Conventional antivirus application is practically ineffective when it comes to contemporary viruses. Signal based detection – in signature based detection your security software compares the files to a known malware database – your security misses between 80-90 percent of actual…
I mean, I will be frank- I was spending several years believing that my antivirus subscription was protecting my system. You are used to it: green checkmark, your device is safe, all okay. Afterward, I began to investigate how contemporary…
I have been following the trend of cybersecurity over the course of years, and most organizations have something severely wrong with their approach to vulnerabilities. They hope and wait the bad news an exploit code has surfaced, a CVE has…
Hopefully, I have spent many a late night watching vulnerability dashboards to understand how that makes me feel; 8,000 dictated critical alerts, 3 security analysts, and less than 40 hours/week with some degree of luck. I had my team experiment…
To be honest, I didn’t believe much in AI in cybersecurity before. After that I saw an MLP model detect a 0-day exploit that our conventional scanners had no idea was happening. That changed everything. I have been testing AI-based…
Look, I will tell the truth, as I heard about threat intelligence integration, I thought that it was one of those type of buzzwords security vendors use to market costly software. Thereupon I read about the actual practice of the…
Why, I have sat too many late nights at security dashboards seeing them light up like Christmas trees. I imagine you have had that experience when an alarm triggers at 2 AM, and you are trying to determine whether it…
Well, truthful enough, at first, when I heard about AI that handles security incidents by itself, I thought that it sounded like a sci-fi story. I say, computers making judgments to isolate your network or destroy credentials without any human…
Ok, I will tell the truth, when I first heard about zero-day vulnerabilities I thought that my attention would be somewhat as follows: how do you call on the defense against something you are not aware of at all? It…
See, I have been becoming a real student of the role of machine learning over the past few months, and how it affects the detection of threats that the previous security measures fail to detect. Initially I believed that anomaly…
Well, I wasted three weeks reading about AI threat detection systems since I continued to read headlines that involved AI-powered security and literally thought that most of this was marketing nonsense. It happens that I was half correct–there is hype,…
Introduction I quickly recall when I first had to view a SOC analyst who manually had to triage hundreds of security alerts. It was late, 2 AM, and they were taking their third energy beverage, and one-third or so of…
