Mobile Application Penetration Testing Methodology as a security testing measure, analyses security perimeters within a mobile environment. Derived from the traditional concept of application security methodology, its main focus lies on client-side security and it broadly puts the end-user in control. By conducting penetration testing, companies can gain insights into the source code’s vulnerabilities, bottlenecks, and attack vectors beforehand.
We’re excited to announce the launch support for AWS CloudFormation in Snyk Infrastructure as Code. In our recent Infrastructure as Code Security Insights report, we found that 36% of survey participants were using AWS CloudFormation (CF) as their primary infrastructure as code tool of choice. Using Snyk Infrastructure as Code, you can now scan your CF YAML or JSON templates against our comprehensive set of AWS security rules.
The data privacy regimes in Russia, China, and the United States are very different from the regimes elsewhere. The financial lure of selling to, or processing data on, EU residents is strong, which has led other countries to adopt the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or something like it. Russia, China, and the United States are large enough for other forces to dominate, including the desire to have their citizens’ data stored locally, as we’ll see.
The exploitation of traditional remote access technologies is reaching new records. That, in a nutshell, is the main finding of Nuspire’s Threat Landscape Report Q1 2021. The report, sourced from 90 billion traffic logs during Q1 2021, looks at a range of events such as malware activity, botnet activity, exploitation activity, and remote access. The remote access section probably best illustrates the risks posed by the sudden shift to remote working.
The many business benefits made possible by digital transformation are undoubtedly making waves across industries. Data is the raw material that drives smarter decision-making, and as such, drives value for organizations, but things quickly get challenging when you start to consider how all that data will be used—and who has access to it, when.
The following is an excerpt from Netskope’s recent book Designing a SASE Architecture for Dummies. This is the fifth in a series of seven posts detailing a set of incremental steps for implementing a well-functioning SASE architecture. Now that your organization is smarter about its traffic, able to see what’s going on, and able to enforce policies to secure its data, you can realize the promise of a remote-first workforce.
A couple of weeks ago The Payments Canada SUMMIT gathered more than 2,000 delegates from financial institutions in Canada and around the world for a virtual one-week conference. INETCO was a sponsor of Canada’s premier payments event. Our team participated in industry discussions, met peers, and learned more about future innovation opportunities in the financial ecosystem. 2021 was a record-breaking year for The Payments Canada SUMMIT.
Welcome back to our five-part series on client-side security approaches. For those of you who are new to this series, there are five approaches to client-side security: In this blog I’m going to cover the use and limitations of vulnerability scanning for client-side security. Let’s start with the absolute basics. First, let’s take a deeper dive into a few key questions.
