The Department of War’s (DoW) new Cybersecurity Risk Management Construct (CSRMC) marks a watershed moment for cyber defense. This move confirms that static, checklist-based security is obsolete. To defend against modern threats, organizations must adopt the continuous and proactive posture management approach experts have been recommending for years.

Phishing campaigns are often misunderstood. They are not about catching employees doing something wrong. Instead, they are a safe environment to practice the right behaviors.

Picture your online shopping site overwhelmed with fake orders, your customer accounts being drained one after another, or your essential APIs flooded by an endless wave of automated attacks. This is the reality businesses face today—thanks to a fully automated army of cyber criminals determined to cause harm. In this digital bot invasion, businesses of all kinds are under urgent pressure to establish defenses that effectively fight this digital threat.

Today marks a significant milestone in the technology landscape. As of October 14, 2025, Microsoft has officially ended support for non-LTSC releases of Windows 10, concluding one of the most widely adopted operating systems in history. From this point forward, the operating system will no longer receive security updates or feature patches by default. While Microsoft offers Extended Security Updates (ESUs) for Windows 10 version 22H2, these are temporary and designed as a bridge solution.

As AI and automation become the norm, more and more organizations lean on them to streamline decision-making processes across business functions, including security. ‍ Traditional AI solutions take on repetitive and time-consuming tasks, freeing teams to focus on higher-level strategy and growth.

Adversaries have shifted their tactics away from traditional malware and toward approaches that exploit the very tools organizations rely on. Instead of introducing malicious files that can be blocked outright, attackers weaponize legitimate applications such as built-in Windows utilities, remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools, file transfer software, and administrative programs.

Two months since I joined Detectify and I’ve realized something: API security is a completely different game from web application security. And honestly? I think a lot of teams don’t see this yet.

Remote work is no longer a contingency – it’s the operating norm. Yet the security posture for that work often leans on virtual desktops as a default, even when the workforce is dominated by bring‑your‑own‑device (BYOD) users and short‑term contractors. Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) can centralize risk, but it can also centralize failure, expand the admin plane, and add latency that users will work around.

As Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) announces a return to operations after a six-week disruption, a lengthier, less publicised UK-based cyber-attack recovery remains unresolved. Perhaps the relative quiet is because Colt Technology Services, a critical connectivity and trading network serving major banks and stock exchanges in ~30 countries, is not a household name like JLR, Co-Op, or M&S. Or perhaps it’s because the narrative doesn’t fit the now-expected Scattered Spider storyline.

Static code analysis wasn’t always built into the development process. That means most bugs were detected during testing, after the code was already merged and deployed. By that point, fixing issues was time-consuming, expensive, and risky. Small mistakes slipped into production. Security gaps widened and quality suffered. Static analysis shifts all of that left by bringing security and quality checks into the earliest stages of development.
