Selecting SIEM Tools - Questions to Consider

So, you’ve done your homework. You’ve clearly defined business requirements, and you think you want to implement a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) solution into your organization. Cloud migration and remote work have changed the way threat actors attack, and it feels like every day you read about a new methodology. While a lot of companies added a SIEM to their cybersecurity technology stack, you’re not sure whether you can afford one.

7 Steps to Implement an Effective Vulnerability Management Program

When a new vulnerability is found, the race is on to either solve it or exploit it (depending on which side you’re on). But while attackers are getting faster, companies not so much. Dev teams take around 215 days to resolve a security vulnerability. The numbers are only marginally shorter when dealing with critical vulnerabilities. This delay is particularly concerning given the rise in zero-day exploits, where hackers take advantage of a security flaw before the organization even knows it exists.

The Essential Components of a DevSecOps Pipeline

DevSecOps pipelines arose in response to DevOps and CI/CD, which made it possible for developers to iteratively and continuously deliver small code changes, rather than massive deployments periodically. In theory, by integrating security into DevOps processes that enable continuous integration and delivery, developers could find and resolve security issues early in the software development lifecycle (SDLC), which is much faster than fixing security issues in production.

The Developer's Guide to DevSecOps Tools and Processes

How many security tools do you use daily? If you’re like 35% of developers, it’s probably too many for your liking. Building a DevSecOps toolchain is key to making DevSecOps a success and reaping all of its benefits. However, knowing where to start with so many different tools and processes can be overwhelming. This article will explain the key DevSecOps tools and processes, while providing a guidance for building a software security program that works for you.

A Guide to IaC Security and Scanning

Infrastructure as code (IaC) provides an innovative approach to provisioning and managing cloud infrastructure through code, instead of doing it through manual processes. This foundational shift not only accelerates development cycles but also introduces new dimensions of risk that must be carefully managed. In this article, we'll delve into these challenges and explore strategies to secure IaC environments from potential vulnerabilities and threats. 

System Cryptography: A Beginner's Guide

In today’s digitally interconnected world, where data flows freely across networks and devices, ensuring its security is paramount. This is where system cryptography steps in, offering a suite of tools and techniques to safeguard sensitive information from prying eyes and malicious actors. Let’s delve deeper into the realm of system cryptography, exploring its intricacies and significance in modern computing.

What is Intellectual Property Infringement, and How to Avoid It?

When we think of “property,” the first thing that comes to our mind might be tangible objects—items we’ve purchased, like cars and homes, or entitlements we’ve procured, like land, titles, or even honorifics. However, there is another type of property that includes intangible ownership, creations of the mind, and various assets of a nonphysical nature.

Quicker Fixes for What Matters Most: Seemplicity Leverages VulnCheck KEV

Cybersecurity Awareness: Protecting Your Profile from Online Threats

Have you ever considered how vulnerable your online profile might be to cyber threats? A study by the University of Maryland showed that hackers attack at least every 39 seconds. From the moment you log into your social media accounts to the instant you make an online purchase, you're constantly at risk of falling victim to cyberattacks. The big question is: is there a way to prevent this from happening?
