To give system managers a number of advantages over traditional interfaces for streamlining and automating administrative chores, Microsoft created PowerShell, a built-in scripting language and command-line executor. The strength of PowerShell renders it a handy instrument for attackers to conduct file-less exploits, which are challenging to block and identify. Essentially, the PowerShell script is a simple text file with an a.ps1 extension. When you execute the file on the prompt, it will begin to run.

While purchasing the Code Signing Certificate, particularly EV Code Signing Certificate, we all came across the term Windows Defender SmartScreen.

While the focus on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues has gained traction in recent years, both within boardrooms and investment spaces, the focus on carbon credits and workforce diversity has diverted the existential crisis that companies face from cybersecurity.

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI), the government’s telecom authority, would implement a caller identification system similar to other caller ID applications on the app store within the next three weeks.

Roles make it easier to grant and revoke privileges for users of a relational database. Rather than managing privileges for each user individually, you manage privileges for each role and all changes apply to all users who are assigned that role. Organizations often create multiple roles to suit their unique needs. However, most databases come with a pre-defined role called PUBLIC. In this blog, we explain what the PUBLIC role means in Oracle and key best practices for using it.

Unconstrained delegation represents a serious cybersecurity risk. By taking steps to abuse the Active Directory delegation controls applied to user and computer objects in an AD environment, an attacker can move laterally and even gain control of the domain. This blog post explores this area of attack (unconstrained delegation) and offers security teams and administrators effective strategies for mitigating this security risk.
