Anyone reading this post will have at least dipped their toes into the world of cloud services. As a result of this massive growth, the world of compliance has spent much of the last decade catching up with the implications of cloud services.

In our fifth episode of the Future of Security Operations Podcast, Thomas speaks with Dylan White, an Information Security Engineer at KnowBe4 — a leading security awareness training platform.

As the digital transformation continues at full speed, the majority of humanity's routine activities have begun to be carried out through digital channels. As the world digitizes, the potential loot in the lap of hackers grows. That's why we witness the development of new cyber threats every day.

In today’s digitally-connected world, cyber risk is no longer a matter of probabilities, but certainties. This requires CISOs to rethink their reactive risk management program by evolving to embrace a proactive risk intelligence approach. With a risk intelligence-informed program, CISOs and their teams can continuously collect insights in a way that enables proactive, holistic, and data-driven decisions about security.

This article will cover DHCP in-depth, explaining what it is, how it works, its components, logging, configuration, and its benefits.

Multi-factor authentication (MFA) exploits and countermeasure tooling are evolving in real time and at a rapid pace. Some threat actors aim to bypass this security feature for financial gain, while other groups seek to control the flow of information.
