It’s hard not to say that 5G technology brings a lot of benefits. 5G entails faster download speeds, and yes, if you have a 5G-enabled handset, you could hear and appreciate the speed increases for videos, gaming, etc. However, 5G provides added benefits that go way above those for the everyday user. Let’s take a look at the high speed and low latency of 5G. There are a lot of areas or industries that require pinpoint accuracy and precision.

Penetration testing is one of the most efficient and straightforward methods to see how secure your systems are. Read our article to learn how penetration tests are done.

If the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has caused your enterprise to make a sudden, rapid switch from an on-premises-centered business model to a diverse, dispersed network of ad-hoc home offices, you may have let security and privacy measures slide a bit.

Phishing is one of the things that keeps CISOs up at night. Phishing attacks are effective and simple to launch, and used by financially motivated attackers as well as more targeted attacks.

We’re back with part two of our three-part blog series on living-off-the-land attacks. If you missed part one, you can read it here. In a nutshell, living-off-the-land (LOTL) refers to a type of attack where the attacker uses the tools and features that already exist in the target environment to carry out malicious activities. The concept of LOTL is not new, but LOTL and file-less attacks have been gaining popularity over the last few months.

In this post we will talk about using image scanning on admission controller to scan your container images on-demand, right before your workloads are scheduled in the cluster. Ensuring that all the runtime workloads have been scanned and have no serious vulnerabilities is not an easy task. Let’s see how we can block any pod that doesn’t pass the scanning policies before it even runs in your cluster.
