Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

What if there was a large, global event dedicated to finding and fixing security vulnerabilities in both open and closed-source software? An event that brings developers, DevOps, and security practitioners of all skill levels and backgrounds together to collectively make the software world more secure? Well, I’m excited to announce that Snyk has made this a reality by launching The Big Fix — a month-long event that’s running now!

The 12th volume of our annual State of Software Security (SOSS) report is now live! Rather than examining a single year of activity associated with an application, in this year's report we looked at the entire history of active applications. By doing so, we can view the full life cycle of applications, which results in more accurate metrics and observations.

Our world is changing rapidly. More than ever, organizations are reliant on digital technologies to do business. Cyber threats continue to evolve as adversaries seek to exploit digital connections for financial gain. Today, SecurityScorecard has announced the acquisition of LIFARS, a global leader in digital forensics, incident response, ransomware mitigation and cyber resiliency services.

We are thrilled to announce the general availability of CrowdStrike’s newest innovation: Falcon XDR. Founded on our pioneering endpoint detection and response (EDR) technology and the power of the CrowdStrike Security Cloud, Falcon XDR delivers the next generation of unified, full-spectrum extended detection and response (XDR) so security teams can stop breaches faster.

Securing modern-day production systems is expensive and complex. Teams often need to implement extensive measures, such as secure coding practices, security testing, periodic vulnerability scans and penetration tests, and protections at the network edge. Even when organizations have the resources to deploy these solutions, they still struggle to keep pace with software teams, especially as they accelerate their release cycles and migrate to distributed systems and microservices.

When our customers begin their security journey with Arctic Wolf, our Concierge Delivery Model benchmarks their security programs against the NIST Cybersecurity Framework. The NIST framework spans five functions (Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover), and offers guidelines and best practices for organizations to better manage, reduce, and ultimately end cyber risk.
