Ultimate Guide: Creating a Cyber Security Incident Response Plan
A cybersecurity Incident Response Plan (CSIRP) is the guiding light that grounds you during the emotional hurricane that follows a cyberattack. A CSIRP helps security teams minimize the impact of active cyber threats and outline mitigation strategies to prevent the same types of incidents from happening again. But as the complexity of cyberattacks increases, so too should the strategies that prevent them.

How We Help You Monitor Suppliers' Risk
We did an ROI analysis of SecurityScorecard. Here's what we found out: Companies achieve a close to 200% ROI over 3 years. Here's how: Continuously monitoring cyber threats is difficult to handle for small cyber teams, forcing them to hire more people. In the current economic climate, those personnel costs make up the bulk of company expenses. SecurityScorecard allows you to streamline your third-party risk management program and run your TPM program with a smaller, more efficient team.

3 Critical Best Practices of Software Supply Chain Security:
If your organization develops software and applications to deliver products and solutions, then more than likely you’re using third-party open source components to help create them. According to most estimates, open source components now make up over 80 percent of software products.
Single Author Uploaded 168 Packages to npm as Part of a Massive Dependency Confusion Attack
Mend Supply Chain Defender reported and blocked dozens of packages from the same author.
