How to Automate Repository Backups to Minimize Data Loss and Downtime

Oct 5, 2026 By Łukasz Dydek In GitProtect
In modern CI/CD pipelines, source code moves fast, and repository state changes constantly. Manual backups are inherently fragmented, error-prone, and incapable of capturing platform metadata at scale. To prevent critical data loss and ensure rapid failover, engineering teams must automate their repository backups.

Threat Actors Abuse Trusted Accounts and Internal Tools to Launch Convincing BEC Attacks

Oct 5, 2026 By KnowBe4 Team In KnowBe4
Attackers are continually finding new ways to refine business email compromise (BEC) attacks, according to Douglas McKee, Director of Vulnerability Intelligence at Rapid7. When attackers compromise trusted tools and accounts, they can manipulate victims’ view of reality. One way attackers can achieve this is through what McKee calls “calendar warfare,” in which attackers use calendar meetings to trick users into falling for attacks.

[Cybersecurity Awareness Month] Cyber Espionage: When the Attacker's Best Asset Is You

Oct 5, 2026 By Erich Kron In KnowBe4
Spies have always relied on technology, disguises, secret communications and clever gadgets, at least if the movies are to be believed. But some of the most effective tools in the espionage business have always been people. Convince the right person to open a door, reveal a secret or trust someone they should not, and suddenly bypassing the sophisticated security system becomes unnecessary.

The Egnyte + Procore Integration: Connecting Project Execution with Construction Knowledge

Oct 5, 2026 By Joëlle Colosi In Egnyte
Construction firms rely on purpose-built platforms like Procore to coordinate RFIs and submittals, document field activity, track progress, and keep projects on schedule. But managing project execution is only one part of the information lifecycle—teams need a way to capture and connect project information across departments, applications, partners, and project phases.

Convergence of ITDR, PAM and IGA. Which of the three is standing there when the attack lands?

Oct 5, 2026 By Tatiana Severina In Netwrix
Our 2026 Identity and Data Security Report put compromised identity ahead of misconfigured permissions as the leading route to unauthorized access, 41.8% against 33.9%. If identity is the way in, the controls around identity belong together, and that's the reasoning behind most of the consolidation we've seen over the past few years. But how is the work split up?

Insider risk starts with who can read the data

Oct 5, 2026 By Dan Piazza In Netwrix
Insider risk is often framed as an external attacker problem, but a real blind spot sits closer to home: who inside your own security stack can open sensitive files they never needed to see. Classification tools that require broad scanning access often hand that same access to every admin who configures them, turning the tool meant to reduce exposure into another path to it. The people with the least oversight, your own admins, can end up with the most unchecked visibility into regulated data.

Rethinking identity security in the agentic AI age

Oct 5, 2026 By Robert Kraczek In One Identity
Identity security conversations often arrive at the same unfortunate scenario: a stolen token and breach only discovered once major damage is done. Experts Rob Kraczek, global strategist at One Identity, and Chris Ray, field CTO of security and risk at GigaOm, recently unpacked why 3 a.m. token theft has become less exception, more routine — among other things.

A Simpler Way We Release and Support Every Product

Oct 5, 2026 By One Identity In One Identity
A plain-language look at our new release and support policy — and what it means for you, no matter which product you run. For customers and partners, release and support practices have not always been easy to interpret. Different products used different terms for similar things — major and minor releases, patch releases, hotfixes — which made it hard to know which release to adopt, how long it would be supported, or whether a given update added functionality or only fixed something.

Introducing LimaCharlie Email Security: One Phish, Start to Finish

Oct 5, 2026 By LimaCharlie In LimaCharlie
Introducing LimaCharlie Email Security. It connects to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace through the provider's API, with no MX change and nothing in the delivery path, and shows the signals behind its verdicts. This walkthrough follows one malicious email from its 94/100 verdict through how the score compounds, a benign contrast with its measured processing timeline, the evidence, link analysis, response at the provider, hunting across the organization, groups and campaigns, user reports, the rule that caught it, policy, and email as telemetry for detection and response rules.
