KASEYA CRASH


 I can't help but draw a parallel between KASEYA and SOLARWINDS.

Both companies offer I would say "hyper-integrated" solutions, the "all in one", management and security, easy to use and both put forward the IT security not only of their solution but especially of the whole IT system of the users. 

And both seem to either be adept at "do as I say, not as I do" unless they are deceiving users about the quality and effectiveness of their solutions.

On closer inspection, both offer full visibility that should allow for immediate reaction and data protection.

It is clear that both companies were unable to detect the early stages of the attacks, despite the vaunted performance of their security solutions.

The fault of these two companies is that they wanted to "hyper-integrate" everything, the IT protection solution with the IT management solution.

Data management and IT security cannot be integrated in one product.

Of course, when creating a program, one must take care of the security in its design but the control of this security can never be done by the creator or manager of this program.

KASEYA and SOLARWINDS wanted to integrate the totality of internet, management and protection solutions and when they integrated these solutions for their clients they did not apply their security solutions within their company.

PT SYDECO has created an "ALL-IN-ONE" IT security solution but it only focuses on data, program and server security.

If users of KASEYA and SOLARWINDS products had used our solutions, they would have been protected and would have experienced at most a few seconds of downtime.

If KASEYA and SOLARWINDS had used our solutions, they would never have had this problem. Indeed, our solution doesn't just observe and use antiviruses that are always outdated, but focuses on what needs to be protected.

By creating a shelter around the programs, Sydeco’s solution effectively protects the programs, regardless of the nature of the attack or of the virus used.

A lesson in cyber safety

In an article published on 19 June 2023 in globalsecuritymag.fr/, Benoit Grunemwald, cybersecurity expert at ESET France, recounts the cyberattack suffered by REDDIT, an American social news aggregation, content rating, and discussion website, in February of the same year, and draws some lessons from it. This article follows the hackers' attempts, last repeated on 16 June, to obtain a ransom of 4.5 million dollars in order to delete the 80 GB of data stolen from the company, to which the company did not respond. The data was not encrypted, so the company did not lose it. However, the same cannot be said for its reputation.  Benoit Grunemwald explains that " It all started with a phishing email to harvest employee account data. All it takes is for a single employee to be trapped for cyber criminals to gain access to internal documents, software code, employee data , etc." He goes on to stress the " need to integrate in-depth security methods and resources, such as zer

BOT attacks: a growing threat on the Internet

Bot attacks , the malicious and damaging use of automated computer programs known as bots (or BOTS), have become a growing concern and a pervasive reality in the modern digital landscape. BOTS, or software robots, are automated programs originally designed to perform tasks on the Internet without human intervention. Unfortunately, hackers have also managed to turn them into a hacking technique, created with malicious intent, to manipulate, defraud or disrupt a site, application, API or users, potentially causing enormous damage to businesses and users, compromising the security of systems and data. To carry out their BOTS attacks, the majority of hackers use software called botkits, which are freely available online and sold on the Dark Web. Vendors of this type of software also offer paid services to carry out BOT attacks, including software to power DDoS attacks. BOT attacks include, but are not limited to,  Email Spam , which is used to send spam emails containing malicious software
