This is the sixth part of my syslog-ng tutorial. Last time, we learned about syslog-ng source definitions and how to check the syslog-ng version. Today, we learn about syslog-ng destinations and the log path. At the end of the session, we will also perform a quick syntax check.
As an IT professional, it shouldn’t surprise you to know that there are 95 million attempted Active Directory (AD) attacks every day. But cyberattack concerns aren’t limited to on-premises Active Directory. In fact, last year, there were more than 25 billion attacks in Azure AD.
Splunk is a popular search and analysis platform. Many users of Splunk also have syslog-ng™ deployed in their environments. This guideline describes scenarios in which Splunk users can benefit from syslog-ng™ Premium Edition features and offers some technical guidance to optimize the syslog-ng™ configuration.
Today, data breaches and cyber-attacks are becoming so frequent that they aren’t a matter of “if” but “when,” making cybersecurity employee training a must.
Nowadays, advances in quantum computing are moving at a neck-breaking pace. Giants in the field have been faithfully executing roadmaps and delivering on milestones laid out several years ago. And while it is hard to predict when the advances will reach their breaking point, the threat to classical, public key cryptography is getting closer.
Attack paths are at the forefront of cybersecurity discussions today. But exactly what is an attack path? Why is Active Directory (AD) particularly vulnerable? And what can you do to protect your organization? This blog post covers all these questions and more.
This is the fifth part of my syslog-ng tutorial. Last time we had an overview of the syslog-ng configuration and had our first steps working with syslog-ng. Today we learn about syslog-ng source definitions and how to check the syslog-ng version and its enabled features.
Helsinki, Finland – March 16, 2023 – The US federal government has shown significant interest in Quantum-Safe communications during 2022, most evidently through Quantum Cybersecurity Preparedness Act, which mandates all electronic communications to be Quantum-Safe after a transition period. The federal government acts as a transformation leader that is followed by other actors in the public sector and even private enterprises.
In the digital age, concerns about data management and privacy are ever-increasing as the volume of data is increasing exponentially. As regulatory compliance and concerns about data privacy grow, it is the job of the IT industry to ensure data security, preventing leakage, through proper implementation of data sanitization procedures and tools.
Compliance mandates require many of our customers in regulated industries or in high-risk environments to prove adequate levels of protection for their data, no matter where it lives or travels. This is why we’ve continued to enhance the capabilities of both the YubiHSM 2 and YubiHSM 2 FIPS, the world’s smallest FIPS-validated and non-FIPS hardware security modules (HSMs). Today, we’re also excited to share that the YubiHSM 2 FIPS now meets FIPS 140-2, Level 3. Jump ahead to the “what’s new” section below to learn about the key new features in our YubiHSM 2 products.
Microsoft service accounts are a critical part of any Windows ecosystem because they are used to run essential services and applications, from web servers to mail transport agents to databases. But all too often, they are not used and managed properly — which leaves the organization at unnecessary risk of business disruptions, security breaches and compliance failures. Indeed, problems with service accounts are one of the top four issues that we at Quest uncover during security assessments.
Every organization can draw a line from their entire operation to privileged accounts and systems. Within every system a company uses, there’s a privileged account behind it to access everything from employee emails to sensitive databases and personally identifiable information (PII) data. No matter what risk you point at in an organization, you can draw a threat vector from that risk to a privileged account. With 70 percent of breaches linked to privilege abuse, organizations need a streamlined approach to protecting identities and privileged access. Because these accounts pose an elevated risk, it’s key to get them under control as soon as possible. Speed is key. There are significant benefits to accelerating the privileged access management (PAM) implementation process.
