National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCSAM), held every October, highlights a key theme each year. For 2022, the theme is: “See Yourself in Cyber.” Cybersecurity is more than a set of principles or tools—people are a major component, helping keep businesses safe by complying with multi-factor authentication, using strong passwords, keeping devices updated with the latest software, not installing unapproved software on devices, and reporting phishing.
We’ve been watching the global transition to an app-driven world for some time now, as companies develop and deploy innovative software at warp speed. And we’ve also watched application security teams struggle to keep up. Many try to use yesterday’s tools for today’s AppSec reality, while others wrestle with immature application security programs. And that’s when we realized: modern application security programs are different. They run on CODEfidence. Let me explain.
Strong data loss prevention requires two things: a strong policy that guides user actions and permissions, and the tools to monitor and manage data security. Many organizations know they need to invest in software, platforms, and other security settings to create secure networks, endpoints, and cloud settings.

This series is aimed at helping developers create secure infrastructure for modern, cloud-native applications.
Recently, Bulletproof’s pen testers participated in the Hack the Box Business CTF 2022 competition. This was a global InfoSec contest that pitted cyber security teams against one another in a series of hacking challenges, based on real-world vulnerabilities. There were 8 categories which included challenges of varying skill levels for teams to apply their hacking expertise to ‘capture the flag’.
Trustwave security teams are aware of two zero-day vulnerabilities (CVE-2022-41040 and CVE-2022-41082) impacting Microsoft Exchange Server 2013, 2016, and 2019 and organizations with Outlook Web Access facing the Internet. If exploited, the vulnerabilities can allow an attacker to elevate privilege and remote code execution capability. We immediately investigated the vulnerabilities and potential exploits and continue to monitor the situation.
