New data shows that phishing mobile devices as an attack vector is growing in popularity – mostly because it’s increasingly working... in exponential terms.

The other week, BitSight published research identifying thousands of organizations using internet-facing and exposed webcams with many video and audio feeds susceptible to spying. The potential consequences are serious – an attacker could potentially view private activities and eavesdrop on sensitive conversations, presenting a variety of privacy and security concerns. Below are some of the screenshots BitSight captured from exposed devices (blurred for privacy).
2023 finds us in a sustained cybersecurity hiring crisis. With 3.4 million too few experts to meet global demand, it seems the widespread investments in university programs, increased certification access, and upskilling for existing IT professionals isn’t enough to bridge the gap.
Mobile apps have made our lives a lot easier. From ordering food, watching movies, booking a cab, and sending money, one can do everything via mobile apps. However, while mobile apps are a great utility, they've become an easy target for scammers, hackers, and cyber attackers, especially in countries like the UK.

SharePoint is a user-friendly intranet portal and provides a consolidated center for document sharing, tracking, and overall project management.
Rule tuning is one of the most important steps during the definition of the security posture. With the detection rules, it’s impossible to use a “one fits all” approach: every customer has a unique environment, with its peculiarities and business needs. So, when a new rule is released it’s crucial to understand the security use case behind the detection and reduce the false positives (FP) as much as possible. The Threat Research Team constantly checks if noise occurs.
Penetration Testing (also known as pentesting or ethical hacking) is a simulation of an attack on a computer system, network, or web application to identify potential security vulnerabilities and gauge the effectiveness of existing security measures. These are typically performed by cybersecurity professionals with specialised knowledge and experience in identifying and exploiting system vulnerabilities.
