Every other day, a new cybersecurity breach compromising common or 0-day vulnerability is reported. The rapid shift of digital businesses and remote work opened a whole arena for cyber attacks and increased the demand for solid defences. But, to stay ahead of adversaries, it is critical that you know what cyber security vulnerabilities are after too.
Usually, IT professionals and newcomers to the information security domain confuse security and compliance, which is not their fault. Both are to protect individuals’ and businesses’ digital and physical assets through appropriate security measures.
As technology explodes, so do the threats. Point solutions emerge as security players innovate in order to keep up.

During recent research, the team found 12 unique pieces of malware belonging to the same actor.
Let us start by defining Penetration Testing as a Service (also known as PTaaS) because there are several different definitions and variations being used throughout the industry. Some of the similarities include: This is where AT&T starts to differentiate itself from competitors.
