Organizations continue to shift workloads to the cloud at a rapid pace to achieve faster time to market, increased responsiveness, and cost reductions. With the majority of organizations expected to have more than half their workloads in the cloud within the next 12-18 months, it is no surprise that cloud security continues to remain a top concern.

This 2022 Cloud Security Report, based on a comprehensive global survey of cybersecurity professionals, reveals these security challenges and offers fresh insights on the state of the cloud and cl ...

Ransomware has become a popular weapon in the hands of malicious actors who try to harm governments, businesses, and individuals daily.

A cybersecurity mesh platform approach to security operations will improve operational efficiency, reduce cost, and maximize security hygiene. This complements EDR/XDR capabilities for automation of threat detection, boosts incident response, and reduces ransomware downtime with endpoint security. AI technology adds new virtual security professionals to the security team thanks to the correlation of informat ...

Though the scale and economics of the cloud are a boon for today’s enterprise, moving applications and data out of the data center into multi-cloud environments has greatly expanded threat surfaces, putting enterprises at greater risk of devastating ransomware attacks. This report will explore how to move beyond segmentation inside the data center and traditional next-gen firewalls at the perimeter and build a defense that meets the special demands of a multi-cloud environment. ...

90% of cloud runs on Linux. So, is it any wonder that malware is propagating in multi-cloud environments under the radar? Current countermeasures are focused on addressing Windows-based threats, leaving multi-cloud deployments vulnerable to attacks.

Based on research conducted by the VMware Threat Analysis Unit, this report uncovers the unique characteristics of remote access tools (RATs), ransomware, and cryptominers on Linux-based systems and how you can mitigate these threats. You will learn more about:

Existing characterization tech ...

Organizations can no longer rely on edge firewalls alone to provide network security. Once attackers get past an edge firewall, they can move laterally to high-value assets. This book illustrates how internal firewalls can help your organization secure east-west network traffic and prevent attackers’ lateral movements.

In the Internal Firewalls for Dummies Guide, you’ll learn:

The different types of network traffic and the firewall types that protect them
How distributed internal firewalls combine the best of hardware-based enterprise e ...
