Trending Technologies to Improve Organization’s cybersecurity
Since the digital world is advancing on a daily basis, cyberattacks are increasing and targeting every type of entity, resulting in a loss of billions of dollars. There are a few tips given that can be used to protect the infrastructure.
Zero Trust Tech
The typical process of implementing a network in terms of security is that once the device is allowed, it can access any application and zone of the network. In zero-trust, it does not trust any device; hence, it needs to have limited access and authenticate regularly. Organizations that are advanced in the cybersecurity era are implementing zero trust in their networks, this will maintain the confidentiality of sensitive data from unauthorized access.
Security Solutions for Endpoints
In every organization, there are various devices that are used to keep the business operational; many of those devices are endpoints used by many employees. Implementing an endpoint security solution could enhance in the visibility of every endpoint in the network. It will be useful in detecting and blocking threats in real time, as well as automating and orchestrating timely can be useful.The other functions they can take advantage of is to enable advance protection and dynamic access control. Incident management is a must-practice while protecting your organization from cyberthreats.
Authentication and Identity Management
Passwords are the main objective of adversaries, companies should be implementing extra security layers to secure their online identity, this can be achieved by consuming tools such identity management which gives the feature of 2-factor authentication. These tools can generate OTP (one0time Password) that used as an extra layer for verification. by this practice, cyber criminals will face a very hard time to exploit or hack into the individual’s account without knowing the other factors.
UBA – User behavioral analytics
User behavior analytics can be used to detect the normal user pattern of his normal day-to-day activity. This can detect anomalies if the user, for example, starts working during non-working hours or sends an email at night on a normal response required email. This could be a helpful alert for security analysts to detect an anomaly.
Security Information and event management (SIEM Solution)
SIEM is the essential product in the Security Operations Center that is used to detect anomalies received in the network. This technology will keep records of any malicious activity, incident, or suspicious behavior to be analyzed and triaged successfully to prevent any breach or exploit.
