Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

A ransomware note doesn’t take down a business. The weeks of downtime after it does. That’s the distinction I hear missed most in boardroom conversations about cyber risk. Leaders ask what it costs to stop an attack. The harder question, and the one that actually decides whether a business comes out the other side, is what it takes to keep operating while you recover from one.

AI didn’t just make defenders faster. It made attackers faster too. The moment both sides got access to the same speed, speed stopped being the advantage. With speed no longer separating attackers from defenders, the deciding factor moved somewhere else. Ask a CISO what’s actually kept agentic security out of reach, and it comes down to this: they can’t afford to build it, and even if they could, they’d struggle to trust it. Neither half of that problem outweighs the other.

When configuring storage on local servers or Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices, RAID and JBOD are the two common options. Both involve combining multiple drives into a single volume, but they differ significantly in how data is distributed, protected and accessed. Choosing the wrong configuration can lead to performance degradation or data loss. This post covers the differences between JBOD and RAID and identifies the optimal storage types for backups and VM datastores.

On World Wide Web Day (August 1), it’s worth celebrating what the web has made possible. It enabled remote work to function at scale, SaaS platforms to deliver capabilities in days instead of months and instantaneous collaboration through shared docs, chats, whiteboards and task tools that update in real time.

Learn how Google Drive encryption works, whether you can password protect Google Docs, and how to encrypt Google Drive files and folders for extra security. If you’re interested in encrypting or getting more privacy for your cloud storage with a Google Drive encrypted folder, then there are methods to encrypt files before uploading them to Google, or to password-protect a Google Doc.

Defensive asymmetry. The visibility gap. The defender’s dilemma. These terms describe a significant challenge: attackers often succeed because they uncover information defenders either don’t know about or can’t act on quickly enough.

Microsoft Sentinel gives security teams a strong cloud-native foundation. Securonix Threat Analytics extends that foundation with behavior-driven analytics, AI-driven correlation, risk-based prioritization, and continuously curated threat intelligence, without replacing your SIEM, duplicating data, or disrupting existing workflows. Organizations use Securonix to improve detection coverage, accelerate investigation and response, and maximize Microsoft Sentinel ROI.

Detection engineering has become one of the least questioned costs in the modern SOC. Teams write queries, tune thresholds, maintain exceptions, and build enrichment logic because that work has gradually become part of running Microsoft Sentinel. While necessary, it still relies heavily on manual effort. Microsoft Sentinel gives security teams a strong foundation for collecting telemetry, investigating incidents, and orchestrating response.
