Cybersecurity is constantly evolving, with new threats, cutting-edge technologies, and major company announcements emerging daily. Keeping up with these developments is essential to protect your organization and its clients from potential risks. Here’s a look at some key business developments that are steering the future of cybersecurity.
Solutions
LOKKER has added a new consent management solution to its Privacy Edge Platform. LOKKER, which specializes in online data privacy and compliance solutions, claims its platform can work as a standalone product or alongside a company’s existing CMP to proactively detect and block pixels, tags and trackers and the cookies they set that can serve in a “Reject All” state. In a recent quote, Ian Cohen, CEO of LOKKER, said, “Our goal has always been to stop unauthorized data collection in real-time, and give companies visibility and a last line of defense against what data leaves the site. Adding a consent management banner was built in direct response to the shortcomings and issues businesses are experiencing with existing consent tools on the market. We wanted to help address those and ensure organizations are compliant with new and evolving data privacy laws. This new functionality addresses those concerns.”
Tufin has officially released Tufin Orchestration Suite (TOS) R24-2, which helps ensure that organizations’ network operations are efficient, secure, and audit-ready by automating complex tasks, enhancing security visibility, and driving compliance. Tufin, which focuses on network and cloud security policy automation, claims R24-2 can integrate seamlessly with existing network environments, providing a unified platform for managing network security across on-premise and cloud infrastructures. In a recent quote, Shay Dayan, Senior Vice President of Products and Engineering at Tufin, said, “Today’s network and security professionals need to be able to do more with less, which is why we designed TOS R24-2 to make complex network security tasks even easier. With our latest release, teams gain advanced automation capabilities for the leading cloud vendors, enhanced compliance capabilities, and improved network change management processes for all environments.”
