Security Misconfigurations: A Deep Dive

Managing configurations in a complex environment can be like playing a game of digital Jenga. Turning off one port to protect an application can undermine the service of a connected device. Writing an overly conservative firewall configuration can prevent remote workforce members from accessing an application that’s critical to getting their work done.

Guarding the game: securing digital playgrounds

Imagine needing to stop a playoff game because viewers were actively impacting the sport, helping players catch impossible passes or score points they never should have gotten. That’s the equivalent of what happened when an Apex Legends hack during the North American finals interrupted the tournament and raised cybersecurity concerns for everyone involved. With global esports a billion-dollar industry, and competitive video gaming in general worth much more than that, this has a serious impact.

Why Real-Time Analytics Are Vital to Your Security

Time is a luxury your SOC can’t afford to waste. To keep your SOC efficient and effective, real-time analytics are crucial. Modern security data platforms give your team this ability by not indexing data on ingest, which ensures that security data is available for immediate analysis and allows your SOC to react swiftly to threats. Here are some of the other reasons why real-time analytics help keep your organization secure.

NIST CSF V2: What's Hot and What's Not!

NIST is to the US government what The Watcher is to the Marvel universe. In theory, it should simply observe the world around it, but in reality, it responds to evolving threats through interference. Despite the buzz around the update to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), you might find it hard to say that any compliance falls under the category of “hot.”

Is Your SIEM Data Ingestion Keeping Pace?

The ability for your SIEM to ingest data at scale is critical, especially in a world where threats target a vast array of attack surfaces. Ensuring full visibility of all log data is paramount, and you need a SIEM that can ingest any event, in any format, to effectively hunt for threats. Remember, you can’t secure what you can’t see. Whether you’re taking a close look at your current solution or evaluating new potential vendors, here’s what to consider around SIEM data ingestion.

Falcon Next-Gen SIEM Demo

In a world of stealthy, fast-moving threats and ever-increasing log volumes, defenders need an edge that’s orders of magnitude faster, smarter, and more scalable than current approaches. Watch this video to see how to detect and stop the adversary Alpha Spider quickly with CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM. Seamlessly extend the capabilities of the world-leading CrowdStrike Falcon platform to all data sources while stopping breaches and slashing costs compared to siloed tools.

Secure data is superior data: A security-first approach to the DoD Data Strategy

The US Department of Defense (DoD) has vast reserves of data, and the key to warfighter advantage is leveraging relevant data as a strategic asset to gain battlespace operational advantage, accelerating operational multi-domain decision-making at echelon scale.

Modernizing financial services: A deep dive into Elastic Cloud on AWS for Observability, Security, and more

In the dynamic landscape of financial services, data is not just currency; it's the key to innovation and operational excellence. Data is constantly streamlining from devices, logins, transfers, transactions, and much more, and it’s bound to increase with an ongoing reliance on digital channels. This creates a massive opportunity and responsibility for financial institutions, as their customers (and regulators) demand more from banking providers.

DevSecOps in an AI world requires disruptive log economics

We’ve been talking about digital transformation for years (or even decades?), but the pace of evolution is now being catapulted forward by AI. This rapid change and innovation creates and relies upon exponential data sets. And while technology is rapidly evolving to manage and maintain these massive data sets, legacy pricing models based on data ingest volume are lagging behind, making it economically unsustainable.
