Even after implementing SOAR, SIEM, IDPS and other technologies to improve security insights, companies still spend thousands of hours triaging alerts that are mostly false positives. Given the ever-increasing volume of alerts, SOC teams are forced into a "do what you can do" strategy that focuses on high-value, high...
Popular business applications are increasingly delivered through the cloud using a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, and cybersecurity applications are no exception. This is good news for small to midsize enterprises (SMEs) that don't have the budgets for in-house security technologies like a SIEM, and lack security...
If you analyze any of the recently published cyber attacks, two patterns emerge:
80-90% of the attacks exploit an unpatched vulnerability or an unhardened, widely open system
70% of the attacks begin at the endpoints
While "cool" new products create a lot of buzz, cyber hygiene is often ignored. But, it must be...

Attackers are in a constant race to update and refine their approach to stay a step ahead of cybersecurity
professionals. Recently, cybercriminals have adjusted the delivery mechanism of their "payload" away from
traditional attack methods. Most often, security breaches are associated with a malicious executable...
Historically, the most damaging breaches occur months or even years before the organization realizes it. By the time the breach is discovered, enormous financial and subsequent reputational loses have accrued. In 2018, a major hotel chain reported a customer data breach where attackers had been mining information...
