Software-in-the-loop (SiL) testing is a pivotal method in the software development lifecycle, especially for embedded systems and critical applications. By simulating real-world conditions and integrating software components within a controlled virtual environment, SiL allows for the early detection of bugs, ensuring higher code quality and reliability. Read on to learn how to introduce SiL testing in your project.

Managing dependencies isn’t always easy, but it’s critical for protecting your code. In this guide, we’ll explore what dependencies are and how they can be checked for known vulnerabilities, compatibility, licensing requirements, and more. We’ll then learn that dependency checks should be part of a dependency management strategy to keep applications up to date and reduce security risks and technical debt.

Of course, everyone wants to dominate the SERPs. It’s a no-brainer! Want to know one of my favorite ways to achieve better rankings? Yup, web scraping! Web scraping is particularly useful for SEO; not only is it very cheap, but it allows you to access hyper-specific data that sometimes is not even visible through SEMRush’s or Ahrefs’ databases. Keep in mind anyone can disallow these two bots (and any bot actually) via their robots.txt.

According to Vanta’s 2023 State of Trust Report, respondents spend an average of nine working weeks per year on security compliance. ‍ Some security teams have accepted that governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) will inevitably take tons of time and effort. And many continue to work towards small-scale efficiencies because they don’t believe anything better is possible. ‍ But there’s a better option for today’s businesses: GRC automation.

Encryption is a fundamental procedure in cybersecurity that transforms data into a coded format, making it inaccessible to unauthorized users. It has evolved significantly from simple ciphers in ancient times to complex algorithms like AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman), which are used today. Encryption ensures data confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity, which is crucial in protecting sensitive information across various domains.

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is a federal agency within the Department of Health and Human Services. The FDA is responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the control and supervision of medications, vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, medical devices, and other types of products. To ensure the safety and security of medical devices, the FDA supports a variety of standards and guidelines that medical device manufacturers are highly recommended to follow.

The SANS 2024 SOC Survey, a comprehensive new Torq-sponsored study, reveals that for the first time in decades, the tenure of SOC and Security Analysts is increasing. They’re choosing to remain at their posts for three-to-five years, up from an average of one-to-three years. Modern post-SOAR hyperautomation solutions are playing a significant role in alleviating the burdens these cybersecurity pros face.
