Enabling More Precise Evaluation of Email Security with DMARC

Email is a well-known and widely used attack vector for malware distribution, phishing, and many other types of threats. For this reason, we evaluate certain email security practices as part of the Diligence category of risk vectors used to calculate Bitsight Security Ratings. On April 30, 2024, we added a new email security evaluation focused on the use of Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting, and Conformance (DMARC) records.

Shamane Tan on cyber resilience - Cyber Security Decoded

Bouncing back from a cyber incident, data breach or #ransomware attack is a great accomplishment…but how can you bounce forward? A complete Cyber Resilience strategy is mission-critical. Security teams should be proactive and have response plans in place for when #CyberAttacks hit, rather than attempting to prevent attacks from occurring. With a #CyberResilience strategy, your team will be equipped with a plan when a cyber incident occurs while also having tools to identify those malicious attacks before they happen.

Afni's Brent Deterding on deploying MFA for 10,000 employees and becoming "the Happy CISO"

In this week’s episode of The Future of Security Operations podcast, I'm joined by Brent Deterding. Brent has over 25 years of experience in security, both on the vendor side and now as a security leader. He spent a big part of his career with cloud-native security analytics platform SecureWorks, and he’s currently the CISO of Afni, a global provider of contact center solutions in the U.S., Philippines, and Mexico.

Fuel for Security AI

The big idea behind Corelight has always been simple: ground truth is priceless. What really happened, both now and looking back in time. Whether it is used to detect attacks, investigate routine alerts, respond to new vulnerabilities or a full scale incident response, the constant is that ground truth makes everything in security better. We have no claim of authorship here. By contrast, we learn from the world’s most accomplished defenders through their use of Zeek® and Suricata®.

Introducing the Wallarm Q1 2024 API ThreatStats Report

As we have in previous editions of the ThreatStats report, we highlight the industry’s top API-related attacks and trends. New to this version, however, is a detailed analysis of API attacks targeting AI-based applications, representing a new and rapidly expanding threat vector. And while we encourage you to download the full report, here are some key observations about what you’ll find within. API threats to AI applications are clearly on the rise.

Volatile Data Acquisition from Live Linux Systems: Part I

In the domain of digital forensics, volatile data assumes a paramount role, characterized by its ephemeral nature. Analogous to fleeting whispers in a bustling city, volatile data in Linux systems resides transiently within the Random Access Memory (RAM), encapsulating critical system configurations, active network connections, running processes, and traces of user activities. Once a Linux machine powers down, this ephemeral reservoir of information dissipates swiftly, rendering it irretrievable.

Preventing Magecart Attacks Through Supply Chain Vulnerabilities

The digital supply chain refers to the chain of third-party digital tools, services and infrastructure that is depended on for a particular first-party service (such as your website or SaaS platform). In an ever-changing digital landscape, supply chains can be brittle with many unseen risks. The nature of supply chain risk is transitive; any part of the often long and complicated digital supply chain can be compromised, causing all components downstream of it to also be compromised.
