Build Your Own Cybersecurity Knowledge Base

Successful cybersecurity professionals build on past successes and learn from previous mis-steps. That's the whole idea of an ISAO. Creating a cybersecurity knowledge base can help you do that, and an ISAO provides the ability to store that information. It keeps you from spending time re-studying and re-discovering the same problems and solutions over and over.

If you're studying for cybersecurity certifications, such as CompTIA Security+ or CompTIA Cybersecurity Analyst (CySA+), you'll find that both expect you to have a working knowledge of typical cybersecurity threats. CySA+ especially expects you to understand how threat intelligence feeds work.

Cybersecurity professionals use their cybersecurity knowledge base to record specific TTPs. And there’s a free proof-of-concept tool that you can use to practice this activity. Yeti, an open source tool, makes this possible. No, I’m not talking about the Yeti coolers that everyone wants these days. I’m talking about a threat intelligence platform.

Yeti implements the Trusted Automated eXchange of Indicator Information (TAXII) protocol, which is often used by threat intelligence sharing services. This makes it possible to obtain and share information both within and outside of your organization. Once you get Yeti going, you (or anyone with an account) can log in and share information about TTPs.

If you subscribe to an ISAO or ISAC, you already have a more sophisticated service than Yeti. But if you're still studying threat intelligence feeds, setting up your own threat intelligence platform helps you better understand the world of threat feeds and threat intelligence sharing.

Reasons You Should Care About CompTIA A+

If you’re not already convinced that CompTIA A+ is a great way to launch your IT career, listen to what Zach Hill of I.T. Career Questions has to say. When the CompTIA A+ Core Series (220-1001/220-1002) launched earlier this year, he identified five things that excite him about the certification and why he thinks it’s relevant to today’s entry-level IT jobs, like help desk technician and technical support specialist. "In my opinion, CompTIA has really raised the bar with the new A+ certification,” Hill said in his video. “They have set a new standard while still keeping in mind that this exam is designed and developed for those who are seeking entry-level job roles.” Highlights of the CompTIA A+ Core Series Scripting: You won’t need to become a programmer or know coding inside and out, but you’ll need to understand the basics of how scripting works and the principles of scripting language. Cybersecurity: The CompTIA A+ Core Series has increased its coverage of cybersecurity, incl

DDoS for hire services

The service is also offering 5%, 7%, 10% and 15% discounts to prospective customers, with a return policy based on the remaining time from the originally purchased package. The service profiled in this post, is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the overall availability of DDoS for hire managed services within the cybercrime ecosystem. This fierce competition prompts for unique client acquisition tactics, such as offering complete anonymity throughout the purchasing and post-purchasing process in order to ensure that anyone can request any target, including high profile ones, to be attacked. Moreover, although the service is undermining the OPSEC (operational security) of the proposition by advertising on public forums, the business model of the competition is often driven by invite-only sales, where prospective customers are trusted and verified as hardcore cybercriminals with a significant credibility within the cybercrime ecosystem. These competing services even offer the po
