As the Kubernetes landscape continues to evolve, there is often the need to adapt to newer, more robust distributions. SUSE has announced the end of life of RKE (Rancher Kubernetes Engine) in favor of RKE2, a Kubernetes distribution designed with enhanced security, resilience, and scalability. For organizations running workloads on RKE, this shift marks an important milestone—but it also raises questions about how to migrate workloads safely and efficiently.

Region: European Union (Global impact for companies handling EU residents' data) Scope: Data privacy, security, and governance The GDPR sets the gold standard for data protection, demanding comprehensive compliance across a spectrum of activities. Organizations must ensure lawful data processing, gain explicit consent, enable data portability, and implement measures like data protection by design and default.

WatchGuard Technologies, a leading provider of unified cybersecurity solutions, today revealed its participation in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Accelerate Program. This co-sell initiative connects AWS Partners offering software solutions that operate on or integrate with AWS, helping them drive new business by directly linking ISVs with the AWS Sales team.

The question of ownership is one of the biggest reasons vulnerabilities persist in organizations far longer than they should. Who owns vulnerabilities? This isn’t just a theoretical debate—it’s a critical operational issue. Modern scanning solutions excel at identifying and prioritizing vulnerabilities, but without clear ownership, those vulnerabilities often linger unaddressed or improperly documented, increasing an organization’s risk exposure.

Together, Snyk and Google Cloud enable modern security practices that unify cloud and application security efforts. This collaboration simplifies risk management for CISOs, providing a cohesive strategy to protect cloud-native environments and the applications running within them. Security leaders often struggle with fragmented tools that create silos between cloud security and application security teams.

The rise of agentic AI tools will transform the cybercrime landscape, according to a new report from Malwarebytes. Agentic AI—which is still under development—is a step above the generative AI tools that are currently available to the public, and will likely be widely released in 2025. While these tools will have many legitimate uses, they’ll also enable cybercriminals to scale their attacks.

A KnowBe4 Threat Lab publication Authors: Daniel Netto, Jeewan Singh Jalal, Anand Bodke, and Martin Kraemer Executive Summary Attackers exploit redirects that lack safeguarding mechanisms to borrow the domain reputation of the redirect service, obfuscate the actual destination and exploit trust in known sources. Whitelisting URLs, only allowing a predefined set of URLs to be rewritten, is an effective countermeasures against the vulnerability on the server side.

‍As digital threats grow more sophisticated and cyber regulations expand in scope, business stakeholders are beginning to recognize the need to learn more about cybersecurity and how it impacts organizational performance. With this recognition comes the elevation of chief information security officers (CISOs) into the boardroom, tasked with explaining these cyber intricacies and offering strategies that can help safeguard operational resilience and drive long-term growth.

Creating an enterprise security-first culture is one of the most impactful things a CISO can do to protect their organization. Sure, high-tech solutions and fancy tools are important, but they are largely ineffective when staff are unable or unwilling to play their part in preventing, identifying, and reporting security incidents. However, in the quest to develop a positive cybersecurity culture, many Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) inadvertently create a toxic environment.

Published first as a whitepaper in late 2024, the 2025 OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications is yet another monumental effort from OWASP made possible by a large number of experts in the fields of AI, cybersecurity, cloud technology, and beyond—including Mend.io Head of AI Bar-El Tayouri. LLMs are still new to the market but beginning to mature, and the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications is maturing alongside it.
