What are my quantum options? And what has Goldilocks’ porridge got to do with it? You’ve heard that eventually you’ll need to migrate to quantum-safe cryptography. Perhaps you’re raring to go. And yet, here I am, ready to tell you one thing: don’t do anything yet. Your options really depend on your quantum problem, but if you’re looking to migrate your cryptography today, you’re moving way too soon.

On September 4, 2023, CERT-UA revealed a meticulously planned cyberattack targeting Ukraine's critical energy infrastructure. The attack's modus operandi was distinct; it utilized deceptive emails containing bait links, luring victims into downloading a seemingly innocuous ZIP archive. This archive, however, harbored malicious files designed to hijack the victim's computer, redirecting data flows and exfiltrating sensitive information using services like mockbin.org and mocky.io.

Imagine that you work in IT and security for a federal entity. How do you manage your event data across different systems and networks? When something goes wrong, how do you detect, investigate and remediate these security incidents? That’s what the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) addresses in M-21-31: a memorandum that provides guidance for federal agencies to increase their visibility and response capabilities before, during and after a cybersecurity incident.

So you want to hunt, eh? Well my young padwa…hold on. As a Splunk Jedi once told me, you have to first go slow to go fast. What do I mean by that? Well, if you rush into threat hunting and start slinging SPL indiscriminately, you risk creating gaps in your investigation. What gaps might those be? As a wise man once said, Know thy network. Actually — in this case — know your network and hosts.

If you have spent any time searching in Splunk, you have likely done at least one search using the stats command. I won’t belabor the point: stats is a crucial capability in the context of threat hunting — it would be a crime to not talk about it in this series. When focusing on data sets of interest, it's very easy to use the stats command to perform calculations on any of the returned field values to derive additional information.

Our cyber adversaries are always staying one step ahead. Threat actors love nothing more than trying out new tactics and techniques to attack targets, achieving their malicious objectives. Today, anyone is susceptible to cyber threats at practically any moment. MITRE ATT&CK is a framework that serves as a guiding light— it helps you assess your existing security measures and enhance device and endpoint security mechanisms against these evolving cyber threats.

The world is becoming more reliant on data through data analytics and AI, where a lack of data quality can cost 74% more time spent on non-value added tasks by employees. This makes proper data governance more crucial than ever. As organizations become data-driven and interact with more data than ever, understanding the ins and outs of data governance is essential for ensuring data quality, security, and regulatory compliance.

Cyberattacks are top of mind for organizations across the globe. In fact, 62 percent of firms are being attacked at least weekly and 45 percent are experiencing a rise in the number of security threats. But do organizations have the processes in place to investigate and effectively respond to these incidents? IDC recently surveyed security decision makers at 600 organizations to understand the state of security operations today.

A security information event management (SIEM) solution is like a radar system that pilots and air traffic controllers use. Without one, enterprise IT is flying blind. Although security appliances and system software are good at catching and logging isolated attacks and anomalous behavior, today's most serious threats are distributed, acting in concert across multiple systems and using advanced evasion techniques to avoid detection.

Security incidents can happen without warning and they often go undetected for long periods of time. Organizations struggle to identify incidents because they often work in silos or because the amount of alerts is overwhelming and hard to determine the signals among the noise.

Current IT security tools and mindsets are no longer adequate to meet the scope and complexity of today's threats. Internet security has evolved over the last ten years but advanced persistent threats and the sophistication of the malware have fundamentally changed the way security teams must think about these new threats and the tools used for detective controls.
