Security Vulnerabilities 
cisa kev vulnerability prioritization
cisa kev vulnerability prioritization Most Linux teams don't struggle to find vulnerabilities anymore. They struggle to decide which ones deserve attention first. Between daily scanner results, vendor advisories, and hundreds of new CVEs each month, the challenge isn't visibility—it's prioritization. . 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...

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...

cyber threatsdata breachsecurity challengesExamining the Expansion of Cloud Security and Upcoming Obstacles Ahead
Two reports on cloud security were recently released: The 2019 Cloud Security Report and the Global Cloud Security Software Market report. The latter is a five-year forecast that covers 2019 through 2024. These reports showed where growth lies within the cloud security market and what challenges are presented to businesses who use or are looking to use cloud services. . Many businesses are actively transitioning to cloud services, and as a result, it's anticipated the cloud security market will grow at a CAGR of 4.98% over the next five years. In 2018, the market was valued at USD $28.1 billion, and it is anticipated to reach a market value of USD 35.6 billion by 2024. Technology is rapidly changing and becoming more complex, leaving room for the addition of innovative technologies such as cloud services for operations and data management. In addition, there is an increasing number of expensive cloud-related cyberattacks. According to the 2018 Cost of a Data Breach Study by Ponemon Institute, the average cost of a data breach in 2018 was USD 3.86 million. The ease of cloud services use combined with the high cost and increasing rate of cloud-related attacks is driving the cloud security market to rapid growth.

SSL certificatesmarket trendspricingLow Assurance SSL Certificates Pricing Trends And Market Analysis
While we start to see a shift in the market of SSL certificates ,with the costs getting lower and lower - specially for low assurance certificates, there are some providers, which try to tell you otherwise. . The so called low assurance certificates, are domain validated only certificates, such as our Free Class 1 Certificates. For years they were sold for up to ~ US$ 100, depending on the CA. Now it seams, prices are getting down - not free yet, but certainly much lower than in the past. Prices on validated certificates however don't seam to have changed a lot so.... In November 2005 representatives from the most popular browser vendors (Internet Explorer, Mozilla (Firefox), Opera and KDE) met in Toronto to discuss certain UI changes of their software, to reflect different types of certificates. So they all have some differences about the colors, they agreed, that the address bar should be flushed with different colors, depending on the state of the certificate (trusted CA or not, wrong domain etc), but also the "golden pad lock" will be moved to the address bar. Other ideas which came up in their meeting was, to try to implement some standard, which would reflect the verification level of the certificate. Of course, this is somewhat problematic, since every CA does measure this levels different. The link for this article located at StartCom Linux is no longer available. .

Fuelled by increasing fears of virus and hack attacks, global network security appliance and software sales continue to climb steadily, rising four per cent to $1bn between the first and second quarters of this year, according to newly published figures. . The latest Network Security Appliances and Software study from Infonetics Research also predicted that security appliance and software sales will grow by 23 per cent to $1.3bn by the second quarter of 2006. Annual sales revenue is projected to grow to $6.4bn by 2008. "Some vendors are starting to build integrated content security appliances (virus scanning, spam filtering, spyware/malware security, etc.) and are intentionally leaving out VPN and firewall functionality, so these products can act as a supplement to existing embedded VPN/firewall products," said Jeff Wilson, principal analyst at Infonetics Research. According to the report Cisco leads the network security appliance and software market with 34 per cent of worldwide sales, while Check Point is second with 10 per cent and Juniper Networks third with eight per cent.

open sourcesecurity certificationLinuxThe Importance of Security Certifications in Open Source Growth
Only a few open-source vendors have borne the time and expense of having their software EAL-certified. Red Hat and Novell's SuSE Linux attained EAL3+ ratings in the last year, but many other vendors have yet to do the same. This raises a fundamental question: Does open-source software need security certifications to win global acceptance? . Open source is undeniably on the march. Linux continues to grow at a torrid pace -- now forecast by IDC to represent a US$35 billion market by 2008 -- though it has yet to significantly breach the desktop market. Mozilla's Firefox browser debuted with much fanfare recently, with over ten million downloads recorded in a single month. So far, open source has captured plenty of converts and customers, not to mention media attention and the ire of Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT) . Is there nothing to slow its mighty advance?

market trendspiracydesktop linuxGrowing Trends in Desktop Linux Piracy and Their Sales Impact
PCs running Linux are growing in popularity in part because they can be loaded with a pirated copy of Windows, according to a study from analyst Gartner. . . .. PCs running Linux are growing in popularity in part because they can be loaded with a pirated copy of Windows, according to a study from analyst Gartner. The consulting firm issued a report on Wednesday stating that about 40 percent of Linux PCs will be modified to run an illegal copy of Windows, a bait-and-switch maneuver that lowers the cost of obtaining a Windows PC. In emerging markets, where desktop Linux enjoys wider popularity, the trend is even starker. Around 80 percent of the time, Linux will be removed for a pirated copy of Windows. Pirated copies sell for around $1 in the streets of Shanghai and other cities in Asia and Eastern Europe, but can also be bought in stores selling brand name PCs. As a result, the number of desktop Linux PCs that ship will exceed the actual percentage of Linux machines that get installed in the real world. Desktop Linux will account for about 5 percent of desktops shipped in 2004, according to Gartner, with 10.5 percent of the desktops in Asia shipping with Linux this year. However, the installed base of Linux will come to only 1.3 percent. . The rise of Linux desktops is fueled in part by users finding it simple to set up unauthorized copies of Windows..
