Back before live security video feeds in homes, people would walk around at night checking to make sure they locked every window and door. They took these precautions because they knew that a single open lock gave burglars an opportunity to steal from them. For organizations, vulnerability management programs are a way to lock the doors against cybercriminals.

No principle is more frequently praised yet ignored than the principle of least privilege in cybersecurity. It’s the equivalent of locking your server room but handing everyone the master key “just in case.” Considering the current threat landscape, which is rife with credential leaks, ransomware, insider incidents, and careless automation, complacency is not only costly but also dangerous. And above all, reckless.

Ben Reardon, Lead Researcher Corelight Labs / NOC crew I'm a researcher on the Labs team at Corelight and, for me, working in the Black Hat Network Operations Center (NOC) at the USA show in Las Vegas is up there as one of the most interesting and intense activities on the calendar.

I’ve been to several Black Hat conferences (seven in the last two and a half years, alone) to be a threat hunter in the Network Operations Center (NOC), so I didn’t expect to be surprised by much at this year’s Black Hat USA.

If there’s one lesson security teams should take from recent disclosures, it’s this: AI agent attack techniques don’t disappear - they resurface, across vendors and platforms, with only small variations. What researchers called out months ago is showing up again, now in Salesforce as the ForcedLeak vulnerability.

Let's have a look at how to integrate NHI Governance with AWS IAM to get detailed security insights into your dashboard.

Today, almost all organizations use AI in some way. But while it creates invaluable opportunities for innovation and efficiency, it also carries serious risks. Mitigating these risks and ensuring responsible AI adoption relies on mature AI models, guided by governance frameworks. The OWASP AI Maturity Assessment Model (AIMA) is one of the most practical. In this article, we’ll explore what it is, how it compares to other frameworks, and how organizations can use it to assess their AI maturity.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has long established itself as one of the most forward-looking digital asset markets in the world. With an astute regulatory framework, growing institutional interest, and a thriving crypto-native community, the foundation has been laid for UAE banks and payments companies to take the next step in their digital asset journey.

Organizations today face a continuous struggle to secure their web applications against threats that constantly evolve in the fast-paced digital landscape. The Web Application Firewall (WAF) serves as a primary line of defense against these threats; however, its management challenges often outweigh its security benefits, resulting in organizations not realizing the full value of their security investment.

PCI audits are not designed to protect your organization. They are designed to protect the payment card industry. This misalignment exists because card brands bear the burden of fraud-related costs, so the framework is built to minimize their exposure rather than address the unique risks merchants face. For example, PCI DSS focuses heavily on infrastructure and network security, reflecting a time when payment processing happened in secure, on-premise environments.
