Beyond the Basics: Advanced Features in Application Security Testing Software

The landscape of application development is moving faster than ever, driven by AI and cloud-native technologies. While this rapid innovation creates opportunity, it also expands the attack surface, making robust security non-negotiable. As a security leader, you understand that effective application security testing software is the foundation of a strong defense. But in the face of escalating threats, are the basic tools still enough?

Digital Asset Custody as the Strategic Foundation for Banking's Digital Future

Most banks approach digital assets with the same assumptions they use for traditional custody. It is a natural starting point, but it does not hold. Digital assets behave differently, and control that once sat inside core systems now has to be applied in the wallet layer. Institutions that understand this now gain meaningful advantages in speed, flexibility, and market positioning.

Flying blind on workforce security? Let User Risk be your co-pilot.

What we heard loud and clear from security teams is that they’re flying blind when it comes to securing their workforce. In fact, companies often have more SaaS applications than they do employees. They just don’t realize it. Secondly, there’s a tremendously long tail of SaaS applications only being used by one person in the organization. Imagine trying to imagine that manually. User Risk, solves this visibility gap by giving organizations visibility into your human risk, enabling safe AI adoption, and driving a security-first culture.

Critical WSUS Flaw Exploited: Chinese APTs Deploy ShadowPad Backdoor via CVE-2025-59287

A New Wave of Supply-Chain Chaos: SHA1HULUD Malware Hijacks NPM Ecosystem and Exfiltrates Developer Secrets

A previously known malware strain, SHA1-HULUD, has resurfaced with a large-scale software supply-chain attack targeting the NPM ecosystem. More than 300 open-source NPM packages were maliciously modified within a short window, leading to the theft of sensitive credentials and over 20,000 compromised GitHub repositories.

When cybercrime meets cyberwarfare

Across today’s threat landscape, the divide between cybercrime and cyberwarfare is disappearing. Financially motivated groups and state-sponsored actors rely on the same tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs)—exploiting zero-day and one-day vulnerabilities, abusing ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) platforms, hiding behind proxies, and living off the land (LotL) within legitimate IT environments. They also often target the same enterprises.
