A lot of businesses are thinking about the future of virtual work and how to make it successful in light of recent world events. For managers and employees used to working in a traditional office space, moving to remote work can be a challenge on many fronts. How do I and my team stay motivated and productive? What’s the best setup for a home office? Most importantly, how do I separate office work from the duties I normally perform around the home?

Security teams must protect attack surfaces that are becoming bigger and more distributed due to the growth of remote work, cloud infrastructure, and other dynamics. These teams understand that meeting this challenge at scale requires the successful incorporation of the appropriate technology into their security operations program.

Being a UI developer, I’ve learned one thing: It doesn’t matter how carefully you write your code. Suppose you’ve double-checked that you defined and called all functions the right way or followed all the best practices. Even then you’ll see that a tiny variable can sneak behind and create an error. Now, suppose you find out that for some unknown reason a form validation or submit button isn’t working.

According to a recent study, 96% of applications in the enterprise market use open-source software. As the open-source landscape becomes more and more fragmented, the task to assess the impact of potential security vulnerabilities for an organisation can become overwhelming. Ubuntu is known as one of the most secure operating systems, but why? Ubuntu is a leader in security because, every day, the Ubuntu Security team is fixing and releasing updated software packages for known vulnerabilities.

As the number of IoT devices scale, the challenges of provisioning and keeping them up to date in the field increases. Domotz, who manufacture an all-in-one, network monitoring and management device for enterprise IoT networks, found themselves with this challenge that was further compounded by their rapid software release cadence. One of the most crucial and difficult aspects for Domotz to solve was the delivery of automatic updates to the tens of thousands of devices deployed.

Graylog Enterprise v3.2 is out in the world, customers are using it and loving it, and we want to share with you what we've learned from them.

The Extract and Aggregate fields feature allows users to custom parse historical logs (post ingestion) and get an aggregated count on those newly parsed fields. Enterprise SREs work with large systems that consist of internally built components and external products. Debugging with logs from external products can be extremely challenging.

Coronavirus is changing everything. But amid all the talk of shut-downs, quarantine, and stock market crashes, another huge impact of the current crisis has been a little overlooked: it’s consequences for cybersecurity. With hundreds of thousands of employees now working from home – in the US, Europe, and all over the world – many companies have had to rapidly put in place systems for them to connect their home devices to corporate networks.

The following is a guest post from Jean Tunis, the principal consultant and founder of RootPerformance. You want implementations to be simple. Who doesn’t? But often, that’s not the case. SNMP is one of the oldest used protocols to manage a network. SNMP stands for simple network management protocol, but it might not have been all that simple for you. Maybe it was simple back in the late 1980s, when SNMP became a standard protocol for network monitoring.

A unified cloud infrastructure data model is fundamental for enterprises using multiple cloud vendors. Enterprise customers prefer to use multiple cloud vendors as a way to prevent being locked in and dependent on specific platforms.
