Pentest emerged as a measure that helps organizations test their cybersecurity resilience and overcome their vulnerabilities, making them more protected and secure.
Pentest can be carried out in different viewpoints, each of which will have different goals. Among them, we can highlight the White Box, Gray Box, and Black Box.
Next, we show the differences between these three types of Pentest.

White Box, Gray Box and Black Box, what is the difference?

With a panel of international speakers, the Cyber Summit: Chemical had about 50 participants, from approximately 14 countries, whose profiles belong in the technology and cybersecurity areas, occupying leading positions.

SOC as a Service assumes continuous detection, containment, visibility, correction, and aggregation of intelligence. It can therefore be concluded that organizations with this service are much more efficient when it comes to identifying attacks and responding to incidents, having a preventative capacity in the face of new attack vectors.
Find the advantages of SOC as a service through this article.

Centralization reduces costs and time with possible errors due to lack of information, such as, for example, the repetition of work or the creation of security incidents (False Positives) generated by the activity of an employee of the Pentest department during his "normal activity", without there being any internal communication about what is going on because when testing the systems of a client, they end up generating various alarms for the technicians who are monitoring the network of that client.

The Importance of Centralized Communication - SOC

The skilled, well-funded, well-organized, and highly sophisticated cyber attackers use techniques that reveal security strategies to the technology alone. To develop a defense strategy against attackers, organizations need to know how hackers operate, how they function, and what techniques they use.
Cyber-threat intelligence allows companies to identify the dynamics and consequences of risks, improve security plans, structures, and reduce their attack potential to minimize damage and defend their network.

Talking about Cloud Security makes us think about some questions, namely: To what extent is data stored in the cloud more advantageous compared to traditional storage on local physical systems? What are the advantages of purchasing a cloud security service? These are some questions you will see answered throughout the article “10 things to know about cloud security”.

10 Things To Know About Cloud Security

There are multiple reasons why you should have your network pent tested. From a compliance perspective where you should have, at least, once a year a pen test being made, to a more frequently pen-testing like Pentest as a Service type for websites and applications. In either case, it is important you can have the findings logged into an incident response capability of your own or outsourced as a Service.  
The article “When to do Pentest?” will help you identify in which cases you must take a Pentest or a Pentest as a Service.

When to do Pentest?

We bring one article from Cyber Insights written by Hardsecure's International Sales Manager, David de Lima Oliveira.
He highlights one of the biggest challenges we face currently in Cybersecurity, being able to obtain valid, coherent, and contextualized information that will place us in a less reactive position compared to where we are at now when it comes to cyber-attacks.

Unsurprisingly, Ransomware remains the most common cyber threat and no company or network is safe from it. What started with some compromised floppy disks where victims were asked to pay $189, is now a billion-dollar cybercrime industry with the potential to cause damage worldwide.

Is Cyber Insurance making Ransomware attacks worse?

Hardsecure's first Virtual Round Table has arrived.
We gathered decision-makers and technicians at the table to talk about Ransomware, in a relaxed and informal conversation. For 45 minutes, watch different points of view and interact during the debate.

Round Table: Should you pay the Ransomware or not?

Welcome to CyberCast by Hardsecure International. Here you will find podcasts about cybersecurity that support organizations in being prepared to face cyberattack threats.
Podcasts are available in English and Spanish.
