Vulnerability Management in 3 weeks

Making a "dent" in the Universe....

We like to think we "move the dial" and have a positive impact for our clients at edgescan. Our combination of technology and expertise helps our clients very quickly prioritize and focus on vulnerabilities which matter. 

 Realistically as a managed vulnerability intelligence service we do the "heavy lifting" so our partners and clients can work on remediation and improvement coupled with on-going situational awareness.

 We put together a short video to explain this a little better, Hope you like it.

Edgescan, why we do what we do.....

  The cyber security industry is full of solutions to make you more secure. Some are unproven and other approaches work if deployed properly. Our industry is very fragmented. for example a recent "Cyber Defense" award I noticed has 195 categories!  I suppose we need to ask ourselves as companies from time to time why we do what we do?  So, the following post is, I guess, the reason we developed Edgescan and why we believe its a decent solution to help organizations improve and be more resilient in relation to cyber security and system protection.... Vulnerability scanning alone did not work. The idea of software testing software for vulnerabilities is a good one but both sides of the equation may have bugs. Bugs in one side (The target) may result in vulnerabilities, whilst bugs on the other side (Scanner) may result in false negatives and false positives.  Accuracy : To that end we built edgescan as a combination of automation to discover vulnerabilities at scale but  when c

Cyber Security: Keeping Pace with Change. Getting breached can really ruin your day. Actually it normally happens on a friday evening as you are about chill for the weekend. The cause of must breaches is not rocket science, its more to do with the poor approach we have accepted because we underestimate the threat actor.  - An attacker does not scan your website/network once a quarter with a commercial or open source scanner or perform an annual penetration test against your systems to see if there is any low hanging fruit, so how do we expect to defend against such an advisory using that approach? Systems change now more frequently than ever due to the ease of cloud deployments and the speed of software deployments due to iterative development techniques. The rate of change increase results in exposures quickly manifesting and the organisation not even being aware of the exposure in the first place. Many organisations dont know what they have exposed on the public Internet. We need t

The HSE Data Breach and the State of Irish Cyber Security Many years ago, shortly after I founded the Irish chapter of OWASP ( http://www.owasp.org ) (in 2007??) we were delivering free application and software development classes to anyone who wanted them. It was a local low key affair but every class we delivered was "sold out". We have 60-80 folks mostly developers willing to spend 4-5 hours on learning the fundamentals of secure application development and testing. I suppose we felt cyber security was an important issue because that's what we did. At the time many folks in business felt cyber security was an overhead or a "tax" and did not give it much time. A few years later (late 2010) when the the foundation of the NCSC (National Cyber Security Centre) was announced, a few of us (local OWASP Ireland leaders) wrote a number of emails to the Irish government offering free cyber security training. As we were working for a non profit (501.3c) charity (OWA
