According to a report from cyber security firm ProofPoint in collaboration with Cybersecurity at MIT Sloan, while 69% of board members report seeing eye-to-eye with their CISO, only 51% of CISOs say the same…

Since the premier of the wildly popular 1993 dinosaur cloning film Jurassic Park, the sciences featured in the film, genetic engineering and genomics, have advanced at breathtaking rates. When the film was released, the Human Genome Project was already working on sequencing the entire human genome for the first time. They completed the project in 2003 after 13 years and at a cost of $1 billion. Today, the human genome can be sequenced in less…

Postgres is one of the top relational, multi-model databases currently available. It’s designed to power database applications — which either serve important data directly to end users or through another application via APIs. Your typical website might fit that first example well, while a finance app (like PayPal) typically uses APIs to process GET or POST database requests.  Postgres’ object-relational structure and concurrency are advantages over alternatives like MySQL. And while no database technology is…

By Karen Krivaa, Chief Marketing Officer What is Perception Point? Perception Point was founded in 2015 by three innovators who served in elite cyber units in the Israeli Intelligence Corps. They initially developed and patented a technology focused on Zero-days and N-days; highly dangerous advanced persistent threats (APTs), which are extremely hard to detect and even harder to prevent. The HAP™ (hardware-assisted platform) was born. HAP is a dynamic scanning engine (next-gen sandbox) that detonates…
