More than ever, developers are building web applications on the foundations of open source software libraries. However, while those libraries make up the software bill of materials (SBOM) components inventory, not all developers and business stakeholders understand the significant impact on open source supply chain security that stems from including 3rd party libraries.
We were once newcomers to the security research field and one of the most annoying problems we ran across was how to get a CVE published. After all, what good is it to find a juicy vulnerability if you can’t get the word out to others? So, as a resource to help our fellow researchers, we decided to put together a CVE publishing guide based on our experience, and honestly a lot of good old trial and error.
Due to rising trends and policy changes, organizations are opting for solutions that ensure a proactive measure of cybersecurity. Companies are being held to much higher standards on how they collect, store, and protect individuals’ data. So they are searching for solutions that are both cost-effective and accurate.

These payloads and scripts were used to perform reconnaissance and ultimately download and execute NIGHT SPIDER’s Zloader trojan, as detailed in CrowdStrike Falcon X™ Premium reporting.
Machine learning (ML) detections are a powerful tool for detecting emerging threats when we don’t yet know what we’re looking for. The power of anomaly detection is the ability to detect and provide early warning on new threat activity for which rules, indicators, or signatures are not yet available.
