RedLine Stealer is a malware strain designed to steal sensitive information from compromised systems. It is typically distributed through phishing emails, social engineering tactics, and malicious URL links.

IoCs are forensic data threat intelligence teams use to confirm cyberattack occurrences and build cyber-defense strategies. IoCs are critical in identifying system vulnerabilities, and determining how a cyber-crime was executed. While the relevance of IoCs cannot be downplayed in the cyber security space, they are not all that’s needed in building an effective cyber-defense strategy.

The complex and growing cyber threats that impact business cybersecurity require the right intelligence. Cybercrime costs are expected to: Want proof? Cyberattacks increased by 7% globally in the first quarter of 2023 alone. Organizations need a proactive way to prevent and mitigate these threats. Enter Security Operations. Security Operations is crucial in helping organizations find, prevent and mitigate cyber threats.

The term Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTP) describes the behavior of a threat actor and a structured framework for executing a cyberattack. The actors can range from hacktivists and hobbyist hackers to autonomous cybercriminals, underground rings and state-sponsored adversaries. By understanding the Tactics, Techniques and Procedures involved in a cyberattack kill chain, businesses can discover, evaluate and respond to security threats with a proactive approach. Let’s take a look.

Data anonymization is becoming an increasingly prominent and important concept for businesses of all sizes. Whether it’s to protect customer data or satisfy regulatory requirements, data privacy remains a top priority for organizations worldwide.

In our last RBA blog post, we introduced the Splunk RBA journey and how to plan for a successful implementation. In this post, we dive deeper into the four levels of this journey. One of the things I've discovered in working with Splunk customers is that there is a big difference between an initial trial of RBA and using it effectively in a production environment.

Humans have been interacting with a version of AI through voice assistants, facial recognition software and phone photo apps for years. AI’s progress in the last few months, however, has been nothing less than mind-blowing. With its new enhanced capabilities, a meteoric rise in AI’s popularity ensued, and the recent new generative AI services are quickly becoming essential tools for users of all kinds.

The Security Operations Center (SOC) is the central unit that manages the overall security posture of any organization. Knowing how your SOC is performing is crucial, so security teams can measure the strength of their operations. This article describes SOC metrics, including their importance, common SOC metrics, and the steps SOC teams can take to improve them.

Welcome to the third entry in our introduction to the PEAK Threat Hunting Framework! Taking our detective theme to the next level, imagine a tough case where you need to call in a specialized investigator (even Sherlock depended on Watson from time to time!). For these unique cases, we can use algorithmically-driven approaches called Model-Assisted Threat Hunting (M-ATH). In this post, we’ll look at M-ATH in detail.

In the complex world of Internet security, TLS encryption reigns. The powers behind the throne are the Certificate Authorities (CAs) that play a crucial role in verifying websites' identities and regulating the trust we place in those sites. However, understanding the trustworthiness of the CAs themselves can be challenging.
