Cybersecurity incidents are the norm of the day. No organization has impunity. When a cybersecurity incident occurs, incident responders have to immediately respond to contain the incident and mitigate the damage. To this end, they have to execute the Incident Response Processes (IRP). Doing it manually is expensive and time-consuming and also less effective if your organization is facing too many incidents on a weekly or monthly basis.

A growing attack surface and the exponential rise of data has opened the floodgates for breaches, leading to increased scrutiny by regulatory agencies. It’s not surprising that in recent years, regulators have had to double down with compliance mandates that are more stringent and punitive than ever before.

HTTP request smuggling is increasingly exploited by hackers in the wild and in bug bounty programs. This post will explain the HTTP request smuggling attack with remediation tips. HTTP request smuggling is an attack technique that abuses how two HTTP devices send requests between each other (typically a front-end proxy or a HTTP-enabled firewall and a backend server) or chaining multiple servers together with different configurations.

Reverse shell is a way that attackers gain access to a victim’s system. In this article, you’ll learn how this attack works and how you can detect it using Falco, a CNCF project, as well as Sysdig Secure. Sometimes, an application vulnerability can be exploited in a way that allows an attacker to establish a reverse shell connection, which grants them interactive access to the system.

The main difference between a security information and event management (SIEM) solution and an intrusion detection system (IDS) is that SIEM tools allow users to take preventive actions against cyberattacks while IDS only detects and reports events. Security information and event management (SIEM) is an approach to cybersecurity combining: Note: the acronym SIEM is pronounced "sim" with a silent e.
