Cybersecurity isn’t just about the computer hardware, software, and networking technicalities that it pertains to. It is also about how human beings behave with computer technology–and what sort of cyber risks that behavior can create. Culture influences behavior, and the security culture of your company can have an immense effect on your cybersecurity. I’ll explain why.

Today, I’m excited to share that we have released AlienApp for Box, a new security integration between AT&T Cybersecurity and Box, a leader in cloud content management. This new feature within USM Anywhere takes advantage of Box's granular logging capabilities and powerful APIs to add an additional layer of security for Box Enterprise customers that enables you to monitor your Box environments for potential threats and malicious activities.

Many security breaches take place when attackers gain access to Internet-facing applications by using compromised credentials. As an added layer of security against leaked credentials, organizations have been implementing multi-factor authentication (MFA) mechanisms to verify the identity of users connecting to critical online assets.

There are many things within Information security that pundits have been claiming are dead, or should be killed by fire - passwords are usually found at the centre of such debates. But this isn’t a post about passwords, it’s a post about honesty, and trust. But let’s first take a look at the other side of the coin.

As technological solutions to cybercrime become increasingly advanced, able to preempt attacks and weed out vulnerabilities before they’re widely known, attackers also become more adept at cloaking their presence and concealing their intent. The targets of attacks also change with the times.

Keeping an organization’s IT assets secure in this day and age is a challenge. The sands of the information security landscape are constantly shifting, and it can be difficult for practitioners to find solid footing; to identify those initiatives that will net the greatest return on security spend. Each day seems to bring another emerging concern in the threat landscape.

They say that bad things always come in threes. The adage may testify to little but the popularity of superstition, but for security executives today, this notion regrettably passes muster. Crime, complexity and cost are three foes that every CISO must face, and while most companies think crime is the enemy, in many cases it is the latter two heads of this “cyber-cerberus” that deliver the most certain bite.

Do you docker? Without a doubt, containers are one of the hottest concepts in application delivery and security these days. And that’s a very good thing. Containers have tremendous advantages over the way we have done things in the past. But how should containers influence a threat detection and response strategy? Do I need a larger “container security” strategy to get started deploying my apps using container architectures?

Your reputation is one of the most powerful assets you can have as a successful businessperson. Having a reputation for honesty and quality can be the key to locking down major clients or building a standing in a fledgling market. Alternatively, having a poor reputation can be detrimental to the point of completely running you out of business.

Nothing gets the AppSec / InfoSec community abuzz quite like a good old 0-day vulnerability. I mean, what’s not to love here? These vulnerabilities involve the thrill of adversaries knowing something we don’t, giving them a path to sail through our defenses to break into that sweet data inside. They are the James Bond of the security space — suave, sexy, and deadly.
