Artificial intelligence (AI) has a long and storied history. Ancient Greeks, for example, told stories of Talos, an enormous automaton that stood guard over Crete’s shores. In the 17th century, Gottfried Leibniz, Thomas Hobbes, and René Descartes explored the possibility that all rational thought could be as systematic as algebra or geometry.

In early April this year, the UK's Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) released its Cybersecurity Breaches Survey 2024. It provides a comprehensive overview of the UK's cybersecurity landscape, exploring the different cyberattacks and cybercrimes businesses, charities, and private sector educational instructions face, the impacts on these organizations, and how they respond. The report is a valuable resource for the cybersecurity community.

Phishing is not going away—it’s morphing and evolving. As an example, in late 2022 the overnight commodification of artificial intelligence (AI) changed the phishing threat landscape forever, lowering the barrier to entry for novice fraudsters who had previously had the motives, but lacked the means to launch sophisticated scams. ChatGPT and fraud-specific Generative AI tools (like the aptly named FraudGPT and WormGPT) granted malefactors the ability to supercharge and scale their operations.

In a world with frequent technological changes, maintaining the trustworthiness and protection of your data and systems should be of paramount importance. With technology constantly evolving for the better, dangers and susceptibility could also make your online security more extraordinary. This is where the issues of network security and application security appear, which may be referred to as two complementary subtopics.

The transportation industry is not only part of critical infrastructure, but at the nexus of other critical infrastructure sectors that rely on transportation systems to operate reliably. When threat actors put this fundamental function at risk, there’s a ripple effect that disrupts individuals, businesses, government and supply chains.

Monitoring user activity on your critical endpoints is a vital part of an effective cybersecurity strategy. Organizations need to monitor both remote and local user sessions to ensure user accountability, manage cybersecurity risks, enable prompt incident response, and comply with relevant cybersecurity laws and regulations. This is a step-by-step guide on how to monitor user activity in Linux and record remote SSH sessions on any endpoint with the Ekran System software agent installed.

Artificial Intelligence is becoming an integral part of our work. It helps us be more productive by automating tasks, analyzing, and boosting the speed of our work. Due to the desire to accelerate work and make it more efficient, SaaS providers integrate AI into their software. For example, Atlassian in 2023 announced Atlassian Intelligence, a combination of state-of-art OpenAI models and the power and data within the Atlassian platform.

By expanding its scope and introducing modernized requirements, the new NIS 2 Directive challenges organizations to elevate their cyber preparedness. This article explores how the directive affects a wide range of sectors and the critical infrastructure within them, detailing the requirements for compliance and highlighting the key role that IONIX plays in supporting organizations in meeting these regulations.

Media attention on various forms of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) underscores a key dynamic that CISOs, CIOs, and security leaders face – namely, to keep current with the fast pace of technological change and the risk factors that this change brings to the enterprise.

The first-ever BSides312 brought together security pros in Chicago, featuring insights on risk quantification, incident response, and innovative training for seniors.
