Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) helps organizations in collecting, correlating, and analyzing log data from a wide range of systems connected to their IT infrastructure. Based on the results, a SIEM solution assists an organization in detecting threats and suspicious activity on their IT infrastructure. If you are already using a SIEM platform such as Logsign, you would know the importance of SIEM reports.
Cloud security is the implementation of security controls to protect confidential information stored in cloud environments and reduce the risk of data breaches. Effective cloud security involves regularly assessing and hardening defences, ensuring broad threat visibility and rapidly responding to threats.
A critical CVSS:10 vulnerability (CVE-2020-1472) in the Microsoft Netlogon process was patched in the August patch cycle, but details were not made public until earlier this week (14th September).
The recent disclosure of CVE-2020-1472 vulnerability by Microsoft showcases the need for tools that allow defenders to quickly replicate published exploit code, register attack data, and create signatures or other mitigations against released exploits with a high likelihood of exploitation against popular infrastructure or operating systems.
Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks are a favorite method for attackers to disrupt or debilitate firewalls, online services, and websites by overwhelming systems with malicious traffic or transaction requests. DDoS attackers accomplish this by coordinating an army of compromised machines, or 'bots', into a network of devices they control from a remote location that focus a stream of activity toward a single target.
Our Crowdsource ethical hacker community has been busy sending us security updates, including 0-day research. For continuous coverage, we push out major Detectify security updates every two weeks, keeping our tool up-to-date with new findings, features and improvements sourced from our security researchers. Due to confidentially agreements, we cannot publicize all security update releases here but they are immediately added to our scanner and available to all users.
Your open source usage is out of control. Sure, it’s helping you develop your product faster and getting new releases out the door in days instead of months, but now your code base is made up of 60% or more open source components. And that percentage is only growing. The application layer continues to be the most attacked, so you know you need to stay on top of vulnerabilities.
Hybrid cloud is an increasingly popular infrastructure option for companies in industries from game development to finance. But what is it, and what are the most effective hybrid cloud security practices for protecting your sensitive and regulated data?
When it comes to security, practitioners have to keep a lot they need to keep top of mind. The Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model provides the fundamentals needed to organize both technical issues and threats within a networking stack. Although information security is shifting to a cloud-first world, the OSI model still continues to prove its relevance. We’ll cover four key reasons why the OSI model still matters and how you can operationalize it in today’s world.
