Cybersecurity experts continue to warn that advanced chatbots like ChatGPT are making it easier for cybercriminals to craft phishing emails with pristine spelling and grammar, the Guardian reports. Corey Thomas, CEO of Rapid7, stated, “Every hacker can now use AI that deals with all misspellings and poor grammar. The idea that you can rely on looking for bad grammar or spelling in order to spot a phishing attack is no longer the case.
Unless you have been living under a rock, you have probably heard of the SSO Wall of Shame. This is a list of vendors that treat single sign-on as a luxury feature, not a core security requirement. There have been numerous complaints regarding the companies that have made it onto this list, and rightfully so. In a downturn economy and in times when security and privacy are critical, many organizations see an opportunity to generate even more revenue.
Vulnerabilities are on the rise, and it's not just the number that's growing; the severity of these vulnerabilities is also increasing. Cybercriminals are taking advantage of these vulnerabilities to launch sophisticated attacks, leading to data breaches, ransomware, and other devastating cyber incidents.
Quantum computing is coming and it has the potential to be both exciting and terrifying… On today’s episode of Trust Issues, host David Puner speaks with cryptographer Dr. Erez Waisbard, CyberArk’s Technology and Research Lead, about quantum computing innovation and its cybersecurity implications – from data encryption to surveillance and privacy. Dr.
The world of cybersecurity is a never-ending battle, with malicious actors constantly devising new ways to exploit vulnerabilities and infiltrate networks. One such threat, causing headaches for security teams for over a decade, is the Qakbot Trojan, also known as Qbot. Qakbot has been used in malicious campaigns since 2007, and despite many attempts to stamp it out, continues to evolve and adapt in an attempt to evade detection.
Cloudflare has achieved a new EU Cloud Code of Conduct privacy validation, demonstrating GDPR compliance to strengthen trust in cloud services.
A Domain Name System (DNS) is a protocol that translates human-readable domain names/URLs—like favoritewebsite.com—into IP addresses that computers can read—like 135.24.56.98. DNS servers handle tens of thousands of queries that transfer minute bits of data between devices, systems, and servers—which makes DNS an attractive and easily exploitable vector for hackers (Cloudns.net).
Last month, Lead Partner Solutions Architect, David Schott, presented a demo on how Snyk works alongside Amazon Web Services (AWS) to identify vulnerabilities at every level of development and infrastructure. David covered why agile development in the cloud requires a different security approach than simply using the IT security methods of the past. Then, he showed a real-time example of how Snyk’s AWS cloud security tools can find and mitigate common vulnerabilities.
