Analysts rely on User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) tools to track anomalies, investigate incidents, and respond to cybersecurity threats. However, the varying nature of user and entity behaviors across different organizations means that predetermined thresholds often fail to account for unique baselines. Even within the same environment, temporal variations can cause significant differences in monitoring signals.

Developers simply want to write code without interruption, while operations wish to build as fast as possible and deploy without restrictions. On the other hand, security professionals want to protect every step of the software supply chain from any potential security threats and vulnerabilities. In software development, every piece of code can potentially introduce vulnerabilities into the software supply chain.

Prioritization in vulnerability management is not just about fixing problems but fixing the right problems at the right time. Not all vulnerabilities have the same level of risk. But gathering details to understand vulnerability impact takes time, a huge challenge for already overworked staff. Many are forced to work backward, taking critical issues obtained from 3rd party sources like CISA KEV or a Reddit forum and then search for assets that it may apply to.

Remote work and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) culture have made mobile devices a permanent part of our work lives. In today’s professional world, mobile devices can do basically everything a laptop or desktop can do — including get phished. Mobile devices are increasingly the starting point of the modern kill chain, and mobile phishing plays an important role in the process. Understanding how threat actors attack mobile devices is the first step to keeping data and devices secure. ‍

With cybercrime costs projected to hit $10.5 trillion by 2025, securing digital assets is more critical than ever. Black box testing in security has become a key strategy for organizations to identify vulnerabilities in software and systems proactively. This blog delves into the essential role of black box security testing in mitigating risks along with its various types and techniques.

Credential stuffing is shaping up to be one of the most predominant hacking methods of 2024. In early June, Ticketmaster fell victim to a data breach via credential stuffing, exposing information from 560 million customers. Credential stuffing attacks involve using stolen usernames and passwords to access accounts. In these attacks, threat actors also often use automation to try different combinations of credentials until they find a successful match.

Cloud breaches continue to rise unabated as organizations adopt hybrid cloud strategies. Many organizations have tried to simply extend their preexisting on-premises security into the cloud, but the cloud is a fundamentally different environment for security. It’s faster, more complex, and more dynamic, with an ever-increasing attack surface. Striking first means adversaries have a head start by default, leaving organizations only a fraction of time to investigate and initiate a response.

Over the years, several security defense architectures have merged into a single solution. Endpoint detection tools can perform sophisticated detections and correlations that used to require a Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS), Web Proxy, and SIEM. Application Firewalls often provide features like Proxy, antivirus, and NIDS, and now we have Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), which promises to be the next multi-tool security solution. Let’s give SASE a closer look.

Knowledge is power. Especially in the hands of your competitors. Information about your company, its products and services, finances, sales, and marketing strategy is a weapon in the ruthless world of espionage in business. That’s why it’s important to ensure that your organization’s data is well-protected. In this article, we reveal the meaning of corporate espionage and explain how to prevent industrial espionage.
