XZ Backdoor / RCE (CVE-2024-3094) is the Biggest Supply Chain Attack Since Log4j

A severe backdoor has been discovered in XZ Utils versions 5.6.0 and 5.6.1, potentially allowing threat actors to remotely access systems using these versions within SSH implementations. Many major Linux distributions were inadvertently distributing compromised versions. Consult your distribution’s security advisory for specific impact information.

What is a DNS firewall? Optimize the security of your network infrastructure using DDI Central's DNS firewall

Cyberthreats in today’s digital age are becoming complex and relentless, highlighting the importance of robust cybersecurity measures. Among these measures, DNS firewalls stand out as essential components of a comprehensive security strategy. By intercepting and analyzing DNS traffic, these firewalls provide a unique vantage point for identifying and neutralizing threats before they can infiltrate the network.

Does a VPN Protect You From Hackers?

While VPNs may protect you from some types of cyber attacks launched by hackers, they don’t protect you from all of them. For example, VPNs may protect you from Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks, remote hacking, Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks and session hijacking, but VPNs will not protect you from hackers who steal encryption keys, or from account compromise, phishing attacks or illegitimate websites.

Advanced Security: Marking AWS WAF's Homework

The same security scenarios are checked thoroughly. Privilege escalation, SQL injection, Port scanning and so on. These checks form the bedrock of defensive security, but as solutions become more complex, so too must our capability to detect complex scenarios. Let’s explore a very complex use case, that ties together multiple Coralogix features, and showcases the power of Coralogix, not just in detecting the simple stuff, but in tracking the most complex scenarios in modern security.

What Is a Firewall?

A firewall is a type of network security system that helps protect your network from external threats by controlling incoming and outgoing network traffic. A firewall can be either software-based or hardware-based. A hardware firewall is typically a router, which is a physical device that blocks traffic from accessing the internal network. A software firewall works similarly, but is installed on your device. For instance, the Windows Firewall comes with operating systems Windows XP SP2 and later.
