How to Conduct Web Application Penetration Testing

According to Verizon’s Data Breach Investigations Report, 43% of confirmed breaches on vulnerabilities involved web application vulnerabilities, making them one of the most common attack vectors. So how do you find the vulnerabilities before attackers do? That is the real challenge in modern web application security. As organizations scale digital services, APIs, and user-facing portals, the attack surface grows rapidly, and with it, the risk of exposure.

Designing the Future of Agentic AI: Cato Engineering Details a New Practical, Secure, and Scalable MCP Server Framework

Some of you may remember the early days of security, when setting up a firewall or antivirus felt like enough. It was simple and gave us a sense of control. But over time, we learned that security is a moving target. What once felt sufficient quickly became just the starting point. In today’s agentic AI era, many treat their Model Context Protocol (MCP) setups the same way. If it’s running and returning results, it feels good enough. But the AI landscape is evolving rapidly.

From Ideas to Impact: How the Bay Area Is Shaping the Future of Secure AI

Generative AI is reshaping how software is made, secured, and scaled. At Snyk’s Lighthouse event in Silicon Valley, leaders from engineering, security, and platform teams gathered to explore one big question: How do we build AI-powered systems that move fast, without breaking trust? For many, that future is already here — 60% of organizations at the Summit reported building agentic apps internally. The answers weren’t just technical. They were cultural. Organizational. Strategic.

How to Use the OWASP AI Testing Guide to Pentest AI Applications (2025)

For years, the cybersecurity community has discussed the theoretical risks of artificial intelligence. We’ve imagined biased algorithms and adversarial attacks, but these conversations usually stayed hypothetical. That era is over. It’s time to move beyond the theory and into the practical “how-to” of finding and exploiting vulnerabilities in AI systems. To execute this, the new OWASP AI Testing Guide (AITG) is indispensable.

Beyond Traditional Defenses: Why French Cyber Resilience Needs to Improve

In today's world, cyberattacks are a constant threat. While technical defenses are crucial, people often remain the easiest attack vector for cybercriminals. To gauge the resilience of French employees against cyberattacks, we looked at the impact of security awareness training (SAT) and phishing simulations in strengthening their defenses. Our latest report, "Go Phish: How Susceptible Are French Employees To Malicious Attacks?", aims to provide some insight.

Social Engineering Attacks Surged in the First Half of 2025

Cybersecurity incidents nearly tripled in the first half of 2025, jumping from 6% in the second half of 2024 to 17% in 2025, according to a new report from LevelBlue. Business email compromise (BEC) remains the most common method for initial access, but non-BEC tactics rose by 214%. The researchers observed a major surge in social engineering attacks, driven by the recent popularity of the ClickFix tactic.

Simplify access reviews with Trelica by 1Password

It’s difficult for organizations to stay secure, compliant, and efficient in an ever-expanding SaaS landscape. Every time an employee joins or leaves the company, or a software vendor is added or removed, IT and security teams must grant and revoke permissions, so the right people have access to the right tools. A mistake in this process could allow an offboarded employee to maintain access to sensitive data years after they left the company, so the stakes are high.
