Hey Everyone, We recently did a webinar with Christian Heger, technical head of the DATEV SOC, as well as Sebastian Schmerl, head of cyber defense of Computacenter. They shared their 6-month path of modernizing their security operations with help of Splunk technology and the MITRE ATT&CK framework. As we weren’t able to address all of the questions during the webinar, we discussed these afterwards and share them in this blog post as a Q&A follow-up.

Data destruction is an aggressive attack technique observed in several nation-state campaigns. This technique under MITRE ATT&CK 1485, describes actions of adversaries that may “..destroy data and files on specific systems or in large numbers on a network to interrupt availability to systems, services, and network resources. Data destruction is likely to render stored data irrecoverable by forensic techniques through overwriting files or data on local and remote drives”.

For some organizations, even the best isn’t quite enough. That’s why JFrog Xray provides a way for you to specify your own additional data, to detect even more sensitive issues in your binaries before they can reach production. JFrog Xray is a tool for DevSecOps teams to gain insight into the open source components used in their applications.

We recently received a notification from a concerned user, because he had found a “vulnerability” in Pandora FMS. Besides, not just any vulnerability but one that seemed to give root access to the system. Next, this user called k4m1ll0 wrote a post in Medium warning the community about this vulnerability.

Starting April 21, 2020, all requests to Elasticsearch Service on Elastic Cloud must use HTTP over TLS (HTTPS) with support for TLS 1.2. We’ve decided to make this change in the best interest of our users so we can ensure the security of data in transit and stay up to date with modern encryption, security protocols, and practices.

AWS VPC Flow Logs record details about the traffic passing through your application, including requests that were allowed or denied according to your ACL (access control list) rules. It also has information about the IP addresses, and ports for each request, the number of packets, bytes sent, and timestamps for each request. This information brings deep visibility and the ability to improve your security posture over time.

Continuing Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) is a program of the Department of Homeland Security designed to enhance cybersecurity across the Federal government. By deploying a standardized stack of pre-approved security tools, CDM ensures that small and large agencies alike can protect their networks from common threats.

Not long ago, Microsoft announced the upcoming launch of its all-new version of the Edge browser that’s built on Chromium. The launch date for the new Chromium-based Edge browser, January 15, 2020, is almost here, and we on the Browser Security Plus team are ready to provide Edge browser management support for all versions. How can Browser Security Plus manage the new Edge?

We break down the timeline of the number one threat to ecommerce sites today – Magecart! This timeline includes all the significant Magecart attacks in 2019. With 4,800 formjacking attacks each month alone, this timeline only represents a small proportion of attacks reported in the public domain in 2019. Detect Web-skimming, Formjacking, and Supply Chain attacks before a Data Breach occurs with Magecart detection.

Hey, there. This is part five of the Elastic SIEM for home and small business blog series. If you haven’t read the first, second, and third blogs, you may want to before going any further. In the Getting started blog, we created our Elasticsearch Service deployment and started collecting data from one of our computers using Winlogbeat. In the Securing cluster access blog, we secured access to our cluster by restricting privileges for users and Beats.
