As we've covered before, SIEMs are an expensive tool. The average enterprise-level SIEM deployment costs over £15 million a year, and operating a small, 100 to 1000-seat SIEM will still run up bills of over £10k monthly. SIEMs create spiralling costs that eat security budgets. Without a skilled team operating them, they can also make organisations less secure despite receiving more information about their digital estates. But where do these SIEM costs come from?

Containers are integral to modern application development portability, resource efficiency, and ease of deployment. But there is a flip side to these benefits. Unlike traditional applications, containers bundle everything needed to run, making them a scattered setup for hidden security issues. 54% of container images in Docker Hub were found to contain sensitive information that could lead to unauthorized access, data breaches, or identity theft.

The Critical Entities Resilience (CER) Directive is a new initiative in the EU that aims to ensure that critical entities providing essential services are effectively managing their network and information security. The CER Directive is part of the EU’s latest effort to build stronger cyber resilience across Europe, alongside NIS2 and the EU Cyber Resilience Act.

Learn how businesses can strengthen their M365 data security with cost-effective backup and recovery solutions. According to Morgan Lewis, in 2023, the average cost of a data breach reached $4.45 million. This is 2.25% higher than the statistics in 2022. These numbers are a clear indication of why data security solutions are a must for enterprises. Protecting M365 data is crucial because threats like ransomware, data breaches, and insider risks can cause serious problems for companies.

Don't let zombies haunt your security posture.

Some Apple users have reported phishing attacks using the password reset feature.

Are most network detection and response tools missing something? We think so. Network detection and response (NDR) is an incredible technology. With it, you can analyse network packets for malicious behaviour, spot insider threats, and even find connected devices you don’t own. However, if you want to implement NDR in your environment, you typically need to install proprietary hardware or run your NDR on a dedicated server.

The #1 global managed detection and response (MDR) provider and pioneer continues to dominate. Today, CrowdStrike was named a Leader in the 2024 IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Managed Detection and Response 2024 Vendor Assessment1 among the 19 vendors evaluated in the report. CrowdStrike was also recently named a Leader in Frost & Sullivan’s 2024 Frost Radar: Managed Detection and Response. The global demand for MDR continues to surge as businesses face a harsh reality.

Identity theft is one of the things you never expect to happen to you until it does. The scariest part is not the theft itself but what follows after. Victims of identity theft don't often discover their financial, reputational, and bureaucratic lives are destroyed until long after the crime was committed. This delay makes it extremely difficult for authorities to investigate identity theft cases.

In today’s interconnected world, the Internet of Things (IoT) plays a crucial role in various sectors, from healthcare and transportation to energy and critical infrastructure. However, with the increasing reliance on IoT devices comes the heightened risk of cybersecurity threats. To address these challenges and enhance cybersecurity measures across the European Union (EU), the NIS 2 Directive (Directive (EU) 2022/2555) was introduced.
