Application development is a multistage process. The App goes through various stages, each with its own area of focus. However, application security, a.k.a. AppSec, is constant throughout all the stages. For example, when a developer codes, it’s expected that the code will be secure. Similarly, the artifacts that are worked upon or generated as an end output of the respective stages are all required to be secure.

Understanding the factors influencing cybercriminal behavior is essential for developing effective cybercrime prevention strategies. Rationality plays a significant role in shaping criminal decisions, particularly through the lens of the rational actor model and deterrence theory.

The rapid advancements in large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the manner in which we interact with technology. These powerful AI systems have found their way into a wide range of applications, from conversational assistants and content generation tools to more complex decision-making systems. As the adoption of LLM-powered applications continues to grow, it has become increasingly crucial to prioritize the security and safety of these technologies.

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats, staying ahead requires more than just detection; it demands comprehensive correlation and analysis for informed decision-making. Understanding the context surrounding an alert is important to effectively mitigate risk. That's why we're thrilled to announce the integration of CrowdStrike Falcon EDR with Investigator, part of Corelight’s Open NDR Platform.

The market for managed services is poised for continued growth with cybersecurity being in high demand. Small and midsize businesses (SMBs) are increasingly concerned about protecting their people, data, applications, and Cloud workloads from risks, and many SMBs are now familiar with the MSP model and becoming more selective.

Consider this: it’s not a question of if, but when, an insider threat attack will strike your company. A malicious insider, armed with legitimate access, can execute an insider attack. The aftermath? It can leave a lasting mark on your corporate reputation, intellectual property, security team, and employee morale.

Network migration is a critical undertaking for any organization looking to optimize their network performance, adopt new technologies, or achieve cost savings. However, this process poses numerous challenges that can lead to disruptions and unwarranted risks if not properly managed.

Cloud workloads continue to grow as new digital innovations arise monthly in the worlds of IoT applications, cloud services, and big data analytics. However, the cloud's dynamic and often complex nature can make cloud application security challenging. This gap in cloud security readiness is a growing concern for organizations worldwide, with CISOs feeling the pressure. 61% of CISOs feel unequipped to cope with a targeted attack, and 68% expect such an attack within the following year.

Vulnerabilities are everywhere and often exploited. For example, in 2023, over 29,000 critical and high vulnerabilities were discovered across approximately 1,400 applications. The dynamic and evolving attack surfaces make it harder to protect against these threats. When the attack surface gets bigger, so does the risk of cyber attacks. This blog delves into what an attack surface is and recommends best practices in attack surface reduction.
