A virtual local area network (VLAN) is the network segmentation method where administrators can divide one large network into smaller sections. This differs from physical segmentation, as it doesn’t require any hardware like routers, switches, and firewalls. Network resources of the organization can be virtually divided and monitored, which helps simplify management.

External attack surface management (EASM) is the continuous exercise of managing cybersecurity risks associated with an organization’s external-facing digital assets. The process includes monitoring, identifying, reducing, and mitigating risks present across an organization’s external attack surface.

Advanced security technologies make it possible to detect, analyze, and respond to incidents with impressive precision. Yet even the best tools can’t bridge the gaps created by disjointed responsibilities, siloed workflows, and competing priorities. This lack of cohesion weakens your security posture and increases exposure to sophisticated attacks that thrive on disorganization. 41% of organizations struggle to manage cybersecurity collaboratively.

Cybersecurity authorities continuously grapple with the challenges posed by sophisticated cyberattacks. Palo Alto Networks has lately preached a critical denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability in its PAN-OS software. Tracked as CVE-2024-3393, this critical vulnerability (CVSS score: 8.7) poses serious risks to enterprises relying on PAN-OS and Prisma Access for their cybersecurity infrastructure.

PCI DSS 4 Compliance requires a clear understanding of the latest requirements, particularly Requirement 6.4.3 and 11.6.1, which emphasize the importance of JavaScript monitoring for maintaining secure payment environments. For AppSec, Infosec, or ISA/QSA professionals, staying on top of PCI DSS 4.0.1 can feel overwhelming, but protecting payment card data leaves no room for errors.
