According to the FBI, there is a ransomware attack on the United States Government and its enterprises every 11 seconds. After ransomware enters the system, it encrypts accessible files that are present on the computer and spreads throughout the network. These files have become unusable unless decrypted with a special key owned only by the cybercriminal and released in exchange for payment with an untraceable/pseudonymous method. Kapalya has d...

It’s essential to protect your private data at all times, especially when you don’t control all the hardware and software components with access to that information.

AWS offers many options for using encryption to protect your data in transit and at rest. A variety of features let you determine how much control you...

Classified Unclassified Information (CUI) is the path of least resistance for adversaries, and loss of aggregated CUI is one of the most significant risks to national security. Protecting your CUI is the most critical data protection topics for 2021. If your agency is only using encryption of data-at-rest (db) and encryption of data-in-transit (SSL); you are significantly exposed when your data is utilized and displayed within your apps. Your...

High-speed data networks are not inherently secure. Public and private network infrastructure are exposed to a multitude of cyber-threats, and with the rapid growth of IoT, Virtualization, Big Data Applications, Cloud, and Data Centric Services, the need for high data volume (100Gbps+ links) networks to securely deliver information when and where we need it has increased. Thales Trusted Cyber Technologies, offers a network security solution th...

Federal agencies require a simple way to correlate all security-relevant data so they can manage their security posture. Instead of merely watching events after they occur, agencies should anticipate their occurrence and implement measures to limit vulnerabilities in real time. For that, agencies need an analytics-driven SIEM platform such as Splunk. However, once data is correlated by SEIM tools, it becomes extremely valuable. By integrating...
