Users who do not have the appropriate security awareness training are considered a weak link in the security of an enterprise. These untrained users are easier to exploit than finding a flaw or vulnerability in the equipment that an enterprise uses to secure its network. Attackers could convince unsuspecting users to unintentionally provide access to the enterprise network or expose sensitive information. Proper training should be provided to users in order to decrease the risk of a security incident.

File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) is a key intelligence and audit tool in an advanced security portfolio. While it is a logical component to integrate into your Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) tooling, it’s important to consider your approach to ensure you can gain the most benefits from it.

Keeping your Android work devices safe from unwanted factory resets is really important for businesses today. Let’s learn how Mobile Device Management (MDM) can help prevent the misuse of Android work devices from unauthorized hard and soft resets, making it an easy way to protect your data and keep everything working smoothly!

When we carry out an assessment of an organization’s attack surface, it’s often SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) misconfigurations (and other encryption-related issues) that get the worst average scores. Research has estimated that 95% of applications have some kind of misconfiguration or vulnerability. These issues are often overlooked, but they shouldn’t be – their visibility to attackers make them an attack route that’s likely to be exploited.

A social engineering attack is a form of cybersecurity attack where attackers approach individuals and psychologically manipulate them into divulging sensitive information or performing actions that compromise security. Unlike traditional hacking methods that exploit system vulnerabilities, social engineering preys on human psychology, using the likes of deceit, urgency or trust to bypass defenses.

Risk-based vulnerability management (RBVM) is an approach that focuses on prioritizing vulnerability remediation based on risk. RBVM prioritizes remediating vulnerabilities that pose the greatest risk to an organization. While some organizations depend solely on independent scoring methodologies like CVSS or EPSS, effective RBVM takes into consideration the business criticality of assets and ties in threat intelligence to make prioritization decisions.
