FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Cybercrime
Most organizations rely too heavily on their cybersecurity pros to protect them from threats, ignoring the painful reality that human error is by far the most common cause of security breaches.
Botnets are becoming more malicious, sometimes able to create hundreds of thousands of drones that can attack a variety of machines, including Mac systems, Linux, Windows systems, edge devices, IoT devices, and so on.
Despite having different infrastructure, goals and methods, threat actors do not work in a vacuum. They feed off of each other.
How can organizations fight ransomware? The best solution is always prevention. Here are three tactics toward that goal.
The question of the importance of the state of a client device is a debate that has been around for a few years in the security field.
Plausible deniability provides a massive operational leeway to military operations in cyberspace, enabling governments to take actions without risking an all-out war.
Leveraging humans for detection makes it hard for the attackers to predict whether or not their malicious emails will be identified and using technology to automate response provides scale and speed in resolution.
The fact that so many large and high-profile enterprises fall prey to ransomware attacks that in many cases does not pose any new technical challenge suggests that there are still many gaps that needs to be closed.
We tend to focus on the attack surface when it comes to cybersecurity, but the reality is, much like an iceberg, there’s so much more lurking beneath the surface.
Threat hunting must be non-attributable, while maintaining a clear audit trail to satisfy legal and governance requirements.
