Chapter One: The State of Vulnerability Management

Vulnerability exploitation is involved in over half of breaches, making it a huge risk to organizations. And the problem only continues to balloon year over year... both in the speed at which attackers are capitalizing on exploited vulnerabilities, and in the way that technology and assets outgrow most organization's current vulnerability management programs. In this series, we're going to be breaking down how vulnerability management has grown and evolved over time, plus how to modernize your program using things like risk-based vulnerability management.

The Future of Cybersecurity: Leveraging Breach and Attack Simulation for Proactive Defense

The digital landscape is no longer a frontier; it's a full-fledged battlefield. As organizations become increasingly reliant on interconnected technologies, their attack surface expands exponentially. Firewalls and antivirus software, the traditional defense lines, are akin to medieval fortifications in the face of modern artillery. To survive in this ever-evolving warzone, organizations need a proactive approach, a way to anticipate and counter threats before they inflict damage. Enter Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS), a transformative tool poised to revolutionize the future of cybersecurity.

Six takeaways from our ASPM masterclass series

Software development moves fast, and many application security teams struggle to keep up. More sophisticated agile, DevOps, and cloud practices, along with the growing use of AI, mean more agility for development teams. However, these innovations are a challenge for security teams, as they must move at this same speed in order to secure applications effectively. Application security posture management (ASPM) directly responds to these emerging challenges.

What Are the Five Pillars of Zero-Trust Security?

The zero trust maturity model is a Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) initiative to help achieve a modern approach of zero trust through the implementation of five pillars with cross-cutting capabilities. The five pillars of zero-trust security are identity, device, network, application and workload and data.

Navigating Cybersecurity Risk Management: Aligning Stakeholder Expectations in Response to Regulations

In light of the SEC's cybersecurity disclosure regulations in the US and NIS2 in Europe, corporate executives and institutional investors are facing a pressing need to align their expectations and improve understanding around cybersecurity risk management. The evolving threat landscape and regulatory environment highlight the importance of cohesive strategies to measure, prioritize, mitigate, and communicate cyber risks effectively.

Is SSRF A New Disease Targeting Doctors?

Our healthcare client faced a security threat through PDF generation on their platform. We discovered a flaw that allowed harmful code to be included in PDFs, enabling us to access internal server files and services as well as obtaining AWS credentials. Taking proactive steps is vital to protect healthcare systems from such vulnerabilities.

What does IAM PassRole do and How to Set it Up

95% of cloud security fails are due to internal slip-ups. One wrong password, one sloppy permission, and your sensitive data are out in the open. Thankfully, AWS gives you tools to fight back. IAM lets you control who does what, down to the finest detail. And IAM PassRole? It prevents sneaky permission grabs that put your data at risk.
