OWASP Top 10:2021 - A02 Cryptographic Failures

Cryptographic failures refer to the improper use, implementation, or management of cryptographic systems. These issues often result in unauthorized exposure of sensitive data like passwords, credit card numbers, or personal records. In the OWASP Top 10 – 2021, this category replaced the broader ‘sensitive data exposure’ from the 2017 list, with a sharper focus on the misuse or failure of cryptographic mechanisms.

AI - More Than a Buzzword?

Lately, the common theme in emerging identity security technology has been… well, you know. AI. It’s all anyone wants to talk about. All of us in the IAM business have been scurrying to find a way to tell our customers and the market that, yes! we have AI! we've had it all along! If that were so obviously true, then why are we having to tell you about it now? As an identity security technologist, I’ve experienced the growing pains of AI in IAM.

SOC 2 vs. HIPAA: Everything you need to know

SOC 2 and HIPAA are widely adopted security standards aimed at protecting in-scope organizations and the sensitive data they process from cybersecurity threats. While they have the same overarching security goal, HIPAA and SOC 2 differ in a few major aspects, and their implementation specifics can also vary considerably. ‍ Depending on your security posture and compliance needs, you may need to implement one or both frameworks.

Top Container Scanning Tools in 2025

Containers have become the backbone of modern DevOps, but they also introduce new security headaches. A single vulnerable base image or misconfigured container can snowball into a major breach across dozens of services. In fact, recent research found that about 75% of container images carry high-severity or critical vulnerabilities. Add to this the 2025 trends of supply chain attacks and ever-evolving CVEs, and it’s clear that container scanning tools are a must-have.

Capital One Customers Targeted By Credential Harvesting Phishing Campaign

The KnowBe4 Threat Lab has identified an active phishing campaign impersonating Capital One. The attacks are sent from compromised email accounts to help them evade reputation-based detection by native security and secure email gateways (SEGs). Once delivered, the attacks use stylized HTML templates and brand impersonation to trick the recipient into believing the communications are legitimate. Recipients who fall victim are directed to credential-harvesting websites.

Scammers Exploit Uncertainty Surrounding US Tariffs

Cybersecurity experts are warning that scammers are taking advantage of uncertainty surrounding the U.S. administration’s tariff policies, CNBC reports. Fraudsters may send texts or emails posing as retailers, delivery companies or government agencies, requesting tariff-related payments for purchases and deliveries. James Lee, president of the Identity Theft Resource Center, noted that scammers frequently take advantage of new government policies to launch phishing attacks.

How ASPM Analytics Empower CISOs with Real-Time Security Insights

Understanding the security posture of your application stack is increasingly important. Exploitation of vulnerabilities surpassed phishing as the known initial access vectors in non-Error, non-Misuse breaches, according to the Verizon 2025 Data Breach Investigations Report. As a CISO or security leader, are you prepared for this shift in the industry?

The Multi-Agent System: A New Era for SecOps

Security teams face mounting pressure to defend against sophisticated cyber threats. Traditional automation strategies are often rigid, reactive, and lack the ability to scale effectively. Many SOCs already have access to generative AI to assist with simple tasks and now Torq has brought agentic AI into the mix — which thinks, acts, and learns autonomously to handle security risks. What’s next?
