Among the most important aspects of building a new digital economy are protecting sensitive digital "boxes" of data, which takes a special kind of work to do well. Cyber security managed services have emerged as a practical solution to this issue, equipped with comprehensive defense mechanisms with professionals' strategies and the latest technologies. Threats evolve, and businesses cannot rely on old security methods anymore.

More than ever, business growth is reliant on proving security and compliance. According to Vanta’s State of Trust Report, nearly two-thirds (65%) of organizations say that customers, investors, and buyers require proof of compliance. ‍ GRC and security teams are on the frontlines managing these requests. Yet these teams are too often under-resourced and burdened with processes and systems that waste their time.

Security Operations Center (SOC) analysts have it rough. Modern security tools generate an extraordinary number of alerts, attackers are more sophisticated than ever, and IT infrastructures are unprecedentedly complex. As a result, analysts are overwhelmed with workload and alerts, making it near-impossible to make intelligent, informed decisions. Fortunately, artificial intelligence (AI) is helping to ease the strain. Let’s look at how.

Knowing who has credentials, how those credentials are granted, and how they are being used is the foundation of any secure environment. It begins with user accounts and the credentials they use. Maintaining a thorough inventory of all accounts and verifying any changes to those accounts as authorized and intentional vs unintended is paramount to establishing a secure environment, and this includes service accounts.

Recently, I looked at Microsoft’s assigned CVSS v3.1 scores for Patch Tuesday vulnerabilities alongside the Microsoft assigned severity ratings. I wanted to revisit these numbers and see just how closely CVSS aligns with Microsoft’s opinion of severity. Disclaimer: I’m aware that CVSS v4.0 exists. However, Microsoft has not yet adopted it, and I wanted an apples-to-apples comparison.

Your IT infrastructure is a complicated network of systems and activities that generate massive volumes of data every second. Hidden within this data stream is the key to understanding your systems’ health and potential dangers. The dangers are significant, given that the average worldwide data breach costs an exorbitant $4.45 million. One such security breach can destroy your organization, resulting in legal fines, financial loss, and harm to your reputation.

In the digital age, where cyber threats loom large and data breaches have become all too common, the humble password remains a vital security gatekeeper. Yet, with stolen credentials accounting for 31% of breaches, according to Verizon’s 2024 Data Breach Investigations Report, it’s clear that organizations often fail to protect passwords.

There’s no denying that mobile devices have become essential tools for employees — they facilitate communication and boost productivity by providing access to corporate resources from virtually anywhere. But that convenience comes at a cost. The role of the mobile device, in terms of how much can be done with them and the amount of data they can give users access to in a convenient and familiar form factor, has made them indispensable to the modern workforce.

With technology supply chain risks at an all-time high, many governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) teams conduct formal risk assessments as part of their new vendor selection and onboarding processes. Audit-based reporting frameworks like SOC 2 are invaluable to these efforts, as they provide a consistent way to benchmark prospective vendors’ customer data management practices.
