GenAI adoption is exploding across organizations, transforming how work gets done and where data moves. CrowdStrike is announcing four new innovations in CrowdStrike Falcon Data Protection to empower organizations to embrace GenAI tools while securing data across endpoints, cloud, GenAI, and SaaS environments.

Consider two scenarios. In one, a marketing manager uses their personal cloud storage to share a large file, bypassing the slow corporate system to meet a tight deadline. In another, a sales executive uses the company-approved CRM to download the entire client list before joining a competitor. Both actions create significant risk, but they are not the same problem. The first is a classic case of shadow IT, often driven by a desire for efficiency.

In cybersecurity, several related but divergent meanings have been ascribed to the phrase “red flags.” The phrase has roots in fraud and insurance, popularized by the FTC as part of the 2003 Red Flags Rule under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act requiring credit issuers to build programs that detect identity theft via warning signs of fraud.

On September 18, 2025, an Analysis Report was issued by CISA that details information about two sets of malware it obtained from an organization that was compromised during May 2025. To gain initial access, the threat actors chained together known vulnerabilities outlined in CVE-2025-4427 and CVE-2025-4428 in Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (Ivanti EPMM) before deploying the malware, which allowed them to achieve remote code execution (RCE).

As AI transforms software development, AppSec teams face new complexities. For instance, the lack of visibility into where AI is being used and the reality that AI-generated code is often highly vulnerable make it nearly impossible to prioritize remediation and effectively scale security programs. To succeed, AppSec teams have to evolve from task managers to strategic governance enforcers.

Exposure management doesn’t end when you discover and prioritize vulnerabilities. The real measure of success is whether you’ve effectively remediated those exposures. Too often, security teams identify risks but struggle to see them resolved because remediation processes aren’t aligned across people, tools, and workflows. Exposure remediation best practices address this gap, ensuring that insights lead to action and that action drives measurable risk reduction.
