While grandma’s stuffing might be the best part of your holiday turkey dinner, credential stuffing attacks can be the worst part of being the person responsible for your company’s security monitoring. Your IT environment likely consists of all the ingredients attackers need to deploy an attack successfully.

Test API specification With the growing footprint of APIs, there is a strong need for secure-by-design APIs. A design blueprint of an API would be a helpful start in determining the security standard of an API. Fortunately, APIs have that blueprint known as an OpenAPI Specification. API Specifications play a crucial role in ensuring the security and functionality of APIs.

Salt Labs researchers identified generative AI ecosystems as a new interesting attack vector. vulnerabilities found during this research on ChatGPT ecosystem could have granted access to accounts of users, including GitHub repositories, including 0-click attacks.

The deadline is approaching for U.S. government agencies to adhere to a Federal zero trust architecture (ZTA) strategy, as outlined in the 2022 Office of Budget Management (OMB) memorandum on Zero Trust cybersecurity principles. By the end of fiscal year 2024, agencies will be required to meet specific cybersecurity standards and objectives, according to the OMB memorandum (M-22-09).

Securing organizations against today’s most advanced threats continues to be challenging, with APIs (Application Programming Interfaces)playing an increasingly central and vulnerable role, especially as digital transformation marches on. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 (CSF) release underscores the urgency of addressing evolving threats and now emphasizes the importance of governance in Cybersecurity.

Government bodies are clamping down heavily on institutions and organizations that handle sensitive customer data. For APIs, tokens are used to authenticate users. We live in an era dominated by cloud-native and cloud-first solutions that rely on these services to provide dynamic data storage capabilities and overall computing capabilities for more accurate and actionable insights.
