Poland's Energy Sector Attack is a Wake-Up Call for Improving Edge Security

The Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) issued an alert this week based on an attack that struck Poland’s energy sector in late 2025. The attack compromised the operational technology (OT) and industrial control systems (ICS) in 30 renewable energy and heating plants, impacting 500,000 people and also that nation’s manufacturing sector.

What is threat and vulnerability management? Essential cybersecurity guide

Threat and vulnerability management (TVM) is a continuous, risk-based cybersecurity discipline that combines vulnerability assessment with threat intelligence to identify, prioritize, and remediate security weaknesses before attackers can exploit them. Rather than treating vulnerability scanning and threat detection as separate activities, TVM integrates both into a unified lifecycle that connects visibility, context, action, and validation.

Public Wi-Fi vs Secure Mobile Data: What Remote Workers Need to Know

You can work from almost anywhere today, cafés, airports, hotels, even park benches. Free public Wi-Fi makes it easy to jump online fast. But is it really safe? Many remote workers don't think about security until something goes wrong. One weak network can expose emails, client files, passwords, and payment details in minutes. On the other hand, secure mobile data offers more control and privacy-but may cost more. So which option should you trust with your work? In this guide, we'll break down the real risks, clear up common myths, and help you choose the safest connection for your remote setup.

Vendor Risk Response: What Happens After a Vendor Risk Is Identified?

In today's interconnected business environment, the relationship between organizations and their third-party vendors is crucial. However, it also introduces a range of risks. Vendor risk refers to the potential vulnerabilities or threats that arise from working with external suppliers, service providers, or partners. These risks can manifest in various forms, including data breaches, financial instability, operational disruptions, or non-compliance with regulations. Once a vendor risk is identified, it's essential to understand the steps that need to be taken to manage and mitigate that risk effectively.

What Network Observability Reveals That Traditional Monitoring Misses

Modern enterprise networks have evolved into complex ecosystems that span multiple cloud environments, hybrid infrastructures, and countless interconnected devices. While traditional network monitoring has served organizations for decades, the increasing sophistication of cyber threats and the exponential growth in network traffic demand a more nuanced approach. Network observability emerges as the next evolution, providing unprecedented visibility into network behavior that traditional monitoring simply cannot match.
