As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, organizations in all industries ramped up their digital transformation efforts to make online operations easier for their employees and customers. But with more and more organizations online, the digital attack surface is growing at a record pace. The more applications with vulnerable code, the more opportunities for a cyberattack. In fact, our research found that 76 percent of applications have at least one security vulnerability.

The onset of ServiceNow has relieved the IT Services workforce. With CloudFabrix RDA added to it, we made it even better. Let’s face it that many IT Service transformation implementations take longer because of a lack of automation around migration and production. The efficiency of ITSM is further compromised due to the absence of data automation and enrichment. ServiceNow with Robotic Data Automation stirs a positive impact on three critical areas of data operations ITSM teams.

Continuing to ride the waves of Summer of Security and the launch of Splunk Security Cloud, Splunk Security Essentials is now part of the Splunk security portfolio and fully supported with an active Splunk Cloud or Splunk Enterprise license.

First coming to light as a local elevation of privilege vulnerability affecting pre-release versions of Windows 11 (Figure 1), subsequent investigations into the issue, namely sensitive registry hive files being accessible to all users when 'System Protection' is enabled, confirm that it also affects Windows 10. Initially dubbed 'HiveNightmare' and 'SeriousSAM' by security researchers, CVE-2021-36934 has been assigned to this vulnerability although the CVSS score has yet to be determined.

Fraudulent phone calls have been an issue for years, and they’re becoming more common. According to a recent report from Truecaller, 59.49 million Americans lost money to scam calls in the past year, costing $29.8 billion. These threats have risen in both number and cost, and businesses can’t afford to ignore this trend. Small and medium-sized businesses are popular targets for fraud, as they often have less security.

Prototype Pollution is one of the less known vulnerabilities in the security community. Researchers started to discuss it as a potential attack vector around 2017, and the first vulnerabilities were found in the wild at the start of 2018. In this article, we’re going to take a deep dive into what Prototype Pollution vulnerabilities are, and how they can be mitigated.

We’ve been asked to provide a comparison of scan times between Snyk Code and two common SAST tools: LGTM and SonarQube. For our research, we made several assumptions, but we’ve shared the details in order to be transparent.
