Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, the line between the defenders and attackers often blurs, with skills transferable across both arenas. It’s a narrative not unfamiliar to many in the cybersecurity community: the journey from black hat to white hat, from outlaw to protector. In the 15th episode of Cato Networks’ Cyber Security Master Class, hosted by Etay Maor, Senior Director of Security Strategy, we had the privilege of witnessing such a transformative story unfold.

Google Cloud releases its Q3 Threat Horizons report, BlueNoroff hacks macOS machines with ObjCshellz malware, and a ChatGPT-powered infostealer targets cloud platforms.

SecurityScorecard’s recent report with the Cyentia Institute found that 98% or organizations have a relationship with at least one third party that has experienced a breach within the last two years. This indicates that nearly every organization is at least indirectly exposed to risk through circumstances outside its control. With that in mind, it’s important for organizations to know how breaches can happen, how to detect them, and how they can respond effectively. Let’s explore.

Software development is not slowing down and neither are the demands for new features. In order to keep up with the needs of the market and tight deadlines, software engineers have become adept at leveraging the massive ecosystem of 3rd party libraries available in source code management repositories such as GitHub. After all, why build something yourself and waste precious time when you can use what someone else has already created?.

In the rapidly growing world of the Internet of Things (IoT), IoT gateways have emerged as essential components that bridge the gap between IoT devices and the cloud. As the backbone of IoT networks, these gateways not only streamline communication and data processing but also ensure the security of connected devices.

A new era of innovation is upon us, revolutionizing the automotive industry with the power of the Internet of Things (IoT). This ground-breaking technology is transforming the way we manufacture, operate, and maintain our vehicles, leading to smarter, safer, and more efficient driving experiences. But what exactly does this mean for the future of transportation, and how can we harness the full potential of these emerging technologies?

Boards of directors need to maintain an appropriate level of cyber expertise, incidents must be reported within 72 hours after determination, and all ransom payments made must be reported within a day. Those are just some of the changes made by The New York State Department of Financial Services to its Cybersecurity Requirements for Financial Services (23 NYCRR 500), effective November 1, 2023.

Secure access control, part of the broader field of user management, is a key concept in the realm of information security, particularly in the business environment. It refers to the process of selectively restricting and allowing access to a place or resource. In the context of information technology, it is a vital element of data protection, dictating who or what can view or use specific resources in a computing environment.
