Understanding Suspicious User Types With UEBA

The cybersecurity threat landscape is evolving rapidly. Hackers and other malicious users are becoming increasingly sophisticated in their attack methods, rendering traditional security tools obsolete. Modern cybercriminals will use any means to break into firewalls, send emails with infected attachments, or even bribe employees to share login credentials. Businesses in all industries must identify and implement comprehensive IT security tools and strategies to protect their valuable assets.

Top Tips for Moving from Compliance to Cybersecurity Excellence

Compliance should be an essential part of business operations, regardless of industry. Taking preventative measures to manage compliance and mitigate risk can feel like a hassle upfront, but it can save your organisation huge costs in the long run. Compliance violations can result in fines, penalties, lawsuits, loss of reputation, and more. However, your efforts should not stop at obtaining a compliance certificate, rather they should expand to accelerate your cybersecurity posture.

What Makes Telecommunication Companies Such a Fertile Ground for Attack?

Telecommunication is the first, and most robust network ever invented. This may seem like a brazen and bold statement, but when examined closely, it is not the stuff of fantasy. Prior to the invention and development of the internet, what other way could a person pick up a device, and “dial” a few numbers and end up seamlessly connected to someone across the vast expanse of a countryside?

Eliminate noise and prioritize the vulnerabilities that really matter with Risk Spotlight

Is your team drowning in container vulnerability noise? Are you spending a lot of time figuring out where to focus resources on and still missing dangerous vulnerabilities? Know that you are not alone. Container environments revolutionized app development by enabling unprecedented velocity, but not without a price. The use of readily available container images of third-party and open-source code enabled much faster cycles, but also facilitated the introduction of vulnerabilities in the application.

Modernizing SAST rules maintenance to catch vulnerabilities faster

Snyk Code separates itself from the majority of static code analysis tools by generating and maintaining rule sets for its users — helping them combat common and newly discovered threats. A recent Hub article described a new Javascript vulnerability called prototype pollution, which allows attackers to modify, or “pollute”, a Javascript object prototype and execute a variety of malicious actions.

Are vulnerability scores misleading you? Understanding CVSS severity and using them effectively

Vulnerabilities are everywhere. Vetting, mitigating, and remediating them at scale is exhausting for security practitioners. Let’s keep in mind that no organization has the capacity to find and fix all vulnerabilities. The key is to understand what a vulnerability is, interpret the meanings of the CVSS score, and prioritize and effectively use resources within constrained time limits or delivery windows. Since 2016, new vulnerabilities reported each year have nearly tripled.
