Since the late 1990s, millions have relied on the Internet for searching, communicating, shopping, and working, though 2.6 billion people (about 31% of the global population) still lack Internet access. Over the years, use of the Internet has evolved from email and static sites to social media, streaming, e-commerce, cloud tools, and more recently AI chatbots, reflecting its constant adaptation to users' needs.

Companies may scale their cloud resources in pursuit of product, cost, or process innovation. However, this does not come without a cost of its own. The resulting infrastructure complexity, created from a growing sprawl of access silos, can introduce friction into engineer and security workflows.

Git Large File Storage (Git LFS) is an open-source Git extension that handles versioning for large files. It optimizes git repositories by storing data separately from the repository’s core structure, making it much easier for developers to manage binary assets. However, such an efficiency requires proper security and configuration to function optimally. Utilizing best practices, like access control, encrypted connections, and regular repository maintenance, firmly secures the Git LFS performance.

IDC has positioned Trustwave as a Major Player in the just released IDC MarketScape Worldwide Cloud Security Services in the AI Era 2024–2025 Vendor Assessment (IDC, November 2024) for its comprehensive set of offensive and defensive cloud security services. IDC said organizations should consider Trustwave when “Enterprises with varying levels of security maturity that require customized hybrid approach and depth of offensive and defensive security capabilities should consider Trustwave.

Is your system being used for crypto mining without your consent? This might sound unlikely to you, but it could be possible, and you won’t even know about it. Cryptojackers can find your unprotected or exposed servers to put malicious code or malware and use it for mining cryptocurrencies.

As organizations accelerate their innovation in the cloud and their adoption of AI, securing AI workloads and identities has become critical. Misconfigurations, vulnerabilities and identity-based threats expose high-value assets to potential manipulation and exploitation. For AWS customers, advancing cloud security means establishing resilient guardrails that protect innovation without compromising speed.

As organizations scale their operations on Amazon Web Services (AWS), they must secure their identities and ensure all users have the correct permissions. AWS IAM Identity Center is built to simplify access management across multiple AWS accounts — a critical tool for rapidly growing AWS environments. This hub for identity data and processes demands strong protection against the identity-focused threats growing popular among today’s adversaries.
