Companies are increasingly reliant on storing sensitive data in cloud storage, which could be vulnerable to security threats and violate compliance requirements. At the same time, data breaches continue to grow more prevalent and costly. The Vormetric Cloud Encryption Gateway is a scalable solution that provides...
With big data analytics growing in popularity, many organizations have turned to MongoDB, which optimizes performance. Along with traditional sources of data, such as transactional systems and data warehouses, enterprises can now collect and leverage data from logs, social media interactions, sensors, and other...
Should you encrypt everything? There has never been more options for encrypting data across applications, databases, servers, storage, and the entire datacenter (and the cloud). This report cuts through the confusion to help you pick the best encryption options for your projects. The focus is on encrypting in the...
In developing markets such as Asia and the Middle East, how can security practitioners best prepare themselves to tackle the rapidly-changing threat landscape? Resilience is the key, says security leader Bruce Schneier.
Laws rarely, if ever, keep up with technology, but even if they could, the consequences could prove more harmful than the benefits. That was evident at a House hearing that addressed default encryption of mobile devices.
For too many IT organizations, complying with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) and corporate security policies has been far too costly, complex, and time consuming. Now, Vormetric offers a better way. Vormetric Tokenization with Dynamic Data Masking helps your security team address its...
When you're a hacker, time is on your side. Time to find a soft spot in your armor, to evade defenses, to seek out your most critical data. Increasingly, today's advanced threats circumvent traditional defenses - even sandboxing. You need a new approach.
This SlashGuide white paper helps you understand advanced...
A new survey from IDG Research Services tells the story: most organizations lack confidence in the ability of their security defenses to keep them safe. In fact, more than half said 100% security is a pipe dream. This summary by Network World lays out the facts but also presents an approach to detect malware and...
Data exfiltration describes the unauthorized transfer of data signifying a data breach. The data theft occurs during dwell time, the gap between when your network is infected and when the infection is detected. The Internet is evolving and unfortunately, cyber criminals are changing their tactics to exploit the...
What Gartner calls "the new threat landscape" is more than just a clever metaphor, it describes a new era of cyber threats aimed at outmaneuvering any security solutions that get in their way. As today's highly publicized data breaches illustrate, the threats launched by these sophisticated cyber criminals seem to be...
As the Gulf Information Security Expo & Conference enters its third year, event director Ayusha Tyagi discusses the event's heritage, objectives and key themes to be explored by security professionals this year.
The Government of Dubai has embarked on a project to build a world-class smart city that is safe and secure for its citizens. What kind of security challenges must be overcome to meet those goals?
BitSight Technologies conducted research on breached organizations and how they were impacted by botnets. The results are eye-opening, says CTO Stephen Boyer, offering insights from this study.
Experts like Gartner tell us we need layered cyber defenses that include next-generation firewalls (NGFW) and intrusion prevention systems (IPS) to identify and stop attacks at the gate combined with defenses to identify and help remediate successful breaches before they can spread. In fact, the Gartner adaptive...
Some of the most serious threats networks face today are "bots," remotely controlled robotic programs that strike in many different ways and deliver destructive payloads, self propagating to infect more and more systems and eventually forming a "botnet."
