Network hardening involves implementing measures such as configuring firewalls, securing remote access points, blocking unused network ports, removing unnecessary protocols, implementing access lists, and encrypting network traffic to mitigate unauthorized access and bolster the security of a network’s infrastructure. This process involves identifying and addressing vulnerabilities in device management and configurations to prevent exploitation by malicious actors aiming to infiltrate the network.

In today's fast-paced world dominated by AI, BoxyHQ stands at the forefront of innovation. Originally focused on developing security building blocks for developers, our journey has led us to confront the challenges of responsible AI interaction and data protection in the face of AI proliferation. Imagine a world where AI isn't just a tool but an integral part of daily life. Every decision and every interaction is shaped by algorithms and machine learning models.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) is a security vulnerability that allows an attacker to inject malicious code into a web page viewed by other users, usually in a script. When other users view the compromised page, the injected code can execute and steal sensitive information or perform malicious actions on their behalf. This attack typically targets web applications that allow user-generated content or input, such as message boards, comment sections, or search boxes.

Highlights from the largest ever BSidesSF, which brought cybersecurity professionals together to face the new issues AI brings, advanced threat actors, and scaling security.

Enterprise attack surface expansion has become a focal point for IT security teams. The relentless pursuit of securing every endpoint and countering new threats with the latest technology is not just costly; it's also unsustainable. Despite these efforts, breaches continue to occur, often through new or unorthodox attack vectors that bypass traditional perimeter defenses.

Negligent or malicious behavior by those who have legitimate access to your systems can be more devastating to your company than the efforts of outside attackers. The 2023 Cost of Insider Risk Global Report by the Ponemon Institute shows that cybersecurity incidents caused by insiders through negligence, credential theft, and malicious intent had an average cost per incident of $505,113, $679,621, and $701,500, respectively.

In this episode of the Trust Issues podcast, host David Puner interviews CyberArk Founder and Executive Chairman Udi Mokady on the occasion of the company’s 25th anniversary. They discuss that milestone and reflect on CyberArk’s growth to becoming the global leader in identity security and the ever-evolving threat landscape – and how the company has scaled to meet it. Udi shares his insights on the company’s culture, values, philosophies and lessons he has learned.

Empowering Citizen Developers: Using Zenity’s Tools in AI-Driven Development The ability to develop applications, automations, and bots without the need for custom coding, has resulted in a paradigm shift for cybersecurity. Now, more than ever, citizen developers can design and implement solutions without the need for a traditional coding background. Due to innovative tools and platforms, as well as the integration of AI, development is now faster, more accessible, and more efficient.
