What's the big deal about managed threat detection and response? Tom Callahan explains in Episode 4 of the Security with a Purpose #podcast: ow.ly/nE2450Bso8r #threatdetection #incidentresponse
Have to admit, if only the industry was as proactive as they have been with zoom as all the other vendors. Didn't see the same level of discussion when fortinet and pulse secure VPNs were found to be poor. Proven intrusions, hardly any mention. Weird that.

"Managed detection and response (MDR) services are arising as a cost-effective, turnkey solution for those businesses seeking 24x7 threat detection and incident response capabilities." Read the research report: ow.ly/t5al50wFFlz
This IT expert believes businesses that repeatedly ignore security patches are "the reason we have botnets"... What you need to know about the pitfalls of delayed patching. - ow.ly/2keo50wBNGU

We started ingesting traffic in the RSAC SOC roughly 26 hours ago. We’ve seen 33,581 clear text passwords in that time. A lot of that is SNMP, but there are thousands of HTTP, POP3, and IMAP account creds in there too. Oof!! #rsac #rsacsoc @rsa @rsaconference
