BERT Embeddings: A Modern Machine-learning Approach for Detecting Malware from Command Lines (Part 2 of 2)

CrowdStrike data science researchers recently explored and experimented with the use of Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformers (BERT) for embedding command lines, focusing on anomaly detection, but without detailing the model itself. Diving deeper into that research, CrowdStrike researchers explain the reasons for using BERT for command line representation and how to train the model and assess its performance.

How Does Infrastructure as Code on AWS work?

Imagine having to manually provision and configure every device in a large corporation. Then visualize the upgrade process. How about patching? Then, picture ensuring conformity on every device.

Mind the gap: The state of secrets scanning in 2021

Consuming secrets is a cornerstone for connectivity between applications and infrastructure. Whether it be cloud identity-based secrets such as IAM role keys from AWS, or FTP accessibility credentials - secrets such as these are often discovered by malicious users. The common culprit is usually in a public space such as public repositories on GitHub. While it's easy to think "that will never happen to us", it only takes one misplaced key pushed to the wrong repository for your entire infrastructure, application, and databases to be compromised and exposed.

The DevOps Guide To Vulnerability Management Tools In 2021

Imagine you are in charge of maintaining data for some of the most secretive government offices and powerful business entities globally. You have a significant investment in your security apparatuses protecting that knowledge. For years you haven't had a single blip or incident to cause any suspicion. Then the unthinkable happens, and from a single weak point, your entire network is compromised by malicious code hidden in an innocuous update.

Netwrix: Modern Endpoint Management for Wherever Work Gets Done

In today's hybrid work environment, employees access their desktops and laptops at the office, at home, while travelling and through kiosks.

Netwrix: How To Implement A CIS Hardened Build Standard

Commercial and open source system configurations generally lack all the necessary security measures needed before deploying into production. These configurations will often times have features and functionalities enabled by default, making them less secure and a prime target for today's cyber criminals. Implementing a CIS hardened build standard can help you address this issue by disabling and removing unnecessary functionalities and features, allowing your security team to proactively minimize system vulnerabilities, enhance system integrity, achieve compliance, and reduce your attack surface.
