Organizations want to stay on top of cyber threats and detect them even before they occur. To do this, they need to detect threats and anomalies in their networks as quickly as possible. This is what we call threat hunting. It is a tool to help organizations constantly monitor their networks to detect and mitigate threats to keep them at a distance.

“It takes 18 days on average for organizations to recover from a ransomware attack” – IBM Cost of a Data Breach Report 2024. The clock starts ticking as soon as ransomware hits your network. Attackers no longer rely solely on opportunistic phishing; they now attack weak network defenses, move laterally across systems, and encrypt important data before demanding a ransom. Traditional security solutions sometimes notice breaches too late to adequately detect threats.

The long-anticipated CMMC rule (CFR 32) is now live, marking a crucial turning point for defense contractors. The Compliance Team at CISO Global recently passed our CMMC Audit and are well on the way to becoming a CMMC Certified Third-Party Assessor Organization, or C3PAO. Although CMMC’s arrival brings new challenges, there’s a practical solution that can make compliance more manageable: enclaves. Before we explore this approach, let’s understand where we are in the CMMC journey.

Torq took home the top prize at Check Point’s 2025 Innovation Sandbox Competition during their annual CPX conference in Las Vegas. Chris Coburn, Torq’s Sr. Director of Tech Alliances, faced off against 13 other companies to pitch Torq’s AI-native autonomous SOC to a panel of judges and voting audience.

Annual penetration testing serves as the baseline for cybersecurity best practice and can help businesses identify and address vulnerabilities before they turn into exploitable threats. While some businesses assume that once a year pen testing is sufficient, it’s worth understanding that it is a minimum requirement rather than a comprehensive security strategy.

DDI Central has officially launched its latest version, 5.1 (Service Pack 5001), bringing a powerhouse of automation, real-time insights, security, and efficiency to DNS, DHCP, and IPAM (DDI) management. Packed with features and enhancements such as advanced REST APIs, WebSocket-based real-time collaboration, enhanced analytics, and intuitive tools, this update is designed to streamline network operations, enhance visibility, and drive network performance like never before.

The line between Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) has been blurring for years and what once were two distinct realms — IT managing data and networks, and OT controlling physical processes on the production floor — are now converging to drive smarter, more efficient manufacturing.

Businesses must manage IT operations and cybersecurity in the day-to-day and ever-evolving digital world, which is becoming more and more complicated. Cyber threats, system warnings, and the increasing amount of data are too much for traditional IT management techniques to handle. This is where artificial intelligence for IT operations changes the game.

Cyber threats are changing at an alarming rate in today's digital world. Because of this, cybersecurity is a major concern for companies of all kinds. However, it might be expensive and resource-intensive to have an internal security staff. Additionally, the constantly shifting threat scenario makes it difficult. Here's when MSSP cyber security is useful. A Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP) provides quick incident response, ongoing monitoring, and professional threat detection outsourcing.
