Back in 2022 while browsing through lists of recently disclosed vulnerabilities, I happened upon some Adobe Commerce/Magento Open Source vulnerabilities , that were reported to be exploited in the wild and can be exploited to achieve remote code execution, a combination which always motivates me to take a quick look at the vulnerability.
Welcome to our guide on SOC 2 compliance! We’ll cover everything you need to know about SOC 2, including its key principles, types of reports, the preparation & audit processes, costs, and best practices. Let’s get started!
In 2023, India’s Aadhaar system has become a critical component of the country’s financial infrastructure. With over 1.3 billion registered users, Aadhaar has enabled a range of digital services that were previously impossible, including eKYC (electronic know-your-customer) for financial institutions. In this blog, we’ll explore the benefits of Aadhaar eKYC for businesses and consumers alike.
Today’s software developers are tasked with a lot more than just coding. To keep up with the fast-paced software-driven economy, they need to focus on automation, collaboration, security, distribution, data analysis, and agility to ensure quality builds and get releases to customers quickly and securely. DevOps and security professionals need a centralized system of records that provides visibility across the business.
Software developers build approximately 80% of software applications using open-source code, which opens up a world of opportunity for today’s threat actors. Code package repositories such as npm and RubyGems allow anyone to store or publish packages, and unfortunately that can include packages containing malware. These are known as malicious packages — the malware of the software supply chain. As the name implies, a malicious package is software that is created with malicious intent.
Remote workforces need network detection and response tools (NDR), but deploying an NDR that works with remote and hybrid environments is another story. Most NDRs are designed for on-premises networks. Unfortunately, that couldn’t be further from what the typical modern environment looks like.
The U.S. government created a new office to block disinformation. The new Foreign Malign Influence Center (FMIC) oversees efforts that span U.S. military, law enforcement, intelligence, and diplomatic agencies. The FMIC was established on September 23 of last year after Congress approved funding, and is situated within the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. The FMIC has the unique authority to marshal support from all elements of the U.S.
The evidence is clear – there is nothing most people and organizations can do to vastly lower cybersecurity risk than to mitigate social engineering attacks. Social engineering is involved in 70%-90% of all successful attacks. No other root cause of initial breach comes close (unpatched software is involved in 20% to 40% of attacks and everything else is in the single digits). Every person and organization should create their best possible defense-in-depth plan to fight social engineering.
Nightfall’s Cloud DLP platform helps you limit access to sensitive data, by protecting the data where it is stored. With Nightfall you can redact, delete attachments, or make the data private in one click or via automated actions.
Over the past twenty years, security information and event management (SIEM) platforms have been one of the key solutions for cybersecurity management, as they help security teams centralize attack and threat detection activities. The cybersecurity industry is now shifting towards a new type of solution known as extended detection and response (XDR). As the two technologies are similar and have overlapping capabilities, many people still don’t know how they differ.
