Software supply chain risk assessment: 8 steps to a secure SDLC

Like any chain, a software supply chain contains many links. These links consist of every actor involved in the development & deployment of your code in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). An actor can be the developers, infrastructure components, and even repositories like GitHub. A company might have a very secure supply chain. However, it will only be as strong as its weakest link.

On-Prem and Kubernetes: A delicate relationship

In cloud security, context is everything. In the previous two installments of our Customers Care Chronicles, we wrote about how a security vendor needs to be a true business partner and the potential headaches when migrating tools in the cloud. In this installment, we tackle another non-security concept that happens to be crucial for security: environment.

Evolution of Attack Surface Management

What You Need to Know About the ISOO CUI Registry

We’ve written a lot about various security frameworks, from CMMC to ISO 27001, and throughout all of them, one of the core elements is the need to protect CUI. Information that is controlled at a very high – SECRET, Classified, or other – level is tightly bound by specific rules and can only be handled by select individuals. Completely base, public information is freely available and completely uncontrolled. But there’s a lot of information somewhere in the middle.

Threat Hunting for macOS - Webinar

MacOS environments are increasingly becoming targets for sophisticated cyber attacks. This webinar delves into advanced threat hunting techniques within macOS, focusing on the utilization of MUL (macOS Unified Logging) events and comprehensive system telemetry. We look at macOS data sources to uncover hidden threats and enhance detection capabilities.

Best Practices for Creating Strong Passwords You'll Remember

Making sure your password is strong yet memorable can be challenging and stressful. However, following best practices – like using passphrases, incorporating acronyms and relying on a password manager – will ensure your passwords are strong and safe.

Nearly Half of Mid-Market and Enterprise Organizations Have Experienced Four or More Ransomware Attacks in the Last Year

New data exposes the reality of ransomware attacks today, including their frequency, impact, ransom payment – and the involvement of human error. It’s readily evident that ransomware is only growing as a threat. But a new infographic from ERP Cybersecurity vendor Onapsis covering the state of ransomware provides some context on just how critical the threat is right now: The most shocking stat is that in 81% of attacks, human error was involved in the successful execution of the ransomware.

U.S. Experiences 52% Increase in the Number of Ransomware Attacks in One Year

New analysis of current ransomware attacks shows a massive focus on U.S. organizations, with growth spread across nearly every industry. One would think there would be a slowdown in the number of ransomware attacks due to the amount of threat intelligence and best practices to mitigate this threat.
