Are you prepared to handle Incident Response in your AWS accounts? Like many things AWS Security, preparation often starts with your AWS Account structure. From the AWS Security IR Guide: It’s helpful to have a structure that supports the functions of incident response, such as having a security Organizational Unit (OU) and a forensics OU. Within the security OU, you should have accounts for: Log archival – Aggregate logs in a log archival AWS account Security tooling – Centralize security services in a security tool AWS account Within the forensics OU, you have the option to implement a single forensics account or accounts for each Region that you operate in, depending on which works best for your business and operational mode. Because it takes time to provision new accounts, it is imperative to create and instrument the forensics accounts well ahead of an incident so that responders can be prepared to effectively use them for response. The following diagram displays a sample account structure including a forensics OU with per-Region forensics accounts: For help or to answer your AWS Security questions, contact our team today: https://lnkd.in/gxeqZBnk For more details from AWS, review the AWS IR Guide: https://lnkd.in/gZ4JWQY

Security tools, while valuable and important, can be noisy. That noise creates overhead and makes locating real threats difficult and time consuming, becoming a "find the needle in a haystack" problem. Soteria Defense MDR provides many values. One of them is Quiet. Taken from a real client touchpoint, this image shows the Quiet our team delivers. The client's security platforms generated 528 alerts. We managed, triaged, and responded to them on their behalf. The result? The client's team only had to touch ONE alert for the entire month, a 528 to 1 reduction. Keep your focus on delivering your mission. Leave the cybersecurity to us. Want results like this? https://lnkd.in/gxeqZBnk

things we take for granted. or do we? after a career on Wall St. in offices all around the NY City metro area and Connecticut, travel to many cities across the global landscape from the US, Canada, Latam, UK, Euro, Asia-Pac, Aus, NZ, which ended in 2011, it is fascinating to the team I travel with now. Our Soteria - Security Solutions & Advisory cyber security team visits the NY metro area now and then and each time we do, the team I travel with is always amazed at how out of a "seemingly" sea of people walking up or down any given Street or Avenue, someone stops and says, "Glenn, is that you?" It has been fun to re-engage with people in all industry groups where we had mutually beneficial interactions throughout my >25 years at AllianceBernstein, Goldman Sachs, and UBS. With hopes that a future trip to #london will elicit similar engagements, I look forward to seeing the many who were such an amazing part of my earlier career. #innovation #informationsecurity soteria.io

With Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) in recent cybersecurity headlines, AWS announced two MFA-related updates last week: 1. AWS is adding passkeys to the list of supported MFA options for root and AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) users For the first release, they decided to use passkeys as a second factor authentication, in addition to a password (not as a replacement for it). 2. AWS is starting to ENFORCE MFA on root users, starting with the root user of the management account in an AWS Organization, with plans to roll out to other accounts the rest of the year MFA is (fortunately) becoming mandatory (with enforcement) on major service provider platforms and SaaS products.
