Despite first appearing earlier this year, RansomHub is already considered one of the most prolific ransomware groups in existence. It operates a ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation, meaning that a central core of the group creates and maintains the ransomware code and infrastructure, and rents it out to other cybercriminals who act as affiliates.

According to Vanta’s 2023 State of Trust Report, respondents spend an average of nine working weeks per year on security compliance. ‍ Some security teams have accepted that governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) will inevitably take tons of time and effort. And many continue to work towards small-scale efficiencies because they don’t believe anything better is possible. ‍ But there’s a better option for today’s businesses: GRC automation.

Software-in-the-loop (SiL) testing is a pivotal method in the software development lifecycle, especially for embedded systems and critical applications. By simulating real-world conditions and integrating software components within a controlled virtual environment, SiL allows for the early detection of bugs, ensuring higher code quality and reliability. Read on to learn how to introduce SiL testing in your project.

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is a federal agency within the Department of Health and Human Services. The FDA is responsible for protecting and promoting public health through the control and supervision of medications, vaccines, biopharmaceuticals, medical devices, and other types of products. To ensure the safety and security of medical devices, the FDA supports a variety of standards and guidelines that medical device manufacturers are highly recommended to follow.

The SANS 2024 SOC Survey, a comprehensive new Torq-sponsored study, reveals that for the first time in decades, the tenure of SOC and Security Analysts is increasing. They’re choosing to remain at their posts for three-to-five years, up from an average of one-to-three years. Modern post-SOAR hyperautomation solutions are playing a significant role in alleviating the burdens these cybersecurity pros face.

Cryptojacking is rapidly emerging as the most popular type of attack on cloud native applications and infrastructure. Care to guess how many cryptojacking attacks were recording in 2023? As a reference point, in the year before (2022), there were 139M cryptojacking attacks. However, this number jumped 659% the following year (2023) to 1.06B! That averages nearly 3M cryptojacking attacks every day, on average.

The best way to manage passwords for families is to use a family password manager. Keeper Family Password Manager gives each family member their own encrypted digital vault to securely store their passwords, along with files, photos, MFA codes and other information.

Want to be proactive and mitigate risks? Have your source code backed up… Try GitProtect.io backups for DevOps tools. In software engineering, by risks we mean events or factors that pose a possibility to impact the outcome of a project. These risks can be both internal and external. Managing them involves: detecting, assessing, and dealing with vulnerabilities that could affect the project.

Machine identities are growing faster than human identities, with a growth rate of 10 to 45 times higher. This complexity is compounded as more organizations adopt multi-cloud and hybrid strategies, a trend forecasted to continue through 2024. There’s also the rise in endpoints, as more machines become IoT-connected, leading to widening attack surfaces.
