How many times have you experienced this scenario at work? A hot new AI tool emerges, promising game-changing productivity and innovative features. You can’t wait to try it out in your own workflow. But what is often your security team’s first instinct? Block it.

‍Cybersecurity governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) programs are gaining institutional support, with 61% of respondents from Sprinto's "Pulse of Cyber GRC Report 2025" claiming that embedding GRC into their business strategy is one of their organization's top priorities. Even so, only 53% state that they are doing so effectively, highlighting the prevalent gap that exists in the cybersecurity world between intention and execution.

‍ ‍The European Central Bank (ECB), tasked with maintaining financial stability in the region, is changing how it supervises institutional resilience. According to a July 2025 Reuters report, banks across the Eurozone are being asked explicitly to model how large-scale disruptions, including geopolitical conflict, potential dollar shortages, and cyber incidents, could impact their capital reserves.

Are you confident your vendors can withstand a cyber attack? If not, you should continuously evaluate your third-party security, especially if you’re sharing sensitive customer data across your vendor ecosystem. In this post, we break down the concepts of third-party security and provide an actionable roadmap for effectively strengthening this essential branch of cybersecurity across your organization.

Your vendors are essential partners, but they could also be your organization's biggest hidden security risk. A robust vendor review process is the key to ensuring onboarded vendors align with your cybersecurity standards and don't increase your likelihood of suffering a data breach. This guide outlines everything you need to know to build a structured, repeatable, and scalable vendor security review process.

Welcome to 2025, where thousands of internet-connected cameras meant to protect us are actually putting us at risk. In our latest research at Bitsight TRACE, we found over 40,000 exposed cameras streaming live on the internet. No passwords. No protections. Just out there. We first raised the alarm in 2023, and based on this latest study, the situation hasn’t gotten any better.

Organizations are facing an increasing array of security challenges these days that can disrupt operations, lead to significant financial losses, and damage reputations. Traditional reactive security measures are no longer sufficient. Instead, a strategic focus on proactive security is essential. Predictive risk assessment stands at the forefront of modern security approaches, offering a comprehensive framework for identifying vulnerabilities before they are exploited.

When it comes to cybersecurity, organizations face an ever-present and often underestimated threat: human risk. Despite significant advancements in technological defenses, human error remains a leading cause of data breaches and security incidents. Industry studies consistently show that between 70% and 90% of data breaches involve some form of human-related cause—whether through social engineering, errors, or misuse.
