Global Cybersecurity Report

July 11, 2017

Our global economies, industries, and competitive markets require that we become progressively more interconnected to one another. On both a personal and commercial level, we are creating deep levels of connectivity between multiple communities and devices via laptops, televisions, thermostats, security systems, appliances, mobile and music devices, commercial equipment, building management systems and the list goes on. This myriad of connected devices is known as the Internet of Things (IoT). The economic and, in many cases, security benefits of being connected to the Internet and the interconnectivity of systems, customers, employees, trading partners, and equipment are strong drivers of doing business today and remaining competitive. In the words of John Chambers, former CEO of Cisco, “…picture living in a world where everything is connected, and the possibilities that creates is limitless. The industry is on the precipice of an explosion of IoT-related products and services coming to market.”

Guide to Cloud Security Posture Management Tools

whitePaper | June 16, 2023

Good cloud security hygiene starts with complete visibility into the security and compliance posture of every resource you deploy into your cloud. It’s one thing to achieve this visibility in a single cloud environment—you can lean heavily on the native monitoring and auditing tools of your cloud provider, using third-party solutions to fill in gaps (e.g., threat detection)—but in a multi-cloud architecture, maintaining robust cloud security posture becomes exponentially more complex. It is much more difficult to achieve centralized visibility as well as consistently enforce policies and compliance rules within a multi-cloud environment. It’s also more complicated to detect threats and fix vulnerabilities quickly due to the sheer complexity of threats across distributed, multilayered architectures. You can address these challenges, though—and you need to, if you want to take advantage of multi-cloud architecture without compromising on security.

Closing the Human Error Gap in Cybersecurity

whitePaper | June 23, 2023

The increasing reliance on digital technology has made cybersecurity a critical concern for organizations worldwide. While technological advancements have provided businesses with unprecedented opportunities, they have also exposed them to a myriad of cyber threats. In this context, human error has emerged as a significant vulnerability. While an overwhelming majority of the human error related wrong decisions are unintentional, they can happen to anyone. This whitepaper aims to provide a comprehensive approach to closing the human error gap in cybersecurity, focusing on both cybersecurity awareness training and proactive security measures that minimize the need for users to be cyber smart.

Security Operations Maturity Model

whitePaper | February 20, 2020

As the threat landscape continues to evolve, your cybersecurity efforts must follow suit. With your security operations center (SOC) at the core of your offense against threats, you must ensure that it can handle anything that comes its way. To be effective, you need to mature your SOC to stop threats early — before damage occurs. Whether your SOC is a virtual team of two to three or a 24x7 operation, maturing your security operations capabilities will help you achieve a faster mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR) to cyberthreats. This white paper explores LogRhythm’s Security Operations Maturity Model (SOMM), which explains how to measure the effectiveness of your security operations. Through the model, you can learn how to mature your security operations capabilities, improving your resilience to cyberthreats.
