Ensuring application security is not just about protecting data. It’s about safeguarding your company's reputation, keeping customer trust, and adhering to increasingly stringent regulatory requirements. Read on as we delve into application security requirements: the pressing security threats impacting applications, the critical security requirements your application needs to meet, and the best practices to adopt to achieve robust application security.

Today, we are going to look at using the Splunk Stream App to hunt for threats across your network. Sing along with us! 🎼 “Islands in the stream” of our data… (Part of our Threat Hunting with Splunk series, this article was originally written by John Stoner. We’ve updated it recently to maximize your value.)

The Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange (TISAX) is the certification process for engaging in the Verband der Automobilindustrie (VDA), the German Association of the Automotive Industry, Information Security Assessment (ISA). The ENX Association, a collection of automobile manufacturers, suppliers, and four national automotive associations, established TISAX to create an overarching industry standard and make reporting more efficient.

Multi-cloud environments are getting plenty of buzz in recent years. It’s no wonder, really, that increased flexibility, risk mitigation, performance optimization and compliance adherence associated with the practice have drawn in new muli-cloud evangelists across the industry. For all the great benefits multi-cloud offers, it does present one significant challenge: how do you ensure a single point of control while establishing consistent security policies for all users?

What is the quantum threat, and is it real? The boy who cried (quantum) wolf: being honest about the threat and what it means for you A cryptographically-relevant quantum computer (CRQC) is a quantum computer that can run algorithms to crack or weaken existing (so-called “classical”) cryptography. Today, I’ll explain when — or if — this CRQC is likely to exist, what the real threat is, and how it might affect your data and assets.

Data retention policy will become a major focus for CIOs in 2021. Here’s why: First, enterprise organizations are producing larger volumes of data than ever before and utilizing enterprise data across a wider range of business processes and applications. To maximize its value, this data must be managed effectively throughout its entire life cycle - from collection and storage, through to usage, archiving, and eventually deletion.

The state of cybersecurity is in constant flux — meaning we must constantly iterate and revisit our systems to protect ourselves. With security logging and monitoring failures moving up to number 9 of the OWASP Top 10, organizations everywhere are revisiting their stance on network and application monitoring. This is great for getting a pulse check on security posture and is certainly key in any good strategy, but we might be forgetting something — IoT devices.

It is not very often that we see cybersecurity vendors put aside competitive differences and ambitions to work towards a common goal that benefits the entire cybersecurity community. The Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework (OCSF) has shown to be an example of a productive industry-wide collaboration to facilitate a more secure environment for businesses, governments and individuals all over the globe.
