Threat Intelligence Feeds, in fact, are an actionable threat data related to artifacts or indicators collected from any third-party vendors in order to learn from other company’s visibility and access to enhance your own cyber threat response and awareness. The example of these third-party vendors includes Kaspersky Threat Intelligence and Alient Vault OTX. Threat Intelligence Feeds concentrate on a single area of interest and they are delivered online.

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) program provides an information security compliance benchmark for companies that are handling, processing and storing cardholder data online. Software development and vulnerability management are covered in the PCI DSS compliance requirements as this concerns products and applications created to handle cardholder data.

For continuous coverage, we push out major Detectify security updates every two weeks, keeping our tool up-to-date with new findings, features and improvements sourced from our security researchers and Crowdsource ethical hacker community. Due to confidentially agreements, we cannot publicize all security update releases here but they are immediately added to our scanner and available to all users. This post highlights a few things that we have improved in the last two weeks.

Kubernetes isn’t (just) fun and games anymore. It’s being rolled out for production; it’s mission-critical; and all the security and compliance rules and regulations of the old world need to somehow be retrofitted onto Kubernetes. Unfortunately, the old tools for access control like RBAC simply aren’t up to the challenge.

Cloud networks are popular targets for cybercriminals and organizations will inevitably face them. If you’ve ever administered a network of any type, you know that DDoS (distributed denial of service) attack attempts are really frequent, and there’s loads of malware out there too.

Forrester Research has released The Forrester Wave™: Intelligent Application & Service Monitoring, Q2 2019 report and I am excited to share that Devo has been identified as a Strong Performer. Devo’s recognition as a Strong Performer is, in our opinion, a great validation of our data-first approach.

The time-consuming, administratively burdensome compliance process is riddled with potential human errors that can lead to violations. As securing data increasingly relies on proving controls’ effectiveness, the compliance becomes more stressful for everyone in the organization. However, building compliance workflow can streamline the process leading to a more cost effect and auditable outcome.

As technological solutions to cybercrime become increasingly advanced, able to preempt attacks and weed out vulnerabilities before they’re widely known, attackers also become more adept at cloaking their presence and concealing their intent. The targets of attacks also change with the times.

In September 2017, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) released Special Publication (SP) 800-190, Application Container Security Guide. NIST SP 800-190 explains the security concerns associated with container technologies and recommendations for the image details and container runtime security. It provides prescriptive details for various sections including image, registry, orchestrator, container and host OS countermeasures.
