Open source security scanners generate overwhelming volumes of potential security issues that need to be manually investigated to determine their true risk. Open source dependencies introduce a constant stream of CVEs, but not every vulnerability is actually exploitable. Without runtime context, teams waste time chasing issues that pose little to no real risk—slowing down development and diverting focus from true risks.

As organizations scale, the real challenge CTOs face isn’t just securing more code—it’s securing interconnected ecosystems that span multi-cloud environments, microservices, and third-party dependencies. Traditional DevSecOps tools, while competent in their silos, struggle to provide a unified security posture that addresses this interwoven complexity.

Healthcare breaches don’t just steal data; they erode trust, disrupt care, and cost millions. The 2015 Anthem data breach compromised 78.8 million records. Since then, attacks have only grown in frequency and sophistication, pushing the average healthcare breach cost to.1 million in 2022 (IBM’s Cost of a Data Breach). For years, healthcare security has focused on perimeter defenses, yet breaches keep escalating.

PCI DSS for e-commerce is essential for SAQ A-EP merchants who manage complex payment environments, including custom payment pages, interactive checkout flows, and third-party payment integrations. These merchants—such as SaaS platforms, online retailers, travel booking sites, and digital service providers—must comply with stringent security requirements to protect sensitive payment data.

The Zero Trust Security Framework is a fundamental approach to digital security. It assumes that every user and device is untrusted, requiring continuous authentication. This model helps to protect against the growing number of cyber threats. In this article, we discuss its principles, benefits, and real-world applications.

One of the largest data breaches of 2024 didn’t require advanced tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), or an escalating chain of successful attacks. It simply required purchasing credentials on the dark web and using them to log in and steal data, once again highlighting the vital need for robust, proactive protection against the growing surge of identity-based attacks.

In cybersecurity, the ability to gather, analyze, and act on data determines how well an organization can anticipate threats, detect vulnerabilities, and respond to attacks. But not all intelligence is created equal. Knowing what data to collect, where to find it, and how to interpret it is what separates reactive security teams from proactive ones.

When it comes to protecting your Proxmox virtualized environments, selecting the right backup solution is crucial for ensuring data integrity, minimizing downtime, and optimizing recovery efforts. BDRSuite’s Proxmox Backup and Proxmox Backup Server (PBS) both offer reliable Proxmox backup solutions, but each has its unique features and advantages tailored to different needs.

Technology is rapidly redefining how we live and work. As CIO at CyberArk, I often get asked about the themes and realities shaping today’s tech agenda. Some of them—I’m looking at you, AI—are shiny and hyped, while others are familiar and fundamental yet equally important. Here’s a look at five on the top of my list.

2024 saw data-leak sites (DLSs) for 72 extortion groups materialise. As of February 2025, Cyjax has identified DLSs for five new groups, as noted in recent blogs on extortion groups Kraken, Morpheus, GD LockerSec, and Babuk2. The fifth one to emerge goes by the name Linkc. Read on to find out what Cyjax knows so far about this new entrant into the data leak extortion scene.
