With DNS Attacks Growing Exponentially, Learn How to Protect Yourself

The Domain Name System (DNS), essential for internet functionality, has become a major target for cyberattacks. Created in the early eighties, DNS involves four types of servers: the DNS Recursor, Root Nameserver, Top Level Domain, and authoritative Nameserver, working together to translate web addresses to IP addresses.

Recently, there's been a spike in DNS Flood Attacks, particularly in 2023, making DNS attacks a preferred method for DDoS assaults. This vulnerability is exacerbated by inadequate security and confusion about management responsibilities. When a DNS server is targeted, it can lead to the loss of access to multiple websites and services, severely impacting businesses like ecommerce. Attacks on a single DNS server can lead to millions in lost revenue, damage to company reputation, and potential legal consequences.

Best Practices for Building an Incident Response Plan Modernized for Today's Ransomware

Building an incident response plan (IRP) is a critical part of any business' cybersecurity strategy. The primary objective of an IR plan is to minimize the impact of a cyber event, contain the spread of the threat and quickly restore normal operations while protecting sensitive data. With ransomware attacks growing in sophistication, having a systematic and well-structured IRP is a game changer to reduce financial, reputational and operational losses from a successful breach and can help your organization satisfy regulatory compliance.

In this Q&A session, SourceForge interviewed Steve Brining, Cybersecurity Evangelist at Acronis. Acronis unifies data protection and cybersecurity to deliver integrated cyber protection that solves the challenges of today's digital world. With over 30 years as a cybersecurity expert, Steve shares his valuable best practices for building a robust IRP that's modernized to identify, contain and resolve today's sophisticated ransomware and other advanced threats.

Why Platform Engineering Needs to Be Sustainable

Even after a decade of evangelizing, at least 80% of companies are struggling to adopt DevOps and hybrid cloud at scale. Platform engineering, the new kid on the block, takes an average of 3 years to implement and show tangible results, and, if you decide to do it yourself, an extra 20 people are dedicated to the project. And finally, we cannot ignore the devastating effect cloud usage has on the environment, resulting in larger-than-aviation carbon footprint numbers and billions of dollars in waste.

In this interview, Cycloid founder, Benjamin Brial, explains why companies should stop leaving sustainability as an afterthought and start tackling it from the get-go (with platform engineering support). Read more on SourceForge.net
