Some organisations fully outsource their cyber security requirements to MSSPs, while others only outsource specific aspects. MSSPs differ from MSPs (Managed Service Providers) in that they specialise in cyber security. By contrast, MSPs are more focused on the remote management of IT infrastructure.

When it comes to the security of your organization, you should not take any risks. That is why you should consider getting professional help with your cyber security needs through MSP and MSSP. But what is the difference? Which one should you choose? Keep reading to learn!
Data breaches are becoming increasingly common, with cyber criminals able to gain quick and easy access to usernames and passwords. Despite efforts to inform consumers about cybersecurity best practices, many still use the same weak passwords across multiple accounts.

Today, we are excited to share our Sysdig 2020 Container Security Snapshot, which provides a sneak peak into our upcoming 2020 Container Usage Report As containers and Kubernetes adoption continue to increase, cloud teams are realizing they need to adopt a new workflow that embeds security into their DevOps processes. Secure DevOps, a variation of DevSecOps, embeds security and monitoring throughout the application lifecycle, from development through production.
Digital attackers can compromise a system in a matter of minutes. But it generally takes organizations much longer to figure out that anything has happened. In its 2020 Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR), for instance, Verizon Enterprise found that more than half of large organizations took days or even months to detect a security incident. Such dwell time gave attackers all they needed to move throughout an infected network and exfiltrate sensitive data.
Cloud computing provides undeniable benefits for storing and accessing electronic health records. Files stored in the cloud are accessible anytime and anywhere from any device, which makes it easy to share critical medical information between healthcare workers.
