At Teleport, we advocate SSH certificates over SSH keys and passwords as the best authentication method for SSH. Nothing beats the security and operational flexibility of using certificate-based authentication for a large fleet of SSH servers running on dynamic infrastructure. But in practice, certificate-based authentication is far from the de facto authentication method, and sometimes we may need to use SSH keys.
The combination of poor cybersecurity practices, sensitive data storage, and a desperation to preserve business continuity at all costs, makes the healthcare industry a prime target for cybercriminals - an inevitability that was further exacerbated by the pandemic. To support the relevance of healthcare cybersecurity programs within the current cyberattack climate, the 4 biggest cybersecurity challenges in the healthcare industry are listed below.
BlackCat (also known as ALPHV) is a relatively new ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation, which has been aggressively recruiting affiliates from other ransomware groups and targeting organisations worldwide.
With two new U.S. State privacy laws, new Standard Contractual Clauses out of the EU, more GDPR-style laws passed around the globe, and record data protection fines, 2021 provided plenty of fodder for an end-of-year review.
The impact of AI on cybersecurity continues to be a hot topic of discussion within the information security industry. Cyber-threats are rapidly increasing in volume. In part, this is because the attack surface for cybercriminals is huge, and it continues to grow and evolve at a lightning pace. Every year billions of cyber-attacks are launched with a wide variety of motives, and new threats with more sophisticated tactics or methods are trialed to bypass existing security systems.
Your Microsoft 365 data is a prime target for ransomware. Attackers know that Microsoft 365 lives directly in the path of business-critical operations now more than ever. As highlighted by Mandiant – one of the industry's leading cyber security firms – this translates to “targeted threat groups investing a lot of time and money into understanding Office 365 and understanding how to attack it.”
LimaCharlie is continuously expanding the list of difficult problems it solves for security, incident response, cloud engineering and DevSecOps teams across a broad range of customers. Along with an advanced EDR, log aggregation, automations engine, software-defined networking, artifact ingestion, and an operational console for security teams, LimaCharlie now offers the ability to bring in external logs and telemetry from any source.
You have to capture everything to investigate security issues thoroughly, right? More often than not, data that at one time was labeled irrelevant and thrown away is found to be the missing piece of the puzzle when investigating a malicious attacker or the source of an information leak. So, you need to capture every network packet.
Picture this. You’re an administrator in charge of providing basic amenities and day-to-day needs across 1,000 beds in an urban multispecialty hospital. One fine morning, you notice that all the patients’ bedside monitoring systems (the computer-like devices that display patient vitals like heartbeat and blood pressure) have stopped functioning, leaving doctors and nurses in the dark.
This blog was written by an independent guest blogger. Ambitious information security experts serve as a critical part of cyber risk management. The corporation is responsible for structuring IT and information security activities to protect its data resources, such as hardware, software, and procedures. To stay competitive, enterprises must design and establish secure environments that retain confidentiality and privacy while also ensuring the integrity of corporate information.
