An Enterprise Security Strategy That Turns SecOps Into Heroes

The tension between security teams and developers is palpable. Developers are considered impatient risk-takers, while SecOps folks are barely tolerated as a hindrance to adopting new tools and workflows. Weekly sprints, tight deadlines, and looming security threats (especially in the GenAI and vibe coding era) exacerbate this tension.

Microsoft Retires PowerShell 2.0 in Windows 11

The move to remove PowerShell 2.0 from Windows 11 is strategic and long overdue. Microsoft is making this move to embrace modern, secure, and efficient system tools.

Analysis reveals 35% of exposures coincide with other critical secrets including database, cloud tokens, and API credentials.

The Growing Supply-Chain Threat

Cyberattacks on supply chains in 2025 have become more frequent and severe, moving from isolated incidents to major multi-sector crises. These crises involve data theft in software patches, ransomware disrupting food, pharmaceutical, and financial pipelines. As attackers target vendors as entry points, defensive measures must adapt. This includes enhanced vendor vetting, code provenance controls, firmware security, and robust third-party risk response.

Cybersecurity Compliance in Finance: Why It's Your First Line of Trust, Not Just a Checkbox

In financial services, trust is everything. Clients trust you with their data, their money, and their future. But that trust can vanish overnight—especially when a cybersecurity incident exposes weak governance or regulatory non-compliance. In today’s threat landscape, financial institutions are more than just attractive targets for cybercriminals—they’re often the most regulated, most scrutinized, and most unforgiving places for a security slip.

Cato's Unique ZTNA Broker Architecture - A Difference That Matters!

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) has rapidly become a foundational security strategy for organizations modernizing their IT infrastructure. The increasing distribution of users, devices, and applications makes traditional security measures inadequate. Several solutions offer cloud-based brokers to implement ZTNA, but it’s crucial to understand that these solutions are not created equal. Let’s explore why Cato Networks’ cloud-based ZTNA solution distinctly stands apart.
