Enhance your threat detection, investigation, and response by integrating Microsoft Defender for Endpoint data with Elastic Security. Many security teams often find it difficult to detect and respond to threats because of fragmented visibility and isolated endpoint data. This challenge led to the development of extended detection and response (XDR), which integrates endpoint insights with contextualized data from networks, cloud environments, and identity systems.

A compromise (CVE-2025-30066) was discovered in the popular GitHub Action tj-actions/changed-files on March 14, 2025. It impacted tens of thousands of repositories that use this action to track file changes. This blog will explain how Falco Actions can easily be integrated into your workflows to help detect this CI/CD attack and provide in-depth visibility. Falco Actions is an open-source project that monitors your CI/CD workflows for potential threats in real time, leveraging the OSS tool Falco.

Did you know that over 90% of modern software applications rely on open-source code? With millions of developers using GitHub daily, the platform has become a goldmine for hackers looking to exploit misconfigured repositories. In the past, incidents occurred where thousands of developers lost access to their projects when attackers wiped out GitHub accounts using simple security loopholes. GitHub is a powerful platform, but if you don’t secure your repository, you invite hackers to your front door.

Security breaches originating from within organizations represent some of the most damaging incidents facing IT teams today. While external threats receive significant attention, insider activities often cause more severe impacts due to the privileged access these individuals already possess. Digital forensics has proven essential in identifying and mitigating these insider risks before they develop into major incidents by enabling teams to analyze data from multiple digital sources.

Healthcare asset management plays a vital role to protect sensitive patient data and maintain HIPAA compliance. The Office for Civil Rights reports that organizations don’t know where their electronic protected health information (ePHI) exists within their systems. This highlights an urgent need to track inventory and update systems properly. Let’s explore how healthcare organizations can build an asset inventory system that works.

New cyber threats emerge daily, demanding constant attention. Security isn't something you do once and forget about! According to IBM, the average cost of a data breach in 2024 was $4.88 million, a 10% increase from the previous year. That’s why it's crucial to integrate regular mobile app security audits into your strategy. Think of it as a health check-up for your app – catching problems before they become nightmares.

Adopting modern identity and access management (IAM) solutions is a crucial step in your security roadmap. Here are seven compelling reasons for organizations to make the switch to Cloud-based identity systems to unlock a range of identity security enhancements and expanding use cases.

Attackers are not just targeting your people. They have their sights set on your infrastructure, too. That's why identities (not perimeters) are the new attack surface. In our latest webinar, Ev Kontsevoy, CEO of Teleport, and Jack Poller, Principal Analyst at Paradigm Technica, break down why traditional identity and access approaches are insufficient to support resiliency in modern computing environments as attack surfaces increase and identity volumes explode. Their conclusion is clear.

You’ve heard it a hundred times – security is everyone’s responsibility. But when security starts slowing things down, it’s usually engineering teams that feel the pain. Nobody wants to be the one responsible for shipping vulnerabilities into production, but at the same time, nobody wants security to be the reason releases grind to a halt. This is the dilemma DevSecOps was supposed to solve – bringing security into the development process without breaking everything.

Mobile banking has quickly become a way of life — whether you're transferring cash on the go, checking your balance from your wristwatch, or paying dinner bills with a QR code. But with convenience, there is risk. Cybercrooks are tuning in, testing, and coming up with more ways to get in. From synthetic identities to fake apps, the threats are imminent and continuous.
