Today, we’re introducing our Risk Reduction Dashboard. This is a new way for security leaders to quantify their AppSec program’s impact, prioritize high-value fixes, and prove ROI with data-backed insights that go beyond raw vulnerability counts.

NEW YORK – November 18, 2025 – Apono, the cloud identity-security company pioneering Zero Standing Privilege (ZSP) access management, today announced a $34 million Series B led by U.S. Venture Partners (USVP), with participation from Swisscom Ventures, Vertex Ventures, 33N Ventures, and existing investors. The round brings Apono’s total funding to more than $54 million. Over the past year, Apono established product-market fit with a fourfold increase in client count.

Microsoft Foundry and Microsoft Copilot Studio have made it simple to build AI agents that automate workflows, access sensitive data, and integrate across critical business systems. However, agent democratization without control creates new security challenges. Further, as more agents are deployed across the organization, it means more agents that can access more data, invoke more tools (including MCP and A2A), and perform more actions. In other words, the potential attack surface is expanding.

Food delivery giant DoorDash recently suffered a cybersecurity incident that compromised sensitive customer and merchant information. Known for delivering everything from burritos to bubble tea across the United States and beyond, DoorDash confirmed that unauthorized actors accessed parts of its system in a recent data breach.

Crowdsourced penetration testing promises broad coverage, flexible resourcing, and cost efficiency by tapping into a distributed pool of security testers. Trustwave, A LevelBlue Company, realizes not every organization has the financial resources to partner with a security firm with dedicated penetration testing capabilities. At the same time, we want to make organizations aware of the many pitfalls in the crowdsourced pen-testing market and offer a few pointers on choosing the right vendors.

Your potential customers could be interacting with a malicious website that resembles your company's website. This dangerous cyber risk, known as a lookalike domain, is on the rise, with 80% of registered web domains in 2024 resembling 2000 global brands. This article explains what lookalike domains are, their impact on your brand, and why these attacks are increasing, providing real-time strategies to protect your business from domain spoofing.

What if your security operations team could reduce the time from risk discovery to resolution, from hours to seconds? 64% of analysts spend more than half of their time on manual tasks. It’s a sobering reality, considering how accelerated detection has become, and the contrast couldn’t be sharper. There are tools that detect zero-day vulnerabilities, map complex attacks, and identify vendor risk exposures, but remediation is still stuck in the age of manual mitigation.

The widening attack surface signals a critical risk, and your supply chain is the prime target. Attackers exploit vulnerabilities that were inserted long before the system was onboarded. This enables them to infiltrate data or disrupt systems at any stage, making supply chain attacks a direct and growing risk. A third-party breach compromises your vendor, but a supply chain attack targets you, which is why organizations need to make supply chain cybersecurity a business priority.

Egnyte is excited to announce a new collaboration with Microsoft, integrating Egnyte’s data governance and secure collaboration expertise with Microsoft Agent 365 for AI agents. This collaboration is designed to transform how organizations empower their employees, enhancing productivity and decision-making through secure, governed AI. The enterprise landscape is rapidly evolving.

Cybersecurity never stands still. Every login, session, and connection shifts the balance between freedom and control. Effective access management today isn’t about restriction—it’s about enabling trust at the speed of innovation. Modern enterprises achieve this by evolving their controls to be seamless, adaptive, and invisible to the user.
