Two primary trends are reshaping the healthcare industry: First, healthcare experiences a high number of mergers and acquisitions (M&As), with affiliates frequently joining and exiting as contracts evolve. Second, staff turnover remains persistently high, largely driven by burnout among healthcare practitioners.

In Part 1 and Part 2 of the cloud app control blog series, we saw how SinaraTech, a mid-sized ecommerce company, used access control to block risky apps and login control to weed out unauthorized access to legit applications. But the danger wasn't over yet. The Security SOC team had one final piece that was missing from the cloud app control puzzle. Let's continue down the road to find that piece.

The history of computing is marked by sea change moments; those times when the world seems to shift into a new possibility space almost overnight. ENIAC. The personal computer. The World Wide Web. The smartphone. And now, AI. While the term “AI” has been applied to many new (or re-branded) services and products, the underlying technology that makes most of them feel like magic is the large language model (LLM).

Network Security Policy Management (NSPM) is the discipline of defining, enforcing, and maintaining the network policies that govern how systems communicate, what data moves where, and who can access what. It sits at the intersection of security and operations, helping organizations maintain consistent, enforceable rules across increasingly complex infrastructures.

You’ve probably seen a file like this sitting in your project root.

Earlier this month, Microsoft uncovered SesameOp, a new backdoor malware that abuses the OpenAI Assistants API as a covert command-and-control (C2) channel. The discovery has drawn significant attention within the cybersecurity community. Security teams can no longer focus solely on endpoint malware. Attackers are weaponizing public and legitimate AI assistant APIs and defenders must adjust.

Your manufacturing environment might be compliant, but that doesn't mean it's protected against a cyberattack. Even compliant systems can fall victim to cybercrime. And the consequences can be devastating. The SANS Institute sends a clear message in its 2025 State of ICS/OT Cybersecurity Survey: Regulatory compliance alone is no longer enough in operational technology (OT) environments.

Can you ever imagine the impact on your business if it went offline on Black Friday or Cyber Monday due to a cyberattack? Black Friday is the biggest day in the retail calendar. It’s also the riskiest. As you gear up for huge surges in online traffic, ask yourself: have you protected the APIs on which the business runs?

SAST (Static Application Security Testing) tools analyze an application’s source code to identify potential security vulnerabilities without executing the code. They are crucial for finding security flaws early in the development lifecycle, helping developers address issues before they become more costly and difficult to fix. Unlike dynamic analysis techniques, SAST operates without executing the program, focusing entirely on the static codebase.
