What is DevSecOps?
DevSecOps-Explained-Technology

DevSecOps = Development + Security + Operations

A method of identifying security vulnerabilities in the development phase is DevSecOps.
These days data protection has become essential for every company and organization to protect their users’ data and ensure there is no vulnerabilities and breach. People and organizations are aware of their data safety needs and they’re often more concerned about where and how their data is being transferred and stored.

What problems does DevSecOps solve?

  • Stops cloud adoption and continuous dev cycles from circumventing traditional security process and checks
  • It suits data protection laws like GDPR and CCPA and many more
  • It helps you develop software that meets the data security standards
  • It is a security-driven software solutions approach. It promotes security as a collective responsibility for everyone in the organization
  • It streamlines data storage, processing, and collection that can guarantee proper compliance
  • A logical, strategic and potential approach to software development with security as a key component

In the present era, data security has become a major concern or pain area for any business or organization. Through the introduction of “security as a language” methodology, every enterprise may use a strong mix of security and agility to encourage teamwork and openness in the production of applications.

What does DevSecOps do?

DevSecOps is the perfect platform for applying security from the beginning. DevSecOps will not position security at the end of the life cycle, but at each point, to make sure the production phase runs safely and smoothly. DevSecOps enforce security as a shared responsibility that can measure applications security from the starting phase of software development.

What is DevSecOps Methodology

DevSecOps is based on the principle that security is a shared responsibility within DevOps. The aim of DevSecOps is to integrate security in every aspect of the development/deployment lifecycle. DevOps has become integral to the development of agile organizations who are looking for rapid sustainable growth, CI/CD means that there are continuous updates that run which means that security has to be a key factor. Integrated security means that there are minimal disruptions during the introduction of innovative features. Integrating DevSecOps means a paradigm shift of new processes and tools.

Conclusion

In reality, it’s clear that applying security in every app development phase has been the most challenging function. Throughout the previous process of production, security was carried out for firms and restricted to those team leaders only. This is because past tech programs were shipped in months or years but are now completed within a matter of weeks.

Breakthrough In Cyber Meteorology Resilience Strategy

Cyber Meteorology

The CISO’s job nowadays is required to analyse organizational responsibilities, project timetables and the management of everything that their company considers to be a “digital” danger. The increase of accountability ensures that CISOs in a sea of vendors become overwhelmed as they comment on the threats of their business. Cyber Meteorology, The only trend is the increasing threat climate and the extension of obligations as new threats expand and evolve in.

Cyber insurance companies encounter the same dilemma on a scale, because every client when assessing has a particular danger with different challenges and liabilities. When  approached initially for development cyber insurance companies noticed that, first they had to provide a macro-level background around the micro-technical concept of each product.

Manage Risk through Intelligence

Cyber threats are widespread, recurrent and continually changing. Thanks to their nature and dynamism, these risks are not well known and have not been successfully mitigated by the corporate sector. Companies spend more each year on cyber security, and remain deeply vulnerable to the current variations of cyber-attacks.

Security protection is a logical alternative to moving at least some of these through security exposures. Timing is right. We are in the early stages of the cyber-industrial revolution. Autonomous mobility and the rapid expansion of the Internet of Things networks are on the near horizon, with quantum engineering just beyond. Equilibrating productivity vs. defence is built to become more nuanced and mission-critical than ever before. We’ve never come this way before. 200 years ago, a similar set of circumstances emerged as the industrial revolution accelerated.

But cyber criminals continue to operate with near impunity, and it can be anticipated that they will continue to do so if nothing else improves. Digitalization is accelerating. Companies continue to shift further aspects of their activities to cloud-based services and increase their reliance on third-party providers and suppliers.

The broader dissemination of more pieces of business activities transforms into a variety of new attack vectors. And of course, opportunistic cyber criminals have not forgotten anything. The Verizon report, for example, reveals that fraud hackers utilize compromised passwords to hack on cloud based email servers in proportional amounts.

Cyber Risk Mitigation

This has been widely discussed for several years in insurance and cyber security circles. Most data sets and analytical tools used to do this are readily available. And some early attempts have been made to encourage companies to adopt more successful cyber-hygiene and also to put cyber-insurance sales to a firmer footing, but without much momentum.

Cyber meteorology facilitates better decisions by simpler, more data-driven perception of the risk profile of each client. When the actual risks are transparent to both sides, both stakeholders will agree better reporting.

Cyber Meteorology is Data Driven.  First data-driven cyber insurance company realised to provide macro level context around the micro technical view of each company.

Cyber Meteorology  – In a Nutshell

  • Cyber Meteorology leverages automation to mature the understanding of new changes in threat trends.
  • Cyber Meteorology employs analytics to make insured customer base safer, so insurance losses are less frequent and cheaper for both parties.
  • Cyber meteorology serves as the basis to insure companies against cyber risks and help them prioritize their security efforts.
  • Cyber meteorology combines a company’s internal and external security controls with global and industry level threat trends, to gain a full understanding of risks that matter most to a company’s bottom line such as:
  • Threat environment data that includes indicators of high-level global, industry, and organization-specific threats.
  • Exposure data that looks at the attack surface both inside and outside an organization.
  • Controls data which considers external facing technical assets, as well as internal access policies.

4 Reasons Why Disaster Recovery Plan Should Be a Priority

Bobby Varghese

Quick question? – How long can your business survive without any critical data, applications and operations?

Anything more than 48 hours could indicate that you do not need a viable disaster recovery plan. Let’s face it, at some point your data will be at risk. It could be a machine error, a human error, a virus or even a natural disaster like an earthquake. Turning your back on proper precautions could mean losing it all.

Think of your disaster recovery plan as an insurance policy for your data and business if something out of your control happens.

 

Disasier recovery plan

This is why we’ve compiled our top 4 reasons why your backup and disaster recovery plan should be a priority.

Machines & Hardware Fail

While we have reached a stage in technology where Intelligent bots are shaking up lawyer’s jobs, it’s still not perfect and is bound to have issues here and there. Identifying and eliminating the single point of failure in your IT infrastructure could be an expensive affair, although it is really the only way to ensure that a hardware failure will not interrupt your service or cause data loss. The best option is to backup your data regularly, ideally with a leading and highly secure managed hosting provider.  This will help to eliminate any interruptions in case of IT infrastructure failures.

 

Humans Make Mistakes

This is the most seen mistake, and the hardest to prevent and correct, regularly backed up data lets you restore it to an error-free state. As much as we wish we were, people are not perfect and can easily overlook an important step in a process and accidentally delete data or enter the wrong data. Making sure you have efficient processes in place and good quality assurance programs are your best bet, but having an online backup solution can be as equally important.

 

Nature is Unpredictable

We have all read and seen what can happen when the wrath of mother nature hits, which can be unpredictable at times. Businesses that don’t have a backup and disaster recovery plan in place can find it almost impossible to resume operations after a major disaster hits. In fact, an estimated 80% of all companies that experience a business interruption of greater than five days, without recovery plans, go out of business.

 

Customers Want Access 24/7/365

Times have changed, now customer holds the key to a business, an average customer expects the information they want to access to be available at his will. This means if your organization is facing infrastructure issues and cannot pull out the data in a timely fashion, these anxious customers could jump ship to a competitor.

 

We conclude by saying that without having a proper contingency plan, companies run the risk of incurring high monetary and non-monetary losses like outages, downtime, loss of data, low employee morale, loss of reputation, and lower revenues. Thus, a robust disaster recovery strategy is important to run a successful and a secure business.
