It’s Time to Establish True Zero Trust and Enable Teams to Work From Anywhere

Your VPN Won’t Cut it Anymore

At the beginning of 2020, organizations scrambled to provide employees with the means to work remotely. As we continue into a remote-first world, organizations need to enable people to work from anywhere, with the same security and productivity as their HQ.

The only problem: VPN and SD-WAN-based networks weren’t designed for this new normal. Employees are unable to access the resources they need to perform their job, responsiveness of enterprise applications are significantly slower, and IT is overwhelmed with the sheer volume of troubleshooting legacy network issues.

This eBook with NetFoundry will demonstrate how to rapidly overcome the security, performance, and network management constraints of legacy networks and VPNs as you transition toward a longer-term remote work strategy.

The Importance of Having a CISO Strategy for Small Business IT Teams

Avast CISO, Jaya Baloo, Discusses Cybersecurity Solutions for Today’s Businesses

One size doesn’t fit all when it comes to businesses. Some may have a full IT team on staff. Others may not, and many are limited by resources and budget. With cyberattacks targeting small to mid-sized businesses at an all-time high, it’s critical for IT consultants and service providers to be having those conversations with SMBs about enterprise grade security protection, tailored exactly to their needs.

In an interview with Richard Tubb, the IT Business Growth Expert, Jaya Baloo covers:

  • The best ways to present cybersecurity to SMBs and explain its importance
  • The biggest cyber threats faced by SMBs today and the best defense strategy
  • How SMBs with limited budgets and/or IT resources can still stay protected
  • The importance of a response plan in case an SMB is impacted by a cyber attack
  • The future of the cybersecurity landscape and the role of emerging technologies

Securing Containers in the Cloud

A blueprint for container and orchestration best practices.

Few would argue against the benefits containers and containerized applications running on cloud resources have brought to businesses. Containers enable agile deployment capabilities, so require less coordination and oversight than on-premise or virtualization infrastructure, and in many cases, offer more flexibility. These new architectures and dynamic infrastructures that support and automate application deployment and management have introduced security challenges as well.

Download this white paper to learn:

  • About container orchestration, microservices, and service meshing
  • How to identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in containerized environments
  • Solutions to security issues that containers can create

Cloud has evolved. Are your security tools keeping pace?

Why Threat Stack customers are switching to Lacework

Organizations that bought early cloud security products are finding that those tools aren’t keeping up with dynamic environments ruled by APIs and microservices on containers, and server instances that constantly scale up and down.

More than 20 customers migrated from Threat Stack to Lacework last quarter. Without a major investment in time or security expertise, they gained new insight into their environment, decreased time spent on compliance programs, and reduced alert fatigue.

Are you ready to experience the difference?

Security Monitoring and SIEM

In today's globalized, digital economy, it's essential to monitor and guard your company's data against increasingly advanced cyber threats.

This is getting increasingly complicated by security skill shortage and alert-fatigue caused by too many security tools and not enough people.

An effective security program is a balance of people, process, and technology. Security monitoring involves the deployment of a Log Management and SIEM solution, that uses industry best practices proactively, and has the people to manage 24/7 monitoring.

This whitepaper by Cygilant covers why it is important to consider each of these areas in the decision-making process and where to leverage a trusted partner.

Whitepaper: How Financial Services Security Leaders Can Confidently Face Their Next Audit

Chief information security officers (CISOs) and CIOs responsible for security struggle with limited resources to confront complex digital threats and compliance mandates. The threats are becoming more sophisticated. Attacks more numerous. Costs are soaring. Creating an effective in-house security program for mid-market financial services is getting harder every day.

Luckily, the emergence of a new service approach to security—called managed detection and response —is the basis for a business partnership that results in a continuous, stronger, more up-to-date security program for mid-market financial services firms.

This whitepaper explores a new, auditable approach by third-party service providers to create and strengthen a modern security capability in order to add value for your business.

Whitepaper: SOC-as-a-Service for Law Firms

A Security Operations Center (SOC) is a team of cybersecurity professionals whose task it is to monitor networks for cyberattacks and suspicious behavior, as well as improve internal security controls and procedures. Some large enterprises will have their own SOC, but for many law firms that's simply out of the question.

For a law firm, a managed SOC service company like Cygilant can make all the difference. In addition to providing expertise and a repeatable SOC process for effective and scalable operations, SOC analysts can provide detailed reviews of triggered events, and advise on security threats with in-depth knowledge about a law firm's environment, instead of treating each alert in isolation as good or bad.

Download this whitepaper from Cygilant to learn more about how to select a Security Operations Center as a Service Provider for your law firm.
