Keeping a stress-free and thoughtful approach to cybersecurity requires implementing tactics that put security and wellbeing first. The following five cybersecurity techniques will help in striking the balance.

In an era where technology and transportation converge, the fusion of vehicles with IoT technologies heralds a new dawn of mobility. This leap forward promises enhanced connectivity and autonomous capabilities, yet casts a shadow of cyber vulnerabilities that could jeopardize not just the integrity of the vehicles but the safety of their passengers.

DeepCode AI Fix is an AI-powered feature that provides one-click, security-checked fixes within Snyk Code, a developer-focused, real-time SAST tool. Amongst the first semi-automated, in-IDE security fix features on the market, DeepCode AI Fix’s public beta was announced as part of Snyk Launch in April 2023. It delivered fixes to security issues detected by Snyk Code in real-time, in-line, and within the IDE.

A command injection vulnerability, being tracked as CVE-2024-3400, was recently discovered in the GlobalProtect feature of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software. This vulnerability has a CVSS score of 10 (Critical) and is actively being exploited in the wild. It impacts versions PAN-OS 120.2, PAN-OS 11.0 and PAN-OS 11.1. If exploited on vulnerable PAN-OS versions and distinct feature configurations, an unauthenticated attacker could execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the firewall.

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats, the recent breach by the notorious hacker group R00TK1T serves as a stark reminder of the vulnerabilities faced by even the most established organizations. As the Foresight Threat Team delves into the details of this alarming incident, it becomes imperative to shed light on the implications and lessons to be learned from this breach.

Despite being a globally accepted security measure, passwords have associated issues that have led to countless breaches and compromised systems over many years of not-so-secure authentication technology. Yet passwords remain the dominant form of authentication because more secure options have not been accessible to all users. Passwords have evolved into the security risk they are today because, as the security requirements for passwords have increased, usability has decreased.
