Almost 30 years ago, two graduate students at Stanford University — Larry Page and Sergey Brin — began working on a research project they called Backrub. That, of course, was the project that resulted in Google. But also something more: it created the business model for the web. The deal that Google made with content creators was simple: let us copy your content for search, and we'll send you traffic.

Did you hear the news? You can now build and deploy agents in Tines using the AI Agent action type - an evolution of our AI action!

After those efforts were unsuccessful, they pivoted to spearphishing by sending spoofed emails that appeared to originate from internal users. These emails used the subject line “Reminder-Your-to-do-list” and contained a malicious.HTM attachment.

In the cybercrime ecosystem, innovation often comes in disturbing forms. The ransomware group Qilin—already notorious for offering a full suite of extortion tools to affiliates—has introduced a new feature that elevates psychological warfare to a new level: a “Call a Lawyer” button. This isn’t satire. This is real social engineering, now backed with actual legal threats.

June 2025 has seen WhatsApp back in the headlines—this time for all the wrong reasons. Earlier this month, The National broke the story: WhatsApp’s security is under renewed scrutiny following revelations that Israel remains the only known actor to have successfully exploited it.

At Appknox, we decided to verify the current state of WhatsApp’s mobile app security for ourselves.

Omdia, a global analyst and advisory leader, recently released a report called “How Extended Access Management (XAM) closes the gaps in security.” This report describes how existing approaches to access management have failed to address the security, budgetary, and compliance risks posed by unmanaged identities, applications, and devices.

In this article Businesses looking for serious compliance street cred often turn first to ISO 27001. ISO 27001 is a globally recognized framework that outlines and defines information security management system (ISMS) requirements.
