As organisations increasingly rely on IoT devices for operational efficiency and data collection, managing each device securely throughout its lifecycle becomes crucial. IoT Device Lifecycle Management (DLM) is a structured approach to securing IoT devices from their initial setup through to decommissioning. By implementing best practices for each stage, organisations can reduce security risks, ensure data protection, and maintain compliance with regulatory standards.

As 2025 approaches, cybersecurity leaders are bracing for a year of intensifying challenges. Regulations are tightening, nation-state attackers are refining their strategies, and CISOs are under growing pressure. Aleksandr Yampolskiy, Co-Founder and CEO, Jeff Le, VP of Global Government Affairs and Public Policy, and Steve Cobb, CISO, all from SecurityScorecard, bring sharp focus to what lies ahead. What worked in 2024 may not protect you in 2025.

One of the most important pillars of a well-architected framework is security. Thus, it is important to follow these AWS security best practices, organized by service, to prevent unnecessary security situations. So, you’ve got a problem to solve and turned to AWS to build and host your solution. You create your account and now you’re all set up to brew some coffee and sit down at your workstation to architect, code, build, and deploy. Except, you aren’t.

We witness a sharp surge in website security risks, as highlighted in the latest State of Application Security 2023 Annual Report. AppTrana WAAP blocked over 6 billion attacks across 1400+ websites under its protection. Every website is at risk, regardless of whether it is a simple blog, a portfolio showcase, a small cupcake business, or a dynamic e-commerce platform. Why would someone hack my website? How do hackers check if my website is hackable? How do websites get hacked?

When we think about cybersecurity, we think of malicious actors constantly devising new ways to breach our defenses. While this is critical, it's equally important to understand that another menace can be sitting down the hall. The risk of insider attacks is significant and should not be overlooked. These attacks have floored businesses of all sizes and in various industries, frequently with dire consequences.

Imagine, for a moment, that your IT environment is the Death Star. You know the rebels will try to rescue Princess Leia. If you’re Darth Vader, you need systems that detect Luke and Chewbacca when they gain unauthorized access and systems that prevent them from accessing the Death Star. As a security analyst, you have varied technologies that detect and prevent malicious actors from gaining unauthorized access to your networks.

As application development and deployment evolve, traditional tools alone can no longer handle the dynamic, ephemeral nature of cloud and cloud-native environments. This article explores how cloud-native application protection platforms (CNAPPs) are addressing these challenges to enhance coverage and streamline prioritization.

The demands on security teams have never been greater and practitioners need tools that can keep pace with evolving threats. Yet, many are still tied to legacy SOAR platforms whose limitations - outdated integration methods, clunky usability, and lengthy deployment timelines - hold teams back from achieving their automation goals. Recognizing when it’s time to pivot is critical. For many teams, next-gen SOAR platforms can also fall short.

Every year, more and more companies are confronted with website and email spoofing worldwide. Cyber criminals use fake websites and fake email accounts for phishing, spear phishing and social engineering attacks to commit fraud, redirect web traffic, or manipulate search engine rankings. The disarming, or takedown, of these fake domains is a real challenge for more and more security teams. This is because cyber criminals are becoming increasingly professional in their spoofing activities.
