IT professionals like you know what you’re up against. The dynamics of today’s threat landscape require organizations to do more than just defend against cyber-attacks. While there will always be a need for defensive strategies and solutions, it is now essential for organizations to become more proactive and get ahead of threats to their critical assets.

Modern threat actors and the condition of today’s threat landscape are forcing the collective hand of cybersecurity to go on the offensive -- and federal agencies are no exception. As cyber attackers grow increasingly adept at identifying and exploiting infrastructure weaknesses, they will opt for the path of least resistance. Therefore, agencies with a security posture that goes beyond traditional cyber defenses will fall farther down the list of attack targets -- but they will still be targeted.
Though we have a new release planned for later this year, we’ve made some updates to Core Impact that we just couldn’t wait to release and share! First, we have a new agent written in Python to expand its use to different environments and further enhance its flexibility. Additionally, we’re staying on top of the latest threats by updating to the latest OWASP Top 10 list, making web application tests even more effective.
Fortra Vulnerability Management (formerly Frontline VM™) and Core Impact offer distinct but complementary approaches to infrastructure security. Fortra VM, a SaaS-based vulnerability management platform, specializes in intelligent network scanning and vulnerability prioritization.
Cyber criminals focus on the easiest targets, which often are federal agencies. A recent White House Executive Order on cybersecurity puts renewed focus squarely on securing federal network infrastructure. The order promotes, among other things, modernizing federal cybersecurity, improving detection of vulnerabilities and incidents, and moving toward a Zero Trust security model.

A recent White House Executive Order on cybersecurity puts renewed focus squarely on securing federal network infrastructure, which means federal agencies must step up their security games, complying with both existing and emerging regulations related to information security.
Cyber attackers are often portrayed as evil masterminds, but the truth is, most attackers are looking for the simplest wins. So what’s the best way to reduce your risk against threat actors? In addition to having reactive solutions and processes in place, organizations should also take a proactive approach, placing as many obstacles in an attacker’s way to make it too labor intensive to bother pursuing.
