Federal Law Enforcement Agency Uses Cribl Stream™ to Accelerate Cybersecurity Investigations

Download this Case Study to learn how the agency uses Cribl Stream to make it easier to discover the origin of the cyberattacks they investigate. Entities who need help investigating these attacks often share terabytes of historical data with the government agency — most of which end up being irrelevant. According to one of the agency’s engineers, “The best way to treat data is to give it an analytical home where it can scale,” — with Stream, they can do just that.

2023 Identity Security Threat Landscape Report

Levels of cyber debt — where investment in digital and cloud initiatives outpaces cybersecurity investment — in organizations around the world are at risk of compounding, driven by an economic squeeze, elevated levels of staff turnover, a consumer spend downturn and an uncertain global environment. This report examines how the interplay of all these factors will result in increased attacker opportunity. Indeed, as adversaries embrace artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance and scale their identity-based attacks, security teams are being asked to do more with less as budget cuts widen existing skills and resource gaps.

The importance of a data-first approach to security

Facing persistent and ever-evolving cyber threats, it is imperative for the Federal Government to rethink the conventional security perimeters, which are fragmented and ineffective. Agencies must adopt a data-first strategy to safeguard mission-critical data and ensure it is protected at-rest, in-transit, and in-use, even if Zero Trust fails.

The Path to Zero Trust Starts with Identity

Large-scale cyberattacks have rocked both the public and private sector in recent years, causing everything from data loss to a fuel shortage along the Eastern seaboard – and they aren’t letting up. With our critical infrastructure — including healthcare, energy, and education systems — and government agencies in hackers’ crosshairs, cybersecurity has been elevated to a national security issue. Federal agencies have worked for a long time to enhance, standardize, and secure the identities of their employees and contractors who access Federal networks. While they have made many ICAM improvements, agency environments are rife with legacy identity technologies, which lead to common identity challenges. These challenges can make it difficult to implement Zero Trust. We review these challenges and ways to overcome them by modernizing existing identity infrastructure.

Best Practices for Identity in Denied, Disrupted, Intermittent, and Limited Bandwidth (DDIL) Environments

There are significant challenges to maintaining clear operational lines of sight into denied, degraded intermittent or limited-bandwidth (DDIL) environments. The hallmark challenge for DDIL environments is that connectivity between local missions and the enterprise “mothership” network is unreliable. Navigating the DDIL reality well means extending access quickly, securely and in a way that is auditable. Download this white paper to learn how.
