Cybersecurity middleware: abstraction layer for cybersecurity

Almost eight years ago, Christof Jungo, who was at the time head of security architecture and engineering at Swisscom, proposed the idea of cybersecurity middleware. Christof’s idea was that although it is easy to collect all security telemetry in one place, it is difficult to operationalize it for fast and efficient incident response. He proposed a concept of interchangeable and interoperable parts that can act as a middleware, a higher-level abstraction layer for security.

Developer Roll Up: March 2023

Spring is in the air and the team at LimaCharlie continues on its quest to change the way that cybersecurity tools and supporting infrastructure are delivered. Join us for this month’s live webinar where Matt Bromiley, our Lead Solutions engineer, will be discussing LimaCharlie's detection and response capabilities. In this live webinar, we will look at: This is part two of a multi-part education series (part 1 here), where we look at different ways to utilize the LimaCharlie platform.

Defend against insider threats with LimaCharlie

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) defines insider threat as “the potential for an insider to use their authorized access or understanding of an organization to harm that organization.” The nature of insider threats is fairly wide-ranging. Most of us in the security field will naturally think of insider threats in cybersecurity terms, but CISA’s definition includes things like espionage, terrorism, and workplace violence.

We recently launched the LimaCharlie Query console which makes the underlying LimaCharlie Query Language (LCQL) more accessible. Users can now easily operationalize the full year of telemetry retained by LimaCharlie, reducing or eliminating the need to send telemetry into 3rd party SIEM-like tools such as Splunk and ELK. It is an exciting new set of capabilities that opens a whole new world of possibilities.

Query data with greater flexibility using LimaCharlie Query Language (LCQL)

If you’ve been following along our journey, you know that LimaCharlie makes it easy and cost effective to get security data from any source, normalized into a single hub with the unique added benefit of running detection, automation, and response rules at wire speed. On top of being able to store all of your data within LimaCharlie, you get granular control and the ability to send data to any external destination.

LimaCharlie as a low-cost way to improve cyber resilience

Organizations know that they need to become more cyber resilient, and are asking MSSPs and enterprise security teams to help. But in a time of economic uncertainty and shrinking budgets, the goal of cyber resilience is often at odds with what management is prepared to invest. The good news is that LimaCharlie can be used to help security professionals improve cyber resilience—with a level of control and at a cost efficiency unparalleled industrywide.

A Guide to LimaCharlie's Microsoft Integrations

LimaCharlie has multiple integrations that offer security teams greater visibility into Microsoft Windows. If you’re familiar with LimaCharlie, you probably know about some of these already. But over the past few months, we’ve added quite a bit to our catalog of capabilities. For this reason, we wanted to put together an updated guide to our most important Microsoft integrations.
