For each of the past four years, ThreatQuotient a Securonix company has released one of the industry’s definitive research reports on security automation. During that time, we’ve tracked the evolution of automation adoption by thousands of cybersecurity professionals around the world, including key trends, challenges and strategies for automating security operations.

Last quarter, a manufacturing client reached out with a serious AWS cost optimization challenge. Their AWS bill had grown from $22,000 to $38,000 per month over eight months, with no business growth to justify the increase. The CFO was threatening to abandon their cloud initiative entirely. After conducting our comprehensive AWS cost optimization audit, we identified $200,000 in annual waste and eliminated it within one week. Here’s exactly what we found and how we fixed it.

Receiving recognition from one leading analyst firm is a notable achievement. When two firms acknowledge your leadership, it clearly establishes a consistent pattern of market dominance. Following its designation as an Overall Leader in the KuppingerCole 2025 Leadership Compass for API Security, Salt Security has achieved the highest rating in the 2025 EMA PRISM Report for API Security.

We’ve spent decades treating persuasion like an art—something you could master if you had charisma, practice, or luck. Lawyers use it to hone arguments. Marketers use it to craft taglines. On the flip side, phishers use persuasive tactics to sharpen lures to razor points. But looking at it as an art form, while intuitive for some, can be messy. Hit-or-miss. Especially when you consider that today’s means of persuasion can run like code: systematic, reproducible, and scalable.

As businesses strive to secure sensitive cardholder data and stay compliant with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) v4.0.1, one of the most overlooked areas is developer training. The latest version of the PCI DSS places clear emphasis on ensuring developers are not only residually aware of security best practices, but are actively trained to build secure software and detect vulnerabilities. This is where Snyk Learn comes in.

HIPAA compliance safeguards Protected Health Information (PHI) with privacy, security, and breach notification rules that healthcare providers and partners must follow. Achieving compliance requires strong identity, access, and data security measures. Netwrix solutions help enforce least privilege, detect insider threats, secure endpoints, and simplify compliance reporting to strengthen trust and reduce risks.

Endpoint compliance ensures devices meet security standards to avoid data breaches, legal fines, and audit failures. This article outlines key frameworks like HIPAA, PCI DSS, and NIST 800-53, highlights emerging risks, and offers practical, real-world strategies to protect your organization. Learn how to improve your security posture and stay compliant.

Identity touches everything in modern IT. Whether it’s logging into email, provisioning a VM, or accessing a CRM, identity and access management (IAM) is the digital backbone of work. Yet the controls meant to safeguard it haven’t kept up with the scale, speed, and complexity of today’s environments. The cracks show up everywhere.

Every Android app relies on local storage to function. Whether it’s user credentials, API tokens, cached data, or session details, applications often write sensitive information to the device. And every one of those storage points is a potential entryway for attackers if not properly secured. The problem isn’t storage itself but how data is stored. Weak implementation choices expose critical information to attackers, malware, or even forensic tools.

Starting your journey as a government contractor can feel overwhelming. Between complex regulations, strict reporting requirements, and the constant threat of non-compliance penalties, new contractors face significant challenges that can derail their federal contracting ambitions before they even begin. The stakes couldn’t be higher. Non-compliance can result in contract termination, substantial financial penalties, and exclusion from future federal opportunities.
