Reducing complexity and providing insight into software risk, consolidation is the wave of the application security testing future. As the convergence of economic and practical factors increases pressure on organizations to streamline their application security (AppSec) initiatives, consolidation is emerging as a practical solution.

With the rapid adoption of Kubernetes in organizations and the push to standardize the orchestration of resources with this approach, databases are now also being deployed into Kubernetes. Historically, persistent workloads like databases were not recommended for their deployment into Kuberntes as it was complex to manage how data would be stored. This was a result of Kubertnes originally being designed for non persistent microservice architectures.

A big part of 1Password’s mission is to make it both easier and safer for you to get things done every day, whether you’re at home or at work.

A zero-day attack takes advantage of a weakness in a target’s network, software, or infrastructure—without the target even knowing. These type of cyber attacks can be devastating because the attack will continue unimpeded until it’s eventually spotted (that’s if it’s spotted at all). This article shines a spotlight on the danger. We define the features of zero-day incidents and consider some famous case studies.

Advanced Medical Management is a technical and healthcare management service that offers administrative and technical support to healthcare companies. The provider works with large-scale companies and their data in the process. It was alarming to learn the company suffered from a recent data breach, making its information available to individuals that shouldn't have it.

Are you considering whether cyber insurance is worth it for your organization? It could be. With the rise in ransomware, DDoS attacks and data breaches, cyber insurance is being used as a way for companies to protect themselves as they realize risks in their business. However, many insurers are now excluding ransomware1 and state-backed attacks2 from their coverage. So, how can you determine whether cyber insurance is worth it?

While Gen AI tools are useful conduits for creativity, security teams know that they’re not without risk. At worst, employees will leak sensitive company data in prompts to chatbots like ChatGPT. At best, attack surfaces will expand, requiring more security resources in a time when businesses are already looking to consolidate. How are security teams planning to tackle the daunting workload? According to a recent Morgan Stanley report, top CIOs and CISOs are also turning to AI.

Session management security is an essential component of web application development. It safeguards user sessions and prevents unauthorized access. Managing sessions secures the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive user data. It also protects user privacy at large — which is essential to maintaining user trust in an application. When we manage sessions securely, we establish processes to destroy session tokens when users log out or their session ends.

Cyber risk trends are constantly evolving, driven by the pace of technological advancements that streamline business processes yet can introduce vulnerabilities in your company’s attack surface. With increased use of SaaS, cloud solutions, APIs, and third-party services, companies have many exposed and connected internet-facing assets that they’re unaware of, providing an open door for attackers to exploit.

Imagine the following scenario. A developer is alerted by an AI-powered application security testing solution about a severe security vulnerability in the most recent code version. Without concern, the developer opens a special application view that highlights the vulnerable code section alongside a display of an AI-based code fix recommendation, with a clear explanation of the corresponding code changes.
