A phishing campaign is targeting GitHub users with phony CAPTCHA pages, according to researchers at McAfee. The phishing emails ask users to address a security vulnerability in a GitHub repository that they recently contributed to, and contain a link to find more information about the alleged vulnerability. This link leads to a fake CAPTCHA page that attempts to trick them into installing malware.

On-demand cyber risk quantification (CRQ) models have the power to assess an organization’s unique risk profile and, subsequently, generate data-driven insights that facilitate informed risk management decisions. The basis of these insights is grounded on a probabilistic approach to event forecasting, which involves simulating thousands of potential cyber scenarios a business may experience over a given period, typically the upcoming year.

John Lennon popularized the phrase, “Life is what happens when you’re making other plans.” And that’s an apt characterization for how we think about threat intelligence. We tend to focus on it to block or alert-on an attack. Meanwhile life is what’s happening to our threat intel while we’re making these plans. When we don’t pay attention to the threat intelligence lifecycle, we can run into trouble.

In today’s interconnected world, where the digital landscape is constantly evolving, the threats to an organization’s cybersecurity posture are more sophisticated and pervasive than ever before. Relying on traditional, largely prevention-focused cybersecurity tools and approaches is not enough. Cyber attacks are inevitable.

Organizations often find themselves caught in a perpetual cycle of identifying, prioritizing, and mitigating vulnerabilities that pose the most risk. Amid this ongoing battle, a significant challenge is often overlooked: security debt. Much like technical debt, security debt refers to the accumulation of unresolved vulnerabilities within an organization’s systems and software.
