The Internet of Things (IoT) offers exciting new opportunities for growth and innovation. From fostering collaboration between organizations to enabling entirely new services, IoT is at the heart of many technological revolutions.
This latest survey is more confirmation that an oft-mentioned reality continues to be true – that the nature of threats keeps advancing and organizations frequently find themselves falling further and further behind. Far and away, the top reason given for increased stress isn’t low budgets or lack of training or failure of company leadership to prioritize security – even though these are among the reasons cited – it’s the “threat landscape is increasingly complex,” listed by 81 percent of respondents, nearly double the next-closest response.
Understanding the cyber attack surface Historically, the “attack surface” was limited to well-known points of external exposure—the traditional perimeter of websites, external IP addresses, and endpoints. Our cyber attack surface has expanded dramatically over the past five years, now encompassing our cloud estate, millions of devices at the edge, and mobile and remote workers, in addition to our internet-facing infrastructure. This expansion of the definition to include cloud, end-user, and internal assets has been driven by the increasing sophistication of cyber attacks. The table below breaks down today’s complex attack surface into several categories, based on a framework presented by…
Today, CrowdStrike reported a significant outage affecting multiple services, including their Falcon platform. The CrowdStrike team is actively working to resolve the issue and restore full functionality. Users are advised to monitor CrowdStrike’s official status page for real-time updates and follow any recommended actions provided by the company.
In today’s hyper-connected digital landscape, enterprises need to have a robust and cost-effective Security Service Edge (SSE) solution to combat increasingly sophisticated cyber threats and to support digital transformation.
To 100G and Beyond: The Next Frontier for SASE In the ever-evolving landscape of enterprise networking and security, a significant transformation is underway. Siloed, point product infrastructures are giving way to a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) approach, driven by the rapid adoption of cloud technologies, the increased reliance on collaboration tools, and the emergence of hybrid work models.
In today’s digital era, businesses require seamless connectivity and optimal application performance across their globally dispersed sites to stay productive. Combining Versa Networks Software-Defined Wide Area Networking (SD-WAN) with Hyperscalers‘ “private highways” is an innovative approach to achieve this goal.
Looking to learn the signs why its time to consider a new SD-WAN? Explore the key indicators that your current SD-WAN might be falling short here!
Today, AWS announced Tunnel-less Connect on Cloud WAN. This new capability provides customers with a simple, high-performance mechanism to build a global SD-WAN architecture using AWS Global Network as a middle-mile transport network. With this capability, SD-WAN appliances can natively peer with Cloud WAN using Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) without the need for tunneling. Native BGP support between SD-WAN appliances in a VPC and AWS Cloud WAN, without the need for tunnels, simplifies the extension of SD-WAN deployments in AWS cloud and enables access to AWS’ high bandwidth global network for branch-to-cloud connectivity. As part of this announcement, Versa Secure…
As cyber-attacks become increasingly sophisticated and the likelihood of threats in the infrastructure rise, our customers have explored new ways to not only secure the initial point of access but also mechanisms to continuously monitor their security posture.
