Today’s risk environment is constantly evolving as threat actors exploit the complexity of modern software. That's why it's crucial to prioritize security throughout the entire application lifecycle, from beginning to end. However, many software teams only start thinking about security when application development is well underway.

Cloud adoption continues to accelerate across organizations of all sectors, sizes, and geographies. Its growth can be linked to a multitude of short- and long-term factors, from the more recent surge in generative AI (GenAI)-enabled applications at scale to the ongoing rise in data volume. At its core, however, the sustained popularity of cloud computing comes down to one thing: value.

An enterprise browser (EB) on its own provides a secure managed environment on unmanaged devices and BYOD for web access to company applications and resources. However, alone as an island, EB often lacks TLS traffic inspection and the ability to provide data security and DLP controls.

We’re excited to announce that Kubescape has officially entered the CNCF Incubating stage! This achievement marks a huge step for the project. The 2021 idea, devised by Ben Hirschberg, ARMO CTO and Co-founder, to create a simple tool for scanning Kubernetes clusters against NSA-CISA hardening guidelines, has since developed, expanded, improved and matured. Kubescape is now a robust, full-fledged security platform, all thanks to the amazing support from the Kubescape community and CNCF.

CWE, or Common Weakness Enumeration 73, occurs when an unauthorized user gains external access to control a file in your system. CWE provides a standardized language and classification system to help identify, understand, and mitigate vulnerabilities in software and systems. External Control of Filename or Path is a vulnerability that occurs when an application allows an external entity to influence the selection of a file or directory location within the system.

One of the most serious risks that companies now must deal with is cyber espionage, when criminals use advanced methods to steal confidential data. In contrast to conventional cyberattacks, it frequently targets trade secrets, intellectual property, and private company information and is covert, persistent, and state-sponsored. An IBM analysis states that the average cost of a data breach in 2023 was $4.45 million, with its contributing significantly to these monetary losses.

Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management is leading the charge in the fast-paced evolution of cloud security. The complexity of controlling user access and permissions increases as businesses grow their cloud environments. Traditional identity and access management (IAM) systems find it difficult to adapt to cloud infrastructure's constant changes. Security issues including insider attacks, misconfigurations, and over privileged accounts are brought on by this gap.

The traditional perception of security within an organization is as a barrier rather than a facilitator, imposing approval processes and regulations that inevitably slow down operations. In this blog post, along with our friends at Knowit Experience, we explore how a new mindset keeps growing. One that embraces security as an enabler and a business value contributor.

As the world of infrastructure security grows more complex, maintaining clarity and precision in how we present our solutions is critical. Teleport’s platform's capabilities have expanded significantly over time. To better align with our mission and help customers understand the full potential of our platform, we are introducing new names for our product suite.
