Kubernetes is a container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications, abstracting many of the manual steps of rolling upgrades and scaling. When building cloud-native applications, you’ll often need to deploy database applications like PostgreSQL so that your applications can leverage their features within the cluster.

Let’s be honest. Most cloud security alerts feel like trying to read a book with half the pages missing. You get bits and pieces — “unusual login,” “suspicious process,” “network traffic spike” — but no real explanation of what actually happened or what you should do about it. That’s the daily reality for security teams. You’re not just fighting attackers; you’re fighting for context.

These days, the most worrisome phishing threats against businesses often don’t arrive via email. Instead, threat actors are increasingly turning to phishing variations in the form of vishing and smishing—techniques that use alternative communication channels to deliver messages designed to elicit or outright steal sensitive information from employees or customers. These attacks often leverage social engineering, malicious links, and other tactics.

Identity theft is no longer just a problem affecting individual users – it’s a serious business threat. When companies lack a comprehensive, centralized security strategy, they remain exposed to identity-based attacks. Add to this the challenge of protecting both personal and corporate data in hybrid or remote work environments, and the risk becomes even more difficult to manage. According to the U.S.

It started with a sudden alteration in chemical levels in the water treatment system. When a threat actor adjusted the level of sodium hydroxide to more than 100 times its normal amount, millions were at risk of being poisoned. Luckily, it was stopped in time. This is not fiction. It is one of several real incidents already published in 2021. Since then, more incidents have been identified, targeting critical water facilities and other OT infrastructure.

The recent publication of Gartner’s Market Guide For Third-Party Risk Management Technology Solutions (1) is especially timely as the percentage of cyber breaches involving third parties doubled over the past year to 30% according to Verizon’s 2025 Data Breach Investigations Report.

Modern IT is innately complex, which leads to matching complexity in the security environment and indeed for managing privileged accounts. Companies rely on multi-cloud and hybrid cloud deployments to get more flexibility and to enhance resilience. But the flipside of a distributed, decentralized IT approach is a variety of security models across platforms. That creates a broad attack surface, and a complex web of privileged accounts.

Phishing site takedowns do serve a purpose-they help remove websites that impersonate trusted brands and pose real risks to your customers. The problem is timing. These takedowns often arrive too late, after users have already been tricked into handing over their credentials or personal information. Too often, phishing campaigns are only discovered once the damage is done.

When most people think of cybersecurity breaches, they imagine hackers cracking passwords or exploiting vulnerabilities. In reality, the weakest link in any security program is often the human element.

The recent launch of the European Union Vulnerability Database (EUVD) by the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) marks an important moment in the region’s approach to software vulnerability management. Made operational as part of the EU’s obligations under the NIS2 Directive, the EUVD joins a small but critical group of global vulnerability databases – until now led almost exclusively by the US-based Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) programme.
