Microsoft introduced AMSI (Antimalware Scan Interface) with Windows 10 in 2015. This interface standard allows third-party security products to be integrated with applications running on a Windows PC to improve detections for fileless and script-based attacks. Naturally, adversaries immediately began efforts to defeat AMSI.

At 2:46 p.m. EDT, Cloudflare reported intermittent failures across a range of its services, including: The outage lasted 2 hours and 28 minutes, affecting all global customers using these services.

For the second time in a row, Bitsight has been named an Overall Leader in the KuppingerCole Leadership Compass for Attack Surface Management (ASM)—and it’s not just a title. The report offers a deep dive into how organizations are using ASM to get ahead of cyber threats by proactively managing their digital risk.

Convergence has been claimed. Security orgs merged their teams, aligned their titles, and drew the new boxes on the whiteboard. The result: security teams are now responsible for both cloud and on-premises network environments.

In today’s connected OT, ICS and CPS world, critical infrastructure organizations have a need to extend remote access to employees, 3rd party contractors, and OEMs. But in the rush to support remote operations, many critical infrastructure operators have exposed their critical systems to a silent but severe risk: the user endpoint.

Identity and access management (IAM) is about enabling secure, scalable and efficient operations across increasingly complex environments. The right IAM solution doesn’t just support IT, it actively reduces friction, tightens security and adapts to an organization’s environment. Better outcomes happen with solutions that align with organizational needs and don’t demand numerous workarounds.

At Tines, we rely heavily on AWS Elastic Container Service (ECS) to power our workflow automation platform. For a couple of years, we used Fargate as our default compute layer – offering simplicity and removing the need to manage underlying hosts. However, as we scaled, we started hitting the edges of what Fargate could reliably offer. This is the story of why we migrated our backend services to an EC2-backed ECS Capacity Provider and what we learned along the way.

When large language models (LLMs) became popular following OpenAI’s public release of ChatGPT in November 2022, threat actors understood the potential of such systems and how they can be used in their malicious operations. However, the main challenge that threat actors encountered a couple of years ago is that the LLMs were censored and didn’t allow the creation of malicious content. Enter WormGPT.

As quantum computing creeps closer, the cryptographic mechanisms on which today’s digital world relies are becoming more and more fragile. In a prescient move, AWS Key Management Service (KMS) now supports ML-DSA, one of the first post-quantum digital signatures, which has become a standard under FIPS 203. This is an important step in AWS’s broader efforts to prepare customers for the post-quantum secure future.

WhatsApp has reached over 2 billion users worldwide, making it one of the most popular messaging platforms available for your phone, tablet, and desktop.
