Based on real-world experience and research, this whitepaper shares insights into five of the most dangerous and common IaaS configuration mistakes that could expose your public cloud computing environment to a worst-case security scenario. These are:
Early hacked administrative credentials
Exposed data...
The report tabulates the responses to the survey and draws conclusions as to how best practices are reflected in observed practices, as well as the influence of cloud computing, the Internet of Things, and other important industry trends. All participants in this research are either involved in the management of their...
Attacks through third parties are even more prevalent, which jeopardizes not only the security of sensitive data, but it also provides attack vectors for hackers to take down critical systems via IoT, unauthorized access, etc. Supply chain systems are an integral part of the oil and gas industry’s survival and bad...
Cybersecurity has long been a
challenge across industries. Now that
most organizations are firmly in the age
of digital transformation, protecting
against threats is increasingly complex
but also crucial to shield against
financial and reputational damage.
With hybrid infrastructures accommodating
modern and...
This report details seven case studies of attacks that were intercepted and neutralized by cyber defense AI, including insider threat, ransomware, and IoT attacks.
While all threat scenarios were distinct, some fast-moving and others slow and stealthy, in all cases the subtle indicators of suspicious activity were...
To protect today's dynamic workforce, security teams must be equipped to discern when and how a trusted account has been leveraged for nefarious purposes. This requires more than just an understanding of 'good' vs 'bad' - it requires an 'immune system' approach to security that is not only adaptive, but also grounded...
The convergence of IoT and OT provides a unique opportunity for
a stronger and more resilient infrastructure, whilst
increasing flexibility and responsiveness to new situations.
This needs to be well-managed to ensure the systems are
robust and the risks fully managed, and to maintain an
equivalent level of...
A critical component within millions of consumer and enterprise IoT devices has dangerous software flaws. New research from Forescout Technologies into open-source TCP-IP stacks shows millions of devices from 150 vendors are likely vulnerable.
This report enables a comprehensive, preventative approach to protecting all of the endpoints in your organization, whether office-based or remote. Enabling least privilege and allowing pragmatic application control are often overlooked but are crucial to achieving complete endpoint security.

It's hard to ignore the ubiquity of the internet of things (IoT). Even if you're one of those holdouts that doesn't own consumer IoT devices such as a smart speaker, internet-connected thermostat, or a smart watch, industrial IoT (IIoT) devices - a subset of the IoT landscape - are already playing a part in your daily...
Forescout updated its multifaceted IT/OT visibility and control platform to enhance the product's long-standing reputation for handling network admission controls.
In this review, SANS Analyst Don Murdoch digs into the product's capabilities and explores these key areas:
Device discovery and classification
IoT...
In this first edition of The Enterprise of Things Security Report, Forescout Research Labs analyzed data from over 8 million devices deployed across the Financial Services, Government, Healthcare, Manufacturing and Retail sectors to assess the current state of enterprise IoT cybersecurity. This information comes from...
It's common for security researchers to be ignored when reporting a software vulnerability. The latest example - vulnerabilities found by Independent Security Evaluators in a router made by China-based Tenda.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is opening up new opportunities for businesses and consumers, and is the linchpin of almost every digital transformation initiative. However, IoT also presents considerable security risks and challenges for organisations, specifically attackers impersonating a trusted device could conduct...
Federal government agencies face unique cybersecurity risks, and as a result they often place tight restrictions on mobile devices in the workplace. But perhaps it's time to loosen these restrictions because they are negatively impacting missions, recruitment and retention.
There are consequences of cutting back or...
