A unique attribute of the current commercial and public sector is the convergence of warfare principles with information technology operations and security. In the realm of modern warfare, uncertainty is a constant companion. The term “fog of war,” coined by the Prussian military theorist Carl von Clausewitz, encapsulates the chaos and unpredictability inherent in military operations.

You’ve probably heard or read the advice: ‘Turn on multi-factor authentication (MFA) everywhere it’s offered.’ After all, it’s a great way to add an extra layer of protection to your online accounts.

With 16+ billion mobile devices in use worldwide, new data sheds light on how cyber attackers are shifting focus and tactics to put attacks into the victim’s hands. There’s an interesting story woven throughout mobile security provider Zimperium’s 2024 Global Mobile Threat Report that demands the attention of organizations intent on securing every attack vector – which includes personal mobile devices.

Agent Tesla is an advanced piece of malware that functions as a keylogger and RAT (remote access trojan). The malware was first identified in 2014. They are crafted to infiltrate systems and seize sensitive information like usernames, passwords, and other private data mainly by logging keystrokes. This kind of spyware works secretly in the background, which is difficult to detect for the users.

As a routine task, users move items, such as files and folders from one place to another on our computer, so that data is sorted and makes sense. While this can be accomplished with simple copy and paste options from within the File Explorer, advanced users may prefer PowerShell for efficiency and precision. The Move-Item cmdlet in PowerShell moves an item from one location to another in the File Explorer, with its properties, contents, and child items intact.

In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, the relationship between a security vendor and its customer is more critical than ever. As information security professionals, the pressure to ensure robust security postures is constant. Yet, the tools and services relied upon often fall short due to a fundamental disconnect between vendors and their customers.

Server compliance is critical to regulatory compliance, ensuring that organizations meet industry-specific standards for protecting sensitive data. Proper server configuration and continuous risk management are essential to avoid fines and maintain operational integrity. Server compliance is the adherence to specific regulations, standards, and best practices designed to safeguard sensitive information, maintain operational efficiency, and mitigate potential risks.

Imagine you’re all prepared to roll out your latest feature, and suddenly, right before launch, you discover a security vulnerability concealed in your code. Depending on the severity, developers can spend anywhere from 7 hours to days or even months finding and fixing these vulnerabilities. A critical vulnerability could set your release back by weeks, while a simple fix might take a day.

Organizations face an increasing number of software security threats that can compromise their sensitive data and disrupt business operations. To effectively manage these risks and enhance their security posture, it’s crucial for organizations to adopt modern application risk reduction strategies that not only mitigate potential vulnerabilities but also provide clear, actionable next steps and insights for reporting purposes.

The dynamic world of Kubernetes and cloud security is constantly evolving. As we explore this complicated ecosystem, it’s crucial to understand the role of policy as code (PaC) and its impact on operations and security teams. Emerging from the broader paradigm of infrastructure as code (IaC), PaC represents a significant shift in how we manage and secure cloud-native environments.
