The Problem with Zero Trust With more and more enterprises moving to mobile and cloud technologies, it’s becoming extremely difficult to enforce perimeter security. That’s why so many organizations are adopting Zero-Trust Architecture (ZTA). It enables them to grant access based on device/user credentials instead of a user’s presence in the corporate network. But as […]

It also enables attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle network attacks. In the recommended configuration of Hysolate, Hysolate customers are not impacted by this vulnerability due to Hysolate’s secure-by-design […]

The increasingly sophisticated and persistent nature of cyber threats underscores the importance of protecting your privileged accounts, along with their respective privileged users and privileged credentials. Privileged accounts, by their very nature, tend to be the sort of digital “crown jewels” that are much sought-after by hackers. Best practices for Privileged Access Management (PAM), the […]

It has risen in popularity since Forrester coined the term in 2010.  Initially, Zero trust referred an enterprise security architecture that relied on a trusted internal network protected by firewalls that enforce perimeter security. However, with enterprises adopting mobile […]

Network segmentation is a common and effective cybersecurity countermeasure. As attacks get more sophisticated, however, security tactics need to advance in parallel. For example, endpoints (laptops, desktops and workstations) are often considered among the “weakest links” in a cybersecurity strategy. They are thus the prime targets for network penetration attacks. That said, it’s apparent that […]
