Incorporating security into the software development lifecycle helps ensure the creation of secure and robust software applications from the very beginning. To further evolve our security offerings in the developer community, we announced our partnership with Atlassian to introduce Snyk Security in Jira Cloud as a part of the Security in Jira launch in June. Snyk started gradually rolling out the Jira Security App and has significantly improved the functionality and features available to users.

On August 8, 2023, the.NET community was informed that the testing library called Moq exfiltrates developer's emails from their development machine and sends them off to third-party remote servers. Snyk has already published a security advisory and will alert developers who scan and monitor their.NET projects with Snyk.

Threat actors abuse Google AMP for evasive phishing attacks, hackers exploit Salesforce’s email services in targeted Facebook phishing campaign, and Russian actor BlueCharlie alters infrastructure in response to disclosures.

The article highlights the significance of securing CI/CD systems and offers three best practices. It introduces OpenID Connect (OIDC) as a means to employ short-lived tokens for improved security.

One of the goals of Cloudflare is to give our customers the necessary knobs to enable security in a way that fits their needs. In the realm of SSL/TLS, we offer two key controls: setting the minimum TLS version, and restricting the list of supported cipher suites. Previously, these settings applied to the entire domain, resulting in an “all or nothing” effect.

In a world where software tools are spawning businesses each day, and cyberattacks and threats are increasing rapidly, ensuring the clarity and security of these tools has become a top priority. Regulators suggest new tools and standards to ease the complexities in a software supply chain. One such tool is the Software Bill of Materials (SBOM). It lists all the components used in building the software and helps identify the weak spots.

Where do vulnerabilities fit with respect to security standards and guidelines? Was it a coverage issue or an interpretation and implementation issue? Where does a product, environment, organization, or business vertical fail the most in terms of standards requirements? These questions are usually left unanswered because of the gap between standards or regulations on the one hand, and requirements interpretation and implementation, on the other.

When it comes to securing your enterprise and keeping it safe, your success depends on effective communication. How can you explain cyber risks to the board in a way that's easy to understand, yet still packs a punch? Cyber Risk Quantification (CRQ) is a methodological approach that allows security teams to measure and quantify cyber risks in financial terms.

The role humans play in cybersecurity generally focuses on how people can be the weakest link in an organization’s defense structure. However, when it comes to securing the healthcare industry, people are still paramount, but for quite different reasons.
