Cloud penetration testing challenges and techniques

In recent years, cloud computing has become a pivotal element in modern business structure, fundamentally altering how you manage, process and safeguard your data. Its growth isn’t just a trend; it represents a shift in the digital paradigm, offering scalability, efficiency and innovative solutions to complex business needs. But with these advances come new challenges in cybersecurity, particularly in cloud environments.

Unfolding the Basics of SaaS Defense

Imagine working in a digital fort-your business's data safely tucked behind the virtual walls of various cloud-based software. Sounds secure, right? But without the right armor, these walls might not be as impenetrable as you think. Enter the world of CSPM, a critical aspect of cloud software security that's all about keeping your data defenses robust and your compliance on point. But before we delve into those strategies, let's consider the susceptibilities.

Bulletproofing the retail cloud with API security

Application programming interface (API) security is critical for retailers increasingly reliant on cloud technology. However, they also open potential gateways for cyber threats, making robust security protocols essential to protect sensitive data and maintain customer trust. The complexity of retail systems, which often involve numerous third-party integrations, can create multiple points of vulnerability.

3 Proven Tips to Finding the Right CSPM Solution

Multi-cloud environments create complex IT architectures that are hard to secure. Although cloud computing creates numerous advantages for companies, it also increases the risk of data breaches. Did you know that you can mitigate these risks with a CSPM? Rony Moshkovitch, Prevasio’s co-founder, discusses why modern organizations need to opt for a CSPM solution when migrating to the cloud and also offers three powerful tips to finding and implementing the right one.

Rising Threats: Social Engineering Tactics in the Cloud Age

Over the past year, the social engineering tactics used for cyber attacks have evolved significantly as attackers manipulate the inherent trust, biases, and vulnerabilities of individual human behavior to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information or systems.

Runtime Is The Way

The cloud security market has been totally bizarre ever since it started. Why are we being given a python script to count our workloads? How do we handle sending alerts like “new unencrypted database” to a SOC? What’s the difference between this tool and the open source options? We’re all learning together about the new processes, tools, and deployments that would define the future.

Threat Actors Distributing Screenshotter Malware from OneDrive

According to the data collected by Netskope Threat Labs, over the course of 2023, OneDrive was the most exploited cloud app in terms of malware downloads. And if a good day starts in the morning, 2024 does not promise anything good. In fact, at the beginning of January, and after a nine-month break, researchers from Proofpoint detected a new financially motivated campaign by TA866, a threat actor characterized for being involved in activities related to both cybercrime and cyberespionage.
