This video goes over the steps to continuously improve your cybersecurity.

Security training can be an effective protection and detection measure, or just another training module for an employee to ignore and click through. Even if an organization is using pre-packaged security awareness training products, they can make the training more effective by customizing it to the organization. Here are some components you may consider when customizing your security program.

Why is security awareness important when we have all of these appliances and software and hardware to protect us? Well, ultimately, attacks come down to a set of human eyes and a keyboard, and a mouse. And if a user is well educated and if they're trained well and they're astute, they can help prevent a security incident from ever happening or detect it.

Response and recovery plans are crucial to reduce the severity and time of security incidents. But many organizations aren’t sure where to start in building their plans. Here are three tips for building a better recovery plan. Subscribe to our channel to get more useful content to help you protect your organization.

It’s critical to have recovery plans like business continuity, disaster recovery, and incident response plans. However, where many organizations fall short is in keeping these plans evergreen. An incident can blindside an organization when they discover its response plan no longer reflects the environment they need to protect. So how can your organization keep its recovery plans accurate and up to date?

Incident response is a structured process organizations use to identify and deal with cybersecurity incidents. Response includes several stages, including preparation for incidents, detection and analysis of a security incident, containment, eradication, and full recovery, and post-incident analysis and learning. What are some tips for making effective plans? Watch this episode of Sedara's Whiteboard Series to find out.

In this episode of the Sedara Cybersecurity Whiteboard Series, our Lead Pentester Nick Aures talks about what to look for in a quality pentest. Nick breaks the talk down into 4 key takeaways: Take a look, and we hope it’s helpful. What Should I Look for in a Quality Penetration Test? Penetration testing is a fundamental part of validating the security measures you’ve taken and showing they are effective.

What are some of the methods phishers use to compromise organizations? In this video, Nick goes over the common methods phishers use to gain information: Phishing is most insidious when it uses a combination of techniques. It can even overcome sophisticated security measures like Multifactor Authentication (MFA) – for example, if an attacker manages to steal a password through email, then calls the user pretending to be a technician asking them to approve an authenticator popup on their phone.

Social engineering, including phishing, is one of the best opportunities for an attacker to enter a well-secured network. Knowing what data is at risk is an important part of any security strategy. What data or systems of value does your organization have access to? That’s what an attacker will try to hijack. Sedara can help protect your organization against social engineering attacks and more.

Many organizations focus on technological controls to protect their assets. But that’s only part of the story! Smart attackers use social engineering to achieve their goals in compromising networks and data. In a social engineering attack vector, attackers lie or present deceptive fronts to convince people to divulge information or take some action that allows the attackers access.
