Business Feel Let Down By UK Government on Cybersecurity

UK Businesses Are Asking the Government to Provide More Support Around Cybersecurity Issues in 2019

LONDON, UK – Monday 10th December, 2018 – Has a sensitive political and business environment in 2018 deflected attention away from security and left UK businesses less prepared for cyberattack? New research* has revealed that UK businesses are looking for greater support from the Government in the ever-growing battle against cybercrime.

According to the latest insights from RedSeal, nearly seven in ten (68%) IT bosses say their business has suffered at least one cyberattack in the past year. Almost a third (31%) also said the government does not offer businesses enough guidance or support on cybersecurity. The data also revealed that one in five (19%) of the UK businesses surveyed had no plan in place to deal with a cyberattack and that 65% of IT teams believe that their senior management needs to pay more attention to cybersecurity in 2019.

This latest research comes just two months after the National Cyber Security Centre’s second annual review where the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, David Lidington, gave a speech at the National Cyber Security Centre on why cyber security matters. He highlighted that the Government’s latest annual Cyber Security Breaches Survey had also revealed that more needed to be done. It flagged that only 30% of UK businesses have a board member with responsibility for cybersecurity and a small 10% require their suppliers to adhere to any cyber standards. Lidington also said that the Government’s next announcement on their cybersecurity strategy for UK business is planned for some time this month.

Ray Rothrock, CEO of RedSeal and author of the book Digital Resilience commented, “We commissioned this research to explore how prepared businesses are to continue operating during an attack. The number of high profile breaches has meant that 2018 has become the year where businesses are left wondering what more they can do to protect themselves, how to remain resilient, to keep operating and minimise customer damage. Our research highlights the fact that that senior IT bosses want the UK government direct more attention, money and resource to supporting their businesses in the face of cyberattacks.”

RedSeal’s research today, along with high-profile breaches such as the Marriott and British Airways in recent weeks and months, has only highlighted the ever-growing need for more to be done in the fight against cybercrime. Two-thirds (67%) of those that had been attacked in the last year stated that this had resulted in a financial loss, 37% in a loss of customers and nearly half (43%) suffered damage to their reputation.

RedSeal Bolsters Digital Resilience Platform to Deliver Most Comprehensive Model of Enterprise Data Centers

Exclusive new features give enterprises ability to strengthen security posture with greater visibility into and across their cyber terrain

SUNNYVALE, Calif. – November 13, 2018 – RedSeal today announced the latest upgrade to its award-winning network modeling and risk scoring platform, trusted by more than 50 U.S. government agencies and hundreds of Global 2000 companies worldwide. To create the most complete network model possible, RedSeal’s platform now validates policies at the application and networking levels, as well as provides endpoint modeling. These exclusive new capabilities bolster users’ understanding of their complete enterprise data centers, including public cloud, private cloud and physical network environments, which in turn extends an enterprise’s foundation for being resilient to cyber events.

Unprecedented Network Context with Application-Based Policies: Layer 7 Application ID

Large enterprises with Next Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) can now use RedSeal to visualize access and validate policies at the application level (Layer 7), as well as at the networking level (Layers 2, 3 and 4). No other security, network modeling or cyber risk scoring product provides this level of visibility, understanding and validation for an organization’s security posture.

With this kind of visibility within and between their network environments, users can understand and prioritize incidents and vulnerabilities wherever they are. This is a significant new capability because traditional firewall policies are based on the networking level—defined by source, destination, port, and protocol. NGFWs, however, are becoming more prevalent in networks and users can create policies, to be implemented by the firewalls, based on the identities of specific applications or Application IDs. For example, RedSeal can validate a “Deny Skype” policy that has been applied to specific addresses, or across all ports and protocols, further strengthening the user’s security posture.

Expand Picture of Cyber Terrain with Endpoint Information from All Sources

With its capabilities expanding to include endpoint modeling, RedSeal is the only resource that models and consolidates endpoint information from any source. This feature gives RedSeal users the ability to import and store information about their endpoints from multiple sources, including vulnerability scanners, Endpoint Protection and Endpoint Detection Response (EDR) solutions, as well as other applications such as Active Directory.

“A comprehensive understanding of network assets and paths is the foundation of a digital resilience strategy,” said Kurt Van Etten, chief product officer at RedSeal. “With its latest enhancements, RedSeal’s platform is the only product on the market that models Layer 2, 3, 4, and 7 policies and consolidates endpoint information from any source. As a result, RedSeal builds the most complete model available, including public and private clouds, physical assets and endpoint sources. The important new features introduced in our latest product ensure users can confidently validate their security posture, accelerate investigation and improve productivity of network and security teams.

RedSeal Launches Remote Administrator Managed Service to Augment Customers’ Security Teams and Make Network Situational Awareness More Widely Available

/by

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Sept. 10, 2018 — RedSeal, the leader in network modeling and cyber risk scoring, today introduced RedSeal Remote Administrator, a new managed service to augment customers’ security teams, make network situational awareness more widely available, and help customers increase their digital resilience.

Most enterprises have dozens of disparate security products in their environment, each requiring administration and maintenance. At the same time, they face a cybersecurity skills gap: there are not enough qualified people to operate even the products they have.

RedSeal Remote Administrator addresses these issues by becoming an essential part of an organization’s security team.  As part of the service, a dedicated network security engineer will maintain and administer RedSeal’s network modeling and risk scoring platform. Customers will always have a single, up-to-date model of all their network environments – including public cloud, private cloud and physical assets – to validate their security, accelerate their investigation, and improve their productivity.

Specifically, RedSeal will provide Remote Administrator customers with the necessary resources to maintain their deployment, keeping it current and in exceptional working order. This includes a daily cadence of reviewing the network model, ensuring that data collection tasks are working, maintaining the topology map to see that new devices are properly placed, providing scheduled reports, and making certain that the platform is performing as expected.

“Security practitioners need to understand how everything is connected in their networks in order to defend them.  It’s essential for our customers to have an updated and working model so they can continuously improve their security,” said Kurt Van Etten, chief product officer at RedSeal.  “RedSeal Remote Administrator augments an organization’s security team to continuously deliver an accurate model.  The service allows customers to benefit from RedSeal situational awareness—without the need for additional headcount or in-house expertise. They can quickly get the information they need.”

Organizations simply need network access (VPN and Jumpbox) to get started with RedSeal Remote Administrator. The service is available internationally and RedSeal Remote Administrator representatives are on call Monday to Friday during U.S. business hours.

Thorough testing from Joint Interoperability Test Command (JTIC) and DoD Interoperability (IO) certifies RedSeal is secure, trusted and approved to model and monitor U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and DISA networks

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 18, 2018 – RedSeal (www.redseal.net), the leader in network modeling and cyber risk scoring, today announced that the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) added its RedSeal platform to the Department of Defense (DoD) Unified Capabilities (UC) Approved Products List (APL). RedSeal is now certified to model and monitor any network within the DoD infrastructure, including those of the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and DISA.

RedSeal’s patented platform models and continuously monitors network infrastructure, providing visibility into network segmentation, as well as a measure of overall resiliency, to deliver risk-based situational awareness. The Joint Interoperability Test Command (JTIC) and the DoD Interoperability (IO) certifying authority issued its approval, confirming RedSeal meets all Common Criteria and FIPS 140-2 certification to achieve its place on the UC APL, the DoD’s master list of secure and approved products for deployment within the DoD’s infrastructure.

Due to the DoD’s extensive criteria – which also includes IA and STIG testing – federal agencies and Global 2000 companies often look to the DoDIN APL for the best technology. Currently, RedSeal is the only certified product that creates a network model from the inside out, including physical assets, as well as those in public and private cloud environments.

This certification stems from a $33.8 million multi-year contract DISA awarded to RedSeal in January 2017, to model and continuously monitor the infrastructure of the Joint Regional Security Stacks (JRSS). This DoD program creates a single, standardized, security architecture, which will eventually support more than 95 percent of the DoD’s network.

“The UC-APC achievement will expedite network, cybersecurity and risk management teams’ efforts to build, operate and verify resilient networks,” said Kimberly Baker, Public Sector SVP and GM for RedSeal. “The UC-APL provides for reciprocity between the services and provides authority to operate (ATO) without continually recertifying, which will accelerate RedSeal’s already significant growth into DoD networks. Our partner community is excited about this achievement, which gives them an unmatched differentiator for their cyber solutions for DoD as well as accelerates procurements.”

The DoDIN APL approval of RedSeal platform as a Cybersecurity Tool is posted on the DoDIN APL site.

More than half of federal IT officials in a new survey say their agencies aren’t keeping pace with evolving cybersecurity threats

/by

A new survey of IT leaders at civilian, defense and intelligence agencies explores how prepared agencies are to continue operating during an attack.

WASHINGTON, D.C.  — Two-thirds of federal IT executives in a new survey say their agencies are moderately-to-highly prepared to withstand a cyberattack and continue to function. But a number of gaps in cybersecurity resilience remain.

Nearly 7 in 10 federal civilian agency IT leaders — and more than half (55 percent) of their defense and intelligence agency counterparts — say their agencies aren’t keeping pace with evolving threats, according to the study.

Though 2 in 3 respondents report their agency “has sufficient tools to identify cyberthreats,” well over half still say their agencies “don’t have all the tools and resources they need in place to respond to cyberthreats,” according to the new study, released by CyberScoop and FedScoop, and underwritten by RedSeal.

The study found about roughly two-thirds of IT officials surveyed say their agency can detect — and more than half say they can respond to — cybersecurity incidents within 12 hours. But tracking “incidents” may belie deeper threats lurking in networks, observed Wayne Lloyd, federal chief technology officer at RedSeal.

The study explored how resilient federal agencies are at withstanding cyberattacks, what tools and activities they rely on most to respond to identify and respond to attacks, and the top investment priorities and concerns of agency officials.

Executives are investing most heavily now in data and network protection tools and threat intelligence, but “they still need help overcoming a talent shortage of cybersecurity professionals,” said Wyatt Kash, SVP of Content Strategy at Scoop News Group, which publishes CyberScoop and FedScoop.

The findings are based on responses from more than 100 prequalified federal agency government IT, cybersecurity and mission, business or program executives. All respondents are involved either in identifying IT and network security requirements, evaluating or deciding on solutions and contractors, allocating budgets, or implementing or maintaining cybersecurity solutions. The study was completed in the first quarter of 2018.

XL Catlin and RedSeal Launch Cyber Insurance Industry’s First Dynamic Measure of Resilience to Gauge Risk, Improve Cybersecurity and Insurance Terms

/by

Collaboration delivers unprecedented, continual insights to help underwriters evaluate cyber risk at policy issuance and during the policy; Companies can use information to improve network resilience and policy terms

 NEW YORK, March 27, 2018 — XL Catlin and RedSeal today announced a new, dynamic approach to cyber insurance, which uses an objective measurement of a network’s resilience to help underwriters more thoroughly evaluate their clients’ risks over time, helps clients continue to improve their cybersecurity and potentially improve their insurance terms.

Unlike other cyber insurance risk analyses, which rely on surveys and a general understanding of the network at the time of the initial underwriting, XL Catlin’s approach offers its clients a more accurate, dynamic and helpful service.

RedSeal’s patented network modeling and risk scoring platform creates a network model from the inside out, including physical assets, as well as those in public and private cloud environments. With this insight, RedSeal calculates the Digital Resilience Score, a holistic measure of the network’s resilience, similar to a credit worthiness score. The Score evaluates the client’s network to determine:

  • How weaknesses from incorrectly configured devices and third-party software could impact the network;
  • How accessible a company’s valuable assets are to attackers; and
  • The degree to which the network – including all its devices and their connections – is understood.

More resilient networks deliver higher scores, which means they are potentially lower risks. Once an XL Catlin client installs RedSeal and gets their initial Digital Resilience Score, and again during a mid-term evaluation, XL Catlin will determine if the client’s resilience warrants improved terms.

“We see this collaboration as a win-win for all involved,” said John Coletti, chief underwriting officer, cyber and technology, XL Catlin. “We’re giving our clients the option to create a cycle of continuous improvement in their cyber security efforts. Plus, our underwriters have more in-depth information to evaluate their risk and provide the most appropriate policy terms and pricing – and our customers can use the same information to improve their resilience and lower their risk.”

“The cyber insurance industry is evolving quickly, and technology companies are working to provide useful, data-driven solutions that matter,” said Ray Rothrock, CEO and chairman of RedSeal. “RedSeal’s platform of network modeling and scoring provides unique insights and hard to find issues within digital enterprises for both XL Catlin’s underwriters and their clients, which we expect will benefit both. We’re enabling a new, collaborative era in cyber insurance and cybersecurity.”

LOS ANGELES (March 6, 2018) – RedSeal, the leader in network modeling and cyber risk scoring, has been selected from thousands of nominees to present at the annual Montgomery Summit, the leading business and technology conference taking place in Santa Monica, Calif. on March 7 and 8. RedSeal CMO Julie Parrish will discuss the company’s business strategy, proprietary technology, and market positioning to an invited audience of 1,000 entrepreneurs, corporate executives and venture capitalists.

“C-Suites understand that cyber security is both a fiduciary and ethical responsibility, and are keenly aware that prevention and detection strategies are just not enough.   They know they need to build resilience into their environments” said Julie Parrish, Chief Marketing Officer at RedSeal. “But these  environments are very complex – with layers of physical and virtual devices,  SDN and public clouds – it’s hard to accurately “see” your entire network today.   RedSeal delivers the foundation for digital resilience: the ability to see and model the entire network; the insights needed to accelerate investigation and prioritize activities before and during an attack, and a Digital Resilience Score to continuously measure and improve resilience.”

“This year’s Summit will be an exclusive opportunity for leading emerging private companies to showcase their innovations to a room of entrepreneurs and investors and forge connections to take their businesses to the next level,” said Jamie Montgomery, founder of The Montgomery Summit. “We continue to see the best and brightest presenters nominated from a range of industries, from Enterprise AI to Fin Tech, and look forward to the insight and expertise they will bring to this year’s conference.”

This year, a global committee of senior investors from top venture capital and growth funds, prior Summit attendees, researchers, entrepreneurs and Summit partners and staff selected 140 companies to present from over 4,000 nominations. Nominations were evaluated by each company’s sector, stage, growth and engagement metrics, as well as criteria including management, vision, and more.

In addition to presentations from top private growth company CEOs, the two-day event features industry leaders and top innovators in a series of keynotes, panels and salons. Speakers at this year’s Summit include George Kurtz, CEO & Co-Founder, Crowdstrike, Tom Siebel, CEO of C3 IoT, Sue Siegel, Chief Innovation Officer at GE & CEO of GE Ventures, Sam Walker, Author, The Captain Class: The Hidden Force that Creates the World’s Greatest Teams, and Julie Sweet, CEO of Accenture. Additionally, the Summit will feature The Rise of the Female Entrepreneur program on March 8th, which will highlight the rising role of female entrepreneurs and investors in the technology world.

The Top 100 Global list celebrates private companies’ innovations and technologies across their respective industries and has become a mark of distinction for identifying promising companies and entrepreneurs.

“We are honored to be recognized by this prestigious publication for the third year in a row,” said RedSeal CEO and chairman, Ray Rothrock. “Globally, we’re seeing significant demand for RedSeal’s platform, which helps organizations increase their resilience to cyber attack. Organizations today need confidence that they can withstand an attack, mitigate damage, and maintain the trust of their constituents.  The RedSeal platform validates and measures security posture before an attack, prioritizes risk areas and speeds investigation and containment – across complex cloud and physical network environments.”

Red Herring editors have an excellent track record of predicting the technologies and companies that will change the way we live and work – Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Skype, Salesforce.com, YouTube, and eBay are all former Top 100 Global company winners.

“Choosing the companies with the strongest potential was by no means a small feat,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. “After rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across the globe to the Top 100 Winners. We believe RedSeal embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. RedSeal should be proud of its accomplishment.”

Red Herring’s editorial staff evaluated the companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technology innovation, management quality, strategy, and market penetration. This assessment of potential is complemented by a review of the track records and standing of startups relative to their peers, allowing Red Herring to see past the “buzz” and make the list a valuable instrument of discovery and advocacy for the most promising new business models from around the world.
