For remote work and hybrid working environments where we are now more dispersed the central collection point for traffic captures is within the cloud. Networking, infrastructure and operations, and security teams require traffic visibility for troubleshooting, performance monitoring, threat detection, discovery of assets, and to address compliance use cases.

We’re currently seeing a concerted effort from malicious actors to attack the supply chain through intentionally malicious packages. Our recent research shows a 315 percent rise in the publication of malicious packages to open source registries such as npm and RubyGems between 2021 and the end of Q3, 2022; about 85 percent of those packages stole credentials. This trend requires an urgent shift from detection to prevention.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT) are two of the most talked about technologies in the recent years. AI refers to the ability of machines to learn and make decisions without human intervention. IoT, on the other hand, is a network of devices that are connected to the internet and can communicate with each other. The combination of these two technologies, known as AIoT, has the potential to revolutionise the way we live and work.

XLoader macOS variant poses as a productivity app, Lazarus Group uses new malware, and threat actors abuse Facebook promotions to spread malicious code.

Cyber threats are like microbes: They’re constantly evolving, and the defenses that worked against them yesterday may no longer work today. Just as a vaccine crafted for an earlier iteration of a virus may not be effective anymore, the cybersecurity tools and processes that shut down risks in the past might not be enough to keep your business safe today. That’s why Continuous Threat Exposure Management, or CTEM, is a critical component of any cybersecurity strategy.

Are you ready to build digital resiliency with your secure application delivery in a hybrid cloud environment? According to Gartner analysts, more than 85 percent of organizations will embrace a cloud-first principle by 2025 and will not be able to fully execute on their digital strategies without the use of cloud-native architectures and technologies.

Containerization is the most popular approach for all modern cloud deployment. This technology makes it possible to encapsulate application workloads as OS-agnostic containers. The result is a new breed of cloud-native applications running across any infrastructure, scaling up or down based on demand. Consequently, there is a need to orchestrate these containers to deliver maximum efficiency in workload execution.

The Biden Administration has recently announced the implementation of a cybersecurity labeling program for smart devices. Overseen by the Federal Communication Commission (FCC), this new program seeks to address the security of Internet of Things (IoT) devices nationwide. This announcement is in response to an increasing number of smart devices that fall victim to hackers and malware (AP News).
