Since the Domain Name System (DNS) protocol is foundational for internet functionality, DNS traffic is allowed to move through firewalls without much scrutiny unlike HTTPS, FTP and SMTP. Malicious actors have successfully been able to exploit this advantage to transfer data between networks, which is beyond the original intention of DNS protocol.

Since its launch in 2010, Microsoft Azure has been deployed to millions of organizations worldwide. Azure offers a vast array of services, including virtual machines, databases, AI and machine learning tools, analytics, networking, and storage options. Due to the global popularity of these cloud services, Keeper Security has prioritized seamless integration with Microsoft Azure.

As software systems become more intricate and the use of third-party components increases, the security risks within the software supply chain also escalate. To combat these risks, organizations are turning to the Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) as a valuable tool. This blog will guide you through the concept of SBOM and its impact on software supply chain security.

If your organization uses Microsoft Teams, then you definitely want to hear about a new way bad actors are exploiting this newly discovered cyber attack tool. "TeamsPhisher," a new tool recently discovered on GitHub, gives cybercriminals a new way to deliver malicious files directly to any Teams user. The genesis of this new cyber attack tool was published by the US Navy Red Team due to a recently discovered vulnerability in Microsoft Teams.

An abnormally massive focus on business email compromise attacks in Europe has fueled an equally large growth in overall email attacks there, with the U.S. also seeing significant attack growth. We’ve seen a lot of recent reports looking back at 2022 to help provide insight into what to continue to expect this year. But new data from security analysts at Abnormal Security takes us well into June of this year, highlighting the problem of email-based attacks.

Apparently expanding efforts outside of Southeast Asian countries, this threat group’s known malware has shown up in a European healthcare facility, raising concerns for USB-based attacks. You’d think that literally no one uses USB drives anymore, making them a very improbable attack vector. And yet, the Camaro Dragon APT group has been tracked by security researchers at Check Point for well over a year, with them finding instances of attacks throughout all of last year and into this year.

As digital transformation picks up pace, companies are working with more vendors than ever. According to Gartner, 60% of organizations now work with more than 1,000 third-party vendors — including partners, sub-contractors, and suppliers. These third parties are essential to helping businesses grow and stay competitive, but third parties can also introduce unwanted cyber risk and overhead into the organization.

As everyone looks about, sirens begin to sound, creating a sense of urgency; they only have a split second to determine what to do next. The announcer repeats himself over the loudspeaker in short bursts... This is not a drill; report to your individual formations and proceed to the allocated zone by following the numbers on your squad leader's red cap. I take a breather and contemplate whether this is an evacuation. What underlying danger is entering our daily activities? 1…2….3….

The multiplicity of devices and the need to access network resources from anywhere has blurred the traditional security perimeter and extended it beyond the office, making endpoint security an essential pillar of a company's cybersecurity strategy. Both antivirus (AV) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions are designed to secure devices. However, these solutions provide very different levels of protection.
