Jul 25, 2017 Threat Hunting? Ditch the SIEM - Part 2

To date, SIEM vendors have not provided the market with the functions needed for producing world-class threat hunting. Again, threat hunting is a method. In order to follow this method, we have to have tools that accelerate and amplify our human work, rather than using technologies that brush aside our method in favor of operating within their paradigm. Too many threat hunting programs are sputtering because we continue to believe that the method should conform to the technology, but that gets things backwards.

Thanks for a Great 2011

By Jody Brazil

The end of the year is always a crazy time at FireMon and likely most companies.  We are busy wrapping up end of year business while making plans for next year.  Even with all the activity, I can't help looking back at the year that was.  And what a year it was!

It seems like many years have passed since February when we changed our name from Secure Passage to FireMon.  Since then we acquired a powerful Risk Analysis technology, doubled the number of employees, opened offices in London, France, Germany and soon Australia and released Risk Analyzer.  And once again we have set a new company record for anual sales.  It has been a great year!

Thank you to all our customers and to all the great people at FireMon that make it happen.  It is great to work with such talented and quality people.  I look forward to seeing everyone next year!

Happy New Year!  2012 is going to be fantastic!

Aug 22, 2017 11:00 am - 12:00 pm CST Correlating Vulnerability Scans with Network Path Analysis to Find and Remediate the Biggest Risks to Your Network and Avoid Wasting Time on the Little Ones

Vulnerability scanning has its place but I’ve often found that it produces a mountain of data with little guidance for prioritizing updates other than a relative high/medium/low risk rating of the exploit itself and of the device’s value.

Jul 27, 2017 Bridge the Gap Between Your Risk & Network Teams to Reduce Risk
Recent cyberattacks such as Wannacry and Petya magnify the need to make risk and vulnerability management a top priority for organizations.  Combine that with a network security posture that is too open from years of access changes and little policy cleanup, organizations are more at risk now than at any time in history.

This national insurance provider had three problems to tackle regarding their firewall policies. First, the number of rules under management was overwhelming staff and processes. They needed to increase visibility and effectiveness of their firewall change request/workflow ticketing process. And they also need help maintaining compliance PCI DSS requirements.

Managed Service Provider
Each time this Global MSP engaged a new customer, they had to onboard the firewalls – sometimes hundreds per engagement – into their network. Part of the onboarding process required assessing the policies against internal best practices – a manual, line-by-line process that took an average of 16 hours/firewall and was extremely error-prone.
