You might be feeling frustrated by the endless struggle of getting Sigma detection rules to work seamlessly in your open-source SIEM stack. It probably feels like every new rule demands manual conversions, special configs, and a ton of guesswork. It can be exhausting--and I’ve definitely been there. In this walkthrough I introduce how we can incorporate Velociraptor DFIR to solve our Sigma challenge. I share how I set up automated scans, tackled noisy detections, and fed alerts into my incident-response workflow (CoPilot). https://lnkd.in/gX5-X_mN

Stop whining about how much CMMC costs; It pales in comparison to the costs of not adequately defending your networks, and not just for you but all the taxpayers funding it. CMMC is about compliance and real security. While nation-state espionage represents a significant threat to the Defense Industrial Base, cybercrime presents the most immediate and operationally disruptive risk to your organization's daily operations and long-term viability. Cybercrimes occur every 39 seconds—translating to 2,244 incidents per minute and 3.2 million attacks daily. In 2022, 49% of US internet users experienced cybercrime. Global cybercrime damages are projected to reach $10.5 trillion annually by 2025, up from $3 trillion in 2015—making cybercrime the world's third-largest economy, trailing only the United States and China. Data theft for extortion has become nearly ubiquitous in modern cybercrime operations. Any Department of Defense data you have failed to properly identify, classify, and protect walks right out the door with along with all your other data. Whether the threat actor is China, Russia, or a financially motivated cybercriminal group, the result is the same: you have lost control of data critical to national security; and you will have to report it to the DoD along with your other stakeholders. Additionally, inaccurate Self-Assessment reporting to the DoD carries serious consequences and it is time we started treating it as such. When you sign a DFARS clause, you are making a commitment to the government and fellow taxpayers that you will maintain adequate cybersecurity controls. Achieving CMMC Compliance is not just a regulatory requirement but critical to safeguarding national security data. Knowingly or unknowingly providing false information about your cybersecurity posture can be considered breach of contract and potentially a charge under the False Claims Act. One of the most pressing challenges facing defense contractors is identifying and securing Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) within their environments. Many organizations struggle with culling through millions of files to locate and properly protect all CUI they have been entrusted to safeguard. The first question is whether you have CUI in your environment, the second question is whether you know where it is and how to protect it before it's too late. P.S. If you are not completely confident on where you really are in compliance and actual security, we are happy to help with any or all of it. #capeendeavors #teramis #cmmc #cybersecurity #cyberthreats
