Penetration testing (pen testing) simulates cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities in a network or system. It helps organizations assess security defenses and address weaknesses before attackers exploit them

A company firewall is the first defense against threats to your network, server, and devices. Learn about the new role of company firewalls.
As the threat landscape has become more complex (and more destructive), organizations have struggled to keep up. MDR offloads the burden of cybersecurity onto stronger technologies and security experts who can manage threats around the clock.
Changing trends often provide insights into emerging threats and tactics, so staying on top of the latest numbers in cybercrime helps industry leaders understand the landscape and learn how to defend their businesses.
Cybersecurity in the hybrid work era isn’t for the faint of heart. Here are the questions to consider for a permanent remote workforce.
In this post, we’ll break down everything you need to know about zero trust security and which solutions to consider at your organization to avoid a catastrophe.
Cyber insurance may be the one segment of the insurance industry that doesn’t fit our preconceived notions of the business. Ordinarily, when describing insurance, you might use words such as steady, sedate, or even dull. Policies undergo little change from year to year, predictable claims are submitted, payouts are promptly issued, and insurers earn a good rate of return.
New cybersecurity standards are taking shape resulting from a series of steps taken by the Biden administration in the wake of the Solar Winds, Microsoft Exchange, and Colonial Pipeline cyber incidents.
One of the biggest challenges in cybersecurity is foreseeing the next new threat. Because, unlike other disaster scenarios, cyberattacks are constantly evolving.
One of the most intriguing cybersecurity trends of the last year has been the sudden decline in ransomware. The file-encrypting attacks have accounted for only 5% of malware payloads in recent months, down from 60% in early 2017. That’s a huge shift in direction for hackers. But just as quickly as ransomware has declined, a new threat has skyrocketed: cryptojacking.
Just as a new wave of coronavirus infections surged across the globe last month, U.S. cybersecurity agencies released a startling statement: “CISA, FBI, and HHS have credible information of an increased and imminent cybercrime threat to U.S. hospitals and healthcare providers.”
Large organizations like the Colonial Pipeline get major media attention when they experience ransomware attacks, while incidents at smaller businesses rarely make headlines. This uneven level of attention might lull many small- and medium-sized business (SMB) owners into a false sense of security. While cyberattacks on major businesses get most of the publicity, SMB ransomware is in some ways a bigger threat.
