The industry consensus today is that the only way to reliably end the threat of ransomware for good is to stop paying ransoms. Some have even gone so far as to suggest that they should be banned altogether. But because of a lack of public knowledge and transparency, it’s almost impossible to know the full scale of the problem to understand the right solution.

Black Hat USA is one of the industry’s oldest and most well-established security events. Last year, the conference was held virtually for the first time in its history. This year’s conference brought together the best of both worlds, with a hybrid event that was held virtually and in person in Las Vegas. Historically, Black Hat has seen about 20,000 attendees at its in-person conference.

Suppose you’ve been working with container images for more than a minute. In that case, you’re probably familiar with those ubiquitous documents that describe, layer-by-layer, the steps needed to construct an image: Dockerfiles. Did you know that there is a growing set of tools for building OCI compliant images without Dockerfiles?

With an increasing overflow of threats and attacks on mobile apps, businesses are now more concerned than ever about making their apps safe and secure for their users. Even the apps which were deemed to be secure and impenetrable are now being crept into with severe vulnerabilities. And this is why there is a huge priority shift happening across the globe towards mobile app security. According to Gartner , the global market for information security is expected to cross a market cap of$170.4 billion.

Our Crowdsource ethical hacker community has been busy sending us security updates, including 0-day research. Due to confidentially agreements, we cannot publicize all security update releases here but they are immediately added to our scanner and available to all users.

Every breach starts as a compromise that goes unnoticed and unactioned, often because existing security devices have too many events, too little context and cannot prioritize. Providing these systems with threat intelligence is the lowest cost and most effective way to improve contextualization and blocking of new attacks.
