Observability pipelines help cybersecurity teams maximize the value of their data by giving them critical visibility into telemetry. This visibility allows them to eliminate visibility gaps, enhance security operations center (SOC) efficiency, and reduce spending on high-cost SIEM tools. Until recently, the observability space has been dominated by point solutions like Cribl, Monad, and Observo.

If you ask the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) how Australians feel about their country, their response would paint a rosy picture. For example, on average people around the world rate their satisfaction with their country at 6.7 out of 10. Australians rate their satisfaction at 7.1. The average electoral participation among nations is 69%, in Australia it’s 92%.

LimaCharlie is a different kind of security vendor—and this gives managed security services providers (MSSPs) a competitive advantage unlike anything else in the industry. For MSSP users that want to deepen their partnership with LimaCharlie, we’ve developed a special MSSP Partner Program. Here’s what it’s all about.

As browsers increasingly become users' primary operating systems for accessing analytics, financial, and other sensitive data, their security requirements are evolving. While browser developers invest significant resources in secure development, one vulnerability remains difficult to address: browser extensions. Browser companies must maintain extension flexibility to allow users to customize their web browsing experience.

We are excited to announce the integration of the CelesTLSH Malware Scanner into the LimaCharlie ecosystem. Developed by Magonia Research, CelesTLSH enhances your security operations by scanning files collected via the BinLib extension. It identifies known malware and threat actor tools through advanced fuzzy hashing techniques.

Vendors increasingly claim to offer SecOps platforms. Yet, their solutions are so different from each other that buyers find themselves wondering what the term “SecOps platform” even means. We’d like to give a straightforward answer to that question.

This blog was originally published on MSSP Alert on November 20, 2024. Imagine being able to offer your customers instant value for selecting your MSSP over others. This sounds like a tricky proposition, given that organizations seeking managed security solutions can be extremely diverse. What could a medical institution need that would also benefit an energy company? Where do the needs of a tech startup and a dairy farm intersect?

Managed security service providers (MSSPs) must confront a worrying trend: More and more cybersecurity solutions vendors are developing—or acquiring—managed services offerings of their own. This places MSSPs in direct competition with the vendors on whose tools they depend. Large EDR/XDR providers like CrowdStrike, Palo Alto, and Check Point already have managed detection and response (MDR) services. And more large security firms are moving in this direction.

This blog was originally published on MSSP Alert on October 16, 2024. MSSPs want to grow—but the complexity of modern security operations (SecOps) and the unique demands of the security services market make this challenging. In this post, we’ll look at how tools with public cloud or public cloud-like pricing—pricing that is usage- or consumption-based rather than fixed fee or license-based—can help MSSPs grow more effectively and efficiently.

This blog was originally published on MSSP Alert on September 20, 2024 Cybersecurity platformization is usually discussed as it relates to large organizations. But cybersecurity service businesses stand to benefit as much from platformization as enterprises — if not more so.
