Better Together: The Benefits of Combining MXDR and TPRM

Security operations teams face escalating demands to promptly detect and respond to third-party cyber threats, largely due to the increasing number of data breaches occurring within an organization’s supply chain. An effective program to manage this type of cyber risk is essential for safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining business continuity.

McAfee Discovers New Phishing Campaign Targeting GitHub Users

A phishing campaign is targeting GitHub users with phony CAPTCHA pages, according to researchers at McAfee. The phishing emails ask users to address a security vulnerability in a GitHub repository that they recently contributed to, and contain a link to find more information about the alleged vulnerability.

Stay Focused on Relevant Threat Intel Through Scoring and Expiration

John Lennon popularized the phrase, “Life is what happens when you’re making other plans.” And that’s an apt characterization for how we think about threat intelligence. We tend to focus on it to block or alert-on an attack. Meanwhile life is what’s happening to our threat intel while we’re making these plans. When we don’t pay attention to the threat intelligence lifecycle, we can run into trouble.

How Security Debt Compounds Vulnerability Risk

Organizations often find themselves caught in a perpetual cycle of identifying, prioritizing, and mitigating vulnerabilities that pose the most risk.

Identifying Insecure C Code with Valgrind and Fixing with Snyk Code

C and C++ remain foundational in critical software development. These languages power a wide array of systems, from embedded devices to high-performance applications in manufacturing, operational technology (OT), and the industrial market. Their efficiency, control over system resources, and performance make them indispensable for developers working on mission-critical projects.

Zenity Researchers Discover Over-Permissions in Salesforce Copilot Topics

The Zenity Labs team has discovered that non-administrator users can modify existing flows that were connected to Einstein by an administrator, influencing Einstein without having the necessary permissions to edit it directly. In doing so, bad actors can easily insert malicious actions into flows that are triggered by business users throughout the enterprise, including phishing attacks, data exfiltration, and more.
