In the race to secure modern enterprises, Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) is gaining speed, and has become the default remote access solution for many enterprises. But while ZTNA is a fabulous on-ramp to Zero Trust and a broader security strategy, it’s not enough to secure the win on its own. Operationalizing Zero Trust requires takes than just access control. It requires a security platform play: convergence, continuous risk evaluation, and visibility across every edge.

On July 22, 2025, Microsoft published an overview of a series of critical vulnerabilities affecting Microsoft SharePoint Server (CVE-2025-49704, CVE-2025-49706, CVE-2025-53770, and CVE-2025-53771). These vulnerabilities opened a dangerous window for threat actors to gain access to internal resources, execute code remotely, and take over SharePoint deployments.

On July 17, 2025, Ukraine’s Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-UA) publicly reported LAMEHUG, which is being documented as the first known malware that integrates large language model (LLM) capabilities directly into its attack methodology.

Qubit Conference Prague 2025 brought together some of the sharpest minds in cybersecurity—and Cato CTRL made sure to leave a mark. Not only did we share insights on AI-powered security, but we also marked a major milestone: the opening of our new R&D office in Prague. This expansion strengthens our global footprint and taps the best in the local engineering and development talent to help with the kinds of projects we present at Qubit.

Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tools are essential for IT operations, but their powerful capabilities and trusted status within enterprise networks have also made them valuable to threat actors. In the second half of 2024 and first quarter of 2025, we uncovered a recurring pattern during a series of cyber forensic investigations and threat detections impacting two US-based organizations and one UK-based organization.

In June 2025, FBI New York and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York announced charges against “IntelBroker,” the online persona of 25-year-old British national Kai Logan West.

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) has rapidly become a foundational security strategy for organizations modernizing their IT infrastructure. The increasing distribution of users, devices, and applications makes traditional security measures inadequate. Several solutions offer cloud-based brokers to implement ZTNA, but it’s crucial to understand that these solutions are not created equal. Let’s explore why Cato Networks’ cloud-based ZTNA solution distinctly stands apart.

Think back to when you were a kid, eyeing a cookie jar on the top shelf. Getting to it wasn’t just about reaching; it was about strategy. You had to avoid making noise, pick the sturdiest route, and time your move perfectly to avoid getting caught. Imagine having a team of expert scouts feeding you all the correct information: where the dangers are, which surfaces can support you, and the best way to grab that prize unnoticed. That’s exactly what BloodHound does.

To compete in today’s retail landscape, IT must support new growth strategies while delivering seamless, secure customer experiences. This means enabling rapid store rollouts, digitizing in-store experiences, and connecting cloud-based systems across every location. Customers expect faster, more connected, and more secure interactions at every touchpoint.

What if operating in China didn’t require a separate architecture? For global enterprises, China is too important and too complex to ignore. Whether you’re already operating there or considering expansion, China introduces unique connectivity, security, and compliance challenges that most global architectures aren’t equipped to handle. Infrastructure gaps, regulatory demands, and inconsistent user experience combine to make China uniquely challenging for IT and security leaders.
