Top 10 Best Cloud Detection & Response (CDR) Solutions in 2026
Editorial scorecard ranks ten 2026 cloud detection and response platforms; Sysdig, Wiz, and CrowdStrike lead, with Wiz's Gem Security acquisition highlighted.
The editorial scorecard rates ten CDR platforms on real-time detection (30%), cloud telemetry depth, response automation, correlation, and value. Sysdig earns the best real-time detection score for its Falco- and eBPF-powered runtime telemetry, Wiz (8.7) folds acquired Gem Security's real-time CDR into its security graph, and CrowdStrike (8.7) leads response automation. Specialists Stream.Security, Skyhawk Security, Sweet Security, and the open-source Falco project are also assessed.

eBook: Identity-First Threat Intelligence
Enzoic promotes an eBook on identity-first threat intelligence addressing infostealer-driven credential exposure across AD and IAM.
Help Net Security promotes an Enzoic eBook on identity-first threat intelligence. It covers how infostealer malware accelerates credential theft, why password reuse turns consumer breaches into enterprise risk, and where traditional IAM and Active Directory protections fall short. The eBook advocates real-time credential intelligence from Dark Web monitoring for earlier exposure detection and automated response.

What vulnerability prioritization looks like when KEV, EPSS, and CVSS disagree
Cohesity field CISO Joye Purser ranks KEV over EPSS over CVSS and urges 24-72 hour patching of exploited internet-facing systems.
In a Help Net Security interview, Cohesity Global Field CISO Joye Purser lays out a vulnerability prioritization framework that puts active exploitation (KEV) first, then exploit likelihood (EPSS), then technical severity (CVSS), adjusted for asset exposure, business criticality, and compensating controls. She endorses 24-72 hour remediation targets for critical exploited internet-facing vulnerabilities and describes the organizational tradeoffs and emergency procedures needed to hit them. The interview also covers honeypot failure modes when deception systems are over-connected or over-trusted, and budget guidance recommending OT/IT segmentation, phishing-resistant MFA, and tested recovery for a 400-person manufacturer.

IAM Compliance Requirements and Best Practices
A guide maps IAM compliance requirements across SOX, PCI DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001 and NIST 800-53, urging verified enforcement over documented policies.
The guide argues IAM compliance requires demonstrating that access controls are enforced at runtime, not merely documented, highlighting gaps between policy intent and application-layer execution. It maps recurring requirements across SOX ITGCs, PCI DSS v4.0, HIPAA, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, NIST SP 800-53 and GDPR, covering least privilege, separation of duties, access certification and audit trails. It recommends continuous, evidence-backed verification and application-layer telemetry instead of relying on identity provider logs or quarterly access reviews.

What is Proactive Threat Intelligence? | Recorded Future
Recorded Future publishes a vendor explainer on proactive threat intelligence, arguing external adversary context helps teams act before alerts fire.
Recorded Future published a conceptual blog on proactive threat intelligence, describing how external context on adversaries, infrastructure, stolen credentials, and vulnerability exploitation helps security teams act before intrusions surface internally. The piece outlines a four-step program: defining intelligence requirements, collecting external sources including OSINT and dark web, analyzing relevance to the organization, and driving security actions. Use cases include prioritizing CVEs by real-world exploitation activity and identifying external exposure before it becomes an internal incident.

Top 10 Best Ransomware Protection Solutions in 2026
A 2026 buyer's guide ranks ten ransomware protection tools by kill-chain role as extortion shifts from encryption to data theft.
The roundup organizes defenses across the ransomware kill chain: prevention-grade EPP/EDR platforms, containment layers, rollback specialists, and immutable recovery. Recommended products include CrowdStrike, Microsoft Defender, Sophos, SentinelOne, Bitdefender, Trend Micro, Halcyon, Huntress, and Malwarebytes. It stresses that many crews now extort on stolen data without encrypting, making exfiltration detection and response speed as important as rollback.
