TL;DR We’ve partnered with SprintoGRC, the full-stack security compliance automation platform, to help companies put security on autopilot. Get compliance done 🤝 get back to building.
Your business is a link in one or more supply chains. Your business depends on those who supply to you, and in turn those you supply to (and their customers and their customers’ customers) depend on you. Any disruption at any point affects the flow of goods, services, and information affecting others in the supply chain. It’s important that we understand the risk in our supply chain and the potential risk we pose to our customers, especially cyber-related risk. Why?
Cybercrime targeting law firms has surged by 77% in the past year, raising significant concerns for the legal sector. The frequency, nature, and motivations of these attacks are evolving, putting law firms in a vulnerable position. Due to the sensitive nature of their data and high stakes, law firms are frequent targets for financially motivated cybercriminals, hacktivists, and even state-sponsored groups.
Cybersecurity involves anticipating threats and designing adaptive strategies in a constantly changing environment. In 2024, organizations faced complex challenges due to technological advances and sophisticated threats, requiring them to constantly review their approach. For 2025, it is crucial to identify key factors that will enable organizations to strengthen their defenses and consolidate their resilience in the face of a dynamic and risk-filled digital landscape.
Fact: An organization of any size has employees that receive email. Fact: Threat actors, with the help of apps like ChatGPT, are becoming more efficient at creating compelling phishing emails. Fact: The law of averages mandates an attack will succeed when a staffer is fooled and opens a malicious email or clicks on the wrong link. Fact: A robust email security strategy, which includes a Secure Email Gateway, is a must to protect against email-borne attacks.
As most security teams know, vulnerabilities often steal the limelight with sensational headlines and zero-day exploits. However, lurking beneath the surface are misconfigurations — overlooked risks that can leave even well-protected systems exposed. Addressing these configuration errors is essential. Security configuration assessment (SCA), also known as configuration management, is the process of discovering unsafe configuration settings.
While vulnerability management is one of the few preventative practices in security, vulnerability patching is still a reactive process. It’s a continuous cycle of discovery, vendors releasing patches, and remediation teams applying those patches. What if there was a way to build in some proactivity to this endless reactive spiral?
Recently, Google made headlines with the announcement of its new quantum chip, Willow, marking another step forward in the fascinating world of quantum computing. The technology promises to solve problems that are currently intractable for classical computers, fueling excitement—and a fair bit of concern—about its implications for cryptography, particularly the widely used RSA encryption.
The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) is set to transform how financial institutions across the European Union manage and mitigate ICT (Information and Communications Technology) risks. With the official compliance deadline in January 2025, organizations are under pressure to ensure their systems can withstand and recover from disruptions—an urgent priority in an increasingly digitized financial ecosystem.
