Josh Goldfarb analyzes five statements stubborn people often say, discusses how they harm an organization's security posture, and suggests ways forward in each case.
For efficiency and effectiveness, automation must take a data-driven approach and encompass how we initiate and learn from the response, not just how we execute the process.
Shifting to the cloud can be a radical but necessary change. There’s no denying the transition can be time consuming and costly upfront.
While obscurity is an offensive tool for attackers, it also represents a defensive measure for organizations. Let’s consider the benefits of concealing network infrastructure and activity from the outside world to reduce the enterprise attack surface.
In response to a specific attack, it’s important to do external threat monitoring and threat actor engagement to determine if the actors are attempting to exploit or monetize the security event.
The combination of “shifting left” and “cloud security” is going to happen and be called “shifting everywhere.”
Each year we see more vendors with technology solutions and buzzwords that rarely live up to their hype and customers willing to believe or gamble for the chance at more visibility, lower business risk, or the chance to close a security gap.
Fraudsters will determine who to target within the industry based on each service’s fraud prevention policies and maturity, rather than generally targeting the industry.
The best defense in depth strategy is one that enables multiple tools, deployed across the distributed network—including endpoints, clouds, and applications—to work as a unified solution to detect and respond to threats.
Despite the long-standing belief that deploying more security solutions will result in greater protection against threats, the truth of the matter can be very different.
