I’ve been working as an Application Security Auditor in Oupost24’s web application security testing team for almost three years now. Our team have shared several pieces of research over the past year, on topics including cross-site request forgery, cross-site scripting attacks, and weaponizing permissive Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) configurations.

Making your organization’s attack surface lean and agile improves your cyber resilience and demotivates bad actors. The first step to avoid cyber attacks is to get your attack surface in order. The Sweepatic External Attack Surface Management (EASM) Platform is built to help you with building cyber resilience. It lists, structures and prioritizes observations by criticality. 67%

When we carry out an assessment of an organization’s attack surface, it’s often SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) misconfigurations (and other encryption-related issues) that get the worst average scores. Research has estimated that 95% of applications have some kind of misconfiguration or vulnerability. These issues are often overlooked, but they shouldn’t be – their visibility to attackers make them an attack route that’s likely to be exploited.

International cooperation has become crucial to disrupt the operations of malicious cybercrime actors. A prime example of this is ‘Operation Magnus’ which has showcased the effectiveness of global collaboration in tackling sophisticated threats. By dismantling their infrastructure and exposing key players, Operation Magnus not only delivered a significant blow to cybercriminals but also sent shockwaves throughout underground forums and dark web communities.

Welcome to our blog series on Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM), where we dig into the five essential stages of implementing a robust CTEM program. Coined by Gartner in 2022, CTEM is a powerful process that can help continuously manage cyber hygiene and risk across your environment. It’s also a lot to think about when you’re starting out, so it helps to break things down.

If you’re a pentester, or a consumer of application security pentest reports, you’ll probably have come across Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) and its commonly associated misconfigurations. In either case, you’ll likely have quickly dismissed the finding because it resulted in yet another “recommendation” (a vulnerability without any impact).

Crystal Rans0m is a previously undocumented hybrid ransomware family developed in Rust programming language seen for the first time in the wild on September 2nd, 2023. Interestingly, it does not only encrypt victim’s files, demanding a ransom for their release, but also steals sensitive information from the infected systems. This dual-threat approach means that attackers can double their leverage over victims, potentially increasing their chances of monetizing their attacks.

Increasing digitalization and connectivity mean the attack surfaces of most organizations are growing. This means more IT assets to track and manage, plus more potential attack routes for threat actors to target. The threat situation is constantly increasing, especially in the area of vulnerabilities – last year over 30,000 new vulnerabilities were published. So how can you get an accurate view of your attack surface and where it might be open to exploitation?

There’s a gap between the identification of vulnerabilities and the IT resource available to remediate them within the timeframe hackers operate. With Outscan NX and Farsight, the vulnerability risk management process becomes more streamlined and efficient, enabling organizations to proactively address the biggest risk first to optimize security resource.

Penetration testing is an effective way to detect flaws in your application before they turn into a serious threat, helping you better understand the applications attack surface. But in the always-on economy there comes a problem - traditional pen testing delivery takes weeks to set up and the results are point in time, which leaves critical application vulnerabilities exposed longer than it should - given the average time for a threat actor to weaponize a new vulnerability is only 7 days.

Ransomware has continued to grow in maturity throughout the first half of 2021. As businesses struggle to understand yet another major attack that hit the Kaseya supply chain, organizations are beginning to realize data backups and cyber insurance alone won’t save them.

Added links in Outpost24 Scale DAST tool to Secure Code Warrior for findings with a CWE. Where an Appsec finding is linked to a CWE we have introduced direct links to Secure Code Warrior eLearning training platform. This gives users the ability to understand what the vulnerability is and more importantly how to address these findings within their development process. Customers do not have to be customers of Secure Code Warrior (SCW) to enjoy the learning modules presented, though customers who are SCW customers may get further insights as well as tracking scores and other metrics.

As zero trust moves higher up on the CISOs security agenda we’re hosting a webinar to discuss the pros and cons of adopting this new approach and how it can impact your team’s ability to remain agile, whilst protecting your business. As a recent study demonstrates, 34% of security breaches involved insiders in 2019 meaning CISOs are becoming more likely to consider zero trust and it should come as no surprise that many organizations are now eager to adopt a zero-trust security policy.

Web app attacks remain the #1 vector exploited in successful breaches. With agile development, apps run the risk of creating new vulnerabilities or perpetuating old ones on a weekly, daily, even hourly basis, security and risk managers need to step up a programmatic response. Fortunately there's a new, collaborative model for Appsec that organizations can operate in a mostly automated manner. Download our useful DevOps guide and learn how best to operationalize security testing in an agile process.

More and more companies choose to migrate to a Cloud infrastructure to take advantage of new resources, an elastic storage power and agile deployment, nevertheless IT professionals are not always trained to secure these new technologies. Like traditional infrastructures, a public Cloud infrastructure services requires the implementation of security measures and controls by their users. Enterprises must adapt their security policy to these new technologies to reap the Cloud benefits without increasing their cyberattacks exposure area.
