There are many NSFW instances in which substituting a single letter in a word can make the difference between a person retaining their job and finding themselves scanning career sites for a new position. Luckily, this does not carry over when looking at the difference between SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) and SSE (Security Service Edge).

Web application penetration testing has a reputation for being more complicated than it needs to be, as new testers are often dropped into a sea of tools and terminology with little guidance on how an objective test should flow.

The first comprehensive security audit of the Agent Skills ecosystem reveals malware, credential theft, and prompt injection attacks targeting OpenClaw, Claude Code, and Cursor users Agent skills are reusable capability packages that instruct AI agents how to interact with tools, APIs, or system resources—and they're rapidly becoming standard in AI-powered development.

Identity has become the defining security challenge for organizations navigating SaaS sprawl, AI adoption, and an increasingly distributed workforce.

On Monday, February 3rd, Snyk Staff Senior Engineer Luca Beurer-Kellner and Senior Incubation Engineer Hemang Sarkar uncovered a massive systemic vulnerability in the ClawHub ecosystem (clawhub.ai).
