Quantum computing is coming and it has the potential to be both exciting and terrifying… On today’s episode of Trust Issues, host David Puner speaks with cryptographer Dr. Erez Waisbard, CyberArk’s Technology and Research Lead, about quantum computing innovation and its cybersecurity implications – from data encryption to surveillance and privacy. Dr.
The world of cybersecurity is a never-ending battle, with malicious actors constantly devising new ways to exploit vulnerabilities and infiltrate networks. One such threat, causing headaches for security teams for over a decade, is the Qakbot Trojan, also known as Qbot.

Cloudflare has achieved a new EU Cloud Code of Conduct privacy validation, demonstrating GDPR compliance to strengthen trust in cloud services.
A Domain Name System (DNS) is a protocol that translates human-readable domain names/URLs—like favoritewebsite.com—into IP addresses that computers can read—like 135.24.56.98.

Last month, Lead Partner Solutions Architect, David Schott, presented a demo on how Snyk works alongside Amazon Web Services (AWS) to identify vulnerabilities at every level of development and infrastructure. David covered why agile development in the cloud requires a different security approach than simply using the IT security methods of the past. Then, he showed a real-time example of how Snyk’s AWS cloud security tools can find and mitigate common vulnerabilities.

The encoding scheme you choose as a developer can have far-reaching consequences for your application’s functionality, security, and performance–in other words, it could be the difference between a seamless user experience and a catastrophic data failure. ASCII is a popular choice, with over 95% of all websites using it, and Unicode is quickly gaining ground for many applications on over 60% of websites.
