New research shows that less malicious emails are getting past security scanners to the inbox, but also provides details about how phishing emails are becoming increasingly dangerous. So much of our training is centered around elevating the employee’s state of cyber awareness so that when they do come across that sketchy email or that too good to be true web page, they know better. But it’s only one part of a larger cybersecurity effort within an organization.

In recent years, the digital asset market has experienced both explosive growth and sobering setbacks. The collapse of FTX in November 2022 highlighted a significant vulnerability within the crypto ecosystem – the inherent counterparty risk that emerges when exchanges serve as both trading venues and custodians, roles traditionally held separately to protect market participants.

In the context of cloud security posture management (CSPM), custom controls are policies or rules that give security teams the flexibility to create and enforce policies. These are needed to manage posture, tailor compliance measures, and detect misconfigurations across infrastructures like Kubernetes, containers, and the cloud.

October 1st marks the start of Security Awareness Month. A global campaign launched two decades ago to improve cyber security awareness and equip people with the knowledge and resources they need to be secure online.
