Today, we are excited to announce the launch of Sysdig Secure 2.4! With this release, Sysdig adds runtime profiling to enhance anomaly detection and introduces brand new interfaces that improve runtime security policy creation and vulnerability reporting. These features are focused on upgrading the experience of creating your security policy to detect security threats and attacks to your infrastructure and apps.

In our recent article, we outlined the benefits of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems, and why it is a must-have for every organization that operates in today’s cyberspace. It remains the best solution that proactively targets proliferating security threats, though SIEM also brings a number of risks and challenges. In this blog, we address these challenges and explain how they can be overcome by opting for SIEM-as-a-Service instead of on-premises or other options.

Identities are easy to fake, but not actions. Closely monitoring the behavior of a person can reveal a lot about their true intentions. Similarly, keeping a close watch on a machine’s activities can expose potential security problems. Blending security information and event management (SIEM) with user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA) can bring numerous users and devices belonging to an enterprise under surveillance.

We’re excited to announce the launch of our new product to the ManageEngine family, Device Control Plus — the Data loss prevention (DLP) solution you need to control removable devices at any stage.

The recent disclosure of yet another cloud security misconfiguration leading to the loss of sensitive personal information made the headlines this past week. This particular incident came with a bit more information from the indictment of the accused party, allowing us to piece together the revealed data and take an educated guess as to what may have transpired leading up to the loss of over 100 million credit card applications and 100 thousand social security numbers.

Five worthy reads is a regular column on five noteworthy items we’ve discovered while researching trending and timeless topics. This week, we explore how cyber threat intelligence can aid organizations. Enterprises often end up spending a great deal of money on monitoring and wiring their perimeter with defensive security solutions. But is merely incorporating security solutions like firewalls, antivirus software, intrusion detection systems, web filtering, and encryption enough?

OpsRamp controls and tracks access to modern hybrid infrastructure with secure remote consoles. Remote consoles help IT pros gain access to distributed resources and execute tasks on the target device/resource. All remote sessions are recorded for playback so that IT teams can use these session recordings for audit compliance, change management, and training.

Censorship appears to be increasingly tough not only in countries, which we traditionally view as authoritarian (Iran, North Korea, China, Russia, etc.) but in Western ones as well. It is not uncommon anymore for users from around the globe to find themselves unable to access their favorite resources.

“I’d like to pay with my credit card.” “Sure! Let me have your card. Could I also get your full name, phone number, and address?” “Yeah. It’s Logan Lovato, and I live at 1 Lemon Street, Anaheim. My number is 714.308.75xx.” This was a common occurence at retail stores across the US in the not too distant past. People shared their information and didn’t think much about it.

In this post we are going to demonstrate how to deploy a Kubernetes autoscaler using a third party metrics provider. You will learn how to expose any custom metric directly through the Kubernetes API implementing an extension service.
