During the last 20 years many areas of technology development seemed to speed up dramatically. Identity management as part of cybersecurity, has undergone an incredible transformation, at a rate which no one could have predicted. But few areas moved as fast as quantum computing is developing today. The speed of progress is impressive with advances in capability, which once seemed near impossible, being achieved in relatively short time frames.

Rewind a couple of years and enterprises were heavily focused on acquiring new tech to drive forward their digitisation plans. Then, when the pandemic struck, organisations were forced to fix any technology gaps in their environment and digitise services to hastily plug these gaps. Cybercriminals - aware of the opportunity that the new remote landscape offered - were also taking advantage, quickly exploiting vulnerabilities across the digital ecosystem to infiltrate and breach organisations.

OWASP ASVS is a great project to provide a framework of security controls for design and define the basis of secure development. But the problem is when you decide to use these checks in your organization, you end up with a 71-page pdf file or an OWASP ASVS checklist (excel sheet). It is incredibly hard for organizations to adapt and spread the word within the company. This is why we decided to implement a feature that gets all the security testing tools results (by CWE) and maps them into OWASP ASVS automatically so you can use it in every aspect of your application security program.

Cloud computing is nothing new in 2023, but is certainly still a growth piece of technology infrastructure, and one upon which many organisations work to build their IT infrastructure, whether across one cloud provider such as the market leaders AWS, or, increasingly, around a multi-cloud strategy across several providers, and some public cloud offerings.

Over the past decade, the working world has undergone a dramatic transformation. Spending each day of the week in an office is no more for most, while many have the flexibility to work from any location using a device and network that the organisation often has no control over. Productivity levels have certainly increased because of the flexible working environment, but it has opened the door to new challenges, mainly protecting the organisation's critical assets.

Has the pandemic come to an end? Are we back to a full-fledged, in-office work style? The answer is absolutely not. What we proposed as the "new normal" (working from home) back in 2020 is now just normal in 2023. Gartner research predicted that "almost 50% of employees will will continue to work remotely post-pandemic," which is the reality now! With this shifting trend towards a flexible work culture, it's essential for front line IT workers, aka sysadmins, to stay equipped with a supercharged remote troubleshooting toolkit to rescue endpoints in trouble.

A Security Operations Center (SOC) is a centralized unit responsible for monitoring, detecting, analyzing, and responding to security incidents within an organization's IT infrastructure. The primary objective of a SOC is to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of an organization's critical data.

In today's interconnected and technology-driven world, cyber threats have become a significant concern for businesses. With the rise of advanced cyber attacks, data breaches, and cybercriminals, it has become imperative for organizations to implement strong security measures to protect their applications and data. Automated testing tools are the number one go-to solution for security teams trying to scale the discovery of vulnerabilities in their applications. However, as modern software development practices evolve, new attack surfaces emerge and so do new security testing tools that cover different attack surfaces.
