“In-house SOC or MDR?” is a question most frequently asked too early and framed incorrectly. Before answering which model is superior, more fundamental issues must be evaluated: what actual operational capacity can the organization sustain over time, month after month – even when a key employee takes leave or departs the company? This article does…
The detecion triggers at 3:11 AM. It looks severe – a process establishes an outbound connection to an external IP, and the activity profile matches a potential lateral movement attempt. The response mechanism is ready: network host isolation (technically, a single click). The catch is that this specific endpoint hosts an active production process, and…
PowerShell executes dozens of times a day in your environment. PsExec is a standard tool in many administrator’s arsenals. RDP is the backbone of remote server administration. Yet these same three tools top the list of the most frequently leveraged vectors in cyberattacks. They are effective precisely because they are ubiquitous, nad by default, no…
The console has been showing over twenty new detections since this morning. Most of them are the same patterns you saw a week ago and a month ago – administrative processes, logon scripts, and activity that almost always turns out to be harmless. Somewhere among them, a signal that genuinely requires attention might be hiding….
On Wednesday at 11:47 PM, PowerShell launches on one of the accounting workstations (a tool this specific user has never used before). The process establishes a connection to an external IP address. ESET Inspect logs this event and generates a detection aligned with the MITRE ATT&CK matrix tactics. What happens next? The answer to this…
John left the company three months ago. He received his termination notice on Friday, HR issued his employment certificate on Monday, and by Wednesday he was already working for the competition. His Active Directory account still exists. His email inbox is receiving messages. VPN access – active, and the SharePoint folder with client offers is…
Our sensitive data is not just our first name, last name, or address, but also information about our health, political preferences, and even our facial biometrics. Data leaks online are everyday reality, and the fight for security is no longer about being invisible and avoiding social media. You have to react! Discover four rules that…
Most of us treat a home router like a household appliance. We plug in the cables, make sure the right lights are on, enter the password on our phone, and forget about it, letting the “internet box” gather dust. It is natural, because technology is simply supposed to work. However, from a cybersecurity perspective, it…
We install a new app. Excited about a new feature or simply wanting to get things done quickly, a pop-up appears asking for access. What do we do? In most cases, our thumb instinctively moves toward the “Allow” button. We often treat these prompts as redundant bureaucracy – a hurdle on the way to our…
In the physical world, none of us would dream of using a single key to open our house, car, office, and bank vault. So why do we do it so frequently in the digital world? We use the same simple passwords because our memory has its limits, and the number of accounts we own is…
