Digital Shadows: Cyber Monitoring Inside
July 29, 2020
DarkCyber has pointed out in this blog and in the DarkCyber video news programs that cyber security generates hyperbole. Funding sources pump in cash. Companies buy not one cyber security system; big and mid-sized outfits buy news ones with each change of security professionals.
Why?
Most of the cyber security systems focus on what happened in the past. However, bad actors — some well funded by low profile operators — focus on the here and now.
Not surprisingly, competing claims, pricing plays, and fearful prospects keep the wheel spinning.
“Digital Shadows Announces Integration with Atlassian Jira” indicates that the stealthy Digital Shadows has moved inside an issue tracking and project tracking platform. Presumably the “SearchLight Inside” deal will deliver better security to Jira users. Will this tie up boost Atlassian stock?
DarkCyber assumes that other Dark Web and cyber threat indexing services will pursue similar “inside” deals.
The real test comes when licensees of these “inside” cyber threat solutions demonstrate they can avoid Garmin- and Twitter-type security breaches.
