Microservices security is a growing concern for businesses in the face of increasing cyber threats. With application layer attacks being a leading cause of breaches, it’s more important than ever to safeguard the HTTP-based communication between microservices within a Kubernetes cluster. Traditional web application firewalls (WAFs) are not designed to address this specific challenge, but Calico WAF offers a unique solution.

We recently published a blog post detailing how threat actors could leverage AI tools such as ChatGPT to assist in attacks targeting operational technology (OT) and unmanaged devices. In this blog post, we highlight why healthcare organizations should be particularly worried about this.

Networks are the data highways upon which you build your digital transformation infrastructure. Like interstate highways transmit goods, networks transmit data. Every connected user and device is a network digital on-ramp. When malicious actors gain unauthorized access to networks, organizations must detect and contain them as quickly as possible, requiring security analysts to embark on a digital high-speed chase.

Most of the big networking headaches didn’t turn up overnight; they started small and increased in complexity over time, as the network grew and evolved. Without detailed actionable data, these problems can be nearly impossible to solve; at the very least it can take weeks, months, or even years to rid a global network of a pervasive issue.

A critical vulnerability in FortiGate SSL VPN could allow hackers to access vulnerable systems and inject malicious code, even if Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is enabled. To learn how to identify whether your Fortinet product is impacted and how to quickly secure it, read on. Learn how UpGuard simplifies Vendor Risk Management >

Indusface WAS integrates with all major Security Information & Event Management (SIEM) providers that integrate with Amazon S3. With this integration, you can push logs from Indusface WAS into leading SIEM providers like SumoLogic, RSA, Splunk, and McAfee. Given the complexity of modern architectures encompassing multiple security devices and environments, organizations increasingly rely on SIEM solutions.

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.

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.

In terms of unencrypted traffic, several highly used protocols lend themselves to logging and can significantly reduce the burden of packet capture without lowering the fidelity of information or the capabilities of analysts.
