You can tell if your Facebook account has been hacked if you receive login attempt notifications, notice your account’s personal information has been changed, see an increase in suspicious messages or have trouble logging in to your account. Since Facebook accounts hold a large amount of private information, you need to recover your account quickly if it’s been hacked.

Tool sprawl is an expensive aspect of technical debt. IDC recently found that 43% of organizations doing business in the Americas have 500 or more software applications in their portfolios today (Application Services — Worldwide Regions, 2023, IDC #US50490416, April 2023). In the area of monitoring and observability tools alone, 50% of companies reported having between 11 and 40 tools.

Our teams are always hard at work improving the TrustCloud platform. Here are this month’s biggest updates. Introducing our ServiceNow integration! This is a bidirectional integration with ServiceNow to pull ticket details into TrustCloud. Teams can create new ServiceNow tasks in TrustCloud and attach ServiceNow links as evidence to your tests. The integration also supports automatic task creation from TrustCloud. Just go to Admin -> Connected Apps, where you can automate task creation.

In today’s digital landscape, ensuring the security of both web applications and websites is paramount. As cyber threats become more sophisticated, organisations must employ robust security measures to protect their assets. Penetration Testing is a critical strategy used to identify vulnerabilities and strengthen defences. However, the approach to Penetration Testing can vary significantly between web applications and websites.

When an incident occurs — be it ransomware, a vulnerability exploit, or another kind of sophisticated attack — robust incident response can be the difference between quick remediation or costly, extended down time.

In this age of digital supremacy, keeping our data safe and respecting privacy are super important. As more and more people and businesses use online platforms, it’s crucial to understand what types of data need that extra layer of protection, especially when it comes to PII vs PHI vs PCI. Understanding the distinctions between PII (Personally Identifiable Information), PHI (Protected Health Information), and PCI (Payment Card Information) is crucial.

Striking the right balance between innovation using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Large Language Models (LLMs) and data protection is essential. In this blog, we’ll explore critical strategies for ensuring AI and LLM data security, highlighting some trade-offs.

As cyber threats continue to grow more sophisticated, the demand for dynamic, scalable security solutions has led to the increasing adoption of Security Operations Center as a Service (SOC as a Service, or SOCaaS). The SOC as a Service model offers a significantly more cost-effective alternative for organizations without the resources to establish full-scale, in-house security operations centers (SOCs).

DevOps practices have significantly transformed the software industry, leading to faster release cycles and more streamlined workflows. The enduring presence of the DevOps model is undeniable, and its influence on modern development methodologies is profound. However, this accelerated pace introduces challenges, particularly regarding DevOps security.
