Advanced Threat Detection

The speed of doing business is steadily increasing. Unfortunately, this also applies to the business of malware and ransomware attacking your organization. Popular branches of cryptographic ransomware like Locky or CryptoLocker get reissued every five to 10 minutes, requiring a new signature. By nature, this is a showstopper for pattern-based defense layers like antivirus and IPS/ IDS. Today, threats spread at a high velocity, and it is not possible to detect a threat, isolate the signature, add the signature to the databases, and make it publicly and continually available within five minutes. By the time the database update is available, the threat has already compromised systems in a network and successfully covered up its traces

Zero Trust Maturity Model

whitePaper | April 28, 2023

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) leads the nation’s effort to understand, manage, and reduce cybersecurity risk, including by supporting Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies in evolving and operationalizing cybersecurity programs and capabilities. CISA’s Zero Trust Maturity Model (ZTMM) provides an approach to achieve continued modernization efforts related to zero trust within a rapidly evolving environment and technology landscape. This ZTMM is one of many paths that an organization can take in designing and implementing their transition plan to zero trust architectures in accordance with Executive Order (EO) 14028 “Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity” § (3)(b)(ii),1 which requires that agencies develop a plan to implement a Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). While the ZTMM is specifically tailored for federal agencies as required by EO 14028, all organizations should review and consider adoption of the approaches outlined in this document.

The Ransomware Threat

whitePaper | December 22, 2022

Ransomware continues to be among the most critical risks facing organizations of all sizes. Attackers have perfected techniques and business models that will pose a challenge to even the best prepared organizations. While the encryption of a high volume of computers on a network can potentially be mitigated by adequate backups, ransomware actors have discovered new avenues of extortion, such as threatening to release data stolen prior to encryption. While ransomware attacks are time consuming to perform, ransomware actors have managed to achieve scale through the introduction of “ransomware-as-a-service” operations, renting out their tools and infrastructure to other attackers in exchange for a cut of the profits.
