Snyk’s goal has always been to empower developers to build fast but safely. This is why we created the developer security category and why we were amongst the first advocates of “shifting left.” Now, AI has changed the equation. According to Gartner, over 80% of enterprises will have used generative AI APIs or models, or deployed their own AI model, by 2026.

If you’ve been keeping up with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), you’ll know it has a new specification that revolves around network security controls. Let’s dig into the details.

Level up to Elastic’s AI-driven security analytics, now with incentives to ease and accelerate your SIEM migration The SIEM is evolving again. Traditional SIEM solutions will be displaced in modern security operations centers (SOCs) by AI-driven security analytics, which uses the power of Search AI to replace largely manual SOC processes with automation.

Running tests against your security controls and other systems is a critical aspect of protecting your organization from a potential data breach and ensuring that you maintain compliance. Vanta’s platform has automated tests with continuous monitoring that run on an hourly basis against your controls as well as customized tests that you can adapt to your organization's needs.

Organizations face a myriad of cybersecurity threats that can compromise sensitive data and disrupt operations. A cornerstone of defending against these threats is an effective vulnerability management program. This program’s first, and arguably most critical, step is strong asset and inventory management. A thorough and accurate asset inventory is essential for identifying and mitigating vulnerabilities.

Downgrade attacks—also known as version-rollback attacks—are a type of attack designed to revert an immune, fully up-to-date software back to an older version. They allow malicious actors to expose and exploit previously fixed/patched vulnerabilities to compromise systems and gain unauthorized access.

The months leading up to audits can be some of the most stressful for security and privacy teams. Some audits can take up to 9 months to prepare for and another 3 months to complete, with security and privacy teams spearheading the evidence collection. Collecting evidence used to be a walk in the park, but that was before multi-cloud environments, new standards, and emerging regional privacy requirements.

In a notable development in the cybersecurity landscape, the emerging threat group known as Hunters International has added a novel remote access Trojan (RAT) to its arsenal. This group, which has quickly ascended the ranks of ransomware operators, is using the RAT, dubbed SharpRhino, to target IT professionals. Disguised as a legitimate network administration tool, SharpRhino facilitates initial access and persistence on targeted networks, setting the stage for ransomware attacks.
