Cybersecurity for businesses of all sizes: A blueprint for protection
Summary: Cisco Talos Incident Response published a paper outlining what businesses building a security program need for a robust foundation and logging architecture, aimed at organizations with limited resources. The paper covers endpoints, networks, cloud services and physical security, and notes that phishing remained the leading initial access technique while the percentage of ransomware and pre-ransomware cases increased, with finance and public administration tied as the top-targeted industries.
What you should know: Phishing is still the way attackers get in first, and ransomware's share of incidents is growing - so the human error and weak passwords the paper names are the entry point, not a side issue.
