Stranger Danger: Your Java Attack Surface Just Got Bigger

Building Java applications today means that we take a step further from writing code. We use open-source dependencies, create a Dockerfile to deploy containers to the cloud, and orchestrate this infrastructure with Kubernetes. Welcome, you're a cloud native application developer! As developers, our responsibility broadened, and more software means more software security concerns for us to address.

Unlock the Power of Automation: Vulnerability Management

We’ve spoken extensively about the importance of taking a data-driven approach to Vulnerability Management. In short the efficiency and effectiveness of vulnerability management processes depend heavily on inclusion of threat intelligence for both prioritization and response activities. At any given time, only a small fraction of existing vulnerabilities are actively exploited or exploitable.

3 Best Practices to Save Yourself Zero-Day Exploits

52% of attacks in 2021 began with a zero-day exploit. Here are 4 things you can do to make sure your organization is safe: Understand your attack surfaces from the outside. You need to understand how your external attack surface looks because that's how attackers break in. Have a patching program on hand. When a patch comes out from a software vendor, apply it as soon as possible. Then, rescan your entire attack surface to confirm that it’s applied properly. Build your network with resilience in mind.
