Businesses often perceive vulnerability scanning as an alternative to penetration testing. This perception is wrong. An organization conscious of cybersecurity must include both these activities in their business processes and make sure that they work in unison. Missing out on one of them greatly decreases the security posture, both for web application security and network […]
DevSecOps stands for development, security, and operations. Similar to DevOps or SecOps, it is a concept that joins two previously separate roles into a unified environment. DevSecOps teams are responsible for providing conditions for continuous secure software development. Being a newer concept than DevOps, DevSecOps was coined to emphasize the importance of IT security processes […]
The lack of cybersecurity talent is nothing new. It’s a problem that all businesses have been facing for several years and it’s getting worse. There have been many proposals on how to narrow the gap, but so far all efforts have been futile. Let’s have a look at what is causing the gap, what can […]
No matter how well you manage your security posture, there is always a chance that you will become a victim of a cyber attack. That is why every organization, no matter the size, should be prepared to react to a cyber incident. The key element of such preparation is a cyber incident response plan (IRP). […]
A cybersecurity framework is a set of guidelines for business environments to manage security effectively. Cybersecurity frameworks are adaptive and usually cover multiple aspects of cybersecurity programs, including security controls, appropriate safeguards and mitigation, appropriate activities, risk management programs, protective technology, continuous monitoring, as well as cybersecurity incident response planning and recovery planning. They can […]
DevSecOps is a practice that merges the work done by development (Dev), security (Sec), and IT operations teams (Ops) to deliver the most efficient and effective software development practices. But why is it still so rare? Let us take a look at the difficulties of implementing DevSecOps and ways to eliminate them. Why DevOps but […]
Who is responsible for the software development lifecycle (SDLC) in your business? It may seem like the CEO and/or Board of Directors are ultimately responsible for the SDLC. However, with changing times and regulations, such as the SEC’s crackdown on security incident reporting affecting enterprise CISOs like in the case of SolarWinds, the responsibility may […]
Weak passwords and password reuse are still some of the most serious concerns for cybersecurity. There are several ways to increase password security but they are often not adopted by users and administrators. Here’s how you can make sure that sensitive data in your web application is not compromised by malicious hackers due to insecure […]
DevSecOps is a relatively new approach to continuous software development processes in agile environments. It is an extension of DevOps (Development + Operations) that includes the automation of security. The order of component terms in the DevSecOps name, however, may lead to incorrect application security approaches. That is why some sources propose SecDevOps as a […]
Server-side request forgery (SSRF) is the only type of vulnerability that has its own category in the OWASP Top 10 2021 list. Several major cybersecurity breaches in recent years, including Capital One and MS Exchange attacks, involved the use of SSRF as one of the break-in techniques. SSRF vulnerabilities let an attacker send crafted requests […]
