FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Network Security
Linux is becoming a more popular target for attackers as it operates the back-end systems of many networks and container-based solutions for IoT devices and mission-critical applications.
Security systems can struggle to keep up when networks are in a constant state of flux—optimizing connections, redirecting workflows, adding new edges or endpoints, or scaling to meet shifting demands.
Analyzing the attack goals of adversaries is important to be able to better align defenses against the speed of changing attack techniques.
Cyber resilience is the only way to guarantee true Zero Trust. When implemented properly, resilient Zero Trust becomes a preventive measure that counteracts human error, malicious actions, and decayed, insecure software.
No matter how far you stray from having a perfect system — or how close you come to attaining one — the pursuit is always an essential and worthwhile investment of your time.
Zero Trust is not simply a product. If someone says it is, they probably either don't know what they're talking about or have watered down their marketing to the point of making it misleading.
By anonymizing their activities and assets, colleges and universities can protect people, data and applications from cyber threats at the network level by making themselves invisible.
Living-off-the-land attacks are effective because they allow attackers to hide their activities in legitimate processes and makes it harder for defenders to detect them. These tools also make attack attribution much harder.
The rise of social engineering tactics as well as risks associated with embedded vulnerabilities in contractor networks makes keeping this technology confidential and out of the hands of adversaries increasingly difficult.
While the sky just may be the limit (or actually, it may not be), when it comes to cybercriminals, three key areas where we expect to see more activity in the coming year are space, digital wallets and esports.
