GitGuardian and GuidePoint Security have partnered to deliver enhanced secrets detection and non-human identity security solutions to North American customers, offering tools to combat secrets sprawl and mismanaged identities.

In today's rapidly evolving threat landscape, cybercriminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated in their attack methodologies, particularly when it comes to email-based threats. Organizations worldwide are recognizing that a single-vendor approach to security, while valuable, may not provide the comprehensive protection needed to defend against the full spectrum of modern cyber threats.

In cybersecurity, understanding an adversary’s identity, capabilities, and intent is critical to intelligent cyber defense. Attribution matters. Despite cyber threat intelligence tracking a multitude of threat actors for many decades, accurately attributing malicious activity continues to be difficult. Vendors and researchers often see different parts of the same puzzle — or entirely different puzzles — due to differences in telemetry.

Enterprises today operate in a hyper-distributed environment where users, devices, applications, and workloads are no longer confined within traditional corporate boundaries. Whether you’re working with remote employees, branch offices, SaaS, IaaS, or non-human form factors like robots and AI workloads, everything must securely and reliably connect to everything else, along with unified policy enforcement.

This collaboration brings GitGuardian's expertise in secrets detection and non-human identity protection to the oil and natural energy sector, addressing unique challenges in operational technology environments.

Fireblocks is now working with Calastone, the largest global funds network, to support Web3 connectivity within Calastone’s Tokenised Distribution solution, a first-of-its-kind solution enabling asset managers to tokenise any fund on Calastone’s network and distribute it across blockchains such as Ethereum and Polygon. Fireblocks is providing secure infrastructure components that enable integration with Web3-native distributors.

The increasing reliance on open-source software coupled with the accelerated pace of software development has created a growing need for support of deprecated packages. The significant majority of open-source software packages are not actively maintained, meaning vulnerabilities are not patched, thereby leaving systems open to attack. Malicious actors often target deprecated open-source packages for this very reason.
