The U.S. Department of the Treasury suffered a major security incident when a Chinese threat actor compromised its third-party cybersecurity service BeyondTrust. The attackers obtained an API key that allowed them to bypass security measures and access unclassified documents.

In this blog post, we will explore the intricate world of detection engineering. We’ll start by examining the inputs and outputs of detection engineering, and then we’ll illustrate the detection engineering lifecycle.

Configuration management tools like Ansible, Chef, and Puppet offer various methods for handling secrets, each with inherent trade-offs. The article explores these approaches alongside modern OIDC-based solutions that enable short-lived authentication tokens for automated processes.

The future of eliminating secrets sprawl means getting a handle on the lifecycles and interdependencies of the non-human identities that rely on secrets. Learn how to implement these NHI security measures at scale.

Secrets with excessive permissions are a goldmine for attackers. GitGuardian Secrets Analyzer helps security teams identify overprivileged secrets, analyze permissions, and shrink the attack surface.

At BSides Austin 2024, experts shared solutions for AI safety, cloud logging, systemic security planning, and effective executive collaboration strategies.

On December 4, 2024, the Ultralytics Python module was backdoored to deploy a cryptominer. Using GitGuardian’s data, we reconstructed deleted commits, connecting the dots with the initial analysis. This investigation highlights the value of GitGuardian’s data in understanding supply chain attacks.
