Retina Now Offers Custom Audits for Android Devices
Leave a commentWhen a marketing buzz word sticks like BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), it is inevitable to see it everywhere in an effort to capitalize on the momentum; blogs, literature, SEO, social media, etc. In the past, we have seen great terms like “ecosystem”, “framework”, and my personal favorite “distributed computing”, rise and fall in marketing.

How are you prioritizing vulnerabilities? More [...]
In Configuration We [Still] Trust
4 CommentsIt has been roughly a year since we released our original paper titled “In Configuration We Trust.” The goal of that research was to try to draw awareness to the fact that a lot of security improvement can be made simply by how you architect your network and configure your operating systems and applications. These recommendations can not only help stop the run-of-the-mill drive-by attacks but also even some of the more sophisticated, dare we say APT, attacks. We’ve updated that research, which can be found here, and have also added a new tool into the mix. Why did we do all this? Let’s talk about that. More [...]
