While Kubernetes’ Role-based access control (RBAC) authorization model is an essential part of securing Kubernetes, managing it has proven to be a significant challenge — especially when dealing with numerous users and pods. Fortunately, KubiScan is here to help address this issue.

No, you don’t need more than one Privileged Access Management (PAM) solution to protect your organization if you find one that encompasses zero-knowledge security, granular access control, session management and automated password rotation. Previously, your organization may have needed multiple PAM solutions for various tasks; however, KeeperPAM is a unified platform that provides centralized cloud management of privileged access, passwords, secrets and connections.

Security can be a difficult, expensive world to navigate. So we decided to create a comprehensive guide of open-source security tools to cut through the bullsh*t and show what the most critical tools to implement are, what assets you need to protect, and how you can build a long-term security plan using only free and open-source tools.

It’s the holiday season, and as we close out the year, I’ve never been more confident in the people and mission that fuel Arctic Wolf. A year ago, we set a goal to be even bolder in our commitment to define the security operations industry, while maintaining the qualities that make us great: our community, our perseverance, and our willingness to go above and beyond to delight our customers.

At Fortra, we like to encourage a collaborative environment. One of the ways we bring our community together is through our Transformer meetups which aim to provide a positive, energizing, and fun hub for all Fortra employees to learn how to be innovative, get inspired by others, and reach their creative potential. Our most recent meetup was moderated by myself and our panelists were Tyler Reguly, John Wilson, Bob Erdman, and Nathan Ramaker.

Back in 2021, we covered the antics of Grinch Bots and how the combination of proposed regulation and technology could prevent these malicious programs from stealing holiday cheer. Fast-forward to 2024 — the Stop Grinch Bots Act of 2021 has not passed, and bots are more active and powerful than ever, leaving businesses to fend off increasingly sophisticated attacks on their own.

The rapid adoption of cloud technology in the past few years has transformed IT environments, enabling unprecedented opportunities for flexibility, scalability, and collaboration. However, this transformation has introduced a potentially dangerous level of complexity into these environments – recent research from PwC revealed that 75% of executives report too much complexity in their organizations, leading to ‘concerning’ cyber and privacy risks.

KnowBe4 is a big believer in focusing on decreasing human risk as the best way to decrease cybersecurity risk in most environments. A big part of decreasing human risk is using effective security awareness training (SAT). You do not want to just focus on SAT, but SAT is a big part of decreasing human risk. To be sure, your human risk management projects need to be broadly focused on more than SAT. We agree.
