Some #cybersecurity professionals describe themselves as "hackers at heart" 🫀 However, as the cybersecurity field advances, many lack the true #hacker spirit because cybersecurity is seen more as a job rather than a passion. How can we ignite that excitement and recognize that technical skills alone aren't going to give us the upper hand against adversaries? 💡 In his latest article for Dark Reading, Mitiga Field CTO Roei Sherman explains why we need to cultivate the hacker mindset for strong cybersecurity defense: https://lnkd.in/gRBSJAPF

Not all cloud logs are the same 🙅♂️ Between major service providers like #AWS, to identity providers like #Okta, there is no uniformity to "cloud" logs. As a result, building #threatdetection rules can be difficult when it's unclear which cloud signals represent potential threats. What log type does your #SecOps team feel most comfortable with? ⬇️

DevOps Tech Lead Stav Ochakovski asked, "While granting an EKS pod IAM credentials is fairly straightforward, is it just as easy to trace an AWS event back to the pod that triggered it?" 🤔 To find out, she explored two methods: ☁️ IRSA — IAM Roles for Service Accounts ☁️ EKS Pod Identity Learn which one provided the most detailed information and why enriching AWS events supports your SaaS and cloud cybersecurity: https://lnkd.in/g7t76hJC #DevOps #AWS #IAM #Kubernetes

Investing in cloud-specific security training is critical to prepare your organization's SOC for cloud security incidents and breaches. What does this look like in practice? ✅ Obtaining certifications ✅ Managers encouraging time during work hours for analysts to learn about cloud and cloud security ✅ Diving into security up-skilling and training platforms Learn more about how to address the incident response and cybersecurity talent shortage in the full webinar on-demand: https://lnkd.in/g-g6vjh4 #SOC #DevOps #CybersecuritySkills #CyberResilience

Just published a new blog: "Hands-On Security Tips For Centralize Root Access In AWS(AssumeRoot)" AWS recently launched a feature that allows for centralized root access management across all AWS accounts within an organization. This update drastically simplifies managing root credentials, reduces operational overhead, and strengthens the security of your AWS environment. In the blog, I dive into why this feature is such a big deal, how it helps reduce the risk associated with root accounts, and the new ways CloudTrail logs reflect these changes. Plus, I've shared some hands-on tips for security teams on how to adjust monitoring and detection strategies to make the most of this new capability.

Businesses are shifting their assets into cloud, identity, and SaaS, and threat actors are evolving their tactics to exploit vulnerabilities in these environments. In this blog from Roei Sherman, he details 5 common tactics threat actors use to target your sprawling cloud estate and provides specific recommendations for how to combat them: https://lnkd.in/gtUS-cqm #SaaSSecurity #Phishing #Misconfigurations #SupplyChainSecurity

In cloud security, the phrase "shared responsibility" is commonly used to explain how certain cybersecurity responsibilities belong to the cloud provider (like an AWS or Okta), while others lie with the customer consuming cloud resources (your organization). However, the term "shared" can be interpreted that the cloud providers and customers are both accountable for cybersecurity responsibility as a whole 🤝 In actuality, we believe it should be called the "split responsibility model," which makes it clear that there are dedicated owners to specific cybersecurity responsibilities in the cloud.

Since developers now have a hand in cloud-heavy production environments, that means they should be equipped with knowledge on how to properly detect and respond to cloud incidents, too. That's where "developer security champions" can assist 🏆 Developer security champions are internal evangelists who advocate for secure practices.

💡 What is 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐃𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐞 (𝐌𝐃𝐑)? With organizations running on an average of three public clouds and hundreds of SaaS applications, alerts get noisy 🔊 Managed detection and response for cloud and SaaS environments enables SecOps teams to benefit from 365/24/7 monitoring of their complex cloud environments. The result? Internal teams are directed only to the potential threats that deserve attention while external experts initiate investigations of their own.
