Cybersecurity Insights & Expertise

Building a Security Operations Center (SOC) is no longer just a checkbox for compliance or a “nice-to-have” for large enterprises. As attack surfaces grow, environments become more distributed, and threats move faster, organizations need a centralized function that can continuously monitor, detect, and respond to security incidents. But building a SOC isn’t about buying tools and hiring analysts. It’s a strategic decision that touches people, processes, and technology and getting the order wron

What SOC Monitoring and Management Really Is SOC monitoring is frequently described as the act of collecting logs, generating alerts, and watching dashboards. While that definition is technically correct, it misses the operational purpose of a security operations center. The real goal of SOC monitoring is not visibility it is decision support. Monitoring should help security teams quickly determine whether something represents real risk, what impact it could have, and what action should be tak

Security Operations Centers were never designed to operate under continuous signal saturation. Yet for many organizations, the modern SOC experience is defined by endless alerts flowing directly from detection systems into ticketing tools, chat platforms, and case management systems with little to no processing in between. We've shared Modern SOC Guide earlier. At first glance, this model appears efficient. Alerts are delivered instantly. Nothing is dropped. Everything is logged. Visibility fee

A Security Operations Center (SOC) is supposed to be the nerve center of an organization’s security program. In reality, many SOCs struggle with alert fatigue, tool sprawl, unclear responsibilities, and rising costs while still missing real threats. This guide is written to fix that. Whether you are building a SOC from scratch, modernizing an existing one, or deciding whether to outsource to an MSSP, this article explains what a SOC actually does, how it should be designed, and how modern SOCs

An IPA file is the packaged, distributable format of an iOS application. It contains everything required to run your app on a device compiled binaries, configuration files, entitlements, and embedded resources. From a security perspective, that makes the IPA file the single most important artifact to review before an app reaches users or the App Store. For teams serious about iOS app security, inspecting the IPA is not optional. This is where real-world security issues surface, often long after

Large Language Model (LLM) security has become a critical concern as organizations deploy AI systems into production environments that handle sensitive data, internal workflows, and user-facing logic. While many teams rely on prompt filtering, content moderation, or policy-based guardrails, these approaches often fail against real threats. Modern LLM attacks are adaptive and multi-turn, exploiting the interactive nature of language models rather than a single unsafe response. LLMs is less about

By 2026, cybersecurity is no longer framed as a technical risk or even a business risk. The World Economic Forum’s Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2026 treats it as a structural condition of the global system one that is shaped by geopolitics, artificial intelligence, and economic crime at the same time. What makes this outlook different from previous years is not just the identification of new threats, but the admission that existing security models are no longer sufficient. The report identifies

Organizations searching for GDPR consulting services in the Netherlands are rarely starting from zero. Most have already tried to handle compliance internally, followed generic guidance, or relied on templates only to realize that GDPR compliance is more complex, more operational, and more country-specific than expected. As GDPR enforcement trends continue to show increased scrutiny across Europe, businesses are turning to professional support not because they lack effort, but because GDPR comp

GDPR compliance in the Netherlands requires more than simply following EU-wide rules. While the General Data Protection Regulation applies across Europe, Dutch organizations must also comply with national implementation requirements that affect how the law works in practice. With enforcement increasing and regulatory scrutiny growing, understanding how to comply with GDPR in the Netherlands is essential to reduce legal and operational risk. Recent GDPR enforcement trends show that regulators ar

increasingly important as enforcement across Europe continues to intensify. Recent GDPR enforcement trends show that regulators are paying closer attention to how national implementation laws are applied in practice, especially in countries like the Netherlands where additional rules supplement EU-wide obligations. For organizations operating in or targeting the Dutch market, relying on GDPR knowledge alone is no longer enough. Effective compliance now requires a clear understanding of how the
