"People tell you who they are, but we ignore it, because we want them to be who we want them to be.” - Don Draper Earlier this year we announced some security enhancements to how we handle submissions to Splunkbase. The simple statement is we are making things faster/cheaper/better where Splunkbase security is concerned. Faster in that it takes less time for a developer to get an app into our platform. Cheaper in that it’s more automated.
A major subset of overall cybersecurity, Information Security focuses on protecting sensitive data and information from the risks of cyberattacks. It covers but is not limited to: The fundamental goal of information security is to prevent sensitive data from being compromised by criminals or state actors. InfoSec encompasses a wide range of tasks and practices, spanning from monitoring user behavior to assessing risk to ongoing education.
I originally planned to write this story as a follow-up to another blog that SURGe released for CVE-2022-3602 and CVE-2022-3786 (aka SpookySSL). That blog mentions that we weren’t able to test with any malicious payloads yet, and as things go… After releasing that blog, we came across proof-of-concept exploits that weren’t detected by our searches.

Mitigating reputational issues involves mitigating the risk that leads to them.
Agent Tesla is a remote access trojan (RAT) written for the.NET framework that has knowingly been in operation since 2014. Threat actors behind this malware have leveraged many different methods to deliver their payload over time including macro enabled Word documents, Microsoft Office vulnerabilities, OLE objects and most recently, compiled HTML help files.
We live in a world of rapid technological advancements. Technologies such as big data, the internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence have created a world full of opportunities and solutions. However, it has also opened doors to increased threats, cyberattacks and network vulnerabilities. This post will explain network security, including relevant concepts and issues, as well as best practices that can your organizations secure all your networks and surfaces.
Sometimes referred to as CKC or the cyberattack lifecycle, the cyber kill chain is a security defense model developed to identify and stop sophisticated cyberattacks before they impact an organization. Typically comprised of seven steps, a cyber kill chain model breaks down the multiple stages of a cyberattack, allowing security teams to recognize, intercept or prevent them.
