@splunk is a game changing technology. We evangelize just how transformative it is daily, but seldom in this space. Join us in July as we look at two use cases in Fraud and in IT Ops with Splunk. #VisibilityDrivesAction
CVSS Scoring – A way of scoring the severity of a vulnerability. They help your security resources prioritize. But this isn’t the be all and end all. Each computing environment is unique and the businesses they support have different tolerances of risk. #VisibilityDrivesAction
Do you have VM Process or a Program? Processes typically identify the vulnerability but fall short on integrated workflows to ensure the problem is fixed. Programs provide a cradle to grave approach that address vulnerabilities in a closed loop. #VisibilityDrivesAction
How often do you scan for vulnerabilities? CIS Critical Security Controls for Effective Cyber Defense encourages continuous monitoring, but this in practice is seldom the case. #VisibilityDrivesAction
When a vulnerability is detected … Is it something that just went wrong one time, or is it a systemic flaw that creates a hole in a security boundary? Both can trigger alarms, so it’s important to contextualize the meaning in your environment. #VisibilityDrivesAction
Vulnerabilities. Okay, how do we find them? We look, using machines called scanners. These scanners look for weak points or poorly constructed components of and on your computer network. They can’t kill you, unlike other scanners. #VisibilityDrivesAction
What’s a Vulnerability? Simply it’s any type of weak point in a computer system or in a set of processes or procedures (really, it’s anything that leaves your data exposed to a threat). Sounds simple enough, but it requires a whole lot of context. #VisbilityDrivesAction
It’s Vulnerability Month at rSolutions! We’re talking vulnerability to bring awareness to this area of security. A month isn't enough time to cover it all, we have our ideas, but always open to yours. What do you want to hear about? #VisibilityDrivesAction
It’s Tuesday and we’re run off our feet with meetings, work and more already. At this rigorous pace we can lose sight of what it is we’re really trying to protect. What is critical to our business? Where is it? Is it protected? #ProtectTheCrownJewels#VisibilityDrivesAction
Take a look, it's in a book - its a reading rainbow.... We may live in tech, but a book is still endearing. The tactile connection we make with the pages, the ease on the eyes after a week of screen gazing. What are you reading this weekend? #VisibilityDrivesAction
Much of cybersecurity focuses on enterprise solutions, but so many people in THIS space are trying to keep their SMB viable in a time of cyberthreats. What do you do, so this sign isn’t on the door? Start at the beginning. https://t.co/yxhIWNeE6A

It’s important to follow our own policy when it comes to default passwords. Whether it’s a IoT device like a new Smart TV or fridge, or a more common business use printer or copier. We see it all the time in our work and the consequences can be serious. #VisibilityDrivesAction
