Cloud Cryptomining: How It Works & How To Minimize Risk

Cryptomining is essential for creating new cryptocurrencies and functioning blockchain networks. However, the increased complexity of cryptomining drives the need for specialized, cost-effective infrastructure to mine cryptocurrencies. Enter the cloud: Cloud computing has become critical for cryptomining, making cloud cryptomining popular among miners. This article describes cloud cryptomining, its history, and the types of cloud cryptomining.

How to Complete Your LogScale Observability Strategy with Grafana

CrowdStrike Falcon® LogScale provides a full range of dashboarding and live query capabilities out of the box. Sometimes, however, you’ll work in an environment where there are other solutions alongside LogScale. For example, let’s say your operations team takes an observability approach that includes metrics scraped by Prometheus, tracing with Tempo and dashboard visualizations with Grafana.

Understanding the ISO 27000 Series Changes

David Bowie once sang, “ch-ch-ch-changes, turn and face the strange.” While the changes to ISO 27000-series may look strange, they’re primarily a configuration and modernization of the same standard you already know. The standard’s format looks entirely different, but most of your current controls will remain the same.

RSA Algorithm in Cryptography: Rivest Shamir Adleman Explained

RSA is a popular and secure cryptographic algorithm that encrypts and decrypts data. It provides a secure method for transmitting sensitive data over the Internet. While RSA has some vulnerabilities, it is still utilized for various applications, like digital signatures to authenticate the source of a message. This article describes RSA, how it works, and its major applications. It also explains the security vulnerabilities of RSA and how to mitigate them.

The Crucial Role of Log Management in Compliance

In today’s digital landscape, businesses face a multitude of regulatory requirements designed to safeguard sensitive data and protect individuals’ privacy. Compliance with regulations such as HIPAA, GLBA, CMMC, PCI, and others has become paramount, making it essential for organizations to have robust log management solutions in place.

Cyberattack Maps Explained: The Value & Limitations of Cyber Attack Maps

While most people understand that cybercrime is rising, it’s challenging to fathom just how widespread it is. In 2007, researchers found there was a cyberattack every 39 seconds. By 2022, those numbers seemed small and innocent in comparison: The sheer scale of attacks makes it a challenge to understand and find emerging threats or identify trends. Cyberattack maps provide visuals that clarify numbers that can be otherwise difficult to understand and bring to light the dark activities online.

Devo Platform 8.0 Release

2022 was a year of dramatic expansion for The Devo Platform. The enhancements of behavior analytics, workflow automation, and AI-driven threat detection have transformed the Devo Platform into a cloud-native, SIEM, UEBA, and SOAR solution. This gives security teams the visibility, high performance, and advanced analytics they need to respond quickly to threats and protect the business.

APTs in 2023: Characteristics, Phases & Defending Against Advanced Persistent Threats

When it comes to cyber threats, few are as feared as Advanced Persistent Threats. An Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) is a sophisticated, highly targeted and often long-term cyberattack orchestrated by well-funded and highly skilled threat actors. In some cases, they’re even backed by governments: North Korea, Russia and China have all been caught orchestrating APT attacks in the past two years. APTs differ from traditional cyber threats, which are more persistent, targeted, and sophisticated.
