Last year brought us many challenges in the cybersecurity aspect. The malicious actors become more sophisticated, and the breaches are more aggressive. The role of cybersecurity solutions has become more apparent. LogSentinel understood the need for cybersecurity solutions for all types of organizations. SMEs are a regular target for hackers due to the lack of cybersecurity specialists and tools that can manage the security of the organization.

Cyberattacks have intensified over the last few years as threat actors are always improvising their game plan to carry out new and sophisticated methods. Concepts like Ransomware as a Service have made it easy for small threat groups to leverage weaponized services with devastating results for organizations. This highlights how traditional security systems and approaches are no longer able to keep up with the ever-evolving threat landscape.

Firewalls are the first line of defense in any network. Firewalls can be software or appliances, and organizations can configure them up to allow or disallow some or all IP traffic, or to verify specific traffic types based on rules that use deep packet inspection. For maximum effectiveness, it’s critical to monitor the operation of your firewalls to spot threats and misconfiguration.
