Cybersecurity Awareness Month
By: Iain Kenney

Cybersecurity Awareness Month

I think it is safe to say that more people know about Cyber Security than ever before! Both within the traditional security industry as well as the person in the street. When the global mainstream media continues to highlight cyber security events, breaches or just discussions on the impact of these events it is clearly reaching a new level of awareness. However clearly wehave not “cracked it” yet since these issues keep occurring at an ever-increasing rate.

When I was reflecting on this topic I found a quote attributed to Ginni Rometty, previous CEO of IBM.

“Cybercrime is the greatest threat to every company in the world.” — Ginni Rometty

It is amazing that when the internet and computers started out it was about bringing people, countries and companies together. Now Cybercrime and Cyberwarfare aren’t just story lines in a book or a movie but the daily reality for many companies and countries.

Since the inception of cPacket we have been an integral part of accurately delivering packets to the security tools (and teams!) which are trying to protect large enterprise organizations. Making sure that we deliver all the packets all the time is critical to the successful operation of any security tool. This has been an area of great success and partnership with numerous security companies over the years.

By delivering all the packets to these tools they can build a complete picture of what is taking place at the network level for a company. Additionally using Packet Capture as another replication target allows teams to go back in time and see what other events were taking place around the same time. This allows for an even more comprehensive view of the whole network.

With cPacket’s ability to do this in traditional datacenters and virtual/cloud infrastructure a true hybrid environment poses few challenges!

Whether you already knew this was Cyber Security Awareness month or not I hope that you will take time to schedule a meeting with your team to review your approach and see whether you are taking all the steps that you can to protect your company from cyber-attacks.

Why not check out cpacket.com to see what we have to offer or reach out to me directly and would be happy to engage further.
