Financial institutions, particularly regional banks and credit unions, are facing challenges both in terms of safeguarding data of their customers and meeting data security compliance standards. Information technology (IT) teams in these institutions are stretched thin. They struggle with needing to meet compliance obligations while simultaneously combatting cyberthreats.

Government agencies are faced with the complexity of what needs to be done to meet the Executive Order 14028 requirements. This whitepaper provides guidance on how to comply with the Executive Order and how it applies to securing critical databases.

Cloud adoption remains a key driver for digital transformation and growth for today's businesses, helping them deliver applications and services to customers with the speed and scalability that only the cloud can provide. Enabling them to do so safely is a critical objective for any enterprise IT security team.

Network segmentation has been around for a while and is one of the core elements in the NIST SP 800-207 Zero Trust framework. Although network segmentation reduces the attack surface, this strategy does not protect against adversary techniques and tactics in the identity phases in the kill chain. The method of segmentation that provides the most risk reduction, at reduced cost and operational complexity, is identity segmentation.

The drive to increase productivity and reduce costs in manufacturing environments has led to an exponential increase in the adoption of automation on plant floors, also known as Industry 4.0. If your organization has integrated its computation, networking and physical processes, this whitepaper will explain how deploying network monitoring technology will bring tremendous value to both your IT and OT teams.

The diverse and complex nature of IIoT and OT security use cases can make the technology selection difficult, and unfortunately, copying IT security practices and technology will not result in a secure OT environment. To achieve lasting success with OT cybersecurity investments, managers must ask prescriptive questions during the technology procurement process. In this eBook, we discuss the seven questions recommended by Gartner for SRM leaders to ask during their OT security technology selection and how Forescout answers them.

Wondering what the underground world of cybercrime looks like following after a year of unprecedented events? Bad actors capitalize on these events - from political unrest and economic instability to changing workforce dynamics and ongoing public health concerns - putting organizations of all sizes and across all industries at increased risk. Learning more about these new and innovative exploits, which take advantage of unprecedented global circumstances, allows you to make more informed decisions regarding your security posture.

Ransomware is one of the most talked about and publicized security threats in the modern era. What started as a few high-profile attacks caused by a handful of malware variants has developed into a virulent threat landscape in which increasingly unskilled attackers are able to execute highly effective ransomware campaigns against organizations of all sizes and levels of complexity. Small-to-midsize businesses disproportionately fall victim to ransomware, as they often lack the technical skills and tools needed to prevent infection.
