RSA Roundup Day 3: VMware Carbon Black Cybercrime Outlook, Secureworks

  • Written by Edward Gately
  • February 26, 2020
Many organizations said IT and security have a negative relationship.

… look toward security solutions that are built in and not bolted on,” he said. “Now is the time for security to become intrinsic to how we build, deploy and maintain technology. IT and security professionals alike are optimistic that shared responsibility will become the norm and, perhaps, drive better alignment across many critical areas of the business.”

Also at RSA, Secureworks announced the launch of its new cloud configuration assessment. Based on VMware Secure State, Cloud Configuration Review addresses pervasive security challenges in public cloud adoption, including the exposure of critical assets due to the misconfiguration of security options and insider mistakes.

Travis Callahan, Secureworks’ senior director of product management, tells us there will be opportunities for partners in the near future when his company includes Cloud Configuration Review as part of its menu of proactive services available via its incident response retainer.

“There are two key competitive advantages that Cloud Configuration Review gives Secureworks and partners,” he said. “It offers real-time visibility to look not only into each individual cloud environment, like they would traditionally, but across their multicloud assets as to have an overview of misconfigurations. It provides the consultancy expertise and experience to make sure those misconfigurations are prioritized according to each customer’s security context, and also that the customer has an understanding on what are the priorities and what are his next steps in remediating those misconfigurations.”

VMware Secure State protects millions of cloud resources across AWS and Azure clouds, and enables security teams to get real-time visibility, improve speed and sophistication of vulnerability detection and correlate security risk across cloud infrastructure. Delivered as a service, it facilitates collaboration between security, operations and engineering teams for reducing the risk of security breaches.

“While we do already have a managed services relationship [with VMware], this is the first collaborative effort … to bring a product to market,” Callahan said. “We look forward to future opportunities from this extended security relationship between VMware and Secureworks.”

“The security industry is facing an acute shortage of talented engineers that can tackle security challenges associated with modern applications and cloud technologies,” said Jason Needham, VMware‘s senior director of cloud security. “As companies continue to increase their cloud footprint, skills shortages and lack of tooling create a profound security risk for companies delivering mission-critical applications in the cloud. This pairing of SecureWorks’ human intelligence with the VMware Secure State service can help address this gap for our mutual customers.”
