Commando VM is a testing platform that Mandiant FireEye created for penetration testers who are more comfortable with the Windows operating system. Windows Commando VM is essentially the sister to Kali Linux, a Linux testing and malware analysis platform widely used by the penetration testing community. These security testing platforms are packaged with all the common solutions and scripts that a pentester would need for offensive testing.
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is a great way to increase both on-premises and cloud security. With MFA in place, when a user logs on, they are required to provide not only their user ID and password but another authentication factor, such as a code sent to their phone. This process reduces the attack surface by preventing adversaries with stolen user credentials from logging on. However, MFA is not a cybersecurity panacea.
Amazon Security Lake allows customers to build security data lakes from integrated cloud and on-premises data sources as well as from their private applications. Directing your security telemetry into a unified data lake makes it easier to manage, analyze, and route security-log and event data to third-party SIEM solutions that leverage that telemetry.
Google Drive is an integral part of Google Workspace (formerly known as G Suite). With over 6 million customers and over 2 billion monthly active users, Google’s platform is the world’s largest collaboration tool for companies both large and small. In Google Drive, employees across the world create, edit, and share files on a daily basis. This, however, does not occur without the risk of data leakage.
As with most SaaS applications, within Salesforce it is your organization’s responsibility to determine whether Salesforce’s default security settings meet your specific security and compliance obligations. Read this online guide, for free, to learn about the problem of data exposure in Salesforce and how to ensure compliance with HIPAA, PCI, and other leading industry standards while storing sensitive data in Salesforce.
The rise of cloud, containers, and microservices has shifted the way software developers work for good. Whereas traditionally, software developers would release a new version of an application every few months, today’s platforms allow teams to work faster and more streamlined. These advancements have led to the rise of “software, safer, sooner” — also known as DevSecOps.
The npm CLI has a very convenient and well-known security feature – when installing an npm package, the CLI checks the package and all of its dependencies for well-known vulnerabilities – The check is triggered on package installation (when running npm install) but can also be triggered manually by running npm audit. This is an important security measure that warns developers against using packages with known vulnerabilities.
The future is arriving faster than you think. By 2030, fully automated vehicles are expected to account for 12% of global vehicle sales—a number that hikes to 20% for new vehicle sales in China. Tomorrow, 1st December, the first electric, semi-autonomous lorries with a range of 500 miles roll off the Tesla production line – headed to Pepsi.
Data encryption is one of the many ways organizations can protect their data. Encryption turns plaintext (readable data) into ciphertext (randomized data), which requires the use of a unique cryptographic key for interpretation. In other words, encryption is a security measure used to scramble data so that it can only be read by authorized personnel.
