It seems like only yesterday that we launched the Compliance Plus training library as a result of customers asking us to address their needs beyond security awareness training. The team and I were just looking at our first few months where we had just over 20,000 customer completions in June of 2021. We have since had millions of users complete our content and the library has grown from 115 pieces of content at launch to over 800 pieces of content.

Discover how cyber threat intelligence can transform your security strategy and keep your organization safe from evolving threats.

We are excited to announce the launch of Veracode Threat Research, a new initiative to counter software supply chain threats. Thanks to the acquisition of Phylum, Inc., we are now equipped with cutting-edge technology and a wealth of expertise to revolutionize how we secure the open-source ecosystem and protect your developers from novel attacks.

Cyber threats are escalating rapidly, with the cost of global cybercrime projected to reach $10.5 trillion annually by 2025, up from $3 trillion in 2015. In response, organisations are significantly ramping up their cybersecurity investments. The global threat intelligence market size was estimated at $11.6 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.6% from 2024 to 2030. However, merely increasing budgets isn’t enough.

Modern cloud architectures are increasingly distributed, with applications and services spanning multiple regions to improve availability, reduce latency, and support disaster recovery. Many of our customers rely on solutions like Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) peering, Network Address Translation (NAT) gateways, and AWS Transit Gateways to securely send telemetry to Datadog across regions. These methods work but can add complexity, increase costs, and create potential security risks.

Financial data has always been a prime target for cybercriminals due to its high value. Therefore, banks, loan services, credit unions, and investment and brokerage firms are highly vulnerable to cyberattacks. Moreover, security incidents in the financial sector are extremely costly (surpassed only by the healthcare industry), with the average total cost of a data breach reaching $6.08 million in 2024.

Data is the critical foundation for all organizations, powering innovation, decisions, and growth. It’s also the fastest-growing attack surface, with sensitive information scattered across clouds, on-premise servers, and SaaS platforms. Cyera, the leader in modern data security, provides rich visibility into sensitive data down to its DNA level, providing vital context, identifying data risks and vulnerabilities, and delivering SOC teams a clear map of their data attack surface.

If you’re a security analyst, you know the work never stops. Even after your team completes an extensive vendor risk assessment and remediation, you still need to write a report to share your findings with key stakeholders. And this work isn’t a walk in the park by any means. Writing a risk assessment report often requires hours (or even days) of summarizing information, repopulating graphs, and balancing technical details with clarity to cater to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

When was the last time your business or enterprise tested its defenses with a real-world attack simulation? If the answer is never—or more than a year ago—your company may be more vulnerable than you think. Regular penetration testing by an expert team like Cybriant is one of the most effective ways to uncover and fix security weaknesses before attackers exploit them. Interested in learning more?

In today’s rapidly evolving digital ecosystem, organizations are entrusted with an unprecedented volume of data. As cyber threats become more sophisticated and compliance demands grow increasingly stringent, establishing a strong information security posture has never been more critical. ISO/IEC 27001, an internationally recognized standard, serves as the foundation for building a comprehensive Information Security Management System (ISMS).
