4 Reasons Why Your Business Needs Network Detection and Response Solutions
Endpoint protection has long been fundamental to cybersecurity. But in today’s evolving and expanding digital landscape, with endpoints spanning a wide variety of devices, is traditional endpoint security enough? The ongoing frequency of successful cyberattacks suggests not. Cloud proliferation, remote work and expanding system access add to the challenge. Can you truly trust users to keep their devices secure amidst this shifting landscape? And can augmenting endpoint security with additional tools, like Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems, enable reliable detection of threats? According to attack data and experience, your cybersecurity stack may require something extra. And that something is Network Detection and Response (NDR).

The First 48 Hours of Ransomware Incident Response
The initial response to a ransomware attack is crucial for determining the damage in terms of downtime, costs, data loss and company reputation. The sooner you detect the activity associated with ransomware, the sooner you can slow its spread. From there, you can take remedial actions to significantly reduce the effects of the attack. In this blog, we’ll outline key steps organizations should take during the first 48 hours after a ransomware infection is detected. We’ll link to a recent Progress Flowmon webinar on the topic that also discusses how national recommendations and regulatory frameworks, such as NIST and NIS2, provide guidance on cyber responses. The webinar outlines how Flowmon solutions can help with early detection and response to ransomware attacks.
