SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) is a network architecture that unifies network and security solutions into a cloud-based service to enhance accessibility, efficiency, and cybersecurity. The concept of SASE was introduced in Gartner's 2019 report 'The Future of Network Security Is in the Cloud'. The concept emerged from organizations' increasing demand for reliable access across transforming network approaches.
It’s always important to take a pause to evaluate your software security – and what better time to do that than during Cybersecurity Awareness Month? To help get you thinking, we’ve compiled a list of cybersecurity trends that are happening now and will likely continue throughout the next several years. 1. Ubiquitous Connectivity: We are quickly moving to a world where everyone and everything is connected. Most software is internet-connected, as are most devices.
Chris Wysopal, Veracode Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder, recently sat down to discuss the open source supply chain attack on the popular npm repository. Below is the transcript and corresponding video of his reaction. Just a few days ago, we saw a classic open source supply chain attack where someone modified a JavaScript library, UA-Parser-JS, which is in the npm repository.
We’re excited to share several recent user experience improvements we’ve made across the platform, including multivariate anomaly detection and other new features aimed at improving content governance. Continue reading to learn about some of our top product releases for October.
Security analytics has become an increasingly popular field as more and more organizations take a different tact to cybersecurity. Historically, IT teams focused on prevention and protection, but today’s priority is detection. Hackers tend to use a wide range of ever-changing tools to exploit vulnerabilities. It can feel like whack-a-mole to constantly try to defend against evolving threats.
It’s a sure sign that year-end is fast approaching when stores start to display their holiday merchandise and decorations before Hallowe’en is even over. As you start planning for a successful 2022, and focus on payment security and frictionless customer experience, consider the global financial, regulatory and economic factors that will impact your business.
Have you been to the hospital lately? If so, you’ve probably been attached to at least one medical device with at least some sort of internet access. According to Cisco, the average hospital room has, on average, 15-20 connected devices, with an average of 6.2 cybersecurity vulnerabilities between them.
Enterprises and small businesses alike are facing challenges that impact their ability to maintain adequate cybersecurity. Budget constraints and limited staff are just a couple of reasons why businesses have become more susceptible to cyberattacks. Hackers are becoming smarter, and the tools that teams deploy are growing in number, leading to fragmentation and increased vulnerabilities.
If you ask the question “who is responsible for a company’s cybersecurity,” the answer you’ll most likely hear is no longer the CTO, or the IT department, but instead the CEO. In fact, Gartner believes that 75% of CEOs will be held personally liable for cyber and physical breaches by 2024. That means there’s no more passing the buck on this complex issue.
Risk management of code is an important and often overlooked development function that you need to pay attention to. You may think that this is not a developer’s problem, however developers should not write code that unduly adds to technical debt, hence the need to manage risk. The primary motivation for risk management is to prevent error or failure. Do not seek to eliminate failure, seek to minimise it, to manage the risk of failure.
