In this digital era, businesses are more likely to be attacked online by scams like phishing and viruses like ransomware. When a breach happens, it's important to respond quickly and effectively to limit the damage, keep the business running, and protect private data. Specialized cybersecurity companies offer incident response services that give businesses the knowledge and tools they need to handle security incidents quickly and effectively.

In this landscape, organizations need a multi-faceted approach that includes prevention, detection, and response capabilities. A warranty tied to a comprehensive security solution supports this approach, providing both technological protection and financial assurance.

ESXi is usually provided with the default configuration that includes a set of standard drivers and software tools for a specific version. This set of tools and drivers differs from one ESXi version to another. When running ESXi hosts, you may need to install additional drivers for the installed hardware, install software, or update software components or drivers. In this case, installing VIB files on ESXi is what you need.

Snapshots are usually used to create image-based VM backups. Storage snapshots are an alternative to the usual VM snapshots used, and they have certain advantages in terms of backup performance and impact on production environments. In this blog post, we explain VMware virtual machine backup from HPE snapshots to achieve high efficiency in environments with heavily loaded storage, including the working principle and configuration basics.

VM migration from VMware to Proxmox can be necessary whether an organization is diversifying its infrastructure or completely moving its production workloads to a new platform. There are two main methods to migrate virtual machines from VMware ESXi hosts to Proxmox VE hosts: manually and with special tools. This blog post provides a detailed step-by-step tutorial for the successful migration of virtual machines to Proxmox VE using the 2 methods.

The Security of Critical Infrastructure (SOCI) Act in Australia mandates that organizations operating within critical infrastructure sectors implement robust cybersecurity measures to protect against an increasingly diverse and sophisticated range of cyber threats. These sectors, which include energy, water, communications, healthcare, transport, and other essential services, are vital to national security, public safety, and economic stability.

In April this year, the CISA Secure By Design initiative turned one. The initiative calls for the public and private sectors to work together to challenge and encourage software manufacturing companies to adopt principles to ensure their software is developed and produced as securely as possible. The initiative tracks seven goals that software manufacturers can pledge to develop and transparently track progress towards those goals.

This month, the Vanta team launched new features to help you: ‍

In the ever-evolving field of information security, curiosity and continuous learning drive innovation. This blog series is tailored for those deeply engaged in experimental projects, leveraging Rust's capabilities to push the boundaries of what's possible. The focus on Rust, after exploring various programming languages, has led to the creation of several cutting-edge projects that are highlighted in this report.

On July 19, 2024, CrowdStrike released configuration updates for its Windows sensor, aiming to enhance security and performance. Unfortunately, this update inadvertently led to widespread downtime, manifesting as Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) on millions of machines worldwide. The BSOD, a critical system error screen, halts all operations, rendering affected systems inoperable until resolved.
