Good morning! Good article on the vast number of types of Cyberattacks and how to respond to them. Comcast Business can assist with many of these with the underpinning by Fortinet, SentinelOne and a soon to be announced powerhouse in the MDR space! #iworkforcomcast #cyberattacks #cyberprotection

The recent CrowdStrike outage has highlighted critical vulnerabilities in our reliance on single-vendor IT infrastructures. Millions of systems were impacted, costing businesses billions in losses. In our latest blog post, we delve into how Geyser Data's airgap tape solutions can enhance data security and reliability. Learn how our technology not only adds an extra layer of protection but also enables a robust multi-cloud strategy to prevent similar disruptions in the future. #DataSecurity #CloudSolutions #GeyserData #BusinessContinuity #TechResilience #TaaS #AirGap #MultiCloud https://lnkd.in/gVeJHGYc

An interesting read on Scatter Spider's TTPs but more importantly how #NDR is essential to illuminate EDR's and SIEM's blind spots in secure hybrid organizations. https://lnkd.in/ecMJtfuh

I got a demo of two products in the past week, @Field Effect and @Fortinet FortiSASE. Both of these products are impressive. More specifically, I am impressed with the huge set of features these products offer. Feild Effect has a massive set of security capabilities. When I was building a SOC in 2017, it took a dozen tools to do what this single tool can do. This is platformization at work: fewer tools, more capabilities, integrated approach. There are a lot of operational benefits to this approach. What do you think about platformization. #fortinet #fieldeffect #sase #mdr #xdr #endpointsecurity

I’m going to say it because weird stuff like CrowdStrike is going to kick companies in the pants…. So…. 1. Have you identified your critical services? What services or goods do you provide? 2. Do you know how each service is performed - from the people, processes, tech and infrastructure? Where is you data in the conversation - is it classified, secured, owned? 3. Do you have BCP documented? Not just documented but reviewed and updated regularly? 4. And have you run a risk appraisal to know what a service outage would mean to your Reputation? Customers? Bottom line? Employees? And small techy question - what vendor has a high level of integration in your business that if they failed it could end you? This has to go further than cyber security. 5. And lastly - what is more important right now that 1-4 right now? If your organisation has this nailed, I would love to talk to you, so please DM me. #STATE3Enterprise #S3E #currentstate #knowtheimpactofchange #doesanyonereadthehashtags
