The most common application vulnerabilities will come as no surprise to cyber security experts. If we know about them, why do they persist?

Over the last several years, Managed Security Service Providers (MSSP) have evolved, and some have started offering Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services as part of their overall security solution. However, an MSSP lacking MDR capability simply cannot provide the same level of security, particularly in today’s quickly changing environment that has seen remote and hybrid work become the norm.

Engineers worldwide have a tradition to look forward to every holiday season. You are taking in a sporting event on Thanksgiving Day when your uncle asks you why he keeps getting a message to update his iPhone; it’s only two years old. Or your grandma needs help with her hacked Facebook account.

A security operations center (SOC) is a centralized facility that unifies an organization’s security monitoring across all IT infrastructure. SOCs function as a hub for information security personnel and the processes and technology needed to detect, monitor, and remediate cyber threats through real-time data analysis.

When the Biden Administration released its Cybersecurity Executive Order in May 2021, it was clear that Zero Trust would be a central component of the government’s security approach moving forward. Agencies and their partners scrambled to assess their existing Zero Trust investments and the gaps that would need to be filled in order to quickly ramp up implementation.

As cybersecurity professionals, we are always impressing the importance of patch management as one of the best ways to protect systems against vulnerabilities. Sometimes, the vulnerabilities are never fully exploited. Regardless of the threat possibility, patching is one of the easiest ways to ensure the minimum level of security in an organization.

Data loss prevention (DLP) refers to a category of tools and technologies that classify, detect, and protect information (data) in three states: data in use, data at rest, and data in motion. The purpose of DLP is to enforce corporate data security policies that govern where data does — and doesn’t — belong. As such, there are some key strategies and best practices required to build these data security policies.
