Let’s face it. Managing and securing IT networks is far more complex today. Beyond securing endpoints, sensitive data, and the network perimeter, security teams must also focus on identity security, access management, and regulatory compliance. They not only have to create password policies but protect those passwords and access privileges. Twenty years ago, no one had to worry about things such as cloud identity. Today, a different world demands a different set of tools.

Misconfigurations (when cloud computing assets are set up incorrectly, leaving them vulnerable to unauthorized access, data breaches, and operational disruptions) and inadequate change control top the list of cloud security threats in 2024, rising from third place the year before. It's clear that the transition to cloud computing has amplified the challenges of configuration management, making it critical for entities to adopt cloud-specific configurations.

Security Operations Teams (SOCs) today are under attack by the very mechanisms meant to help them. A recent industry study revealed a few startling facts: And unsurprisingly, the vast majority (80%) say that manual processes are slowing them down. These stats lay out both the problem with and solution to alert fatigue today: too many alerts, too many bad ones, and not enough streamlined processes helping SOCs get ahead of the problem.

Cybersecurity is no longer an awareness issue but a strategic execution problem. In 2023, 96% of CEOs acknowledged cybersecurity’s importance for organizational growth, stability, and competitiveness, but only 15% had dedicated board meetings to discuss cybersecurity issues. This disconnect between awareness and action stems primarily from difficulty quantifying cybersecurity goals, investments, and return on investment (ROI), making it easier to overlook or, at best, an afterthought.

In the ever-evolving landscape of global finance, a new paradigm is emerging that promises to reshape assets, investments, and financial transactions at a fundamental level. Welcome to the era of tokenization.

In today’s software development, Git usually stands as a “go-to” for DevOps projects. It allows teams of developers to collaborate and contribute on non-linear projects, go back to any point in time and undo, as well as, redo changes whenever they need. In this article, we will go over important commands to help you navigate your commit history.

IT teams are the unsung heroes of today’s fast-paced digital world, tirelessly toiling behind the scenes to keep data safe and systems running smoothly. One tool that’s presented a major shift for many IT departments is the Microsoft Defender Suite. Let’s explore how this powerful suite of tools is transforming IT security and making life easier for IT professionals.

As a software developer, ensuring the security of your applications is paramount. A crucial part of this task involves managing secrets and employing a secrets detection tool. In this context, secrets refer to sensitive data such as API keys, database credentials, encryption keys, and other confidential information. Their unauthorized access or exposure can lead to catastrophic consequences, including data breaches and severe business losses.

In a surprising move, Apple has filed a motion to drop its high-profile lawsuit against NSO Group, the Israeli developer of Pegasus spyware. The lawsuit, originally filed in November 2021, aimed to curb NSO Group’s alleged misuse of its Pegasus spyware on Apple devices. However, citing security concerns related to its own cyber defense capabilities, Apple has chosen to withdraw from the legal battle.
