Cybercriminals can't ascertain your phone password just from a Wi-Fi signal, but they can come close according to a method described in a recent research paper. Researchers have demonstrated a method that uses Wi-Fi signals to infer numerical passwords, and the mechanics behind it are nothing short of intriguing. Side-channel attacks often remind me of James Bond-like espionage. So does a research paper that is to appear at ACM CCS later this year.

Arguably, the most used device by an organization’s employees is their smartphone. Ensuring that anyone, from the CEO to a newcomer being onboarded, knows how to keep this device safe should be paramount. Why? Globally, more than 2 million attacks on mobile devices are reported each month, according to Statista. While the number of attacks has dropped precipitously from its peak of 6.5 million in October 2020, it is still dangerously high and a favorite threat actor attack vector.

In an era where mobile applications are a crucial part of our daily lives, the security of these applications, especially Android apps, has become paramount. As per a report by Statista, in 2022, there were 1802 data breaches in the United States, with over 422.14 million individuals affected.

Imagine constructing a building without a blueprint or cooking a complex recipe without a list of ingredients. It would be a chaotic and inefficient process, right? The same principle applies to manufacturing and production. That's where the Bill of Materials (BOM) comes into play. In this article, we will explore the meaning, purpose, and diverse types of BOMs, illustrating how they serve as the foundation for seamless production processes.

Unified endpoint management (UEM) has played a significant role over the years in enabling companies to improve the productivity and security of their corporate mobile devices and applications. In the early days of endpoint management there were separate workflows and products as it pertains to traditional endpoints, such as desktops and laptops, versus mobile devices.

Creating a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) is crucial to software supply chain security management. It helps fortify your software supply chain and reduces the likeliness of your software being exploited. But did you know there's a way to enhance your software's security further? Well, that's when API inventory comes into the picture. Including API inventory in your SBOM can make your software solution more resilient to cyberattacks.
