Modern cybersecurity solutions: SIEM or MSSP?

by

What does SIEM mean?

SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) – the definition is that it is a software system that allows you to detect threats and respond to security incidents. It monitors data about security events in real time and provides a historical analysis from a wide range of sources that record events and contextual data.

More advanced SIEM systems and managed SIEM providers are able to combine events from different components of the IT system together to create a new higher-level event.

The main problem for security engineers is that there is too much data to be able to get even a rough overview. That’s why we need automation to distinguish those events that pose a threat or are otherwise interesting to our business from the multitude of events.

SeqSense shows how it built autonomous security robots on AWS

by

Japanese robotics startup SeqSense has built autonomous security robots using Amazon Web Services and Amazon’s platform for robotics

According to Japan’s national institute of population and social security research, the working population in Japan is expected to decrease by 30 percent in the next 30 years. A rapidly aging population in Japan causes a shortage of labor in the security space.

SeqSense, a robotics startup company in Japan, aims to solve this challenge by providing autonomous security robot service. They developed an intelligent security robot SQ-2. that patrols inside buildings.

It navigates by itself using pre-created map of a floor, patrol multiple floors by communicating with elevators. Their robot has been deployed in more than 30 office buildings, shopping malls, and airports in Japan. [Read more…] about SeqSense shows how it built autonomous security robots on AWS

Security robots ‘deter crime and minimize risk’, says Knightscope

by

The concept of automated policing began as a science fiction concept years ago, but today it is “real and impactful”, according to security robotics specialist Knightscope.

The sophistication of robot-powered security is even more interesting than sci-fi to Stacy Stephens, the co-founder and chief client officer of Knightscope.

Launched in 2013, the Mountain View, California, public safety technology services company was the first in the world to deploy mobile, fully autonomous security robots (ASRs) in public spaces such as malls, parking lots and neighborhood parks.

Hacking Robots: The 5 Threats You Need to Know About

by

Robots have already flipped manufacturing industries on their heads in the last couple of decades. With the potential to revolutionize everything from the military and law enforcement to education, it’s vital to take stock of the security risks that come with increased automation.

Manufacturing companies are the second biggest target for ransomware gangs. If robots are vulnerable to attack, money-hungry criminals will find a way to disrupt factories and demand payment to restore systems.

Where exactly do the risks to robots and automation systems come from? We’re going to explore who is likely to exploit issues in system confidentiality, integrity, availability, and authentication. [Read more…] about Hacking Robots: The 5 Threats You Need to Know About

How to Protect Your Business From Hacking

by

In this internet age, no business is unhackable. Hackers are growing at a fast pace, even as technology advances. Most of these hackers could hack into any system, and their activities can hardly be contained if measures haven’t been implemented to prevent their attacks.

You could leverage the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture and use cloud delivery solutions to prevent hackers from gaining access to your corporate system. Find out more on SASE here: https://nordlayer.com/learn/sase/what-is-sase/.

Hackers are constantly trying to exploit weak spots in websites, applications, and emails, and they build on them until they grow stronger. If we eliminate easy-to-hack spots from our websites and apps, then that will frustrate their efforts, and they will have to look elsewhere. This article will give you an edge in avoiding and preventing hackers by protecting your system. [Read more…] about How to Protect Your Business From Hacking
