Why One-Time Vulnerability Scans Aren't Enough

Why One-Time Vulnerability Scans Aren't Enough

Jan 15, 2026 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
A single vulnerability scan provides a tempting snapshot of security health. Too many companies rely on such periodic checks for compliance and some semblance of risk assessment. This, however, leads to an extremely dangerous illusion of security. Modern digital environments, as well as threat actors, move at speeds that are much too high for a static, point-in-time evaluation. Treating cybersecurity as an exercise in box-ticking leaves gaps that adversaries can use.

Supply Chain Security-4 Weak Spots Worth Fixing Now, Not Later

Jan 9, 2026 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
Supply chains are marvels of coordination, but they are also deeply human creations, which means assumptions sneak in, shortcuts feel sensible, and comfort zones harden over time. The smartest organizations are not the most paranoid ones. They are the most curious. They ask where things might wobble, not because they expect disaster, but because they respect complexity. The four vulnerabilities below are common, understandable, and manageable, which is precisely why they deserve attention now, while choices are still choices and not apologies.

Why Traditional Threat Detection Is Failing Security Teams

Jan 7, 2026 By Fidelis Security In Fidelis Security
As attack surfaces continue to expand, many security teams are finding that traditional detection methods can’t keep up. In this clip, the discussion centers on why legacy security tools struggle in modern environments — from the growing complexity of networks to the sheer volume of alerts teams are expected to investigate. When alerts are handled manually and without sufficient context, it becomes difficult to understand which threats are most critical and how quickly to respond.

Behavioral Threat Detection: Identifying Attacks That Blend into Normal Activity

Jan 6, 2026 By SafeAeon Inc. In SafeAeon
Some attacks are easy to spot. Others aren’t. In many cases, nothing obviously breaks or crashes, and no malware ever shows up. Nothing looks wrong at first. Access appears normal, and systems continue to run as usual. Modern attacks are challenging to detect because attackers often use the same tools and access paths as legitimate users. In addition, attackers remain low-key and use access that appears normal.

Best threat detection & response solutions for cloud-native applications in 2026

Jan 4, 2026 By Jonathan Kaftzan In ARMO
What is the best Threat Detection & Response for cloud-native applications? Traditional EDR isn’t enough for Kubernetes enviorments. Security teams need CADR (Cloud Application Detection and Response), which unifies application, container, Kubernetes, and cloud detection into a single platform that builds complete attack stories instead of siloed alerts. Why doesn’t traditional EDR work for Cloud-Native Applications?

Episode 5 - Detecting DNS Covert Channels in the Wild (Part 1)

Jan 1, 2026 By Corelight In Corelight
In Episode 5 of Corelight Defenders, I, Richard Bejtlich, engage with Corelight's co-founder and chief scientist, Vern Paxson, to delve into the intricate world of DNS covert channels. We explore how adversaries exploit DNS lookups to silently communicate within tightly controlled enterprise environments. Vern explains various methods attackers may use, from encoding data in seemingly benign domain names to manipulating the timing of requests. Our discussion highlights the challenges of detecting these covert channels, especially in the presence of network monitoring.
