Why AI Security Tools Are Different and 9 Tools to Know in 2025

As companies embed AI models into their applications, they face risks that traditional security tools weren’t designed to catch, such as prompt injection, data leakage, model poisoning, and shadow AI. Addressing these threats requires a new class of security tools built specifically for AI specific risk.

Data Rejection and API Best Practice #cybersecurity

Mend.io, formerly known as Whitesource, has over a decade of experience helping global organizations build world-class AppSec programs that reduce risk and accelerate development -– using tools built into the technologies that software and security teams already love. Our automated technology protects organizations from supply chain and malicious package attacks, vulnerabilities in open source and custom code, and open-source license risks.

Why We Built CertKit

SSL Certificates have always been a pain in the butt. From the magical OpenSSL incantations to generate a CSR to the various formats that each webserver requires. Remembering what hardware needs which certificates. Managing scheduled renewals and runbooks for which file goes where. Screw anything up and your site is “Not Secure”. And now Apple wants us to do it every 47 days. Remember when we had HTTP-only websites? Or when certificates lasted three years? Then one?

FFIEC Sunsets The Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT)

The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) retired its Cybersecurity Assessment Tool (CAT) on August 31, 2025. This self-assessment resource, used by financial institutions to gauge cybersecurity risk and readiness, won’t be updated going forward. The FFIEC launched CAT in 2015 to help organizations measure their exposure to risk and assess their cyber preparedness.

Why Healthcare Needs DevOps Backup And DR Strategy

There is a critical speed-control paradox in the healthcare DevOps landscape: while DevOps best practices dramatically cut software delivery cycles, a lack of confidence in Disaster Recovery readiness, noted by Gartner, opens up room for fragile operations despite increased deployment speed. This gap demands a solution that adds reliability, such as comprehensive backup strategies, to ensure that faster development doesn’t compromise mission-critical systems ignited through DevOps platforms.

Multi-Tenant Systems: Sharing Vulnerabilities #appsec

Mend.io, formerly known as Whitesource, has over a decade of experience helping global organizations build world-class AppSec programs that reduce risk and accelerate development -– using tools built into the technologies that software and security teams already love.

Protecting Stateful Applications in Tanzu: Back Up Databases and PVCs the Right Way

If you’re running MYSQL or PostgreSQL in Tanzu, you may have wondered, are my backups really enough? With stateful apps becoming more common in Kubernetes environments, relying on traditional VM snapshots just does not work anymore. To truly protect your data, you need a Kubernetes -native approach that ensures consistency, fast recovery, and compliance with enterprise standards. In this guide, we’ll explore.
