New assets, vulnerabilities, and even human errors like server misconfigurations make a continuously updated overview non-negotiable. AppSec and ProdSec teams must take action on newly discovered vulnerabilities and policy breaches quickly and efficiently. Prioritizing which vulnerabilities and risks to remediate first and having this information all in one place will help security teams get the latest insights about their attack surface immediately.

Kroll has observed an uptick in cases of DARKGATE malware being delivered through Microsoft Teams messages. These campaigns have mainly targeted organizations in the transportation and hospitality sectors. This activity has also been reported throughout open-source reporting, sharing a number of key indicators with Kroll observations, such as common filenames, adversary infrastructure and similar domain name conventions to host the initial download.

In my role as an Inside Solutions Architect at 11:11 Systems, my objective is to match 11:11 Systems range of solutions to meet customer’s data protection needs, from simple off-site BaaS to fully managed DRaaS solutions. That objective is easier to achieve when customers come to the table with an effective and reliable recovery plan. So how do you make an effective and reliable recovery plan? Here are a couple of key consideration points when constructing your recovery plan.

Earlier this year, we introduced the LimaCharlie SecOps Cloud Platform (SCP). The SCP is a unified platform for modern cybersecurity operations. Similar to what the public cloud did for IT, the SCP offers security teams core cybersecurity capabilities and infrastructure: on-demand, pay-per-use, and API-first. In short, the SCP is a new paradigm for cybersecurity. It’s a game-changer for enterprise security teams and cybersecurity solutions builders.

Back to school is a great time to remember basic cybersecurity best practices to protect you and your family. These won’t surprise anyone who’s been parenting for the last few years, but what might surprise you is how fast things are changing, which can increase your risk of giving access to cyber criminals. That is mostly around all the applications, and even micro-applications, that most frequently provide the lowest levels of security.

Penetration testing is a pivotal strategy amongst various security methodologies, aimed at bolstering an organisation’s digital environment. Commonly known as “pen testing” or “ethical hacking”, this type of test represents a structured and regulated method for assessing the security integrity of a company’s digital ecosystem.

Composing song lyrics, writing code, securing networks — sometimes it seems like AI can do it all. And with the rise of LLM-based engines like ChatGPT and Google Bard, what once seemed like science fiction is now accessible to anyone with an internet connection. These AI advancements are top-of-mind for most businesses and bring up a lot of questions.

Data is expanding beyond environments, applications, and geographical boundaries. It is safe to say that we are currently experiencing the era of the Big Bang of Data. It is driving economies and industries. Organizations that can leverage data to its fullest potential take the helm of their industry, leading it peerlessly. However, with the proliferation of data comes increasingly serious risks to data security and privacy.

Compliance and security often go hand in hand as ideas that attempt to protect against cyber threats. While both compliance and security are designed to lower risk, they are not mutually inclusive—that is, not everything that is required for compliance will necessarily help with security, and not everything that bolsters security will necessarily put you in compliance.

Organizations utilize hundreds, sometimes thousands, of vendors to handle their day-to-day production, workflow, and business processes. With this many vendors, it’s easy for details to fall through the cracks and miscommunication to occur. Organizations often turn to vendor management systems to help manage multiple vendor relationships throughout a vendor lifecycle.
