CIS compliance is complicated. It’s a baseline set of benchmarks defined by the Center for Internet Security for protecting systems like network devices or firewalls. CIS Benchmarks align with essential industry regulations, including the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), NIST SP 800-53, ISO 27000 series, PCI DSS, HIPAA, and others. As a result, organizations prioritizing CIS […]
It has been five years since businesses quickly turned to a distributed workforce supported by hybrid network environments that include physical and virtual devices from multiple vendors spanning cloud and on-premises infrastructure. Those who embraced these shifts successfully navigated the uncertainty, but the repercussions for network teams have been significant. Accelerated digital transformation, work-from-anywhere models,
BackBox prepares organizations for CIS Benchmark compliance with prebuilt network automations.
We have become numb to the impacts of cybersecurity breaches. A new breach is reported in the news almost weekly, making it seem impossible to prevent it. However, a significant change is underway that you need to plan for. Insurance companies that help pick up the pieces are developing views on how businesses should protect
Network teams and the devices they manage are not the usual audience for discussions about ransomware. Ransomware affects endpoints and is often the purview of IT administrators and security teams. However, once data is encrypted and/or stolen, the costs of a ransomware attack snowball – as much as 1,000 times higher than if an incident
The EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) establishes requirements for digital product cybersecurity across the European Union. BackBox, using its ML-powered network vulnerability intelligence platform, can help meet these requirements using our ML-powered network vulnerability platform, and offers valuable tools to help meet the CRA’s standards and keep the network safe. BackBox helps with cyber resilience by

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is a crucial regulation for financial institutions operating within the European Union. Starting January 17, 2025, DORA mandates that banks, insurance companies, and information and communications technology (ICT) service providers, over 22,000 entities within the EU, adhere to specific rules designed to strengthen their ability to withstand and recover
When it comes to network security, we often think about vulnerabilities or exploits. About internal threats, and password compromises. We don’t often think about automation. Anything that can have a negative impact on network resiliency and its return to full operation after an ‘event’ relates to security. Automation helps keep your network humming along at
