In today’s complex IT ecosystems, extending equal protection across the entire network is simply not feasible. Instead, organizations need to determine which systems are inherently most critical and prioritize maintaining their operational integrity through effective IT monitoring: tracking performance and activity across servers, applications and other technology components.

There are more SaaS applications in use by businesses than ever before—and the adoption rate is only going to continue to increase. According to Netskope’s annual Cloud & Threat Report, SaaS adoption continued to rise in enterprise environments throughout 2023, with users constantly accessing new, mostly unmanaged, apps and increasing their use of existing apps.

Who doesn’t like a good bedtime story from Grandma? In today’s landscape, more and more organizations are turning to intelligent chatbots or large language models (LLMs) to boost service quality and client support. This shift is receiving a lot of positive attention, offering a welcome change given the common frustrations with bureaucratic delays and the lackluster performance of traditional automated chatbot systems.

If you've ever worked in security or another technical field, you've probably been burned many times by tools that overpromised and underdelivered. I still have scar tissue from my time leading security teams at eBay and DocuSign - we saw so many tools that demoed extremely well but turned out to be undeployable.

The Domain Name System (DNS) translates domain names (e.g., datadoghq.com) into IP addresses via a process called DNS resolution. This translation facilitates all kinds of network communication, from enabling web browsers to connect to a desired page without requiring users to remember IP addresses, to internal communication across private infrastructure, such as Kubernetes environments.

Vendor risk scoring is a critical component within vendor risk management (VRM) or third-party risk management (TPRM) programs and an organization’s overall risk management strategy. Risk scoring is an integral tool in the risk assessment process, helping organizations identify, evaluate, and mitigate potential risks associated with third-party vendors or service providers.

Firewall technology has mirrored the complexities in network security, evolving significantly over time. Originally serving as basic traffic regulators based on IP addresses, firewalls advanced to stateful inspection models, offering a more nuanced approach to network security. This evolution continued with the emergence of Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs), which brought even greater depth through data analysis and application-level inspection.

During a recent client investigation, Trustwave SpiderLabs found a malicious version of the Advanced IP Scanner installer, which contained a backdoored DLL module. Our client had been searching for the Advanced IP Scanner tool online and inadvertently downloaded the compromised installer from a typo-squatted domain that appeared in their search results. Figure 1. Search results for Advanced IP Scanner may direct users to a malicious domain.
