cisa kev vulnerability prioritization
cisa kev vulnerability prioritization Organizations should combine the NVD and CISA KEV catalog to prioritize vulnerabilities effectively, focusing on managing real risks rather than being overwhelmed by theoretical scores and alert fatigue.. To solve this, organizations typically lean on the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) and CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog. But these aren’t competing lists. They answer two entirely different questions. While the NVD provides baseline technical metrics aligned with the...

Desktop Securitysecurity advisory vulnerability
security advisory vulnerability GNOME is officially shortening its standard vulnerability disclosure window from 90 days to 30 days, a change that impacts upstream maintainers, downstream Linux distributions, and system administrators in how they handle software vulnerabilities. The policy shift, announced by long-time security coordinator Michael Catanzaro , addresses modern software patching realities and a growing influx of automated submissions. . Because GNOME is the default desktop environment on several major Linux...

Server Securitydata privacy automation
data privacy automation Every system admin has lived through the same Monday morning ritual. A queue of forty tickets, half of them password resets, permission errors, or disk space warnings that any experienced technician could resolve in under two minutes. The other half require actual judgment. For years, automation promised that software would eventually sort the two apart on its own. That promise is now being tested in production Linux environments. . Early results are reshaping how IT teams think about tier-1...

automationmonitoringbig dataExploring Big Data and AI Integration in Enterprise System Management
Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and big data seem to be the buzzwords of the decade. We’re not just talking robots or autonomous cars — AI and ML’s reach will surely be beyond that. What that really is has been yet to be determined, but the technology will surely stretch across all that SDxCentral covers including 5G, IoT, security, SDN, NFV, and monitoring. . Here are three stories from this week detailing how big data and automation are helping aid in the management and monitoring of enterprise systems and architectures and bringing these words beyond hype to actual services and platforms, particularly in the containerized and microservices world.

encryptionPGPprivacyPhil Zimmermann Discusses Privacy, Big Data, and Security Issues
Phil Zimmermann, creator of PGP, in a wide-ranging interview talks about the corrupting nature of big data, the end of privacy and the rise of the surveillance society. He also shared his thoughts on Moore. Phil Zimmermann might be a technologist, but he tends to get philosophical when it comes to the issues of privacy and security and how they intersect with our society. A cryptographer, in 1991, he created Pretty Good Privacy (PGP), an email encryption software and published it for free on the internet. Since then he has become an eloquent proponent for the need for privacy and tools. The link for this article located at GigaOM is no longer available. .

Evgeny Morozov makes a point about surveillance and big data: it just looks for useful correlations without worrying about causes, and leads people to implement "fixes" based simply on those correlations -- rather than understanding and correcting the underlying the causes..

data protectionkey managementdata encryptionEnsuring Data Security with Automation in Cloud Architectures
Cloud computing is the ideal environment for processing big data. For databases that scale horizontally, sometimes with a million or more fields and reaching multiple petabytes in size, it's possible to chunk up the data and spread it across hundreds or thousands of servers for parallel processing and analytics. It's an efficient and effective use of cloud technology.. Of course, if you put data in the cloud, you will want to protect it with encryption, especially if the data includes any sensitive customer or financial information. However, the very thought of generating and managing all the encryption keys for hundreds of separate data files can be a problem. And, if your data is in a public cloud, you wouldn't want to give access to the keys to the root user, who is often an administrator for the cloud provider.

access controldata managementsecurity modelNSA Accumulo Software: Advanced Label-Based Security for Data Storage
The National Security Agency has submitted its new, label-based data store software to the Apache Software Foundation, in hopes that others will further develop it for use in secure systems. . Called Accumulo, the software uses "expressive, fine-grained" labels that can tag each cell in a data store. Security policies can then be applied to the individual labels to, for example, allow an external server to access some cells but not others. Based on Google's Big Table design, Accumulo is a simple key/value data store, where providing the system with the key will return any data associated with that key. Featuring a distributed design, Accumulo can be run across multiple servers, making it a good candidate for managing big data systems, the NSA said.

Sixty-four-bit computing systems are poised to remake the enterprise network, offering dramatic increases in performance and scalability by virtue of faster computing speeds and increased memory. And it's none too soon, as the deployment of web-based, processor-intensive enterprise applications drives the need for improved performance across all parts of enterprise LAN and WAN boundaries. Though now in the minority of the installed base of systems, 64-bit servers with x86-64 capability are showing strong market growth, according to an IDC study. Some units, including AMD's Opteron processor, showed an 81 percent growth over the first quarter of 2004. John Humphreys, research manager of IDC's Global Enterprise Server Solutions unit, believes that the recent introduction of Intel's x86-64-based chips will result in robust 64-bit server sales for next year. Unisys recently reported that 52 percent of its business-intelligence customers who purchased high-end Windows servers last year chose Intel Itanium-2-based Unisys ES7000 servers. "Big data volumes, access to more data sources, and the need for real-time information are creating growing demand for the processing power of 64-bit based servers," said Michael Thomas, vice president of global solutions partners at the firm.
