With the volume of data breaches and cyberattacks continuing to rise, organizations are increasingly relying on breach and attack simulation tools to provide more consistent and automated validation of controls, says Cymulate's Tim Ager.
Upgrading to a new OS can be a significant headache for IT teams, taking
up a lot of man-hours and IT budgets. Since there is no automatic in-place
upgrade to transition from Win7's 32-bit to Win10's 64-bit version, the
migration process can be extremely time-consuming - involving multiple
manual steps that can...
Many organizations struggle with the scope of information security and digital risk. Making cybersecurity a true enterprise-wide effort is a challenge that sometimes isn't best to face alone.
Often, the biggest obstacle for information security officers is communicating and helping employees at every level...
Developing an effective, sustainable digital security program is a pressing challenge for organizations of all sizes. CIOs and CISOs are facing an increasingly complex risk and regulatory landscape, coupled with a shortage of skilled, experienced information security (IS) professionals to navigate these evolving...

Estimating potential cyber intruder activities and what attack path they may take to access our critical assets is important in understanding how we prioritize our security measures.
This whitepaper focuses on an optimized method for automatically assessing those attack routes taking into account the challenges found...
Changes in development models, architecture designs, and the infrastructure where we run applications over the past 5-10 years have made modern applications look nothing like they did a decade ago. So why are most companies still using legacy web application firewall (WAF) defenses that were not built for modern web...
Watch this brief video interview to learn more about how the city of Westland achieved their security goals by harnessing AI to gain the most real-time visibility into their environment.
In recent years, Las Vegas has become a prototypical smart city. Between its fully autonomous vehicles and its array of IoT sensors, the city aims to embrace innovation without compromising the security of its 650,000 residents and 42 million annual tourists.

As organizations are relying more and more on cloud collaboration tools to store and share sensitive customer data, security concerns abound. Failure to comply with regulation is not a risk worth taking, and the financial cost, time lost and reputation damage from even one data breach can jeopardize an entire...
This whitepaper from the SANS Institute focuses on the growing use and benefits derived from information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) convergence which includes more effective management and operation of contemporary control systems. IT/OT convergence carries unique challenges that make managing...
Most companies have huge gaps in their cyber defenses, and can be compromised at will by a determined hacker. The industry even has a term for it: Assume Breach.
Join Roger A. Grimes, a 30-year computer consultant, for this webinar where he explores the latest research on what's wrong with current defenses and how...
