Host-based security remains a critical layer of cybersecurity even as organizations shift infrastructure and security operations to the cloud. Servers, workstations, virtual machines, cloud instances, container hosts, legacy systems, and OT endpoints still run applications, process data, and deliver the programs defenders need to protect. Host-based security monitoring provides visibility into what is running, what […]
File change monitoring can tell organizations much more than whether an important file was modified. Modern file integrity monitoring (FIM) can provide valuable event data about what changed, when and where it happened, and who or what was responsible. Combined with real-time monitoring and other security telemetry, this information can help security, IT, OT, and […]
The CMMC Phase 2 suspension gives defense contractors more time to prepare, not a reason to stop preparing. Here are some reminders and recommendations for the meantime. The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program was headed toward an important milestone on November 10, 2026. That was when Phase 2, also referred to as Phase I, […]
Artificial intelligence is changing more than the sophistication of cyber attacks—it is changing the speed of attacks. AI-speed vulnerability exploitation enables attackers to discover weaknesses, generate exploits, perform reconnaissance, and launch attacks in a fraction of the time previously required by human operators. As the defender’s response window shrinks, defense in depth cybersecurity becomes increasingly […]
For government contractors and MSPs that store, process, or transmit Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), NIST SP 800-171 Rev. 3, published on May 14, 2024, provides a modern framework for strengthening security while preparing them for evolving federal cybersecurity requirements, including those that may be reflected in future CMMC and FedRAMP updates. Atomicorp delivers the endpoint […]
Continuous compliance monitoring provides the ongoing visibility organizations need as AI-accelerated attacks shorten the time between vulnerability discovery and exploitation. Atomicorp’s Atomic OSSEC EDR delivers continuous compliance monitoring and benchmarking across IT and OT environments through agent-based or agentless deployment on modern, legacy, and unsupported operating systems. Built-in antivirus, endpoint firewall, file integrity monitoring, vulnerability […]
Unsupported software security—or a lack of it—has quietly become one of the greatest sources of cyber risk. While discussions often focus on legacy web applications, organizations rely on many kinds of software that can no longer be patched, upgraded, or supported. This includes not only internet-facing applications, but internal business systems, middleware, custom applications, industrial […]
Atomicorp has expanded coverage for legacy Unix system security by delivering both real-time file integrity monitoring (FIM) and CVE detection and correlation for AIX and Solaris platforms. These extra-edge capabilities deliver the visibility, monitoring, and compliance controls organizations need to secure business-critical systems beyond vendor support lifecycles, reduce risk, and avoid operational disruption. Request a […]
Need a network intrusion detection or network detection and response (NDR) system? Atomic OSSEC EDR secures many types of endpoints, including network components. Network endpoints are often “invisible infrastructure,” quietly handling critical communication and security functions while slipping past dashboards and monitoring tools. These trusted devices—routers, switches, firewalls, servers, and remote office equipment—are rarely interacted […]
