Infrastructure Management

Imagine yourself wearing the hat of a network engineer, where no two days at work are alike. In this dynamic environment, you're often the first point of contact when something remotely IT-related goes wrong, with users frequently pointing fingers at the network. Yet, your expertise lies in knowing the intricacies of network traffic, a vital skill for addressing operational and performance challenges.

AI-powered Network Detection and Response (NDR) solutions have become a staple for identifying the subtle indicators of unknown threats, a crucial element in the constant battle against cyberattacks. While NDR excels in unveiling the shadows of the unfamiliar, it is the traditional signature-based Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) enabling security teams to maximize protection and facilitate targeted responses, particularly when confronting well-known malware. In this article, we delve into the distinct benefits of both AI-driven NDR and conventional approaches. We will also unravel compelling reasons why the integration of these technologies are strategic imperatives in assisting to fortify cybersecurity defenses.

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats, cryptojacking has emerged as a stealthy and financially motivated attack method. In attacks of this type, cybercriminals hijack servers (or endpoint devices) to use the computing resources to “mine” cryptocurrencies. They get a financial benefit from this activity when they sell the newly minted currencies.

The much-anticipated cybersecurity rules by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for public companies have arrived, signaling a significant step forward from the proposed rules released in March 2022. These final rules, effective July 26, 2023, introduce new obligations that public companies must adhere to, promising a more secure and transparent corporate landscape. However, these regulations bring significant compliance challenges and litigation risks. Public companies now face the need to assess their internal disclosure controls, enhance their cybersecurity risk management, and invest effort in drafting their cybersecurity disclosures.
