Recent research from CyberArk Labs presents a new technique for extracting sensitive data from the Chromium browser’s memory. However, existing access to the targeted system is required before leveraging the technique to extract the sensitive data. The technique could enable identity-based attacks involving authentication bypass using Oauth cookies that have already passed an MFA challenge.

People commonly think that any “Internet Connection” is exactly the same, or they may be vaguely aware that some connections are faster than others. However, there are significant differences between the connections. While these differences may not matter to someone who just wants to browse websites and read email, they can be significant or even showstoppers for more advanced users or s. This is especially true for anyone looking to do security testing or vulnerability scanning.

This blog is the final part of a series about secure access to Amazon RDS. In Part 1, we covered how to use OSS Teleport as an identity-aware access proxy to access Amazon RDS instances running in private subnets. Part 2 explained implementing single sign-on (SSO) for Amazon RDS access using Okta and Teleport. Part 3 showed how to configure Teleport access requests to enable just-in-time access requests for Amazon RDS access.

From small school districts and not-for-profit organizations with limited cyber defense budgets to major Fortune 500 companies with sophisticated cyber defense teams, understanding what to do in the first 48 hours following a significant cyber event is essential in protecting your organization and limiting the potential damage.

The cloud has enabled organizations to build and deploy applications faster than ever, but security has become more complex. The shift to cloud has created a world where everything is code — not just the applications, but also the infrastructure they run on. So, any security issue within an application or cloud environment can put an entire system at risk. And keeping that cloud native application stack secure is increasingly the responsibility of development teams.

More than a third of organizations suffered a serious cloud security incident in 2021. According to a survey of 300 cloud professionals covered by BetaNews, 36% of those respondents said that their organizations had suffered a severe cloud security data leak or breach in the past 12 months. Looking forward, eight in 10 survey participants said they were worried that they were vulnerable to a data breach related to a cloud misconfiguration.

In November of 2021, President Joe Biden signed the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) which authorizes a plan to invest $1.2 trillion into the nation's infrastructure. This bipartisan infrastructure bill plans to bolster the transportation, energy, water, utility sectors, and state and local governments. An important provision within the IIJA is the allocation of $2 billion towards enhancing the cybersecurity of government organizations.

When a breach occurs, time is of the essence. The decisions you make about whom to collaborate with and how to respond will determine how much impact the incident is going to have on your business operations.
