Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Cybersecurity is a high-stakes landscape, with very real threats of data breaches, malware, and other cyberattacks lurking around the corner. But detecting cyber threats is only half the battle—what happens when the threats you detect aren’t real? Enter the deceiving world of false positives—security alerts that incorrectly identify legitimate activity as malicious. While most security tools are designed to maximize detection, they often sacrifice accuracy in the process. The result?

Ollama is an emerging open-source framework designed to run large language models (LLMs) locally. While it provides a flexible and efficient way to serve AI models, improper configurations can introduce serious security risks. Many organizations unknowingly expose Ollama instances to the internet, leaving them vulnerable to unauthorized access, data exfiltration, and adversarial manipulation.

Third and fourth-party vendors have become paramount to many businesses’ operations, as they can help improve efficiency and expand the availability of services. However, these vendors often come with increased cybersecurity risks for your organization. According to Ponemon, the average cost of a data breach increases by more than $370,000 for breaches caused by third-party vendors.

Trust is critical to the success of every business. But building, scaling and demonstrating trust is getting harder for UK organisations. ‍ Vanta’s second annual UK State of Trust Report uncovers key trends across these areas of security, compliance and the future of trust. Surveying 1,000 business and IT leaders in the UK, our research found that more than half (54%) of UK organisations say that security risks for their business have never been higher. ‍

No organization can achieve its goals on its own. To truly get ahead in the rapidly transitioning digital society, any organization will need a diverse group of partners who specialize in the products and services they do not. Commonly referred to as a “supply chain” this web of connections ensures the world operates smoothly, but navigating its many connections is challenging. Luckily, Bitsight TRACE doesn’t shy away from a challenge.

Cybersecurity risks are a constant and evolving threat. Organizations across industries face vulnerabilities from both internal and external sources, which, if not addressed, can disrupt operations, damage reputations and erode trust. And this is where a structured and comprehensive risk management strategy becomes critical. But what exactly is a risk in cyber security? And what is risk management? Keep reading and find out about essential best practices in cyber risk management.

Earlier this week, users of the X (formerly Twitter) social network were either unable to access the platform or experienced service degradation somehow. On March 10, 2025, reports emerged of users worldwide being unable to log in, post, or view content. This incident was later attributed to a large-scale distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack targeting X's infrastructure.

Navigating the maze that is vendor-supplied evidence is one of the most time-consuming and frustrating tasks security teams face during the risk assessment process. Imagine spending countless hours chasing down security information from a vendor only to receive a mountain of dense, unstructured (sometimes contradictory) documents. How can you possibly move forward? Security analysts have long dealt with this very problem.

Every day, security teams are expected to manage risks in cloud environments that they don’t fully control, can’t always see, and that are constantly changing. Cloud-native assets—such as container workloads, autoscaling groups, and serverless functions—are highly dynamic, appearing, disappearing, and evolving in response to demand and functionality changes.
