Cyber security measures are much more important today in a world that’s getting ever so connected. This is because of increased threats, which must be addressed, and threats that could compromise the integrity of your data as well as the operational continuity of your business. Such challenges, therefore, mean alternative advanced security solutions to ensure safe and efficient running of operations.

The Evolving Cyber Threat Landscape

The more our digital environment advances, the greater are the cybersecurity threats. Last week, one recent addition to the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) list caught our attention: CVE-2024-23113. This is one of the most severe vulnerabilities impacting several Fortinet products, including FortiOS, FortiProxy, FortiPAM, and FortiWeb, respectively carrying a CVSS score of 9.8.

This format string vulnerability enables attackers to run unauthorized commands through specially crafted packets in more than 86,000 devices. Already, active exploitation is underway and for that reason, requires proactive security measures by organizations to secure their environments.

The Security Strategy: Be Comprehensive

More than ever, the disjointed security measures that are no longer sufficient in the current threat landscape cannot be met by most organizations. An integrated security strategy capable of coping with emerging vulnerabilities is, therefore, what must be the approach. This is where synchronized security solutions come in.

Sophos and Sangfor have a robust, complementary solution designed to perform seamlessly together in giving multiple layers of defense against cyber attacks. Building on the capabilities of endpoint protection, network security, and threat intelligence, these solutions let the organizations stay aware and in control of their whole digital infrastructure.

Benefits through Synchronized Security

  • Improved Threat Detection:Sophos and Sangfor interconnect dispersed layers of security, which improves the more effective timing of detection and response action thereby significantly reducing the chances of exploitation.
  • Enable Real-Time Response: In cases where exploitation occurs, a synchronized system can automatically activate responses in accordance with all of the security measures by providing a pretty good assurance of rapid containment and mitigation.
  • Offer Comprehensive Protection: Capabilities of Sophos and Sangfor can now help protect systems against so many forms of malware and ransomware attacks, even those that try to exploit vulnerabilities in systems.

Partnering for Stronger Security

We realize security is not something that belongs in one niche; it is something that takes a niche in Alishan. Utilizing the strengths of both Sophos and Sangfor will be able to help your organization build a cohesive approach in security that’ll be able to conquer specific known ones, such as CVE-2024-23113, while keeping you prepared to face ones in the future.

Striding into the Future with Confidence

The current landscape of vulnerabilities calls for constant vigilance and proactive measures. Instead of sitting by watching threats become a full-fledged problem, maybe it is time to begin thinking more about a holistic, solutions-focused approach toward security strategy. It is easier to strengthen defenses and protect an organization effectively with the integrated solutions from Sophos and Sangfor.
