The modern threat actor is using the most advanced technologies to gain access to your systems, wreak havoc, and steal your sensitive data. In the constant cybersecurity “arms race,” IT providers, MSPs, and security professionals are incorporating these same advanced technologies to stop these sophisticated attacks. In this article, we’ll discuss the current malware threat and work to better understand what you can do to stop these attacks.
In today's fast-paced digital world, keeping up with the latest technology advancements is crucial for businesses to stay ahead of the competition. This is especially true in the world of IT infrastructure management, where technology is rapidly evolving and new solutions are being developed to meet the changing needs of businesses.
The Department of Defense (DoD) is on a mission to modernize its IT environments, radically changing the nature of its network operations (NetOps) in the department. Network availability and performance keep getting more integral to the DoD’s charter, which means downtime isn’t just troublesome, it’s a life-or-death matter. In this post, we’ll outline how key DoD modernization imperatives are affecting NetOps.
There is rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the finance sector. AI in banking is reshaping client experiences, including communication with financial service providers (for example, chat bots). Banks are exploring ways to use AI/ML to handle the high volume of loan applications and to improve their underwriting process.
With governments doubling down on logging compliance, many public sector organizations have been focusing on optimizing their log management, especially to ensure they retain logs for required periods of time. Logs — though seemingly straightforward — are the backbone of many mission-based use cases and therefore have the potential to accelerate mission success when centrally organized and leveraged strategically. In public sector, logs are instrumental in.
Virtualization has become an essential component of modern IT infrastructure, enabling organizations to optimize their resources, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. Microsoft Hyper-V, a popular virtualization technology, allows for the creation and management of virtual machines (VMs) on a physical server. It enables multiple operating systems to run simultaneously on the same hardware, providing both flexibility and scalability.
Lightrun enhances its enterprise-grade platform with the addition of RBAC support to ensure that only authorized users have access to sensitive information and resources as they troubleshoot their live applications. By using Lightrun’s RBAC solution, organizations can create a centralized system for managing user permissions and access rights, making it easier to enforce security policies and prevent security breaches.
Heatmaps are a beautiful thing. So are charts. Even better is that sometimes, they end up producing unintentional—or intentional, in the case of our happy o11ydays experiment—art. Here’s a collection of our favorite #chArt from our Pollinators Slack community. Today would be a great time to join if you’re into good conversation about OpenTelemetry, Honeycomb-y stuff, SLOs, and obviously, art.
We know that for many retailers and CPG companies, AI/ML solutions represent a game-changing technology. Yet, this journey seldom comes without a few expectable “growing pains”—from adoption and scale through a fully-fledged data-driven transformation. For multiple internal stakeholders across an organization, the end-to-end process can seem quite daunting—especially without a well-defined plan.
