Not so long ago the majority of hacking occurred through weak links in operating systems. As those weaknesses disappeared, the focus shifted back to third-party software and devices. The result is that data is now at risk from the weakest link in your network. What that means is that even an app on someone’s cell phone with a connection to your network can become an open door for hackers. That is a general reason why app security is necessary. It does not matter if you are creating the app for in-house use, selling an app, or buying an app. What matters is that the open door is not only closed but secured.

Application Security Testing goes a long way in securing applications and software from malicious attacks or any kind of breach. With applications being the easiest target for hackers, testing is indispensable to protect a business-critical application from losing sensitive and confidential back-end data to probing parties.

Attackers are looking for the path of least resistance in your attack surface so that they can break into your high-value digital assets. To stay ahead, you have to think like an attacker too. That requires ongoing visibility and tracking of your attack surface.

Large enterprises still struggle to see their complete IT asset inventory — all managed and unmanaged devices. For compatible managed devices, agent-based tools can provide detailed information when deployed properly, and the scope of agent-based asset inventory management software does not extend to unmanaged or IoT devices.

AV, while still required, has been demoted. Attackers have become experts in “living off the land”.

These attackers take advantage of the fact that most endpoints are operated and maintained by everyday people, who often don’t have the ability to recognise an endpoint attack, let alone protect against it.

To gain the required visibility dedicated endpoint monitoring tools are now a necessity.

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) security provides organisations with the means to monitor, detect, and respond to endpoint threats. Through the application of EDR solutions and practices, organisations gain visibility into the endpoint of the network. EDR also provides organisations with the tools to protect the network against incoming threats as they occur.

Privileged Access Management (PAM) is a class of solutions that help secure, control, manage and monitor privileged access to critical assets.

Attackers love admin accounts, we believe you should adopt the concepts of “least” and “just in time” privileges, for example for 99% of your day you only need to be a normal user, you should only have admin access to certain systems for the 1% of your day when you need it.

Implementing PAM can be enough to make attackers move on to another target that is not using PAM.

Almost 90% of email attacks use fake sender identity. They contain no malware or malicious links but come from fraudulent senders. Current approaches to email security miss many of these phish. That’s because they focus on what messages contain, not who sent them.

Email remains the top vector for malware distribution and phishing, while email fraud continues to grow rapidly, with threat actors adapting tools and techniques across attack types to best capitalise on a range of vulnerabilities.

Malicious phishing emails make heavy use of web URL’s. Web Isolation technologies give you the option to make phishing pages read-only.

Your domain was once an impenetrable fortress. The crown jewels remained safely locked away in a datacentre you controlled. Today, your critical assets coexist in a distributed, hyper-connected cloud environment teeming with unmanaged digital devices, rogue web applications, and savvy adversaries intent on exploiting a rapidly expanding attack surface.

Your cybersecurity is only as strong as the weakest link in your ecosystem. A vulnerability anywhere in the supply chain escalates enterprise risk and jeopardises productivity, profitability, and reputation.
