RedSeal Enhances Digital Resilience Platform, Dramatically Reducing Network Analysis Time and Boosting Security Team Productivity

/by

Expanded coverage of hybrid datacenters creates more complete and accurate network models
New integration apps accelerate incident investigations and bring live traffic into RedSeal platform

SUNNYVALE, Calif. – November 14, 2017 – RedSeal today announced new enhancements and integrations for its market leading network modeling and risk scoring platform, used by more than 40 U.S. government agencies and many Global 2000 companies worldwide.

More Holistic View Across Hybrid Datacenters

Nearly all large enterprises today include on-premise, cloud and virtualized networks, which results in network systems that are large, complex, and constantly changing. This makes it very difficult to have a complete and detailed understanding of the current state of a network. To address this, RedSeal is expanding its Software Defined Networks (SDN) and public cloud capabilities with the addition of Microsoft Azure ARM (Azure Resource Manager) modeling, and support for RedSeal’s virtual appliance to run on Microsoft Hypervisor, Hyper-V. This builds on its existing ability to model networks on Amazon Web Services Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs), and software-defined networks (SDNs) in VMWare NSX, and Cisco ACI.

CIS Benchmarks

RedSeal also announces support for CIS Benchmarks for Cisco, enabling customers to conduct secure configuration checks of their network devices against the CIS standard.

New Integrations for Improved Productivity

To improve security team productivity, RedSeal is adding new integration apps with IBM’s QRadar SIEM and Micro Focus ArcSight’s Enterprise Security Management (ESM) software. RedSeal customers can also bring live traffic information from Gigamon’s Visibility Platform directly into their RedSeal queries. Specifically:

  • Gigamon Visibility Platform customers can now call Gigamon from the RedSeal user interface to see if live traffic is occurring in any detailed path query in RedSeal.
  • Apps for IBM’s QRadar SIEM and Micro Focus ArcSight’s ESM dramatically reduce incident investigation times for users by giving them unprecedented network context and actionable intelligence. By integrating RedSeal’s network modeling platform into their current interface, they will be able to quickly kick off an incident investigation phase by cross launching the RedSeal IR query directly from the console of the product they use.

These add to RedSeal’s existing suite of integration apps with Splunk’s Enterprise Security SIEM, Rapid7’s Insight VM vulnerability management software, and ForeScout’s CounterACT, announced earlier this year.

“Bad actors continue to unleash advanced attacks targeting vulnerabilities enterprises don’t know exist,” Kurt Van Etten, vice president of product management at RedSeal. “The first step to improving digital resilience is to prepare for these unknown and unavoidable attacks by having a complete understanding of access across hybrid datacenters. These new enhancements bring our customers a holistic view of their network, whether on-premise, virtual or in the cloud, while accelerating incident containment times through increased power and deep integrations with current security solutions.”

RedSeal Resilience Report: Cyber Pros Point to “Perfect Storm” as Security Fundamentals Face Crisis

/by

New research from RedSeal indicates four critical areas are in distress:

  • The threat landscape is growing faster than teams can respond
  • Lack of preparation is pervasive
  • Huge gap between perceived and true detection times
  • Compliance– not company strategy – drives cyber planning

Sunnyvale, Calif. – November 3, 2017 – RedSeal, the leader in network modeling and cyber risk scoring, today released the results of its second annual Resilience Report, which found IT Security teams are on the verge of a huge crisis.

The 2017 Resilience Report asked 600 U.S. and UK CISOs and senior IT decision makers about the biggest challenges they face. Across the board, the majority report four areas central to cybersecurity are all at risk –  resources, preparation, detection and overarching strategy – exposing their organizations to significant cyber threats.

Download the full infographic

1. A sophisticated threat landscape, evolving faster than teams can respond

The burgeoning threat volume and complexity is outpacing security teams’ capabilities. More than half (54 percent) of senior cybersecurity professionals think the threat landscape is evolving far faster than their organization can respond. Specifically:

  • 54 percent report they don’t have the tools and resources they need
  • 55 percent can’t react quickly enough to limit damage in the event of a major security incident
  • 79 percent say their organization can’t access insights to prioritize their response to an incident
  • Only one in five (20 percent) are extremely confident their organization will continue running as usual upon discovery of a cyberattack or breach

2. Lack of preparation is pervasive

The 2017 RedSeal Resilience Report found that only 25 percent of respondents’ organizations test their cybersecurity response to a major incident annually, if at all.  It also found a strong correlation: as time since the last test increases, executives’ confidence in the plan decreases.

  • On average, it has been nine months since organizations created a complete blueprint, model or map of their entire network. This means pathways through their constantly changing network – and access to their most valuable assets – are neither confirmed to be secure nor clearly known at all.
  • 55 percent concede they don’t test their strategies frequently enough because it is resource intensive (29 percent), outside their budget (27 percent), or takes too much time (26 percent)

3. There’s a dangerous gap between perceived and true detection times

Once a network is compromised, a cyberattack festers until it’s detected and resolved. Alarmingly, the RedSeal Resilience report reveals an industry-wide discrepancy between how long it takes from when an organization’s network is compromised to when they become aware of the event.

  • Perception:  When ranking their capabilities, cyber pros voted “detection” as their strongest area (40 percent), with respondents reporting it takes an average of six hours to discover an incident
  • Reality: Other studies of the same “time to detect” report drastically different times:

This infers that – despite detection being considered the security teams’ greatest strength – companies are struggling and not fully informed. Take for example, Sonic, which didn’t know they were hacked until their credit card processor informed them of unusual activity. They acknowledged the breach – which compromised more than five million credit cards – 11 days after the first batch of cards were uploaded for sale.

4. Compliance – not strategy – drives security planning

Given the massive financial impact of breaches, cyber strategy should be the C-Suite’s priority. However, 97 percent of respondents report that external regulations play a major role in their cybersecurity and resilience planning and implementation.

  • 92 percent of organizations have had to adapt the way that they meet regulatory requirements due to the use of public cloud platforms such as AWS and Microsoft Azure
    • 12 percent of respondents’ organizations had to do a total rethink
    • 49 percent had to make significant changes
  • Only 27 percent are completely confident their IT systems can support these regulations
    • Therefore, 73 percent of companies which might not meet the requirements for using public clouds – such as AWS, where Deloitte faltered, and Azure, the source of hacks for Dow Jones, Verizon, and RNC to name a few –may be more exposed to attacks and breaches.

“Having any one of these four areas – resources, preparation, detection and overarching strategy –  in crisis is dangerous. Combined, they’re the harbinger of security disaster for any organization,” noted Ray Rothrock, CEO and chairman of RedSeal. “This report underscores the urgency for the leaders of cyber strategy to pivot and aggressively pursue resilience, the ability to maintain business as usual while navigating an attack, as the new gold standard.  Being prepared is the best defense.”

The RedSeal Resilience Report 2017

The RedSeal Resilience Report 2017, an inside view into the state of the IT security industry, provides insights into strategies and challenges across the complex cybersecurity landscape.

Each of the 600 CISOs, CIOs and senior IT decision makers (400 U.S. and 200 UK) who participated had sole or majority responsibility for network cybersecurity within their organizations, 25 percent of which have more than 5,000 employees. They bring perspective from across a number of industry sectors including: retail and distribution; healthcare; technology; financial services; energy – oil and gas; manufacturing and production. Global market research firm, Vanson Bourne, conducted the research in the summer of 2017.

The 2016 RedSeal Resilience Report explored the, “Rise of Cyber-Overconfidence in the C-Suite,” and found more than 80 percent of CEOs display “cyber naiveté,” making their global organizations exposed to massive cyber-attacks.

RedSeal Further Expands Its Hybrid Datacenter Modeling Capability with Seamless Integration with Cisco ACI

/by

Security teams will gain holistic view of their entire network and boost productivity

SUNNYVALE, Calif. –  Today RedSeal increased its capabilities for modeling complex networks by adding a new integration with Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI). The integration between RedSeal’s network modeling and risk-scoring platform and Cisco ACI expands customers’ ability to create one, unified model of their hybrid datacenters —including devices that are on-premise, virtualized, and/or in a public cloud — and to conduct queries across all of these environments.

The digital infrastructure of today’s modern enterprise includes a complex array of on-premise, cloud and virtualized networks, which are constantly changing, making a complete and detailed understanding of the current state of a network a time-consuming and complex task. RedSeal’s ability to model complete hybrid datacenters – including software-defined networks (SDNs) in VMWare NSX and now Cisco ACI, as well as previously announced enhanced modeling of Amazon Web Services Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) – gives customers a comprehensive view of their entire as-built network.

The Cisco ACI integration builds on RedSeal’s ability to provide critical visibility into access controls for these hybrid datacenter environments, as well as alert users to violations of customized policies they have established for their organizations. This capability also helps security teams be more productive by allowing them to quickly and accurately model devices and associated policies within the Cisco ACI fabric.

“Enterprise security teams are struggling, as they’re understaffed and under pressure. When it comes to understanding network access across and within all of their network fabrics, they’re in the dark,” said Kurt Van Etten, product VP at RedSeal. “They need a holistic view of their network that’s deeply integrated with their current security solutions. The integration of Cisco’s ACI fabric with the RedSeal platform provides this visibility, giving enterprise security teams much needed context for prioritizing vulnerabilities, accelerating incident response, managing compliance, and improving the overall resilience of their infrastructure.”
