The growing number and complexity of threats, combined with the expansion of the attack surface, complicate the primary purpose of a SOC: detecting, analyzing, and responding to security incidents. These factors generate exponential growth in data volume and security alerts, which teams need more resources to address.
“You’ve inherited a fortune. To transfer the money, I need your bank account credentials.” If you have ever stumbled across something like this, you need to continue reading. According to Verizon’s 2022 Data Breach Investigations Report, 25% of all data breaches consistently involve phishing. How does this happen? The fraudsters who are involved in phishing are some of the best content writers.
Following my recent AISA session about security transformation in October, I am digging further into the value that can come from both security and digital transformation, applying security service edge capabilities and zero trust principles as part of the broader digital transformation strategy.. In the first part of this three-part blog series, I am going to take a look at how an understanding of digital strategy and digital risk are foundational to a modern security transformation journey.
Malware is becoming more sophisticated, and it would be impossible to prevent and defend from every single cyber threat out there. As the digital dependence of enterprises grows in tandem with the enterprise’s growth, we at Rubrik are seeing some consistent trends that can be mapped to their exacerbating cyber risk. In today's competitive landscape, it is even more important to secure your data to defend against cyber attacks.
As data is becoming a critical asset and data breach incidents are increasing, the software is becoming a primary factor for both. And for securing it, Code Signing Certificate is a primary component software publishers use. Developers have recently been utilizing certificates with a 2048-bit key length. But, in 2021, a new policy was enacted, directing CAs to issue Code Signing Certificates with a 3072-Bit Key Length. The primary aim of defining such a standard was to strengthen security.
Calling all enterprises, endpoint management is changing. New endpoint protection platforms & AI-powered solutions are a game-changer for companies looking to enhance their security capabilities and remain bulletproof. The worst of the pandemic appears to be behind us; however, enterprises are still adjusting to the post-COVID new normal. For many industries, remote work and the hybrid office remain essential adjustments that are not going back to normal.
Humans are considered the weakest link in cybersecurity. No matter how much a company invests in firewalls, antivirus, and other security software to detect, deter, and prevent attacks humans will always be the main vectors for compromise. If no adequate user-security training is provided within the organization, they will always be at risk. Phishing is one of the oldest cyber-attacks yet one of the most used by attackers due to its effectiveness and low cost.
