7 tips to become a successful bug bounty hunter

Bug bounty hunting is a process where security researchers or hackers actively search for and identify security vulnerabilities or "bugs" in web applications, IoT devices, mobile applications, or even smart contracts. These vulnerabilities can range from relatively simple issues like cross-site scripting (XSS) or SQL injection to more complex and critical weaknesses that could potentially compromise the security and privacy of users' data.

SecurityScorecard Returns to the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting: Our Top 5 Insights

What keeps CISOs up at night? The extended, often unsecured, ever-changing attack surface of critical supply chain vendors providing an unmonitored pathway into their enterprise. Emerging zero-day vulnerabilities, like MOVEit and SolarWinds, are time-sensitive issues that require immediate attention by security teams that are often over-burdened with securing the local enterprise.

Network Security vs. Application Security: The Complete Guide

Enterprise cybersecurity must constantly evolve to meet the threat posed by new malware variants and increasingly sophisticated hacker tactics, techniques, and procedures. This need drives the way security professionals categorize different technologies and approaches. The difference between network security and application security is an excellent example. These two components of the enterprise IT environment must be treated separately in any modern cybersecurity framework.

6 Behaviors that Hinder Vulnerability Management Maturity

I’ll be honest – the last time someone asked me to assess my behavior was in therapy. Difficult? Yes. Who likes to audit themselves? But that process taught me something valuable: evaluating ourselves, even when uncomfortable, propels us forward. In my many conversations with security professionals, one common theme emerges. We need continuous progress forward as security organizations for the business.

Cloud security vs. traditional security

Data protection principles are the same whether your data sits in a traditional on-premises data center or a cloud environment. However, the way you apply those principles is quite different when it comes to cloud security vs. traditional security. Moving data to the cloud – whether it's a public cloud like AWS, a private cloud or hybrid cloud — introduces new attack surfaces, threats and challenges, so you need to approach security in a new way.

Future of VPNs in Network Security for Workers

The landscape of network security is continuously evolving, and Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are at the forefront of this change, especially in the context of worker security. As remote work becomes more prevalent and cyber threats more sophisticated, the role of VPNs in ensuring secure and private online activities for workers is more crucial than ever. Let's explore the anticipated advancements and trends in VPN technology that could redefine network security for workers.
