Cyber Attacks Continue Long After They Fade from Headlines

Magnifying glass over news headline reading "cyber attack"

When cybercriminals exploit a new vulnerability and attack a big brand company, it dominates news headlines. Yet, the reality is that adversaries persist in the shadows, long after initial reports fade from public view. Take the mass-exploitation of the MOVEit Transfer vulnerability, as just one example. In late May 2023, Progress Software first disclosed a zero-day vulnerability in their managed file transfer solution. The Clop ransomware gang leveraged the vulnerability… Read More

Embracing “Shift Left” in Cybersecurity

Traffic caution sign that reads "shift left"

The concept of “shift left” has DevOps origins, and it’s about fostering a culture of responsibility. The aim is to detect issues earlier in a process or cycle, with an awareness that development choices impact the security of an application, its users, and the organization. From a security standpoint, this means integrating security measures at the beginning of the development cycle, rather than as an add-on after completion. Shifting Security… Read More

Cybercriminals Don’t Discriminate Based on Company Size

Cybercriminals don't care what size you are

Last year, a staggering 76% of organizations were targeted by ransomware attacks. Out of those, 64% fell victim to the attack, and only 50% managed to retrieve their data after paying the ransom. Bad Actors Don’t Care What Size You Are While many small and mid-size businesses assume they’re too small to be in the crosshairs, this isn’t the case. Cybercriminals are opportunistic and are always on the lookout for… Read More

What does “Good” Cybersecurity Look Like?

Essential Features in a Complete XDR Solution

In a rising tide of sophisticated cyberattacks across all sectors, in order to survive and thrive, organizations must implement advanced threat detection and response measures. The goal is to reduce the amount of time an adversary goes undetected in your environment, known as dwell time. Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) has received a lot of attention, as it should. Endpoints are a critical part of a layered defense strategy. That… Read More

What Are the Benefits of Using an EDR Platform?

The ability to quickly and effectively respond to threats is an essential ingredient of any modern cybersecurity strategy. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, businesses are at risk because cyber criminals are able to bypass older security protocols. In fact, the average total cost of a ransomware breach has reached $4.62 million, according to IBM. Traditional tools are set up to respond after a compromise has occurred. The mindset… Read More

Without an effective cybersecurity threat detection and response (TDR) strategy in place, organizations put themselves at risk of severe disruption or even destruction when cyberattacks happen. It is a matter of when, not if—in 2022 alone, 76% of survey respondents experienced an attempted ransomware attack, with 64% experiencing a compromise. And word that you’re an easy mark spreads fast. Over two-thirds of those compromised experienced subsequent, multiple attacks. Plus, this… Read More

As workers and data become more distributed, bad actors are capitalizing on weak security points. In fact, Forbes reports that cyberattacks are nearly twice as frequent in 2023 as they were in 2022. Attacks are not only more frequent–they’re more costly. Verizon’s 2023 Data Breach Investigations Report reveals that the median cost to victims per ransomware incident more than doubled over the past two years to $26,000, with 95% of… Read More

What Is the Difference Between Antivirus and EDR?

Security tools are not a new thing. For example, antivirus has been around since the 1980s. While antivirus is the OG, the adversaries’ tactics and techniques have evolved way beyond what antivirus was created to protect. So endpoint detection and response (EDR) was born of necessity because we need to go past simply protecting users from downloading malicious files. Compounding this, the pandemic pushed people, data, and devices out of… Read More
