Without appropriate access management controls, businesses are at significant risk from the loss or theft of both physical and digital assets. Access management controls establish who is allowed the appropriate level of access in order to do their jobs, while reducing the potential for damage or harm to the company.
Nine security flaws have been disclosed in electric power management products made by Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories. "The most severe of those nine vulnerabilities would allow a threat actor to facilitate remote code execution on an engineering workstation," Nozomi Networks said in a report published last week.
The SEC adopted rules requiring registrants to disclose material cybersecurity incidents they experience and to disclose on an annual basis material information regarding their cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance. The Commission also adopted rules requiring foreign private issuers to make comparable disclosures.
As device diversification continues and more Apple devices enter corporate environments, IT leaders face added management complexity. This new device management standard is built around the concept of shifting device management from centralized servers onto the devices themselves.
Data Security Posture Management is an approach to securing cloud data by ensuring that sensitive data always has the correct security posture - regardless of where it's been duplicated or moved...
A vulnerability management strategy that relies solely on CVSS for vulnerability prioritization is proving to be insufficient at best, according to Rezilion. Relying solely on a CVSS severity score to assess the risk of individual vulnerabilities was shown to be equivalent to randomly selecting vulnerabilities for remediation.
For anyone ready to find an attack surface management vendor, review these six questions before getting started to understand the key features to look for in an ASM platform and the qualities of the vendor who supports it. Does your platform have the capability to discover the unknown? How do you prevent alert fatigue, prioritize alerts and remove false positives? Can you track attack surface changes over time? How do you plan to evolve the platform going forward? What services related to ASM do you offer? Can we demo or test run the platform?
As security practices continue to evolve, one primary concern persists in the minds of security professionals-the risk of employees unintentionally or deliberately exposing vital information. While access controls, encryption, and monitoring systems are crucial for identifying and mitigating unauthorized access and suspicious activities, the increasing prevalence of cloud-based environments and the surge in SaaS application usage demand a fresh perspective on Insider Risk Management from a SaaS security standpoint.
Attack Surface Management detects known, unknown, and potentially vulnerable public-facing assets and changes to your attack surface that may introduce risk. How? Through a combination of NetSPI's ASM technology platform, their global penetration testing experts, and their 20+ years of pentesting expertise.
The Council's inaugural Cloud Data Management Benchmark Report, based on responses from more than 250 data professionals in more than 30 countries across the globe, found that less than half of the companies it polled trust cloud security and reliability enough to store their more crucial data there. The EDM Council benchmark study found that among the companies polled, cloud data management is still in the early stages, with respondents characterizing the status of their data management for cloud-deployed data in "Developmental" or "Defined" stages and few at the "Achieved" or "Enhanced" stages of maturity.
