The Trilogy of Cryptographic Security: TLS, Certificates, and Ciphers
Cryptographic security underpins modern digital communication, protecting sensitive data during transmission and ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and authenticity of interactions. The importance of cryptographic protocols like TLS (Transport Layer Security) is underscored by their widespread adoption across industries, from financial services and healthcare to e-commerce and government systems. According to ENISA (2023), over 95% of […]
A Dummies Guide: The Cybersecurity Trilogy; TLS, Certificates, and Ciphers
Imagine a three-legged stool. Each leg represents one critical part of securing online communication: 1- TLS (Transport Layer Security): The shield that encrypts data during transmission. 2- Certificates: The passports proving the identity of websites and systems. 3- Ciphers: The locks that scramble data into unreadable formats. If one leg of the stool is weak […]
Cryptographic Discovery –How do we break away from the pack?
Unlike traditional discovery tools that rely on active polling, agent-based scanning, or scheduled probes, Venari passively monitors all TLS traffic at the network layer—seeing every cryptographic exchange across all endpoints and servers, without requiring agents, scans, or predefined targets.
A CxO’s guide to Proving Compliance & Taking Reasonable Steps to Protect Data
As a CxO team, you are not only responsible for protecting sensitive data but also for proving to regulators, customers, and stakeholders that your organisation is taking reasonable steps to do so. In today’s regulatory and business environment, it’s no longer enough to have systems in place—you need evidence that […]
Post-Quantum Cryptography: A Revolution or Just the Next Upgrade?
The era of quantum computing is no longer a distant theory—it’s an imminent reality. With the sheer power to break today’s encryption methods, quantum computers pose an existential threat to data security. But does Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) require a complete overhaul, or is it simply the next step in cybersecurity’s evolution? This white paper explores […]
Achieving CMMC 2.0 Compliance Through Continuous TLS/SSL Monitoring
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) framework establishes a standardized set of cybersecurity requirements for defense contractors and subcontractors. To achieve CMMC compliance, organizations must demonstrate their ability to protect sensitive data and mitigate cybersecurity risks. One critical aspect of CMMC compliance is the proper use of encryption to safeguard sensitiveinformation. This whitepaper explores the […]
Crypto Compliance in the Age of Encrypted Traffic
The rapid growth of the cryptocurrency industry has brought with it a complex regulatory landscape. Financial regulators worldwide are grappling with how to balance innovation with consumer protection and market integrity. This whitepaper explores the key regulations governing cryptocurrencies, particularly DORA, PCI DSS, and MICA, and the challenges they pose in the context of encrypted […]
Cryptographic Discovery Assessment
Venari Security’s External Cryptographic Discovery Assessment (ECDA) provides organisations with a wide range of benefits, extending beyond technical security. This assessment can result in financial savings, increased trust, competitive advantages, and a more resilient business model. By addressing vulnerabilities related to TLS and SSL external domain connections, organisations can […]
M&A
In the evolving landscape of cyber risk, traditional methods for assessing the cyber maturity of organisations involved in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are proving insufficient. Venari Security introduces a solution designed to address these limitations by providing instant visibility into active cyber campaigns throughout the M&A process. This approach offers real-time insights into the threat […]
Cyber Controls Verification
Traditional methods of threat intelligence and vulnerability assessment often fall short of addressing the complexities of today’s cyber landscape. Venari Security introduces a solution designed for systems integrators and consulting partners to enhance cyber threat assessments by providing real-time visibility into active threats and breaches. Unlike conventional approaches, Venari Security ensures no active threats are […]
