How we standardized error handling at Vanta

‍ I love working in monolithic repositories. It fosters collaboration, code reuse, and knowledge sharing—some of my favorite aspects of engineering culture here. ‍ However, without guardrails, complexity can grow unchecked, making it harder to reason about the system as a whole. In early 2024, it was clear that our error handling strategies had fallen victim to this, and it was impacting the quality of our product.

Cross-Border Data Compliance: Navigating Public Security Regulations in a Connected World

It is a significant benefit that the world is connected the way it is, with the potential for even greater interconnectivity. However, this has come at huge costs, too, considering the rise in the direct involvement of state actors engaged in cyber warfare. Against this background, nations have a more acute awareness of digital vulnerabilities, which has radiated into regulatory frameworks concerning cross-border data compliance.

Credit Card Cloning: What Is It , How It Works, and How to Protect Yourself

Discover a charge on your credit card that you don’t recognize. It could be from a card cloning event. Card cloning predominantly affects credit cards, but this phenomenon may also impact some payment platform cards (like those from PayPal or Zelle). In short, card cloning occurs when the card’s magnetic strip or chip is used in unauthorized transactions. Credit card cloning is a form of fraud, but it differs from others in its more nuanced elements.

CrowdStrike Falcon Exposure Management Expands Security to Unmanaged Network Assets with Network Vulnerability Assessment

As organizations strengthen endpoint and cloud security, attackers are shifting their focus to often-overlooked network infrastructure like routers, switches, and firewalls. Legacy vulnerability management (VM) solutions struggle to keep pace, relying on slow, periodic scans that fail to provide real-time visibility into emerging threats.

The Future of Agentic AI

Last April, Microsoft Security Copilot taxied down the runway and took flight to help passengers onboard to reach new destinations in cyber defense. BlueVoyant, as a Microsoft Security Copilot pre-launch design advisory council member, was a trusty flight attendant that helped Security Copilot safely take off. Today, as Security Copilot has reached its cruising altitude, Microsoft announced Security Copilot agents that help its passengers to further optimize Microsoft Security tools usage.
