Security models have struggled to match the evolution of Unix. Over its long history, Unix has evolved and changed in many different ways. What started in Bell Labs 40 years ago has spawned more than 150 variants of Unix in use today. Unlike the linear progression of Windows operating systems, in which most organizations use…
Endpoints, the devices people use to access company resources, are a weak spot in corporate security. Compromised endpoints are a primary access point that cyber criminals use to infiltrate a network. Two-thirds of companies are compromised by exploits that originate with an endpoint. The volume of endpoint attacks is rising, as is the sophistication of…
Earlier this week, we publicly announced the acquisition of Onion ID—a San Francisco-based identity and privileged access management (PAM) company.

Even organizations with well-documented PAM policies don’t simply trust that people are doing the right things Privileged session management increases oversight and accountability so you…
Given the unusual recent circumstances, many employees around the world are finding themselves in a situation where they must work from home or remotely. I’ve been working remotely for about 15 years, so I thought it would be great to share some of my experiences, cyber security best practices and tips, and lessons learned on…
What is NIS? The Networks & Information Systems (NIS) Directive was created by the European Union (EU) with the specific aim of raising levels of overall cyber security and network resilience for critical infrastructure. NIS improves overall EU cyber security by driving organizations to adopt enhanced security for critical infrastructure. The NIS Directive & Critical…
