Devo's 2022 Cybersecurity Predictions: Part Two
In part one of our 2022 cybersecurity predictions series, Devo CSO Gunter Ollmann explained the rise of XDR, the detection-as-code and response-as-code movement, and the growing interest in security tools with built-in, on-demand expertise. In this second installment of our series, I share my take on how the cybersecurity landscape will evolve. Let’s dive into it.
Catching Log4j in the Wild: Find, Fix and Fortify
At many organizations, the surprise discovery that the widely used Apache log4j open source software has harbored a longtime critical vulnerability was as if Scrooge and the Grinch had teamed up for the biggest holiday heist of all. Incident response teams across the globe have scrambled to remediate thousands, if not millions of applications. “For cybercriminals this is Christmas come early,” explained Theresa Payton, former White House CIO and current CEO of Fortalice Solutions.
Snyk Log4Shell Stranger Danger Live Hack
In this recorded session, we present a live hack webinar on the Log4Shell exploit. We give a brief overview of the vulnerability and dive right into some examples of the exploit in action. We then show several real-world remediation approaches as well as other fixes outside code. We give a final round of fun demos, including container and IaC hacks as well as Java-based game hacks. We wrap up with a great list of takeaway resources and answer your questions.
Snyk Code Hands-on Workshop
Snyk Code is developer-first: embedding SAST as part of the development process, enabling developers to build software securely during development, and not trying to find and fix problems after the code is compiled. Snyk Code works in the IDEs and SCMs developers use to build and review software and provides fast, actionable, meaningful results to fix issues in real-time.
Snyk Container in 2021: Shifting container security all the way left
No matter how you slice it, the use of containers and Kubernetes continues to swell. And recent high profile vulnerabilities-that-shall-not-be-named have shown us how important container security is for an overall application security program. Protecting your own code, your dependencies, and the containerized services you use are all a must.
Snyk IaC in 2021: Leading infrastructure as code security for developers
With great automation, comes great risk. The advent of infrastructure as code brought about automation for the tedium of deploying, provisioning, and managing resources in public clouds with declarative scripts. However, this automation increased the importance of creating secure IaC scripts or configurations with cloud infrastructure misconfigurations being cited as the biggest area of increased concern (58%) from 2020 to 2021 in the 2021 Snyk Cloud Native Application Security report.

2021 SANS Security Operations Center Report Offers Insight into Latest Industry Standards and Practices
A security operations center (SOC), which includes the people, processes, and technology needed to monitor, detect, analyze, and respond to cyber threats, is the foundation of many businesses’ cybersecurity. A SOC, however, is difficult to manage and maintain, requires significant budget and resources, and comes with many other challenges.
CrowdStrike Launches Free Targeted Log4j Search Tool
The recently discovered Log4j vulnerability has serious potential to expose organizations across the globe to a new wave of cybersecurity risks as threat actors look to exploit this latest vulnerability to execute their malicious payloads using remote code execution (RCE). An immediate challenge that every organization faces is simply trying to understand exactly where you have applications that are using this very popular Java library — but you are not facing this challenge alone.
Monitoring File Changes with Falcon FileVantage
This video will demonstrate how organizations can use Falcon FileVantage, CrowdStrike's File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) solution, to monitor for file and system changes required to satisfy compliance regulations.
