Security, compliance, and IT operations leaders need a powerful and effective way to accurately identify security misconfigurations and indicators of compromise. Explore the many ways Tripwire Enterprise can protect your organization with superior security and continuous compliance.

While integrity has been a common word in the cybersecurity lexicon for years, its meaning and use have been relatively limited. It may be time to reconsider its central role in security. The reality of always-connected networks, fluid data transfers across cloud and hybrid environments, and broadly deployed endpoints presents an opportunity to take a fresh look at integrity as an organizing...

The concept of Zero Trust Architecture is fairly straightforward. Networks and systems have been traditionally designed with the assumption that everybody inside a defined perimeter can be trusted and that everybody outside that perimeter is hostile. With that assumption, the idea of building an impenetrable wall around that perimeter makes perfect sense. Over time, and as technology has advanced,...

As chief information security officer (CISO), it’s now a job requirement to effectively communicate with your non-technical C-suite and board of directors—preferably not just after there’s been a breach. This is the first in a series of executive white papers designed to share strategies for reducing your attack surface risk as well as how to clearly and objectively communicate your overall security posture to non-technical executives. Download this white paper and learn about: The definition of “attack surface” — and risks associated Design goals of attack surface analytics What non-technical C-suite executives and board members want

The premise of a January 27, 2015, article by CNBC is that there is good evidence that a cyber attack against nearly any country’s critical infrastructure could be imminent. This kind of reporting has become so commonplace, but this doesn’t seem like just more FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) journalism. ...

The task of building and running an effective cybersecurity program is a major challenge for any complex organization, but those in charge of industrial control systems (ICS) have even more to figure out than their strictly-IT counterparts. How can industrial organizations overcome the cybersecurity skills gap? What about the increasingly-difficult endeavor of bringing the IT and OT sides of the...

Digital attacks are a growing concern for industrial control system (ICS) security professionals. In a 2019 survey conducted by Dimensional Research, 88 percent of respondents told Tripwire that they were concerned about the threat of a digital attack. An even greater percentage (93 percent) attributed their concerns to the possibility of an attack producing a shutdown or downtime. Other survey...
