If an organization properly implements a SIEM solution, it efficiently draws attention towards warning signs as well as suspicious activity within the network. With the ever-evolving cyber space, continuous security monitoring has become exceedingly important. The benefits of SIEM also extend to understanding business and technology environments, monitoring availability and performance, issue diagnosis, and creation of a report on network activities.

With a colossal surge in cyber-attacks and high reliance on technology in this digital age, ensuring the security of data and information have become a daunting task. Cyber threats are accelerating significantly even faster than the enhancements businesses are making. Computer networks have become bigger and their interconnectivity using a Wide Area Network (WAN) is worldwide due to globalization.

EdOverflow is known for contributing a bunch of stuff: active in the community, one of the people behind security.txt – a standard for structuring responsible disclosures, bug bounty hunter and a member of Detectify Crowdsource. We got a chance to quiz him about security.txt, his motivates for being involved with hacking communities and why he chooses to report to responsible disclosure programs without bounty rewards.

Your company has decided to adopt the Cloud. Or maybe it was among the first ones that decided to rely on virtualized environments before it was even a thing. In either case, cloud security has to be managed. How do you go about that?

Machine learning (ML) technology has the potential to generate tremendous value for businesses. It is already proving itself in the market and powering a growing number of tools across virtually every industry. In order to discuss the current capabilities of ML, we must first examine how it relates to artificial intelligence (AI). Then, we can explore where ML software is today, its real-world applications, and how it’s transforming business.

Last week, along with thousands of attendees from across the globe, Devo descended on San Francisco for the annual RSA Conference. Like you, we’re still recovering, but after reflecting on the conversations and sessions, we think it could be the best RSA Conference yet.

The modern workforce looks a lot different than it did even a decade ago. If employees actually go to a physical office, their workplaces are often defined by open concepts, collaboration and frequent communication. None of this is by accident. Studies consistently show that happy employees are more productive employees, and autonomy and access are two factors that can make employees happy.

Most educators know about the federal student data privacy laws such as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) administered by the US Department of Education. However, modern schools increasingly adopt new technologies such as cloud service providers for managing everything from homework assignments in Google Drive to education data in records management data systems.

In October 2018, FICO (a consumer credit scoring specialist) began scoring the cybersecurity of companies based upon a scan of internet facing vulnerabilities. FICO grades companies using the same scoring that is familiar with consumer credit. These metrics are then used to compare security risks against competitors. This announcement has the potential to be a sea change event in cybersecurity.
