There’s bad news and not-so-bad news in the world of cybersecurity. In a recent report, Google revealed a significant rise in zero-day attacks, those exploiting previously unknown software vulnerabilities. However, despite the increase, there’s a silver lining.
Hackathon events like Pwn2Own Automotive 2024 play a crucial role in shedding light on zero-day attacks and significantly benefit security teams in several ways. These events bring together talented security researchers, ethical hackers, and industry professionals to uncover and demonstrate vulnerabilities in automotive technologies, including zero-day exploits.
“Zero-day Summer” refers to the period during summertime when cybercriminals take advantage of the vulnerabilities in software, applications, and computer systems that remain undetected and unpatched by security teams.
We discuss a real-life example of a zero-day exploit, focusing on the MOVEit Transfer Software, and how MixMode can detect and mitigate such threats before they become widespread.
With more and more large organizations relying on technology to conduct business, the need for a skilled CISO has become increasingly important. No longer just overseeing IT security efforts, the CISO is now responsible for a wide range of cyber defenses from data protection to compliance and even physical security.
Zero-day attacks are considered the number one cybersecurity threat to company networks large and small. Understand what they are, why it’s so hard to detect them, and how artificial intelligence (AI) is helping to solve this modern problem.
Hosted by Mark Ehr, Senior Consulting Analyst for 451 Research Advisors and Igor Mezic, Chief Scientist and CTO for MixMode on Tuesday, November 1st at 1pm EST / 10am PST, they will discuss why security analytics needs to include advanced Third-Wave AI, which autonomously learns normal behavior and adapts to constantly changing network environments, to address the next generation of cyberthreats and increase SOC productivity.
In the report, 451 Research explains why security analytics needs to include advanced Third-Wave AI, which autonomously learns normal behavior and adapts to constantly changing network environments, to address the next generation of cyberthreats and increase SOC productivity.
In our newest case study, “How a Major U.S. City Rapidly Modernized Its Cybersecurity Defenses,” we share how the City cut its cyber tool footprint in half, gained visibility into advanced foreign adversary attacks, and greatly improved the productivity of its SOC staff.
Of all the challenges facing the modern SOC, two stand out among the most persistent and difficult to overcome: an overwhelming volume of false positive alerts and an alarming escalation in zero-day and novel threats that are often imperceptible by legacy systems.
The number of zero-day exploit discoveries hit record numbers in 2021, according to Google Project Zero. Instances of “in-the-wild 0-days” were up nearly double versus 2020, when only 25 0-day exploits were detected. In 2021, the total was 58.
Experts have warned that the Russia-Ukraine conflict poses an unprecedented cyber risk for U.S. organizations as well as State and local governments and municipalities.
Chief Scientist and CTO for MixMode, Igor Mezic, wrote this article for Forbes magazine on the advantages of moving away from a legacy rule-based cybersecurity platform to a third-wave AI platform that can better detect zero-day threats.
Log4j is the latest example of a zero-day exploit to be discovered and put a big part of the industry into chaos. Given its wide adoption by developers, the impact of the log4j exploit is quite broad and will take a tremendous amount of time to resolve.
ou may be surprised to learn that log data is proprietary to each security platform vendor. There is no standard format or even a standard labeling mechanism. Your data only has context within the parameters of your SIEM vendor.
How sure are you that log files represent the best source of information to base your entire Cybersecurity program upon? Log data is the cornerstone of every traditional cybersecurity platform including SIEM (Security Information and Event Management), UEBA (User and Entity Behavior Analytics), and xDR (Detection and Response).
While we’re seeing more data breaches than in years past, being proactive can make an enormous difference. Head-in-sand is not the optimal position for any modern organization with a network-based infrastructure. Education about the nature of modern data breaches is a great place to start.
Just like the SOC analyst, the TVA has to find these threats and remove them as quickly as possible. Let’s say you are tasked with being this TVA agent and are told you need to search all the timelines (an almost infinite number of them) and find all the Loki variants to have them removed.
Zero-day attacks are among the most challenging Cybersecurity threats SOC teams face on a regular basis. These “never before seen” threats can surprise organizations even if they are protected by traditional Cybersecurity systems.
Zero-Day attacks in Cybersecurity have become weapons of choice at the hands of bad actors over the past several years. But what does this term mean and how has this tactic evolved to become such a prevalent threat?
