If you want to visualize how data flows across your connected applications, you can think back to that childhood game of Chutes and Ladders (also called Snakes and Ladders). As a kid, the board felt like a confusing grid that had the weirdest, seemingly arbitrary connections between blocks. In your modern digital environment, your Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) fulfill the same role that the ladders and chutes/snakes fulfilled, connecting disparate blocks across a larger whole.

Today, I’m honored to share that CyberArk has been named a Leader in the “2023 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Privileged Access Management.” This is the fifth time our company has been positioned as a Leader in this report.

Web cache poisoning is a cyber attack that wreaks havoc on unsuspecting websites. It exploits vulnerabilities by caching mechanisms that web servers, proxies, and content delivery networks (CDNs) use, compromising data integrity. Malicious actors can use cache poisoning to deliver malicious payloads, tamper with sensitive information, or redirect users to fraudulent websites. In this article, we’ll comprehensively explore web cache poisoning attacks and how they work.

Finding deeply hidden and unexpected vulnerabilities early in the development process is key. However, time to invest in proactive tests is limited. Prioritizing speed over security is common. Our new AI-assistant CI Spark closes this gap and enables both speed and security. CI Spark makes use of LLMs to automatically identify attack surfaces and to suggest test code. Tests generated by CI Spark work like a unit test that automatically generates thousands of test cases.

Organizations need to protect themselves from the risks of running their business over the internet and processing sensitive data in the cloud. The growth of SaaS applications, Shadow IT and work from anywhere have therefore driven a rapid adoption of cloud-delivered cybersecurity services. Gartner defined SSE as a collection of cloud-delivered security functions: SWG, CASB, DLP and ZTNA. SSE solutions help to move branch security to the cloud in a flexible, cost-effective and easy-to-manage way.

Every organization handles security differently, based on their needs and internal structure—but in some mid-sized and large companies, both the chief information officer (CIO) and the chief information security officer (CISO) are involved. This can set up a CIO vs. CISO standoff. Indeed, historically, the relationship between the CIO and CISO has been described as adversarial but ever-evolving.

It seems everyone is concerned about cybersecurity these days, and the investor community is no different. Shareholders are reading the headlines—ransomware attacks, data breaches, infrastructure disruptions—and they are wondering how these incidents could impact the companies that they invest in. Shareholders are about to get a lot more information from companies in the months ahead. In July 2023, the U.S.
