Go beyond GitHub's scope. Understand the full picture of your secret leaks with GitGuardian, covering public and internal exposures.

With the multiple regulations regarding information security entering into force over the past two years, 2025 marks a new era for organizational compliance.

As a CISO or security lead in a SaaS organization, the unthinkable could happen to you at any time. On a Friday evening, as you’re wrapping up work, you get a notification alerting you of a potential vulnerability in a customer-facing application. You have no idea what data has been leaked or how long this has been left exposed.

In an era where uncertainty is the norm, strong risk management isn’t just good practice – it’s a competitive advantage. For technology leaders steering organizations through complex challenges, two frameworks consistently rise to the top: ISO 31000 and the COSO Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework. Knowing how they differ – and where each shines – is key to building resilience and making smarter, strategy-aligned decisions.

Traditional vulnerability management is broken. It is ineffective. The process of scanning for software vulnerabilities, prioritizing based on CVSS scores, and fixing what you can has become an endless patch cycle. The need for a better approach is clear. Different scanning tools are creating millions of alerts, obscuring critical risks within the noise. Organizations need to go beyond finding and patching vulnerabilities and opt in to a more effective approach to managing exposures.

To keep pace with the scale and sophistication of cyber threats, organizations are re-evaluating how they secure the most common attack surface the endpoint. From laptops and servers to mobile devices, endpoints serve as entry points into business-critical systems. This is why Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) tools are fast becoming a foundational layer in modern cyber defence strategies.

In anticipation of Bitsight’s upcoming 2025 Ratings Algorithm Update (RAU), many organizations are eager to learn more about what to expect from the changes.
