There’s no doubt that open source software (OSS) is here to stay, but that doesn’t mean that developers can feel free to use all and any open source software components with no thought to the vulnerabilities and security issues they may introduce into development projects. The fact is, there’s no such thing as bulletproof, bug-free, automatically license compliant, and easily auditable software. Not in the open source world and not in the commercial off the shelf (COTS) world. So, it’s incumbent on developers, project team leaders, IT managers, CIOs and CTOs to ensure that there are sound strategies and tactics making it easy to acquire, distribute, use, monitor, analyze, and keep track of open source software to reduce the risk of vulnerable and buggy software and applications to an absolute minimum.

Defend Against Injection-based Attacks
The following is external content provided as a free resource for blog readers.

Security weaknesses today occur most often in software that is accessible from a user’s desktop, tablet, or mobile device. Web-based applications, network-enabled or controlled devices, and widely-used mobile software are the applications most targeted. This is followed by infrastructure applications such as operating systems, web servers, and browser-based software including plug-ins and extensions. The cause of these weaknesses typically stems from the developer not anticipating how the software could be misused and made to perform actions it wasn’t designed to do. The root problem is often a lack of secure input handling to block any application input or content that has not first been scanned for and had any harmful aspects filtered out. Request Free! |

Rethink Branch IT: Think Zero Branch IT
The following is external content provided as a free resource for blog readers.
 |
As the number of branch and remote locations increases, companies find themselves deploying more and more infrastructure, and spending increasing amounts of IT budget to deliver applications and data reliably and efficiently. Valuable company data stored in these locations is often left unprotected and frequently stored on servers jammed into closets, corners and hallways due to limited space. Without qualified IT staff on site to manage servers, storage and backup, provisioning new services, resolving application performance issues and recovering from outages can take days or even weeks, directly impacting business productivity and ultimately business results. Riverbed® offers a new approach – zero branch IT. Request Free! |

The Numbers Game: How Many Alerts is too Many to Handle?
The following is external content provided as a free resource for blog readers.
 |
In a recent analysis of threat management, FireEye learned that large enterprise companies rely on security personnel to fulfill multiple roles and responsibilities – an expectation that can prove disastrous when it comes to finding and escalating a critical alert. This special report is based on a worldwide survey conducted with large enterprises. The report contains statistics that clearly show security personnel at all levels face the unenviable task of wading through too much data, false alarms and duplicate alerts – which means the real risk isn't only that attackers will breach a network … it's that it won't be discovered and dealt with in time. While security teams comb through mounds of noisy data and cull out many alerts, too many still need to be addressed at the upper levels, making an already cumbersome process virtually impossible to manage.
