CIS Control 14: Security Awareness and Skill Training

Users who do not have the appropriate security awareness training are considered a weak link in the security of an enterprise. These untrained users are easier to exploit than finding a flaw or vulnerability in the equipment that an enterprise uses to secure its network. Attackers could convince unsuspecting users to unintentionally provide access to the enterprise network or expose sensitive information. Proper training should be provided to users in order to decrease the risk of a security incident.

Gaining Security Context with API Session Data

API attacks don't always occur in a single request, and more sophisticated attacks require additional context. Whether it's account takeover or scraping, understanding the behavior of an attacker across a session is key to accurate detection and effective investigation. Today, organizations often lack the ability to delve into the details of specific API sessions. Data is spread across multiple tools, or simply unavailable. The Wallarm platform allows users to seamlessly navigate between attack detections and the surrounding session data to fully understand the behavior and interactions involved.

Understanding the Importance of XDR

Cyber threats hide everywhere, and the numbers are shocking—more than 80% of companies dealt with a major security problem last year. The usual safety steps just don’t work well enough now leaving too many openings for attackers to sneak through. This is where Extended Detection and Response (XDR) comes in. XDR brings together information from computers, networks, and the cloud into one system giving security teams the power to spot and tackle threats better.

Network Digital Twins Deliver Reliable AI Outcomes

In the realm of artificial intelligence (AI), especially when applied to networking and security, the accuracy and reliability of data are paramount. AI systems are only as good as the data they consume, and for network engineers, feeding these systems with up-to-date and precise information can make the difference between optimal performance and costly errors.

Leveraging Custom IOC Feeds for Enhanced Threat Detection

Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) are vital components in cybersecurity, representing digital clues or evidence that signal a potential security breach or malicious activity in a computer system or network. Think of them as the fingerprints left behind by cybercriminals during or after a cyber-attack. Examples of common IOCs are: Security teams use IOCs as red flags to identify and mitigate threats before they cause significant damage.

Emerging from Cybersecurity Month, Insights to Secure Our Digital Future

Each October, Cybersecurity Awareness Month reminds us of the ongoing battle to safeguard our data. It’s a time when individuals and organizations alike focus on the importance of cybersecurity, igniting conversations and actions to protect against the relentless surge of cyber threats. This annual event is a call to arms for IT professionals and security-conscious individuals to elevate their practices and fortify their defenses.

DevOps Data Protection Strategy - Why Shouldn't You Limit Only To Daily Backups?

Your DevOps data is in constant growth… every hour your team of developers pushes changes, merges branches, or does some fixes. This requires your backup strategy to be flexible and adaptive, catching all the changes in your DevOps environment not only on a daily basis.

Introducing Account Discovery: Full Visibility and Control over Privileged Accounts

Overlooked privileged accounts represent a serious vulnerability for organizations of all sizes. Syteca’s account discovery feature empowers you to minimize this vulnerability by detecting all hidden privileged accounts and allowing you to manage them with precision. In this post, we’ll explore the benefits of account discovery and take a look at how this feature can strengthen your cybersecurity defenses and protect sensitive data.

Managing Third Party and Insider Threats: Building Security Resilience

By James Rees, MD, Razorthorn Security In an era of interconnected services and external partnerships, two critical security challenges loom large: third party risk and insider threats. Recent events highlight these concerns – from the massive breach of Social Security numbers through a service provider to the CrowdStrike incident that grounded major airlines, causing hundreds of millions in damages.

The Crucial Network Security Guardrails for Ensuring GenAI Success

Millions of organizations are actively deploying and leveraging generative AI (GenAI) applications in a bid to streamline productivity, reduce costs and improve efficiencies. A high percentage of enterprises are in the midst of trialing GenAI pilot programs, and by 2026, it is anticipated that more than 80% of enterprises will have deployed generative AI-enabled applications, according to Gartner.
