Invisible Threats: Why Hands-On-Keyboard Attacks Are Formidable

Fileless, hands-on-keyboard attacks are a particularly formidable malware-free assault because they do not depend on signatures traditionally used for detection, thereby creating a blindspot for malicious actors to exploit, according to the 2022 CrowdStrike Global Threat Report.

 

Why Invest in Cybersecurity?

“The probability of suffering a cyberattack is imminent; there is no infallible strategy, but there are ways to anticipate the attackers, study and be able to read their movements,” writes Angel Israel Gutierrez, CTO, A3Sec. 

 

The Implications and Benefits of Real-Time Data Use

“Having the right information helps to minimize failures. In this regard, data analytics is an excellent technological ally that data managers can use to respond to the acceleration brought about by digital changes,” writes Sergio Hernandez, President and CEO, CIAL Dun & Bradstreet.
