Prepare for the worst

The pressure to get back online starts before you know the full extent of an attack. Deciding who can authorize recovery, which services take priority and what must be checked before reconnection is easier before an outage forces your hand.

How do you recover from a ransomware attack?

Stolen credentials and compromised backups can undermine recovery. Secure administrative access and validate restored systems before reconnecting services.

Data center server racks with illuminated equipment, monitoring terminals and overhead security cameras. Hardware security.

The future of hardware security in network infrastructure

Hardware security’s future lies in wider use of attestation, protected workloads and adaptable cryptography to establish trust across network infrastructure.

In case you missed it

Fire Ant router compromise

If your router is compromised, what can you trust?

The Fire Ant campaign shows how attackers can manipulate network infrastructure, weaken forensic evidence and force defenders to verify device activity independently.

After the breach: how attackers find the one route that matters

Attackers do not need a complete network map after a breach. They need one workable route to broader access, higher privilege, or valuable systems and data.

Network segmentation fails one hop from the internet

Trusted paths through management systems can expose data center power, cooling, and building controls even when direct internet access is blocked.

“Everything is working” is a reassuring answer to the wrong question. Ask what an attacker could reach from one compromised device, and what you would need to take it out of service. Those answers are worth having before you need them.
