These requirements target the browser layer — where scripts execute on the end user’s side, not in your cloud or backend infrastructure.

The evolution and growing impact of cyberthreats are increasingly impacting the economic and social fabric. From attacks on business infrastructures to political disinformation campaigns and ransomware targeting critical environments such as hospitals or transportation networks, the impact is no longer just technical; it’s systemic.

Researchers at Netcraft warn that AI-generated search engine summaries are suggesting phishing sites when users ask them to find legitimate login pages. The researchers tested popular AI models, asking them for the login pages of fifty major brands, and found that the models provided the wrong sites 34% of the time. "In many cases, users see AI-generated content before (or instead of) traditional search results—and often without even needing to log in," the researchers explain.

Modern websites have become increasingly reliant on third-party applications and open source tools to deliver functionality and enhance the user experience. However, this reliance introduces both security and privacy risks, as external code can act as a vector for sophisticated attacks, such as Magecart and web skimming. Without visibility into these apps and tools, organizations are left vulnerable to undetected threats, unauthorized data access, and regulatory violations.

A recent survey and report cosponsored by Tanium and conducted by the Enterprise Strategy Group, now part of Omdia, uncovered data that some may find surprising—perhaps even alarming.

In 2010, the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD) developed a set of prioritised threat mitigation strategies to provide cybersecurity guidance to government agencies and organisations. Over time, eight of those strategies proved to be the most effective and were formalised into the Essential Eight (E8) framework, officially published in 2017.

Audits are hard enough. Chasing down duplicate evidence across systems shouldn’t be part of the process. We’re excited to announce we’ve joined Fieldguide’s open ecosystem, the industry-leading AI-powered platform built for top global CPA firms and enterprise-focused audit providers. ‍ This integration is designed to reduce friction, eliminate redundant work, and help both companies and auditors complete reviews more efficiently with streamlined communications.

Application recovery directly impacts business success when running cloud-native environments with Kubernetes, OpenStack, and OpenShift platforms. A well-designed application recovery plan helps organizations prevent extended outages, protect critical data, and maintain operational stability.

Security teams don’t need another dashboard screaming about low-priority bugs. They need to know what’s important, what’s already fixed, and what’s still a ticking time bomb. That’s where we’re headed at Astra. This summer, we’ve made several updates that do exactly that. Delta scans that stop pointing at the same issues. MFA protection where it actually matters. Cloud rescans that are faster and smarter.

The rise of AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Midjourney, and Copilot is reshaping workplaces, with employees adopting these tools to boost productivity and innovation. However, this rapid adoption often occurs without IT oversight, creating Shadow AI - a growing challenge for businesses.
