It seems like every other day; we hear about another company that has been hacked and its customers’ personal data compromised. In the wake of these incidents, it’s more important than ever for businesses to take steps to protect themselves from cyber-attacks. One way to do this is by implementing a network monitoring and security monitoring solution.

Data privacy rules have never been crucial for organisations to follow until the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) enforcement. This blog is divided into two sections.

Throughout the pandemic, the increasing number of security vulnerabilities affecting major products and services reached alarming levels, according to our analysis of NIST’s (National Institute of Standards and Technology) National Vulnerability Database data.

Passwords are an easy way to implement an authentication mechanism in which the user is asked to enter a string of characters (that he had chosen) to log in to his accounts. We will cover brute force attacks, types and examples in this blog article.

There’s no doubt that mobile devices have become an integral part of our lives. We use them to stay connected with friends and family, get directions, check the news, and more.

Lateral movement refers to the techniques that a cyber attacker uses. Once getting access to a corporate network, the attackers don’t stop there. They move around throughout the entire network, owning more computers and user accounts while exfiltrating data at the same time. They escalate their privileges to gain access to higher permissions and eventually access more confidential, critical and sensitive data.

Due to the rapid increase in off-premises devices, endpoints have become more vulnerable to cyber-attacks. The evolution of endpoint devices requires similar paced evolution in the security solutions to ensure that attackers do not exploit them.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) demands the implementation of numerous procedures and processes. A significant portion of this effort will be reflected in your GDPR-compliant Privacy Policy. However, a lot is going on behind the scenes.

Every other day, a new cybersecurity breach compromising common or 0-day vulnerability is reported.
