With cyber threats and vulnerabilities constantly changing Vulnerability Management Services are now essential in securing your organisation from cyber threats. In this blog we take a look at what vulnerability management is, the difference between vulnerability, risks, threats, and how vulnerability management services work to benefit your organisation.

Do an image search for hackers and you’ll be greeted with a multitude of images of men and women wearing balaclavas and masks (why would a hacker need to wear a mask?) sat at a computer plotting some nefarious scheme. Why is this the common representation of hackers? Could it be a result of watching too many movies or is it part of the narrative that you should be afraid of these people?In this blog we take a look at the different types of hackers and their motivations. 

Continuing our series on the most significant cyber-attacks this year, Integrity360's incident response team has turned its attention to the cyber security trends that we expect to surface in the latter half of the year.  

There’s a myriad of cybersecurity compliance frameworks designed to assist organisations in constructing secure IT environments, assuring data safeguarding and minimising cybersecurity risks. There’s so many that it can get a tad confusing at times. In this article we delve into several of the key frameworks, including CIS, ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27701, Cyber Essentials, SOC 2, GDPR, and NIST, whilst also highlighting the benefits of each. 

Cyber security is an indispensable aspect of any business operation. Recognising and understanding vulnerabilities - the potential risks that could compromise an organisation's cyber security - are critical. These latent risks become real and potentially damaging threats when exploited by a threat actor or accidentally by user error, leading to disastrous consequences like data breaches, malware infections, financial loss, and/or a loss of business-critical services. 

Businesses face a constant barrage of potential cyber-attacks, aiming to compromise data, applications, and other crucial assets. The backbone of an effective, modern-day cyber security strategy? The Security Operation Centre (SOC).

A Cyber Incident Response Team (CIRT) is a dedicated group of highly skilled and qualified IT professionals who are trained to respond to cyber security threats and incidents quickly. These teams are equipped with specific skills to identify, manage, and neutralise cyber threats effectively.

In part 2 of our series on the major cyberattacks of 2023 we'll be examining the attacks on Royal Mail and JD Sports. We'll also take a closer look at one of the largest DDoS attacks ever documented and delve into the havoc caused by the Black Basta ransomware spree.

We’re already at the midway point of 2023 and so far there plenty of cyber incidents have hit the headlines. In this blog we take a look at some of the biggest cyber attacks of 2023 (so far).

Cyber security is a critical issue for businesses of all sizes, but small-to-medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are particularly vulnerable to the threat with data showing that 43% of cyber-attacks target SMEs and that 60% of small businesses hit by a cyber-attack go out of business within six months.

In a world where cyber threats are becoming increasingly complex and devastating, the necessity for robust cyber security measures is indisputable. One method often utilised by cyber security professionals to analyse and strengthen defences is penetration testing, also known as 'pen testing'. One variant that is distinctive due to its unique approach and notable benefits is Double Blind Penetration Testing.

In today's interconnected, digital world, cyber security is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity. This holds especially true for the small to medium-sized businesses (SMEs), that are the backbone of the economy. While you are busy revolutionising industries, creating jobs, and fostering innovation, it is crucial not to overlook one aspect of your operations - cyber security. This might seem like a daunting task, but rest assured, it doesn’t have to be.
