In a world where cyber espionage has become as common as a rainy day in London, the recent events surrounding the UK armed forces' payroll database have had us all raising our eyebrows higher than a butler's in a posh British drama. The plot twists in the world of cybersecurity often reminds me of a Bond film, albeit with fewer martinis and more malware.

This month's product updates and enhancements rollup includes Egnyte for MS Teams - Drag and Drop functionality, enhancements to the Document Room Portal, and user management on the Android mobile app. Please visit the articles linked below for more details.

Cyber threats pose a significant risk to virtualized infrastructure. According to the latest Rubrik Zero Labs report, 83% of encrypted data across all industries is within a virtualized architecture. Virtualized architectures typically have less security coverage than traditional endpoints. This creates security dead spots and consequently allows attackers unfettered access.

Ever wondered how to conduct security audits without wasting time? Security audits are crucial for protecting your business from threats. But they often feel like they take forever. The process can be overwhelming, especially if you’re trying to be thorough without sacrificing too much time. Luckily, it doesn’t have to be this way.

A high-severity remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability has been found in OpenSSH’s server (CVE-2024-6387) by the research team of Qualys. This issue is especially concerning because it brings back a problem that was originally fixed in 2006, showing that one of the most popular secure software still has hidden bugs. This discovery follows another major vulnerability found in the XZ Utils library just a few months ago, highlighting ongoing security challenges.

Cybersecurity frameworks are blueprints for security programs. Typically developed by governmental organizations, industry groups, or international bodies, they take the guesswork out of developing defense strategies, providing organizations with standards, guidelines, and best practices to help them manage and reduce their cybersecurity risks.

Containerization has revolutionized application development, deployment, and management – and for good reason. The ability to automatically wrap an application and its dependencies into a single, easily deployable package helps developers focus on what they do best: writing code.

In today’s connected world, many organizations’ “keys to the kingdom” are held in identity and access management (IAM) solutions; these play a crucial role in protecting organizations’ assets. In this post, we delve into the world of Keycloak, a popular open-source IAM solution. As part of our work at CyberArk Labs, we research open-source projects and look for security issues so we can share our findings with the open-source and security communities.

Imagine standing in your favorite ice cream parlor, gazing at myriad flavors chilling behind the counter. The choices are tantalizing, from traditional vanilla and chocolate to a swirl of the two. Ice cream flavors have evolved from these bases into cookies and cream, mint chocolate chip, Neapolitan, birthday cake, Rocky Road, butter pecan and coffee – you get the picture. Ice cream is a lot like privileged access management (PAM) solutions.
