The explosive growth of IP networking has let a genie out of the bottle. The more an organization or nation is connected to the internet, the more vulnerable it becomes. The challenge is finding the right balance between "can" and "should" - the fact that we can connect every person, server, app, and cloud vs. the...
Deployed at the network layer, segmentation was first developed to improve network performance. But as cybersecurity experts have realized that a "perimeter only" approach to security is not working, it has become increasingly clear the micro-segmentation is foundational to data center and cloud security. ...
As of January 1, 2018, all SWIFT customers had a deadline to self-attest to their compliance with the new SWIFT Customer Security Program (CSP), designed to respond to the wave of cybercrime that began with the Bank of Bangladesh breach back in February, 2016 and has swept across the world over the past two years. If...
We all know that May 25 was the enforcement deadline for Europe's General Data Protection Regulation. But what impact will General Data Protection Regulation have on cybersecurity programs?
GDPR, or the "Y2K" of our era, is part of a larger conversation that's been catalyzed by a lot of the recent news around...
We all know about May 25 and the enforcement deadline for Europe's General Data Protection Regulation. But what impact will GDPR have on cybersecurity programs? Danny Rogers of Terbium Labs weighs in on the topic.
The GDPR regulation will be enforced beginning May 25, 2018 and for many organizations, the initial transition to GDPR compliance is likely to be a lengthy and challenging process that will require regular reevaluation based on continued reassessment of the risks.

Many models of security still have their roots in older infrastructure. But with the death of the network perimeter and the rapidly approaching end to passwords, there has to be a new view of the security landscape to prepare for this future - especially with new devices coming in ever-changing forms.
This...
As of Q1 2018, the global cybersecurity community finds themselves inundated with both internal and external advanced threat actors who are stealthier, more resilient and sadly, more effective than they have ever been before. Many organizations are coming to terms with deciding whether their security posture is...
The financial industry continues to be a high-risk target for fraud, primarily fueled by the sale of stolen credentials, account numbers, pins, and personal and financial information.
While larger financial institutions have dedicated in-house teams and sophisticated technologies in place to detect incidents,...
As the cybersecurity threat landscape evolved over the past two decades, firewalls grew increasingly ineffective at blocking attackers from accessing network data. Next-generation firewalls (NGFWs) aim to fill those gaps, but do they really provide an all-encompassing solution for network security?

The conversation around the cloud is not something new to the industry, with the topic showing up everywhere from IT back offices to Fortune 500 C-Suites. Despite cloud's ubiquity, there is still a lot to understand, regardless of your expertise level; there is not just one single cloud - and, for that matter, not all...
On May 25, 2018, all organizations that do business with citizens from the European Union will be subject to the enforcement of a new set of laws that help protect their sensitive personal identification information. Called the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the legislation replaces a two-decade-old EU...
The front lines for conflict in the digital age now lay at the network gateway. Unfortunately, on today's virtual battlefield, the enemy is constantly advancing. While no approach is going to guarantee security across networks and devices, taking a strategic approach to IT defense not unlike those taken in real-world...
Identity and Access Management (IAM) programs are becoming increasingly essential to securing critical systems and data; last year, companies spent $7 billion on IAM, most on protecting user credentials, but almost nothing protecting keys and certificates, the credentials that identify and authorize machine-to-machine...
