Risk is one of those standard terms within cybersecurity that, when asked to define, many struggle to explain what risk is and how it applies to cybersecurity. To start, we need to understand risk as it applies to security. Risk, like mathematics, is an artificial construct that humans use to understand and describe their environment.
For legal professionals, digital transformation also delivers significant benefits. Integrating technologies such as e-signatures, automating contract creation, Cloud-based collaboration tools, AI-powered documents, clause and contract review tools, and Cloud-based services are boosting the competitiveness of law firms in the post-pandemic world. However, these technological advantages for legal professionals can be threatened through exposure to cybercrime.
Remote work is not going away. Depending on who you ask, experts believe 35% – 65% of the US workforce will continue to work remotely, permanently. Remote work was a trend that began well before the pandemic and will continue to be the preferred way to work for companies and employees alike. However, many companies were unprepared for the speed at which remote work became the preferred office structure. The pandemic forced businesses to adopt new tools and processes virtually overnight.
It is always said that security is never a one-size-fits-all solution. This is true not only because of the apparent infinite varieties of equipment in each individual organization, but also, and perhaps more importantly, the different ways that every organization views security. Some spend lots of time focusing on physical security, especially those with industrial control systems (ICS). Others are small organizations, where the primary concern is personal data theft.
Today's business world is more complex than ever, and many companies are reliant on private networks to keep their data safe and secure. But what happens when you need to access data from a remote location or connect to multiple separate private environments? In this guide, we'll show you how to create a Tines Tunnel so you can route traffic from Tines to a private API/network successfully. Read on for step-by-step instructions.
Every second, as your IT systems run every facet of your business, they are also creating data related to the health, performance and security of the systems themselves. This information, known as log data, is vital to SecOps, ITOps and DevOps teams as they seek to understand how the IT environment is functioning — and how secure those assets are.
The digital footprint of the modern organization is expanding at an unprecedented rate. The move to the cloud, Internet of Things (IoT), digital transformation, connected supply chain partners and related trends have led to an explosion of internet-facing assets. Cloud workloads, websites, user credentials, S3 buckets, SSL certificates, IoT, operational technology (OT), rogue IT devices, and more exist in the thousands across most organizations.
At CrowdStrike, we stop breaches. It’s a simple yet powerful promise to our customers, our partners and to the world. As thousands join us today in person at Fal.Con 2022 in Las Vegas, and thousands more watch remotely via livestream, it’s a promise that we want to reinforce and extend. As cyberattacks have grown more powerful and disruptive, the importance of stopping the breach has grown. Stopping the breach is about more than stopping a single attack.
Support for Microsoft SQL Server was added in our Teleport 9 release, along with support for Redis and MariaDB. In this post, we'll specifically be looking at Microsoft SQL Server and will cover how to connect to it remotely using Teleport. Before we get into the steps of accessing SQL Server with Teleport, let's briefly go over a few recommended security postures with SQL Server and how Teleport actually helps to implement them.
In cybersecurity, one thing is certain: the bad guys are relentless. They never stop working and scheming to find new ways to attack weaknesses in data security. Their objective is criminally simple: breach organizations to steal and monetize data. And they use every means possible to do it. On the other side are cybersecurity companies and the professionals who work for them. We never stop working to improve our products and services to protect our customers from those global threat actors.
