Fraud in financial services is becoming more sophisticated, costing the industry billions annually and eroding customer trust. Recently, Deloitte published an article highlighting the risk AI brings in the form of fraudsters to the financial services industry: “Fake content has never been easier to create — or harder to catch. As threats grow, banks can invest in AI and other technologies to help detect fraud and prevent losses.”

It’s a warm, sunny day as you lie in the sand under a big umbrella. Suddenly, you feel the waves crashing against your feet, only to look down and see numbers, letters, usernames, and timestamps. You try to stand up, but you feel the tide of big data pulling you under… With a jolt, you wake up, realizing that you were having another nightmare about your security Data Lake and analytics.

Your Domain Name System (DNS) infrastructure enables users to connect to web-based resources by translating everyday language into IP addresses. Imagine going into a restaurant, in the age before the internet, only to find that the staff speaks and the menu is written in a different language from yours. Without some shared communication form, you can’t order dinner, and they can’t give you what you want.

Many organizations today have strict data privacy regulations that they must comply with. These privacy regulations can often clash with the requirements of security, application and operations teams who need detailed log information. This how to guide walks you through redacting message fields for privacy purposes. At Graylog, many of the organizations who use our tool are logging sensitive data that may contain personally identifiable information, health related data or financial data.

Wherever you live, people can find you using either a street address or a set of latitude and longitude numbers. In the digital world, your website’s domain name or URL is the street address while the IP address is the latitude and longitude. For example, it would be cumbersome to tell people that you live at 35°05′17″N 109°48′23″W, but easy to say a number and street name. IP address data is useful for both protective and detective cybersecurity functions.

A recent analysis by JPMorganChase criticized the CVSS scoring process, finding missing context leads to misleading prioritization. When it comes to cybersecurity, patching vulnerabilities often feels like the Holy Grail. Get those CVEs patched, and you’re safe, right? Well, not exactly. As we know, patching isn’t as straightforward—or as effective—as we’d like to believe.

The Devo Platform has earned its reputation as a powerful and innovative force in Security Information and Event Management (SIEM). Customers rely on Devo to detect and respond to threats in real time, gain complete visibility into their security posture, and streamline their security operations.

The high volumes of security data that cloud environments generate leave security teams swimming in data, but many feel like they need a life preserver to improve their incident response capabilities. Enter security data lakes. As the costs associated with data retention become overwhelming, organizations are embracing the idea of security data lakes and data warehouses.

Factors such as scalability, budget, and security must be considered for businesses considering their cloud storage and data management needs. Still, one of the most crucial factors that must be accounted for is what compliance standards must be met. Compliance with GDPR, HIPPA, SIEM, or other bodies ensures the organization adheres to legal, regulatory, and industry standards that are met to protect sensitive data.

Capturing network traffic is usually done either for security reasons or to troubleshoot networking issues. But by the time you initiate a network capture (either manually or automatically) it’s often too late already – the train has already left the station. Point in case: Say your SIEM (obviously EventSentry) detects abnormal or suspicious behavior in a log and a network capture is initiated.
