Have you ever felt helpless against insider threats and anomalous user behaviors? It can be frustrating to think your traditional security methods aren't enough to keep up with the evolving threat landscape. But there is a solution! Let's discover how to stay one step ahead of attackers and ensure your organization remains secure with user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA)
With the rapid expansion in both scale and variety of technologies in modern business systems, there comes a need to further secure those technologies to prevent nefarious actors from causing havoc. The expanding data landscape creates a much larger attack surface for bad actors to exploit, and as a result leaves many organizations at risk from theft, fraud or other undesirable behavior.
The Summer of Security continues! Hot on the heels of security announcements at.conf22 and a brand new Splunk Security Essentials 3.6.0, we’re excited to announce the availability of User Behavior Analytics (UBA) version 5.1.
The world's course towards digitization increases the need for organizations to protect their sensitive data and information more than ever before. According to IDC, in 2025, global investment in the digital transformation of businesses is expected to exceed $2.8 trillion. When you use a significant part of the organization's budget for digitalization, you have to protect this investment. Of course, it's not just organizations that appreciate the value of digital data and information.
As the digital transformation continues at full speed, the majority of humanity's routine activities have begun to be carried out through digital channels. As the world digitizes, the potential loot in the lap of hackers grows. That's why we witness the development of new cyber threats every day. This requires all organizations, from the smallest to the largest, to be prepared for advanced cyber attacks.
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.
