What is response rate limiting? How does it help in securing your critical network infrastructure?

Organizations often face different forms of cyberthreats and cyberattacks, and attackers try to get their hands on confidential data which would result in major loss of reputation, customer’s information, etc. So, organizations should implement networking tools to secure their data.

Get Visibility Into the Cloud: Craig and Mike Secure the World, One Cloud at a Time

Mike Lossmann and Craig Johnson discuss enhancing cloud visibility for an upcoming audit, demonstrating how to ensure security in cloud environments. Highlights Craig explains the importance of knowing the cloud’s security posture. Forward Enterprise shows full multi-cloud visibility between cloud zones. Analysis reveals potential security gaps. Querying the entire cloud model identifies misconfigurations. Historical data allows for forensic analysis post-breach. Users can prepare for audits without last-minute scrambling.

Highlights from Q2 2024 Cato CTRL SASE Threat Report

At RSA Conference 2024, Cato Networks introduced Cato CTRL (Cyber Threats Research Lab), which is our cyber threat intelligence (CTI) team. Cato CTRL protects organizations by collecting, analyzing and reporting on external and internal threats, utilizing the data lake underlying the Cato SASE Cloud Platform. For 2024, Cato CTRL is publishing quarterly threat reports that provide an overview of the threat landscape.

Navigating the New Era of ISO 27001: Insights for IT and Security Leaders

In our border and perimeter free world, connected infrastructure becomes more and more complex. Security tools need to keep up by adjusting to the new application delivery models and adapting to the shifting threat environment. That's why the recent update to the ISO 27001 compliance standard is so pivotal — it introduces new controls around data security, DevOps, and network security to help future-proof our cybersecurity strategies.

Cybersecurity Teams, It's Time to End the Dept. of 'No'

In a never-ending effort to do their job and secure their environments, cybersecurity teams often bear the brunt of negative perceptions, labelled as the department of ‘No.’ “No” to admin privileges, “No” to personal devices, and “No” to connecting unapproved technologies. These repeated denials, although done with the best intentions, can stifle innovation and create frustration within organizations. This perception needs to change.

Ensuring Your Privacy: The Critical Role of Security in Choosing a VPN

Among the growing digital threats to privacy, picking out a Virtual Private Network with the right security features makes it very fundamental. The VPN will not only hide your IP address but will go ahead and encrypt your internet connection, thus helping maintain your privacy while online. On the other hand, not all VPNs are created equal. When it comes to the question of what security in a VPN is, it can enable one to make-without question-an informed decision towards guarding one's digital life.

How a Network Digital Twin Prevents Change-Related Outages

In today's rapidly evolving IT landscape, effective change management is crucial for maintaining network stability and performance, but many organizations lack a consistent change process. Lack of process often leads to unintended consequences, such as outages and performance degradation. A network digital twin offers a transformative solution to these challenges by streamlining change management processes and providing pre- and post-change verification to enhance operational efficiency.

New NIST Zero Trust Guidance Reinforces Agent Hygiene Value

This week, the National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) released “Implementing a Zero Trust Architecture (NIST SP 1800-35)” for public comment. The guide is written by NIST’s National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) in collaboration with 24 cybersecurity companies. Now in its fourth draft, NCCoE has opened up comments for this Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) guide through Sept. 30, 2024, as part of a 60-day review cycle.
