Enterprises today rely on partners and vendors to help manage their data. Some companies depend on third-party infrastructure for day-to-day operations, so understanding the regulations and protection standards that a service provider is promising to uphold is very important.

93% of last year’s data breaches began with compromised credentials. Before the cloud, security perimeters were defined by physical walls and network boundaries, but in the cloud, that perimeter has all but dissolved. Consider what happened in November 2023, when a cloud observability vendor found evidence of unauthorized access to its staging environment — an environment that housed customer data and PII.

Ransomware attacks are still one of the worst types of software. Ransomware usually gets into systems through malicious links or IP addresses that have been hacked, which users often click on without thinking. To stop this, businesses need the best tool to prevent ransomware from clicked links ips. These tools actively look for, find, and stop harmful links before they can send harmful payloads. This makes ransomware attacks much less likely.

A black hat hacker is a cybercriminal who accesses your computer systems and network without your knowledge to steal data, disrupt systems and extort money. Black hat hackers try to take advantage of an organization’s security vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access to software, systems and networks. Once they gain access to an organization’s data, black hat hackers may hold the data for ransom or sell it to other businesses or cybercriminals.

Cloud workloads — and containers in particular — are often seen as immutable entities with predictable behavior. But recent CrowdStrike research suggests that some cloud security solutions rely too much on this premise, leading to suboptimal detection outcomes. CrowdStrike observes billions of container events each day. The data we collect gives us insights into real-world cloud workload behavior, which challenges these assumptions.

CVE-2024-47575, also known as FortiJump, is a critical (9.8) missing authentication vulnerability affecting critical functions in FortiManager and FortiManager Cloud versions.
