Coalfire announces HITRUST Accelerator with AWS Security Assurances Services (AWS SAS)

Coalfire, a leading cybersecurity firm, announced HITRUST Accelerator, a new program that allows customers to achieve HITRUST CSF Validation up to 50% faster when compared with conventional methods. This program combines deep technical knowledge of AWS Security Assurance Services, LLC (AWS SAS) with Coalfire, a HITRUST External Assessor Organization, to streamline the entirety of the HITRUST Validation lifecycle. Organizations who attempt to prepare for HITRUST certification internally without the help of an experienced external assessor may have timelines in excess of 2 years to achieve HITRUST Certification. The HITRUST Accelerator program uses a three-step process that provides end-to-end support of an organization's preparation, remediation, and HITRUST Validation. This integrated approach enables Coalfire and AWS SAS to quickly identify compliance gaps, assist with technical remediation, simplify document creation, and expedite the Validated Assessment. By accelerating HITRUST Validation, customers will be able to offer significant assurances over their security and privacy controls, which enables them to focus on innovation and driving adoption.

BT launches transformational new security platform, Eagle-i, to predict and prevent cyber attacks

Relentless growth and ever-changing nature of the threat landscape dictates a new, proactive approach to cyber security Customers to benefit from advances in AI and automation, combined with BT's networking expertise, in transformational cyber defence platform Eagle-i builds on BT's recent security investment and partner ecosystem to address issues such as a more than 50 per cent increase in malware traffic over the last 6 months Business and public sector bodies continue to face an exponential growth in the volume and complexity of cyber attacks, with new research from BT identifying a more than 50 per cent increase in malware traffic over the last six months. Alongside a global shortage of skilled security professionals, organisations around the world are struggling to keep a lid on evolving cyber threats and maintain their defences. In response, BT is launching its most sophisticated cyber defence platform yet — Eagle-i. It combines BT's industry-leading network insight with advances in AI and automation to predict, detect and neutralise security threats before they get a chance to inflict damage. The platform has been designed to self-learn from the intelligence provided by each intervention, so that it constantly improves its threat knowledge and dynamically refines how it protects customers across a multi-cloud environment. Eagle-i will utilise an AI layer to provide real-time detection of issues and intelligent automated responses, enabling users to significantly speed up their reaction to security issues and outpace their cyber threats. It is also uniquely able to integrate with technologies from across the security ecosystem so that organisations can both optimise their capabilities and spot any holes in their defences without having to replace existing investments. The platform will underpin how BT protects its global operations and provide phased enhancements and increased functionalities for all BT's managed security services. Security is now at the top of the boardroom and government agenda yet many organisations are seeing their cyber risks increase to unmanageable levels. This situation demands a new, proactive approach. Eagle-i leverages the latest advances in AI and automation to continually monitor, learn and evolve so customers can stay a step ahead of cyber criminals.
