A cyber response framework should be a comprehensive and dynamic plan that looks at all aspects of incident response.

Security hardening is an effective way to enhance cybersecurity by reducing a business's attack surface exposure and protecting it against hostile forces.

This year, we will see a significant rise in data breaches that will directly impact everyday life as the scale of cyber threats grows, spilling into the mainstream.

Hybrid networks pose significant challenges, particularly when there isn’t a centralised security strategy in place.

Geopolitical uncertainty, rapid Internet of Things (IoT) adoption, and accelerated digitalisation will continue to fuel cyberattacks in the years to come.  

Organisations face growing pressure to strengthen their security posture with robust cybersecurity measures that protect against new and emerging threats.

Increasing risks created by sophisticated cybercriminals present a significant threat to the systems and services essential to society, including water, energy, transport, food and grocery, and health services.

In this digital era, automation plays a critical role in the race to support a dynamic and agile security posture. However, there is one area that is often overlooked: the human factor.

And as the network and potential attack surface continue to expand with the proliferation of connected devices and remote work environments, the need for a secure wide area network (WAN) approach has grown significantly.

IoT and IIoT come with inherent risks because they are often deployed faster than they can be secured, putting organisations in danger of cyber threats. Here are tips on how to mitigate those risks.

The increasing number of digital environments adds complexity to modern networks. As the network expands, so too does the potential attack surface that cybercriminals can exploit.

The increasing cost and growing prevalence of cyberattacks has many Australian and New Zealand businesses on edge.

Gaining a truly integrated solution is the only way to reduce technology sprawl and consolidate an organisation’s platform.

Many businesses are starting to plan for the potential that 5G networks will create by investigating game-changing technologies and applications beyond the Internet of Things (IoT) and video streaming. 

It’s important to choose a partner that can recommend fit-for-purpose solutions developed specifically for the organisation’s unique requirements.

It's likely that organisations will need to find a way to work alongside COVID-19, which will probably involve a hybrid approach to work. 

Zero trust streamlines that access while strengthening security protections. For this reason, it should form an essential pillar of any cybersecurity strategy.

Adaptability is the key to providing a strong security posture for organisations that are still weighing up their future scenarios to secure a workforce that is largely distributed versus one that’s mainly in the office. 

As the threat landscape continues to evolve and organisations stand to lose so much if they fall victim to an attack, it’s essential to ensure that security measures evolve in line with the network itself.

It’s essential to adopt a secure SD-WAN solution to avoid the risks that an unsecured SD-WAN solution can introduce, writes Wavelink managing director Ilan Rubin.

When employees aren’t used to working from home, their home networks generally aren’t secured to a corporate standard. This creates vulnerabilities that cybercriminals can leverage.

Research shows that nearly 60% of organisations that suffered a data breach in the two years between 2016 and 2018 fell victim to a known vulnerability with patches available.

One of the most serious disconnects between CISOs and other business leaders is their approach to the reasonable care standard for security and resiliency, Wavelink says.
