As governments continue to digitize services, the number of systems that support public administration continues to grow. With this expansion comes greater cybersecurity risk. To address these risks, Spain established the Esquema Nacional de Seguridad (ENS), a national framework designed to protect information systems used by public sector organizations. ENS defines the security requirements that ensure government systems remain secure, reliable, and resilient.

On March 4, 2026, Cisco released fixes for two maximum-severity vulnerabilities impacting Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC), which is used to centrally manage Cisco Secure Firewall devices.

Security teams are under more pressure than ever, reacting at human speed while systems, identities, and AI agents operate at machine speed. In this episode of Security Matters, host David Puner sits down with cybersecurity leader and former FBI executive MK Palmore to explore why defenders struggle to keep pace and what it takes to regain control.

On March 03, 2026, pac4j released fixes for a maximum severity vulnerability in pac4j-jwt, tracked as CVE-2026-29000. The flaw arises from improper verification of cryptographic signatures in the JwtAuthenticator component when processing encrypted JWTs (JWE). A remote, unauthenticated threat actor who knows the server’s RSA public key can bypass authentication and impersonate arbitrary users (including administrators) by submitting a crafted JWE whose inner token is an unsigned PlainJWT.
