FEATURES, INSIGHTS // Network Security
By using decoys to capture adversary tools, understand their techniques, and detect their actions during early attack phases, security teams can detect problems sooner and avoid long dwell times.
DDoS attacks are moving away from simply sending out broadcast traffic for massive disruption toward more complex and targeted attacks hitting the application layer of the network that can take down specific applications or services.
Cybersecurity teams need actionable insight into the latest techniques, tactics and procedures being used by attackers and a continuous understanding of their environment and anomalous behavior.
The best way to stay ahead of threats while enabling business agility to keep up with the latest technology advances is to look to the network as the first line of defense.
The arrival of 5G will fuel an explosion of never-before-seen IoT machines, introducing uncharted vulnerabilities and opening the door for cyber-criminals to compromise our increasingly intertwined cities.
Because attackers will exploit the paths of least resistance and move laterally through the enterprise, visibility must include all managed and unmanaged assets (enterprise IoT, shadow IoT, legacy systems, etc.)
Security-Driven Networking is a new, strategic approach to security that enables the seamless expansion of network environments and services without ever compromising on security.
Adoption of 5G not only exposes potential new attack surfaces, but given execution happens at super-speed, it also changes the required nature of any defense.
Many cybersecurity companies claim to have introduced AI capabilities into their solutions, but most fall short of true AI because their underlying infrastructure is too small or their learning models are incomplete.
While we can’t turn our attention away from gathering data, we must devise new ways to deal with the onslaught of data. Humans simply can’t keep up, and the problem is getting worse.
