In my work as a technical evangelist at Cribl, I regularly talk to companies seeing annual data growth of 45%, which is unsustainable given current data practices. How do you cost effectively manage this flood of data while generating business value from critical data assets?
Companies are increasingly adopting managed Kubernetes services, such as Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), to build container-based applications. Leveraging a managed Kubernetes service is a quick and easy way to deploy an enterprise-grade Kubernetes cluster, offload mundane operations such as provisioning new nodes, upgrading the OS/Kubernetes, and scaling resources according to business needs.
We often think of DDoS attacks as volumetric malicious traffic targeted against organizations that effectively take a service offline. Most frequently detected by anomalous behavior found in NetFlow, sFlow, IPFIX, and BGP data, what may not be well understood is how the DDoS mitigation works and how it’s possible to visualize the effectiveness of the mitigation during and after an attack.
For server administrators tasked with ensuring the reliable operation of their web applications, the thought of a lurking cyberattack can be one to lose sleep over. An attack on your system and the services you provide could render your web applications unresponsive. What’s worse, important information that depends on privacy and the careful storing of data is put at risk.
Today, Cribl is releasing The State of Security Data Management 2022 in collaboration with CITE Research. The report examines the challenges that enterprises are facing as they work to balance evolving business priorities with cyber threats. The report was conducted in September 2022 and surveyed 1,000 senior-level IT and security decision-makers. The survey found that, although most organizations are confident in their data management strategy, few believe it’s actually sustainable.
“I’m not a big enough business… I’m too small… no one will want to hack me.” “I don’t have anything of any importance that anyone would want… I’m not terribly concerned.” “It hasn’t happened to us yet, so it isn’t something I’m worried about.” “What you’re proposing seems like overkill to me. And besides, we don’t have the extra funds in our budget anyway.
File Integrity Monitoring, aka as FIM, is a must-have feature for anyone in charge of security. With FIM, one can detect when a critical file, such as a file that belongs to the Operating System, or a key configuration file, is changed. In most cases, configuring FIM is straightforward: If the file changes then generate an alert.
