The 2022 holiday shopping season is here. Retailers’ discounts are kicking off early, and shoppers are eager to spend, especially with big price markdowns to come as the season progresses. And with the COVID-19 pandemic still a concern to shoppers, more people are expected to shop online this season. What this also means is that as consumers whip themselves into a shopping frenzy, cybercriminals have activated their seasonal scams to try and steal money or personal information.

The last decade has seen a dramatic rise in data breach risk, with data breach incidents increasing nearly 840% between 2005 and 2019 according to the Identity Theft Resource Center. In this guide, learn about the growing problem of sensitive data exposure and how to use the Nightfall Developer Platform to easily build tools to identify and remediate this problem.

A detailed overview of the Remote Code Execution (RCE) attacks, how it affects the Kubernetes infrastructure, and how the vulnerabilities of the K8 systems can be mitigated. Remote Code Execution (RCE) is a vulnerability in systems that cybercriminals can exploit to perform attacks. In RCE attacks, hackers execute malicious code in target systems remotely, irrespective of their location on the network. That’s because they don’t need the target systems to have the execution functionality.

Keeping track of what technologies are being utilized across your attack surface has become virtually impossible as a result of the pace of innovation, developer methodologies, and many other factors. Questions such as, “Where am I hosting all of my WordPress sites? Or “What 3rd-party software is it using?” often go unanswered because of the sheer number of domains organizations now have to monitor.

I recently read a technology forum post where a system administrator described symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder after their company was attacked by ransomware. The recent State of Data Security report from Rubrik Zero Labs even found that 96% of individuals suffered emotional or psychological impacts as a direct result of experiencing a cyberattack.

‍Plex was breached by an unauthorized third-party gained who gained access to a proprietary database. The specific attack vector that facilitated the breach hasn’t been disclosed. According to Plex, cybercriminals “tunneled” their way through sophisticated cybersecurity mechanisms to gain access to sensitive customer data.

We have more sign-in options than ever, but keeping track of them all is becoming increasingly difficult. So we’re making it easier.

Announced today at AWS re:Invent, Amazon CodeCatalyst brings together everything software development teams need to plan, code, build, test and deploy applications on AWS into a streamlined, integrated experience.

It’s rare that a week goes by without at least one data breach making the news. Criminals are targeting companies of all sizes to see if they can slip past their digital defenses and steal confidential data.
