Bad bots, hackers, and other malicious agents can be tracked by a huge volume of metrics – session activity, HTTP headers, response times, request volume & cadence, and more. This complexity has created a market for siloed, complex, and extremely expensive tools. In contrast, Coralogix can consume simplistic data, like CDN logs, and derive complex, dynamically changing scores. When coupled with built-in cost optimization and the wider platform features, this makes a very compelling case.

On May 8, 2024, Ascension Healthcare notified business partners of suspicious activity detected within their systems. They have launched investigations and are actively working on remediation efforts. Consequently, some systems will experience interruptions during this process, such as clinical operations.

A cloud-based application security assessment (or ASA) is a systematic evaluation to identify vulnerabilities and improve security in cloud applications. It aims to ensure the application’s structural, design, and operational integrity against all cyber threats. A staggering 82% of data breaches in 2023 involved data stored in the cloud.

Trust and transparency are key to winning customers today.

In line with the original blog, there will be a few references to Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings. So, without further ado, you have my sword, and you have my bow, and my axe, or, at the very least, some of my NIST CSF 2.0 insights.

Retail and hospitality businesses prioritize delivering exceptional customer service and growing revenue.

As 2024 continues forward, Australia and New Zealand’s critical infrastructure sectors face significant cybersecurity challenges. Critical infrastructure (CI) sectors–encompassing energy, healthcare, transportation, water, and communication–are at a pivotal moment in their evolution. The rapid digitisation of these sectors brings not only unprecedented efficiency and connectivity but also a significantly expanded attack surface.

In April 2024, a significant breach rattled the financial sector as HSBC and Barclays, two prominent banking institutions, fell victim to a data breach.
