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. Many MSPs do offer security services but, owing to the highly specialised nature of cyber security, some chose to partner with MSSPs.
In 2020, security trends have mutated in a matter of months. Since February, the FBI has reported a 300% jump in reported cybercrimes related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) alone has registered over 18,257 COVID-19 security complaints that consequentially equates to nearly $13.44 million in losses.
One question I get asked frequently is “how can I get deeper insight and audit correlation searches running inside my environment?” The first step in understanding our correlation searches, is creating a baseline of what is expected and identify what is currently enabled and running today. Content Management inside Splunk Enterprise Security is a quick way to filter on what is enabled (and it’s built into the UI and works out of the box).
During an internal International Organization for Standardization (ISO) audit, your company assesses its quality management system (QMS) to determine if it complies with ISO 9001. Companies use the ISO 9001 standard to demonstrate that they can consistently provide products and services that meet customer needs and regulatory requirements. Organizations also use ISO 9001 to demonstrate that they are continually improving their products, services, and processes.
There’s no doubt that the adoption of public cloud deployments has accelerated for most organizations recently.

Effectively managing the security and compliance of public cloud deployments can be tricky for many organizations.
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.
Tripwire is very much household name within the cybersecurity community.

At the outset of the global coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, many organizations decided to enforce social distancing by requiring that their employees begin working from home. This decision changed the fundamental way in which many employees were accustomed to working. It also created new security challenges for organizations that had larger remote workforces.
As efforts increase to protect customers from card-present and card-not-present fraud, there is an increasing risk lurking for banks and retailers: false positives. According to KPMG’s 2019 global fraud survey, 51% of respondents reported a significant number of false positives resulting from current technology solutions and decreasing efficiencies in fraud detection.
