Which firewall solution would you recommend for an SMB with 50 employees and around 100 devices?

Hello, I have been using Kerio Control for many years. You can download this as an ISO image, an image for Hyper-V, VMWare, and also buy it as a HW box.

Which of the ECM products compares the best to ASG Mobius Document direct?

There are several systems that are capable of providing security at a document level, with encryption a rest, and a robust API. But as far as granularity goes, I don't see much else being able to apply indexing and security to an individual paragraph on a page.

Can RPA interface with any application?

@Lillian Moya-Levi totally agree, you could consume APIs from RPA tools and it's a quite friendly. By other hand you asked about the compatibility from RPA to extract data from any application, I understood. Let me share you a brief How to choose between interface or RPA? If you have a legacy system perhaps, you'd try scrapping technique because the APIs doesn't be developed. It means sometimes not 100% accuracy but with the new AI integration components you could do it faster, handled and more accurately. Whether you have a Dev Team available to work with you and it's been developing APIs for the applications you need to integrate, simply use the APIs is the fastest way to gathering information. But if you don't sure about what is the best way when you don't have APIs and it's a third-party system, the best way is to make a Proof of Concept first (PoC). Hope this helps.

At what point does a business typically invest in building a data warehouse?

There is no definitive answer to when a business should invest in building a data warehouse, as it depends on various factors such as the size, complexity, and goals of the business. However, some common signs that indicate a need for a data warehouse are: The business has multiple sources of data that are not integrated or consistent The business needs to perform complex or ad-hoc queries and analyses on large volumes of historical data The business wants to improve its decision-making and performance by using business intelligence (BI) and data analytics tools The business wants to reduce the load and latency on its operational systems by separating the analytical and transactional workloads One article that I found helpful and relevant to your question is this one: https://www.cleveroad.com/blog... . It gives a comprehensive overview of what is a business intelligence data warehouse, how it works, what are the benefits and challenges, and what are the best practices for building one. I think it can help you understand the concept and value of a data warehouse better and decide whether it’s suitable for your business. I hope this helps!

Splunk Enterprise Security

Rishabh Gandhi

Senior Security Analyst at Inspira Enterprise India Pvt. Ltd.

Can be used to find any threats or vulnerabilities inside a user’s environment

Splunk Enterprise Security has a learning curve that needs to be improved. I have seen users struggle with Splunk just because of the language they've used to create it. I've recently started working for the past three months on Sentinel. The same thing happens with Sentinel, where you select certain things, and it will create a query for you. It would be great if I could have a certain dialogue box in Splunk that uses innovative AI tools like ChatGPT, which are available now in the tech department. If a user is struggling, they can just ask an AI tool what they are trying to do with a query, and then it can suggest how a query can be written for a particular user. It can help in a way to understand the context of what the user is trying to write, which will be very helpful for ongoing operations. Even if users have zero knowledge, they can get comfortable with Splunk much more easily if an AI tool helps them write a query or search for any indexes or data models. It will be able to give more context to the user regarding how they should approach the query. This can be done using AI tools like ChatGPT, which will understand the context of what the user is trying to approve and give suggestions based on it.

Veracode

Robert Hood

Information Security Architect at a tech vendor with 5,001-10,000 employees

Great SAST, good DAST, and helps save a significant amount of time

From what we have seen of Veracode's SCA offering, it is just average. The SBOM is adequate, but it's essentially the same as what everyone else is doing. In terms of SCA, they are about average compared to other systems. Therefore, I would like to see some improvements. SAST, DAST, and SCA in a single pane of glass would be a good upgrade to Veracode. We are a Jira and Confluence shop and I would like to have a really good integration with those tools. We have a ticketing system that not too many companies have ever heard of. In fact, I had never heard of it before coming here. Instead of using a well-known industry standard like ServiceNow, we use a ticketing system called Cherwell, which also has an open API. Having an API for the ticketing system would be really beneficial. I would prefer if Veracode offered more options for licensing, such as a pipeline or project license instead of a user license. Currently, I have around seven hundred users, but I manage fewer projects. Therefore, I believe it would be more beneficial and efficient for me if Veracode could adopt a project-based pricing model. In reality, I have multiple teams working on various projects simultaneously. Pricing based on the number of projects I have up and running would be more suitable for my needs compared to the number of developers working on a particular project. One thing that I would like to be able to do is to receive a daily summary of the emails I currently receive. With numerous ongoing projects, constant scanning occurs, resulting in a high volume of emails about what is being processed. I believe it would be helpful if Veracode could create a daily summary of these emails. This way, I can easily track the number of actual emails I receive without having to go through each one individually. As of now, I already have 65 emails from Veracode, specifically regarding the processes that ran today.

Prisma Access by Palo Alto Networks

Nikolay Dimitrov

Cyber Security Engineer at C-Serv

Supports auto-scaling for mobile users and provides the ability to create custom threat signatures

It can be improved if some customers want to use Prisma Access only for web traffic. Currently, it is a bit limited. Zscaler works better for web traffic. Zscaler's agent application on your computer can configure the proxy settings automatically, whereas Palo Alto's GlobalProtect agent is only a VPN solution. You can't use it also as a secure gateway agent to force the computer to have the settings to send the data to Prisma Access. They suggest using other techniques to force the computer to use Prisma Access for a secure web gateway solution. So, Zscaler is more like a secure web gateway, and Prisma Access is more like a full VPN solution. I see the limitations of both vendors. Palo Alto needs to improve the GlobalProtect agent to work as a secure web gateway agent, not only as a VPN agent because some companies would want only a secure gateway. They wouldn't want a full VPN. So, Palo Alto has to make the VPN agent work as a secure web gateway agent for those customers who want only the secure web gateway solution. Other vendors' agents, including ForcePoint which I don't like at all, can do that. One feature that I find missing in Prisma Access, as well as Palo Alto firewalls, is that they can't insert the 644 header. I want to be able to see the IP address of the users basically. My understanding is that almost no firewall can do this. It is not only Palo Alto, but it would be good to have this feature. The only vendor that I know can insert it is FortiGate, but with them, many other things don't work.
