The Cyber Threat Risk – Oversight Guidance for CEOs and Boards

The time has come for CEOs and Boards to take personal responsibility for improving their companies’ cyber security. Global payment systems, private customer data, critical control systems, and core intellectual property are all at risk today. As cyber criminals step up their game, government regulators get more involved, litigators and courts wade in deeper, and the public learns more about cyber risks, corporate leaders will have to step up accordingly. This whitepaper focuses on the LogRhythm Security Intelligence Maturity Model, and how it is a valuable guide for building the necessary successive layers of threat detection and response capabilities.

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.

Cisco Secure and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework

whitePaper | December 6, 2022

Cybersecurity can seem overwhelming, and there’s plenty of long to-do lists. The Center for Internet Security (CIS) has the Critical Security Controls, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has its 27000-series publications, and ISACA manages its COBIT 5 framework. Layer those atop compliance mandates like the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act (GLBA) — and it’s often hard to know where to start.
