File integrity monitoring (FIM) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) are two cybersecurity solutions that are often foundational aspects of organizations’ security strategies. EDR is implemented in order to stop known and unknown threats at endpoints, often with advanced functions such as behavioral monitoring and analysis, antivirus protection, and threat response capabilities.

New data shows that despite the massive evolution of the cybercrime economy, threat actors are sticking with the basics in social engineering attacks, with a goal at stealing data. I probably could have called this purely based on all the articles I’ve written (and all the articles I’ve read that never made it here). But when it comes to protecting your organization from social engineering, stick to the basics.

SenseOn achieves 99% protection rate and 0 false positives in the latest AV-Comparatives Real-World Protection Test False positive alerts in security operations pose a significant risk by diverting critical resources and attention away from genuine threats. These incorrect alarms, which signal threats where none exist, can lead to wasted time, reduced efficiency, and increased costs as security teams investigate and address these non-issues.

During a very busy RSA Conference, Forward Networks was named a market leader in vulnerability assessment, remediation, and management at the 12th annual Global Infosec Awards hosted by Cyber Defense Magazine. This is the second consecutive year that Forward Networks has taken top honors in security.

The Egnyte platform houses a lot of data. To enable users to make the most of this asset, we need to help them efficiently retrieve information. Traditional search interfaces do a decent job of retrieving information directly related to query keywords, often presenting results in a list format without additional interpretation or synthesis.

Time is of the essence when it comes to protecting your data, and often, teams are sifting through hundreds or thousands of alerts to try to pinpoint truly malicious user behavior. Manual triage and response takes up valuable resources, so machine learning can help busy teams prioritize what to tackle first and determine what warrants further investigation.

It’s a wrap! RSA 2024 brought together cybersecurity experts, industry leaders, and innovators to delve into critical topics defining the future of digital security. One of the key themes that garnered significant attention at RSA 2024 was software supply chain security.

It has always been clear, even before the Colonial Pipeline attack, that the energy sector is a prime target for not only criminal threat groups, but also nation-state actors. After all, halting fuel and energy supplies can quickly bring a region to a halt and thus require the highest level of cyber and physical security possible.

Taking a proactive approach to cybersecurity is essential for safeguarding sensitive data and systems from potential threats. By adopting an offensive security strategy, organizations can identify and mitigate vulnerabilities and risks before they are exploited by malicious actors.

More enterprise business leaders are beginning to understand that cybersecurity risk equates to business risk—and getting a clearer sense of the impact that cyber exposures can have on the bottom line. Consider the MGM Resorts and Clorox Company cybersecurity incidents that occurred last year. Both suffered considerable attacks, reportedly led by the Scattered Spider cybercriminal group, causing widespread business disruption and substantial financial losses.
