One of the most pervasive and unavoidable threats on the internet, domain impersonation can be used by bad actors as the basis for a wide range of attacks. The various ways in which cybercriminals make use of lookalike domains often fluctuate, and the first half of 2023 has exemplified this fact. Staying on top of security and not falling victim to these attacks requires knowing what the dangers are and keeping track of the threats that are likely to spring up.

Electric grids are part of every nation’s critical infrastructure. Every societal activity and business depends on reliable and safe electricity distribution. The US electric grid is a huge network of powerlines, distribution hubs, and renewable and non-renewable energy generators that is increasingly exposed to cyber-physical risks due to the accelerated reliance on cyber-enabled systems and IoT-connected devices, such as smart meters.

One of the primary reasons for email archiving is legal compliance. Many industries and organizations are subject to various regulations and laws that require them to retain certain types of electronic communication, including emails.

In today’s rapidly evolving cyber threat landscape, organizations, particularly those within the public sector and defense industries, face unprecedented challenges in securing sensitive data and ensuring regulatory compliance. The need for a comprehensive, cloud-based productivity and collaboration suite that empowers teams and meets stringent security and compliance requirements has never been greater.

Defined by relentless cyber threats and evolving challenges, the role of cybersecurity has never been more crucial. As organizations across the globe struggle with the ever-expanding threat landscape, the adoption of cybersecurity automation has emerged as a promising solution. This third annual survey conducted by ThreatQuotient, explores cybersecurity automation adoption and provides insights gathered from 750 senior cybersecurity professionals from the UK, US, and Australia.

Designing and maintaining secure infrastructure configurations from code to cloud is a complex process involving multiple technical teams and security stakeholders. The first challenge is writing secure infrastructure configurations pre-deployment.

The use of artificial intelligence in every area of life — from writing papers to maintaining critical infrastructure to manufacturing goods — is a controversial topic. Some are excited about the possibilities that come with AI/ML tech, while others are fearful and reticent. These differing opinions raise a fundamental question: will AI turn our modern-day society into a utopia or a dystopia?

With the escalating frequency and complexity of cyberattacks, businesses are constantly under threat. Security operations have become an indispensable aspect of organizational survival and success.
