The cybersecurity landscape is constantly changing as new technologies and threat trends emerge. Maintaining an effective cybersecurity strategy over time requires updating tools and practices with the evolution of cyberattacks, security capabilities, and business operations. Implementing the best tools for the most pressing issues as they arise has been the predominant tactic for many organizations.

I’ve been working as an Application Security Auditor in Oupost24’s web application security testing team for almost three years now. Our team have shared several pieces of research over the past year, on topics including cross-site request forgery, cross-site scripting attacks, and weaponizing permissive Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) configurations.

In today’s digital environment, encrypted traffic has become the norm, with over 90% of web communications now utilizing encryption. While this secures data in transit, it has become a blind spot for enterprises, enabling attackers to hide malware within encrypted channels. According to the Q3 2024 Cato CTRL SASE Threat Report, organizations that enable TLS inspection block 52% more malicious traffic than organizations than don’t.

Today, we published the Q3 2024 Cato CTRL SASE Threat Report, which summarizes findings from Cato CTRL’s analysis of 1.46 trillion network flows across more than 2,500 customers globally between July and September 2024.

A critical authentication bypass vulnerability has been identified in the WordPress plugin Really Simple Security (formerly known as Really Simple SSL), affecting both its free and Pro versions.

IONIX today announced the release of our Cloud Exposure Validator, a tool designed to reduce cloud vulnerability management noise shifting focus to findings that represent the biggest threats. The Validator addresses the growing challenges organizations face in managing cloud security risks effectively. This blog post explains how.

Cybersecurity threats grow more sophisticated by the day. Amid this constant change, one truth remains: people are simultaneously our greatest security vulnerability and our strongest line of defense. It’s time to empower organizations with a new approach that minimizes human risk and maximizes protection.

Based on our reading, the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), is at a fundamental level, a transformative ICT challenge. DORA makes the speed and accuracy of security threat detection and response a board-level concern. Fail to stop, classify and report on cyber incidents accurately and, from 2025 onwards, your organisation could face a fine of 1% of global turnover.

Because cyber dangers are always changing, businesses are moving toward safer and more proactive ways to keep their data and networks safe. Zero Trust Security is one of these frameworks that is becoming more popular. It is based on the idea of "never trust, always verify." Zero Trust constantly checks and authorizes every user and device before letting them access sensitive data or systems. This is done instead of thinking that internal users or devices are reliable.
