This past month, we released our new suite of tools leveraging the latest in AI and LLMs, Vanta AI, role-based access control (RBAC), 34 new integrations (bringing the total number of integrations shipped in 2023 to over 200!) and more:
Today we announced Vanta AI, our suite of AI-powered tools to accelerate and simplify security and compliance workflows. With Vanta AI, tasks that were previously impossible to automate can now be performed reliably in minutes, enabling security and compliance teams to prove trust and manage risk more efficiently and confidently than ever before. From the start, Vanta has been on a mission to secure the internet and protect consumer data.
Today we’re thrilled to announce the launch of Vanta AI, a new suite of tools that brings the power of AI and LLMs to the Vanta platform to help you accelerate compliance, efficiently assess vendor risk, and automate security questionnaires. AI is transforming the way work gets done, especially when it comes to reducing repetitive tasks.
Most enterprises' critical infrastructure and operational pipelines rely on an intricate web of software, online services, and cloud applications. This level of complexity makes supply chain risk management one of (if not the) biggest challenges for CISOs today. Today, malicious actors choose to exploit software supply chain vulnerabilities rather than just target end users. These SSC attacks have caused some of the most notable cybersecurity incidents and data breaches in recent years.
Starting on Aug 25, 2023, we started to notice some unusually big HTTP attacks hitting many of our customers. These attacks were detected and mitigated by our automated DDoS system. It was not long however, before they started to reach record breaking sizes — and eventually peaked just above 201 million requests per second. This was nearly 3x bigger than our previous biggest attack on record.
Earlier today, Cloudflare, along with Google and Amazon AWS, disclosed the existence of a novel zero-day vulnerability dubbed the “HTTP/2 Rapid Reset” attack. This attack exploits a weakness in the HTTP/2 protocol to generate enormous, hyper-volumetric Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
According to the recent The Cyber-Resilient CEO report released by IT services and consulting agency Accenture, a staggering 74% of CEOs have expressed concerns about their organizations' ability to protect their businesses from cyber attacks. This is despite the fact that 96% of CEOs acknowledge the importance of cybersecurity for the growth and stability of their organizations.
Modern cloud applications are made up of thousands of distributed services and resources that support an equally large volume of concurrent requests. This level of scale makes it more challenging for engineers to identify system failures before they lead to costly outages. System failures are often difficult to predict in cloud environments, and security threats add another layer of complexity.
The AEC industry is heavily reliant on accurate and reliable information. Architects, engineers, builders, and owners all require instant access to data and documentation throughout the lifetime of a project, from inception to post-occupancy. In a project with numerous stakeholders, ensuring timely access to necessary information is crucial for all involved parties.
