Threats are always evolving, you need to do better than just perimeter-level security. Cmd makes it easy to up-level protection inside mission-critical environments with better visibility, strong controls, and simple policies that keep data safe and stop breaches.
Production Linux environments are typically protected by VPNs, firewalls, WAFs, and all sorts of edge technologies. All too often, however, once you get inside the perimeter it’s the wild west. That’s why issues like lateral movement and privilege escalation can be so hard to spot – many companies just don’t have controls in place to enforce security policy after an attacker gets inside – or even the visibility to see it.
Attackers thrive on chaos, which is why security remains a critical function even in these chaotic times. Phishing attacks are focused on your cloud, leading to a need for better privileged access control. Meanwhile, algorithms trying to detect abnormal behavior using geolocation and time-of-day all need to be retooled, otherwise your SOC will be overwhelmed by alert fatigue. Cmd can help with all this.
Lack of visibility and control inside the cloud or datacenter perimeter is not a new challenge. Check out this whitepaper, published by SANS, describing some of the core best practices that organizations must take to up-level security in Production Linux environments. Want to learn more? Listen to the author of this whitepaper, SANS instructor and security specialist Matt Bromiley discuss these topics on his recorded webcast.
