Zero trust is a philosophy and practice all about securing data across your entire network. Zero trust means trust no one — authenticate everyone. Adopting this philosophy means your organization assumes that every single user, device and service that attempts to connect to its network is hostile until proven otherwise.

One of the best ways to mitigate security incident risk is to have a system. Devising and enforcing policies that you can address systematically is key. After all, it is inadequacies in technologies, people and processes that increase your risk. Examples of these inadequacies include: To address these shortcomings, organizations can establish a systematic framework plus policies for information security. Together, this is called the Information Security Management System (ISMS).

The digital landscape has long been a sort of Wild West: each organization contends for itself and fights alone against a growing onslaught of cybercrime. Some enterprises build impressive security infrastructures. Many more organizations struggle to maintain vital security measures as cybercriminals’ tactics evolve. Today, the cybersecurity industry wants to usher in a more advanced era, one where organizations collaborate to improve resilience and mitigate risks.

As a CISO or security leader, you juggle many responsibilities—crafting a cybersecurity strategy, managing the security budget, and overseeing your organization’s information systems. But can you remember the last time you took a moment to step back and prioritize evaluating your SIEM? Like your favorite pair of jeans from 15 years ago, your trusty on-prem SIEM likely isn’t fitting as well as it used to. Here are four ways your legacy solution is holding you back.

Extended detection and response (XDR) is a technology approach that aims to provide holistic protection of endpoints. XDR technology is able to: In this in-depth article, let’s look at how XDR solutions work and what they help with. We’ll also look at limitations inherent in XDR and how they compare to other security tools, like SIEM and SOAR.

AWS offers a variety of technologies that help organizations adopt cloud-based solutions and often promote overall cybersecurity. As with any complex technology, AWS solutions are also exposed to the risk of security vulnerabilities.

Picture this: A crowd of people suddenly, without warning, enter a tiny shop, with room for only a handful of customers. All these extra people make it impossible for customers to get in or get out. Those extra people do not intend to shop — instead they want to disrupt the regular business operations. All this traffic jam-packs the shop, preventing it from carrying out normal business operations.

Effectively detecting, investigating and responding to security threats is not easy. SIEM can help — a lot. SIEM is cybersecurity technology that provides a single, streamlined view of your data, insight into security activities, and operational capabilities so you can stay ahead of cyber threats.
