Ever thought about what to do to prevent deadly insider attacks? Even with the implementation of intrusion prevention systems and antivirus software, these threats persist. And their cost has risen by 44% over the past two years. In 2023, insiders have been responsible for the unauthorized leakage of almost 1 billion records. Amid this adversity, user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA) has emerged as a modern enterprise security solution.

Staying ahead of the cybersecurity curve can feel like running a marathon uphill, and the right SIEM is key to leveling the playing field. Smarter SIEM solutions have emerged from the cloud to address the changing demands of today’s security operations. Unlike legacy SIEMs, which were designed for on-premises deployments and have limited scalability, more innovative next-gen solutions offer cloud-native SaaS models that provide greater flexibility and scalability.

Picture this: Your CEO comes into your office and asks, “What’s our security posture, and where’s our greatest area of risk? I’m particularly worried about this new emerging threat group. What defenses or detections do we have around that?” You: “…” Enter the MITRE ATT&CK® framework and Devo’s MITRE ATT&CK Adviser app—built to help you tell the business where your risks are and what it would take to address them.

The right SIEM can make or break your SOC. While there are a lot of security solutions and platforms for you to choose from, ask yourself–how will they make life in your SOC better than before? If you make the right choice, you’ll empower your SOC to work more efficiently, more effectively, and more proactively. As you do your research and consider which SIEM is right for you, make sure it checks these boxes. Your analysts will thank you.

As one of the oldest attack methods, malware is both well-known to security professionals and well-loved by malicious actors. According to the Independent IT-Security Institute, the total amount of malware has exponentially increased since 2008.

Every day, an average of 450,000 new malware are designed to wreak havoc on businesses, governments, and average citizens. Aside from the financial implications of malware, the reputational damage for companies and the psychological impact on victims (especially with ransomware) are enough to scare anyone at the thought of dealing with a malware attack. But it’s not all bad news! There is a way of protecting your devices and cyberspace with a proactive method.

If your idea of a dream job is hunting for vulnerabilities and staying current on emerging cyberthreats, then the role of a cybersecurity researcher could be your ideal match. These investigative specialists dedicate their hours to unearthing security issues and concocting protective countermeasures. If you’re interested in learning more about what this role entails, here’s a breakdown.

Today’s enterprise networks are diverse and complex. Rather than the simple network perimeter of old, bad actors can attack through multiple entry points, including cloud-based applications. Not to mention, these networks generate massive amounts of transactional data. Because enterprise networks have become larger, they’re more difficult to secure and manage.

SOC Analyst Appreciation (SAAD) Day 2023 has come and gone. With great speakers and great sessions, it was a can’t-miss event for SOC analysts and anyone else looking to better appreciate their SOCs and see what’s on the horizon for cybersecurity. But hey, we realize that despite your best efforts, some SOC teams and leaders couldn’t make it the day of.

Zero trust is a philosophy and practice all about securing data across your entire network. Zero trust means trust no one — authenticate everyone. Adopting this philosophy means your organization assumes that every single user, device and service that attempts to connect to its network is hostile until proven otherwise.
