Why do we continue to see so many cyber breaches? If we look at why most cyber breaches of the past year occurred, we see that it comes down to three major factors - the human factor, identities and credentials, and vulnerabilities. Living in a digital social society, we share more information, ultimately exposing...
Most enterprise IT professionals agree, securing the network only at the perimeter is inadequate for today's data centers. Modern attacks can exploit a perimeter-centric defense. In this paper, we show how VMware NSX enables security that is both ubiquitous and granular by integrating security functions into the...
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is the primary
mechanism used for communication between Voiceover-
IP (VoIP) devices and networks. SIP allows businesses to create a whole new level of
functionality by taking advantage of the convergence
of voice and data networks, including call center
applications, unified...
To stop threats, you first have to see them coming.
Today's cyber threats are increasing in volume, diversity and sophistication, rapidly outstripping the ability of point security solutions to safeguard critical data, applications and systems. Network-based security replaces these vulnerable point solutions with...
Virtualization and related developments bring significant changes to the architecture of today's data centers. At RSA Conference Asia Pacific & Japan, Cisco's Munawar Hossain defines these changes and outlines the new challenges.
EdgeWave's Mike Walls, a former bomber pilot who led Navy red teams, says penetration testing is useful in analyzing bits and bytes but not the readiness of operations under attack from cyberspace. Red teams, he says, can analyze the impact on operations.
To help organizations discover what they don't know is happening on their networks, Darktrace uses machine learning to create advanced baselines of normal behavior, then sounding alarms when it sees deviations.
To better secure enterprise networks, as well as detect and respond more rapidly to data breaches, businesses need to know the who, what, where, when and why of all endpoints that connect to network resoruces, says ForeScout's Sandeep Kumar.
Too often enterprises fail to adequately vet their cloud service providers, which can create security vulnerabilities, according to IT security lawyers Francoise Gilbert and Ellen Giblin.
