The 3 D’s of DevOps: Develop, Deploy and Deliver – DEVELOP

In today’s increasingly mobile environments, business users require new apps – or new features for existing apps – at an accelerated pace. Not only are there more projects, users demand new code is up and running faster than ever.

This Battlecard presents the key information about the ways IBM BlueMix enables enterprises of all sizes to accelerate the development process by eliminating overhead previously required to spin up development environments. The resulting faster time to value delivers real bottom-line benefits.

Unstructured Data Management: 3 Points to Consider

The 2014 Digital Universe report by the IDC/EMC estimates that the digital universe is doubling in size every two years, and it is only expected to get bigger. With such massive amounts of data circulating the web, organizations are looking for solutions that will allow them to manage these data streams in real-time. Luckily, many solutions are available. However, for most organizations there is no single solution to solve all of their data challenges. The answer is often found in a combination of internal tools and external services, but with so many solutions available, where do you start?

WP Synful Knock

SYNful Knock is a stealthy modification of the router's firmware image that can be used to maintain persistence within a victim's network. It is customizable and modular in nature and thus can be updated once implanted. Even the presence of the backdoor can be difficult to detect as it uses non-standard packets as a form of pseudo-authentication.

The initial infection vector does not appear to leverage a zero-day vulnerability. It is believed that the credentials are either default or discovered by the attacker in order to install the backdoor. However, the router's position in the network makes it an ideal target for re-entry or further infection. Read this Whitepaper to learn more.

WP How Secure Do You Want to Be

Protecting against advanced cyber-attacks requires, among other things, that you meet the same level of sophistication as your attackers. Unfortunately, most current security technologies fail to meet that bar, resulting in organizations being breached when they thought they were protected.

A resulting breach can be devastating, leading most organizations to re-evaluate their security program. Critically evaluating your security program in its entirety and looking for the areas it can be improved is a daunting task.

WP Enemies in Our Midst

It’s not a question of if your organization will be breached. It’s a question of when.

Most attackers remain active in environments for a significant amount of time before being discovered. And only a small percentage of organizations discover the presence of advanced attackers themselves—most need to be informed by law enforcement or a proactive third-party security firm. By then, an attacker could do a great deal of damage.

A compromise assessment answers the all-important question: Have you been breached?
