There has been a lot of talk about Artificial Intelligence (AI) in recent years. It is certainly a polarizing subject. While it raises hopes about the future of technology and what humanity is capable of, it also raises questions around human control and technological determination. There are those who worry that Artificial Intelligence is going to ‘take people’s jobs’, or even take over the world, and that the world will end up like a dystopian ‘Terminator’ style film.

In a regulatory landscape where new national, vertical, or international regulations are published on what seems like a weekly basis, the European Commission’s NIS2 Directive stands out. This legislation, which applies to all organizations operating across the European Union, has provided legally binding measures which organizations must abide by in order to ‘boost the overall level of cybersecurity in the EU.’

Anastasios Stasinopoulos from OBRELA LABS Team discovered a security flaw that affects Apache Superset (before 3.0.4, from 3.1.0 before 3.1.1), an open-source modern data exploration and visualization platform. Apache Superset error handling can be manipulated in order to allow data retrieval from the backend database.

Cloud Monitoring is a crucial part of the security stack for many modern enterprises. More businesses have continued to shift their services and operational activity into the cloud in the form of Software (SaaS), Platform (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). They have done this for several reasons, including: This is taking place in both small- and large-scale enterprises. Threat actors have responded by targeting cloud services with increased frequency.

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our new website, a testament to Obrela’s commitment to excellence in the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity. As part of this commitment, we have revamped our website to provide you with an enhanced experience, making it easier for you to explore and discover more about our cutting-edge solutions.

In the arsenal of cyber security tools available to organizations, the penetration test is a key component. Business applications, and organization infrastructure (operating systems, databases, networks, etc.) all have potential vulnerabilities, many of which are just waiting for threat actors to exploit.

As 2021 draws to a close, it is safe to say the year has been a blockbuster for cybercrime. We have witnessed attacks on critical national infrastructure, which have impacted the supply of consumer commodities. We have seen law enforcement clamp down on cybercriminals, taking down some of the most ruthless operations that have wreaked havoc on organisations and consumers across the globe.

The following organizations should raise their INFOCON levels and be prepared for cyber-attacks because of this conflict: Our threat intelligence teams continue to enhance Obrela’s technology with new threat intel information as soon as it becomes available. We are conducting threat hunting activities to proactively detect and respond to emerging threats.
