Security Information and Event Management (SIEM)

• Don’t have a Central Intelligence Agency? No problem – get a SIEM. Amassing this level of awareness to the happenings of your company is critical to security operations. Breaches, even AI-assisted ones, follow predictable patterns. But this is so much more than anomaly detection – any 3rd party SOC vendor can spot deviations from a pattern. No, this is understanding. Through the lens of a SIEM, you can learn nearly anything about a company (Domain Name System logs anyone?). In short, SIEMs are the primary way to prove identity. Understanding is how you can prove identity. Who’s in your network, what are they doing, and what’s the likely motive?

Firewalls

• Perimeter. Host. Infrastructure. We’re going to enable them everywhere. And they’re going to tell us much of what’s happening in your company. They’ll be matured and tuned to allow only what’s needed. We call it “quieting the network.” The less noise, the easier it is to hear what’s really going on. Remember when that sales person boasted about full-packet inspection when you bought your firewall? Yeah, we’re gonna turn that on. Also, ready for one of those paradigm shifts? Let’s talk outbound blocking.

Lockdowns

• Want to protect against whatever tomorrow brings? We’ve created a lockdown cocktail of military network settings, NIST, the best of industry frameworks, and many things we’ve learned over years of real-world experience.

Admin Awareness

• Perhaps the easiest way to catch a thief is by properly separating admin vs. non-admin behavior. This is the method to catch tomorrow’s apex AI predator. No matter the cleverness of the entry, to successfully rob a jewelry store, the jewelry must be stolen. A hyper-vigilance to all happenings involving the jewelry will reveal the thief. Through the separation of duties, dedicated and fully documented admin devices, and static network locations, all admin actions will be known and accounted for. Any deviation from this, reveals your thief.

Network Isolation

• You can see a lot when all your servers are on one network, workstations on another, infrastructure on a third. And full-inspection firewalls sitting between them all. Network enclaves are a safe place to store your legacy unmentionables. Paradigm shift: Dark Networks… wait, you’re not supposed to know about those.

Safe Spaces

• Isn’t vibe coding awesome? But, the inherent “Pandora’s boxiness” of it all takes the security assurance out of it. Well, what if you could defang the risk of AI-generated code? What if you controlled your environment (or had a specific environment) so you didn’t have to worry about what that no-human-has-actually-reviewed-or-understood vibe code is doing? If that were true, you could probably just ask some teenager to build your company’s next CRM while they’re waiting for Fortnite to load (oh wait, that’s me). The end product would be intuitive, local, specifically tailored to your business instead of those big name generic ones your staff has to endure. Bye SaaS! I mean, isn’t this kind of stuff what the AI-revolution is all about?

Vulnerability Scanning

• There’s no substitute for the hard work of scanning and fixing security issues in your environment. We use the industry-standard vulnerability scanning to perform checks. These monthly reports document missing vendor patches, misconfiguration, industry-best practice gaps, and provide the technical fixes and articles to work them off.
