Five Reasons to Prioritize Application Modernization on AWS

Today, every organization has significant investments in their overall tech stack, both financially and operationally, and as technology evolves, it is crucial that we keep pace to ensure success. For many organizations, legacy applications house some of their most mission critical applications, and replacing or retiring them would be incredibly costly, monetarily and in terms of productivity. With application modernization, businesses can now skip the hassle of completely rebuilding applications.

Active Cloud Risk: Why Static Checks Are Not Enough

How would you feel about your home security system if it only checked to see if your doors and windows were locked periodically? This security system would provide great visualizations of your house and how a criminal could get from one room to another, ultimately reaching one of your prized possessions, like a safe. However, it doesn’t have cameras on your doorbell or windows to alert you in real time when someone suspicious was approaching, or worse, trying to break into your house.

Making BYOD Work, Safely

Achieving an effective bring-your-own-device (BYOD) program has been aspirational for many IT organizations.

CrowdStrike Extends Identity Security Capabilities to Stop Attacks in the Cloud

Two recent Microsoft breaches underscore the growing problem of cloud identity attacks and why it’s critical to stop them. While Microsoft Active Directory (AD) remains a prime target for attackers, cloud identity stores such as Microsoft Entra ID are also a target of opportunity. The reason is simple: Threat actors increasingly seek to mimic legitimate users in the target system. They can just as easily abuse identities from cloud identity providers as they can in on-premises AD environments.

What does IAM PassRole do and How to Set it Up

95% of cloud security fails are due to internal slip-ups. One wrong password, one sloppy permission, and your sensitive data are out in the open. Thankfully, AWS gives you tools to fight back. IAM lets you control who does what, down to the finest detail. And IAM PassRole? It prevents sneaky permission grabs that put your data at risk.
