One of the ways in which we can aim to mitigate attacks on the network and discover novel attacks is through honeypots. Which are systems with no inherent purpose other than capturing attacks, either on the Internet or within a network, and generally do not receive any legitimate traffic. Bot...
we’re going to publish a series of articles on how to defeat more advanced attacks, starting with token theft.In this article, we’ll start with some basics on how tokens work, describe a token theft attack, and then explain what you can do to prevent and mitigate toke...
AG:This is Alan. In some cases we’ve already seen device recalls. Particularly in automotive there have been security vulnerabilities that a number of automotive manufacturers have had to do large-scale recalls to address. One of the ways to mitigate this is by building remote secure firmware...

We wanted to identify countermeasures as the actions to take to help mitigate risks, reduce the attack surface, and address vulnerabilities.Just by chunking up the application security landscape into threats, attacks, vulnerabilities, and countermeasures, we empowered more people to think more deeply ...
Third, a really easy way to shoot yourself in the foot is to disable SMB message signing. SMB message signing does mitigate serious security issues by validating all packets in an SMB exchange. True, you may use Internet Protocol security (IPsec on top of SMB to achieve a similar effect, ...
