresses makes it challenging to filter and identify the true source of the attack. Server hardening can be arduous. CSH by CalCom automates the process, learning your network to eliminate the need for testing.

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats, social engineering remains a potent and insidious method employed by cybercriminals. Unlike traditional hacking techniques that exploit software vulnerabilities, social engineering manipulates human psychology to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information.

In the cyber age, data has become nearly as valuable as oil. While this market shift offers many new learning and growth opportunities for professionals across industries, the immeasurable amount of data is often quite overwhelming to non-analysts, leaving them feeling more lost than when they began their inquiries. ‍ This situation often rings true for cybersecurity leaders tasked with protecting an organization's digital assets against attacks and increasingly malicious actors.

Back in 1992, when I was more concerned about my acne breakouts and being selected for the Junior cricket team, a freshman at Purdue University was studying the impact of the 1988 Morris Worm event and how it brought about unwarranted changes on Unix systems as it propagated across the network, resulting in the first Denial of Service (DoS) attack. He quickly realised that it was hard to know when a system was infected and what had changed, and by the time the change was picked up, it was often too late.

The shifting sands of IT make the adage "you never know it all" ever more true as time goes by. I recall days when it felt like you could click through every major directory of Yahoo and know a little something about everything. I was a young man with a voracious reading appetite and an active imagination – both of which were thoroughly outpaced by the growth of the internet and my own developing maturity.

CISA adds two bugs to the KEV catalog, UAC-0050 distributes Remcos RAT with phishing tactics, and an updated version of Meduza Stealer launches on the dark web.

Mobile devices at the workplace: this so-called trend is here to stay. In response, IT teams are recognizing their responsibility to develop a secure and high-performance operating environment for their mobile and remote workforce. Mobile-related security risks have increased to astronomical levels in the last year: All that to say: a true organizational security posture cannot ignore the mobile apps and devices that its employees and customers use.

Digital threats have led to new cybersecurity regulations that organizations from various industries must follow. Staying compliant with cybersecurity regulations can be legally required, depending on the type of regulation, and organizations face steep penalties if they are non-compliant. With so many different regulations to adhere to, organizations often utilize cybersecurity compliance solutions to help them track compliance over time.

Imagine a world where every cyber threat gets a swift and skilled response. This is the vision of the National Cyber Workforce and Education Strategy (NCWES), a program aimed at creating a future-proof cybersecurity workforce. Why is future-proofing our cybersecurity workforce so important? Because the cyber challenges of today and tomorrow require a diverse, well-educated, and agile workforce.
