Key learnings, how to prepare and the next big thing in security
/by RedSealVM Blog | January 15, 2021
The rules of the security game keep changing. We were finally getting close to perfecting the art of securing data centers and VPNs, when along came cloud, multiple cloud environments, and a pandemic forcing many of us to work remotely, disrupting all aspects of work and home life.
From a data center point of view, there was a great migration of who needed access to what, from where. Here are some thoughts of what to expect in security in 2021, some of the key lessons from the year and how businesses can prepare for the new year.
Security Think Tank: The year of the work-from-home hangover
/by RedSealComputer Weekly | 4 January 2021
After a year of unprecedented disruption thanks to Covid-19, it looks like remote working is set to remain with us for now, which means security strategies will change in 2021. What will this change look like, and what tools and services will be selling like hot cakes?
How Can We Vaccinate Our Networks?
/by RedSealSecurity Weekly | December 29, 2020
The news is flooded with updates regarding the COVID-19 vaccine. Cyberattacks are targeting the vaccine supply chain. Phishing attacks are exploiting sign-ups for the vaccine. There are even attacks to get access to vaccine data. Sounds a lot like our enterprises every day! We’re all learning about human immunology from the headlines, but what are the equivalent defenses for our networks? How do we achieve resilience at scale, when we don’t really have a network immune system?
The List of Known SolarWinds Breach Victims Grows, as Do Attack Vectors
/by RedSealData Center Knowledge | December 23, 2020
The SolarWinds breach story continues to get worse.
The list of known victims now includes US departments of Commerce, Defense, Energy, Homeland Security, State, the Treasury, and Health.
More worrisome for those responsible for cybersecurity at enterprise data centers, however, are the technology vendors that allowed the compromised SolarWinds Orion software into their environments.
Network Middle East: The Next Big Thing in Security
/by RedSealNetwork Middle East | December 2020 (Page 29)
Dr. Mike Lloyd, CTO at RedSeal, on “the next big thing in security”
We are in unprecedented times and no one can truly predict what lies ahead. What do we know is that threat actors are on the lookout for vulnerabilities and the sudden move to remote operations may have left loopholes that they can leverage. We sat down with security experts to understand how the security landscape may shape up next year.
Tool Sprawl – The Cybersecurity Challenge of 2021
/by RedSealSolutions Review | December 14, 2020
It’s not news that the pace of change in IT is extremely fast. What’s less well-known is the downside — tool sprawl. IT teams innovate at a breakneck pace, picking up whatever innovations suit their immediate needs. Security, in contrast, must protect the old applications that are still around, plus the new ones, plus the different platforms those new applications are built on. It creates a juggling challenge – how many different technologies can your security team juggle at once? If you have too many, how do you decide which are most important and which you must drop?
7 SecOps roles and responsibilities for the modern enterprise
/by RedSealSearchSecurity | December 7, 2020
Security operations, or SecOps, has had a direct, if increasingly challenging, mandate since the dawn of enterprise networking: detect, respond to, predict and prevent cyberattacks. But SecOps roles and responsibilities are shifting to accommodate growing interest in an offensive, rather than defensive, approach to cybersecurity. By staying ahead of threats and anticipating bad actors’ next moves, security leaders aim to thwart attacks before they happen.
Top 20 Predictions Of How AI Is Going To Improve Cybersecurity In 2021
/by RedSealForbes | December 5, 2020
Bottom Line: In 2021, cybersecurity vendors will accelerate AI and machine learning app development to combine human and machine insights so they can out-innovate attackers intent on escalating an AI-based arms race.

/by RedSealIT Pro | 4 November 2020
The UK’s tech skills gap is set to decrease as over half of workers are contemplating a career change into more tech-based roles, new research suggests.

What You Need to Know About CMMC Certification
/by Wayne Lloyd, Federal CTO, RedSealSupply Chain Brain | October 7, 2020
As the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) nears full implementation, affected organizations are scurrying to ensure they’ll pass the certification process.
The goal is simple: organizations must meet minimum cybersecurity standards, and in doing so, they do their part to improve national security. The stakes are extraordinarily high for the estimated 300,000 defense industrial base (DIB) organizations which will soon need to be certified to one of the five CMMC levels to be eligible to be awarded a federal contract. Simply stated: no certification, no contract. From the perspective of the U.S. Government and the Department of Defense, the stakes have always been high since the DIB plays such a critical role in the defense of our nation. The only way to ensure the protection of our data and the integrity of the supply chain is to hold industry to a higher standard.
