CI/CD pipeline attacks: A growing threat to enterprise security

CI/CD pipeline attacks are a growing threat to enterprise security. In this article, we’ll provide an overview of CI/CD for non-developers, discuss the cybersecurity issues involved, and offer some recommendations for developers, companies, and security teams.

June Developer Roll Up

The team at LimaCharlie continues on its mission to develop the concept of Security Infrastructure as a Service. We added three new team members during the month of June with more coming! We also hosted a webinar on securing your CI/CD pipeline built around some new capabilities we added which allow for the ingestion and monitoring of GitHub audit logs. You can watch a recording of that webinar here: SecDevOps & LimaCharlie - Automating and auditing of GitHub access

Is cybersecurity sales culture bad for cybersecurity?

The market for cybersecurity solutions is changing, but the way vendors sell security products seems stuck in the past. There’s a lot that can be said about this, but here we want to raise an issue that isn’t talked about enough: Is cybersecurity sales culture, itself, bad for cybersecurity?

Reducing Splunk spend with LimaCharlie

Endpoints as well as applications such as AWS, Google Cloud, Office 365, 1Password, Slack, and thousands of others produce vast amounts of data. The volume of security data is growing, and this growth will continue for the foreseeable future. This, in turn, leads to several challenges: To solve these problems, many companies have adopted Splunk as their SIEM (security information and event management) platform.

Announcing Cybersecurity Infrastructure Grants

At LimaCharlie, we believe that for the cybersecurity industry to innovate, people need cost-effective access to security infrastructure. In the same way that the emergence of cloud computing has enabled small teams to access the computing power that was previously only available to large enterprises, access to scalable cybersecurity infrastructure will enable more security professionals to build the future they believe in.

May Developer Roll Up

In case you missed the news, LimaCharlie has raised 5.45 million dollars in an oversubscribed seed round led by Susa Ventures, with participation from Xerox Ventures, CoFound Partners, Long Journey Ventures, Sands Capital, StoneMill Ventures, as well as existing investor, Lytical Ventures. The money is going to be used to expand engineering and to build out our go-to-market strategy.

April Developer Roll Up

The months continue to peel off of the calendar and Spring is in the air. As usual, the team at LimaCharlie has been busy pushing the state of cybersecurity forward. In the last month, we have fixed some bugs, brought real-time detections into the web application, and launched a new sensor type. On May 19th at 10.00 AM PST join us as we present a webinar on how to reduce security tooling spend by augmenting Splunk and other high-cost data solutions with LimaCharlie.

Challenges and solutions for securing distributed, remote and hybrid workforces

The world has changed. The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically increased the number of teams that are working with a remote and distributed model. This change is a welcome acceleration of what many feel would have been the eventual outcome of our digital future. With this new model comes a new and changing set of security challenges.
