Software and applications make the world go round. This naturally makes them a top attack target for threat actors, and highlights the importance of robust software supply chain compliance. But how do companies build and implement a compliance strategy that solves the challenges of modern application security? Let’s take a look.

Cybersecurity is fundamentally a data problem. As adversary techniques continue to mature, organizations still struggle to collect the right data from all their security and IT point products to detect and respond to evolving threats. CrowdStrike offers a clear data advantage in the cybersecurity market.

On May 11, 2017, President Trump signed Executive Order 13800, Strengthening the Cybersecurity of Federal Networks and Critical Infrastructure. The intention was to reduce cybersecurity risks to national security by improving federal agencies’ cybersecurity and information technology (IT) systems. The executive order holds the heads of federal agencies accountable for their agencies’ risk management practices.

On July 7, 2021, Colorado became the third U.S. state to establish regional data privacy legislation. Colorado included the legislation in Senate Bill 21-190, which was signed into action by Governor Polis. The Colorado Privacy Act (CPA), also called the Colorado Privacy Law, became effective on July 1, 2023.

Since 2020, Forescout Research – Vedere Labs has been tracking the riskiest devices on organizations’ networks. In 2020, we released the first Enterprise of Things Security Report, followed in 2022 with the Riskiest Connected Devices in Enterprise Networks report. Our reports are entirely based on data coming directly from connected devices.

Hi there, As organizations strive to enhance the cyber resilience of their operations, the scope of SOC teams is expanding beyond traditional enterprise IT.

With the evolution of technology, network activities have increased excessively. Many day-to-day tasks are intertwined with the internet to function. On one level of the infamous OSI model, the data exchanged between devices is broken down into smaller units and transmitted in the network in the form of packets. These packets contain information that is useful for investigators and network administrators for analysis and troubleshooting purposes.

As SOCs continue to grow and mature, it's vital that they establish effective and repeatable programs in proactive defense. This also means that threat hunting needs to become a critical function. Numerous advanced and sophisticated threats are able to get past more traditional cybersecurity defenses and SOCs need skilled Threat Hunters who are able to search, log, monitor, and remediate threats before they create a serious problem.

In their latest report titled "Cybersecurity in the Healthcare Industry: Actionable Intelligence for an Active Threat Landscape," the Trustwave SpiderLabs team reveals the data from a months-long investigation focusing on the cyber threats the healthcare industry is currently grappling with.
