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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) is a key intelligence and audit tool in an advanced security portfolio. While it is a logical component to integrate into your Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) tooling, it’s important to consider your approach to ensure you can gain the most benefits from it.

Keeping your Android work devices safe from unwanted factory resets is really important for businesses today. Let’s learn how Mobile Device Management (MDM) can help prevent the misuse of Android work devices from unauthorized hard and soft resets, making it an easy way to protect your data and keep everything working smoothly!

When we carry out an assessment of an organization’s attack surface, it’s often SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) misconfigurations (and other encryption-related issues) that get the worst average scores. Research has estimated that 95% of applications have some kind of misconfiguration or vulnerability. These issues are often overlooked, but they shouldn’t be – their visibility to attackers make them an attack route that’s likely to be exploited.

A social engineering attack is a form of cybersecurity attack where attackers approach individuals and psychologically manipulate them into divulging sensitive information or performing actions that compromise security. Unlike traditional hacking methods that exploit system vulnerabilities, social engineering preys on human psychology, using the likes of deceit, urgency or trust to bypass defenses.
