I have been a regular user of Pandora FMS for years and the best I can say about them is that they always have something new to add to my learning. Today, for example, I rediscovered the Two-Factor authentication in Pandora FMS! *And I did it, in part, through this article already published on their blog Although I devote myself to programming (and it is what I like to do the most), I am more of a Web 2.0 person than a Web 3.0 person because I consider that the latter has been abused too much.

If you help to manage cloud environments, you’re probably familiar with the concept of identity lifecycle management.

But merely understanding identity lifecycle management isn’t enough to administer modern cloud identities effectively. You also need a way to automate identity lifecycle management at massive scale.

Healthcare providers must be extremely vigilant in their cybersecurity defense posture. After all, vulnerabilities in the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) cost hospitals nearly $21 billion in 2021. New security discoveries by Ivanti partner Cynerio recently made that statistic personal for many providers. While working with an existing healthcare customer, Cynerio found five zero-day vulnerabilities in Aethon TUG autonomous robots – an IoMT device found in many healthcare facilities.

ZScaler delivers a suite of well-regarded products for helping IT securely move from network infrastructure to the cloud, using principles of zero trust. According to their website, they have 5,600+ customers and process 200B+ daily transactions.

Cybersecurity can often seem intimidating for IT teams. After all, things like “threat hunting,” “red teaming,” and “blue teaming” are not used in IT operations.

You’re probably already using log data as part of your IT operations incident response.

Keeping your systems secure is a never-ending challenge. Not only is it necessary to monitor and secure your own tech stack, but each new service a company uses creates another potential avenue for bad actors to try to exploit for their own ends.

It’s that time of the year again! The MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK evaluation results are in and generating quite the buzz in the industry. And for good reason. The MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK evaluation focuses on a tool’s ability to prevent and detect cyber attacker behaviors. Now in its fourth round of testing, it has become the de-facto standard for how security solutions perform against different advanced cyberattack scenarios.
