As damaging breaches continue to occur, more organizations are considering endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions to address the incidents that aren't being handled adequately by their existing defenses. However, EDR solutions come in a wide variety of implementations and can vary significantly in scope and...
The struggle is real as DoD moves from DIACAP to RMF. System owners are challenged to adopt technology that can address the more dynamic controls required by RMF.
Learn how to get help from defense agencies to monitor and assess their systems for RMF compliance by automating the gathering, analysis and reporting of...
Following the alert over Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities, the U.K. Information Commissioner's Office is warning that failures to patch today could be punished with fines under GDPR once enforcement of the data protection law begins later this year.
Microprocessor makers Intel, ARM and AMD, as well as operating system and software developers and makers of smartphones and other devices, are rushing to prep, test and ship fixes for the serious CPU flaws exploitable via Meltdown and Spectre attacks.
"Replace CPU hardware" might be the only full solution listed by CERT/CC for serious flaws in microprocessors that run millions of PCs, cloud services, servers, smartphones and other devices. Thankfully, many security experts believe patches and workarounds will mostly suffice.
In May 2017, the Singapore Government cut direct access to the Internet from its internal systems. This is a policy that is already adopted by Korean banks, many U.S. and U.K. military establishments, as well as the Japanese government. This is to protect government-owned computer systems from potential cyber threats...
In a world where cyber threats have become the norm, organizations must equip themselves with solutions that prevent and isolate attacks. Today, many organizations are mandating Internet separation as a means of controlling these threats. While physical Internet separation or air gap networks is one possible approach,...

As digital threats grow more numerous and perpetrators become savvier, you can't defend your network by taking the traditional, physical approach to IT security. Standard perimeter firewalls aren't designed to protect your critical workloads once an attack makes it inside the data center, and the "firewall-everything"...
Traditional approaches to securing data centers have focused on strong perimeter defenses to keep threats outside the network. Once attackers are inside, it's difficult to stop them.
