Social media is both a boon and a bane. While it has connected billions of people, made them more accessible, and created more possibilities for the end-users. There's no doubt that it has also made them more susceptible to security threats and vulnerabilities. According to We Are Social, there are around 4.62 billion active social media users worldwide. This is precisely the very reason why cyber criminals love social media as well.
Proper management of the configuration of your infrastructure components is vital to security, compliance and business continuity. Unfortunately, configuration drift in systems and applications is common, which leaves the organization vulnerable to attack. Indeed, about 1 in 8 breaches result from errors such as misconfigured cloud environments, and security misconfiguration ranks #5 on the OWASP list of the top 10 web application security risks.

The attack surface is inevitably going to grow. That’s why we believe it’s crucial for customers to not only know what assets they are exposing online, but knowing to what extent assets are exposed on their attack surface. Previously, it wasn’t possible to filter the attack surface view by state (you can read more about state here). This limitation made it difficult to assess some Internet-facing assets, such as those that were resolving DNS records with no reachable IPs.
As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more and more prevalent in society, it is also making its way into the world of cyber security. AI can be used in a number of ways to help improve cyber security, including by automatically detecting and responding to threats, improving network efficiency, and helping to identify vulnerabilities. In this blog post, we will discuss some of the ways that AI is changing cyber security and how it can help your business stay safe online.
In cybersecurity, there has been a shift to adopt more software development principles in order to create security solutions quickly and reliably. Utilization of tools like Git and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CICD) pipelines have become more common to achieve reliable deployments. At Tines, while we strive to make automation accessible to anyone without development skills, our platform is also highly flexible to accommodate developer-centric uses.
Evidence is the currency cyber defenders use to pay down security debt, balancing the value equation between adversaries and the enterprise. Defenders can use evidence proactively, identifying and protecting structural risks within our zone of control. Evidence can also be used reactively by supporting detection (re)engineering, response, and recovery activities, guiding us back to identifying and protecting structural risks.
