“Innovation in vulnerability management has been scarce over the past decade, and trackd is blowing up that narrative with a solution that we believe can have a material impact on remediation timeframes,” noted Geoff Gilton
There’s a new IT generation emerging in the manufacturing world. We had a few conversations with young IT professionals eagerly anticipating the imminent retirement of legacy IT leadership that lived in a world where IT
Whether we’re talking about sharing indicators of compromise (IoCs) in the cyber security community, Google Reviews of a new restaurant, exposing the bad behavior of potential dating partners, or identifying – before they’re applied –
Vulnerability prioritization is the practice of deciding which of the many unpatched vulnerabilities on the typical corporate network should be addressed first because they pose the most cyber risk to the organization. Vulnerability prioritization is
Collective defense in cybersecurity has been synonymous with threat intelligence sharing for a long time, but a new technology is bringing that concept to the world of patch management.
As we enter 2023, it’s a rare day that newsfeeds don’t include stories of companies implementing staff reductions or hiring freezes. Business is clearly preparing for a lean 2023, and it’s likely cybersecurity teams won’t
The internet has enabled us to live in a world where we can all leverage our collective experience to improve our individual decision-making. Just moved to town and need a new dentist? Check candidates out
How Do You Identify Vulnerabilities? There are many tools on the market, and even some that are free of charge, that will enable your security or IT team to identify vulnerabilities. Tenable, Qualys, and Rapid
So even with the knowledge that 98 out of 100 patches are safe to deploy, remediation teams are unlikely to modify their processes to patch more aggressively any more than the average person would change their decision to play Russian Roulette with a gun with 100 chambers and only 2 live bullets.
The primary new technology for server patching uses crowdsourced data on patches that have been applied to help guide remediation teams and highlight patches that have a history of disruption, and perhaps more valuably, those that have a history of safe deployment.
Tell us when patches are disruptive? Sure. But more importantly, let us know when they’re not, information that’s potentially much more actionable.
As an IT or cybersecurity pro, much like a closer in baseball, you’re only the star of the movie when you fail, and when you succeed, it’s expected, and let’s face it, unappreciated. Day-in and day-out, that ain’t easy.
Trackd’s software is like an Angie’s list or Google reviews for security software. It tracks past performance of security software updates by users, helping operators identify which patches might be disruptive when applied in their environment, and which are safe to designate for auto-patching.
Mike, our founder and CEO, took care of that differentiation thing on day one, pitch-deck slide one, prototype one. Nobody’s doing what we’re doing, and to quote an enthusiastic visitor to our booth at last week’s FutureCon show outside DC, “I can’t believe no one’s thought of this…”
“Innovation in vulnerability management has been scarce over the past decade, and trackd is blowing up that narrative with a solution that we believe can have a material impact on remediation timeframes,” noted Geoff Gilton SVP, Technology at Service Credit Union, an early adopter and design partner. “We’re excited to be part of the process to bring this technology to the infosec community.”
There’s a new IT generation emerging in the manufacturing world. We had a few conversations with young IT professionals eagerly anticipating the imminent retirement of legacy IT leadership that lived in a world where IT and security were necessary evils, chronically underfunded, and an afterthought.
Whether we’re talking about sharing indicators of compromise (IoCs) in the cyber security community, Google Reviews of a new restaurant, exposing the bad behavior of potential dating partners, or identifying – before they’re applied – security patches that are most likely to cause disruption, shared information is powerful.
