With cyber-security becoming a prime concern of individual users and organizations, everyone prefers using legitimate software. If the system shows a warning about any application, users instantly act uninstalling it and finding an alternative. And it can happen with your software too, that system displays a warning at download or installation only. But, you can prevent it by utilizing a Code Signing Certificate, which gets issued by a Certificate Authority.

The threat actor group behind Royal ransomware first appeared in January 2022, pulling together actors previously associated with Roy/Zeon, Conti and TrickBot malware. Originally known as “Zeon” before renaming themselves “Royal” in September 2022, they are not considered a ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation because their coding/infrastructure are private and not made available to outside actors.

Threat actors constantly evolve their tactics and techniques to circumvent security solutions. Working at the cutting-edge of detection engineering, CrowdStrike rapidly tracks and observes these evolutions in tactics to deliver timely, effective detections that protect customers. In this blog, we explore DLL side-loading and learn how CrowdStrike has expanded protections with Advanced Memory Scanning.

Forescout’s Vedere Labs latest research report is the first systematic study into deep lateral movement: how advanced adversaries can move laterally among devices at the controller level – also known as Purdue level 1 or L1 – of OT networks.

Authentication, at its core, is the act of verifying credentials. In the case of human beings, it’s as simple as answering the question, “Who are you, and how do I know for sure it’s you?” Authentication is something we’re constantly engaging with in everyday life.

Operating in a cloud model means not only being able to access your data anywhere but that your infrastructure is flexible and scalable enough to accommodate demands that change from day to day or sometimes from moment to moment. This is easy enough to achieve in a public cloud, where resources can be made elastic and added and removed dynamically.

Cryptography is fundamental to many information security and privacy mechanisms. Today, a variety of cryptographic algorithms are used in many different applications. This article explains cryptography: how it works, key principles or operations of cryptography, types of cryptography, use cases and more! (This article was written by Shanika Wickramasinghe.

When it comes to high profile cybercrime incidents, it’s the major tech vulnerabilities and sophisticated state-sponsored threat vectors that make the headlines. In reality, however, most of the cybercrime incidents exploit the human element as the weakest link in the cyberattack kill chain.

Most companies now recognize the serious and insidious nature of cybersecurity threats. But many fail to grasp that the digital transformation, remote work, automation and cloud migration activities of the last few years have turbocharged the number of identities seeking access to data and critical business systems. This surge in identities has exponentially increased the likelihood of cyberattacks, undercutting the effectiveness of traditional identity and access management (IAM) paradigms.
