Many operational technology (OT) environments depend on Windows 10 systems. In October 2025, Microsoft ended support for Windows 10. That doesn’t mean manufacturers have to immediately replace their systems, but it does change the risk profile related to unsupported operating systems. In OT environments, operating systems commonly reach end of support long before the industrial assets they control.

DNS is foundational to almost every application, yet it is often treated as background configuration rather than a critical dependency. During network changes, DNS settings are easy to overlook. A single device pointing to the wrong resolver, missing a required DNS entry, or retaining a legacy configuration can cause application failures that appear unrelated to the original change.

As AI systems are used in our day-to-day operations, a central reality becomes unavoidable: AI doesn’t configure itself and must be set up with human approval and oversight. It requires engineers and developers to configure it. Developers need privileges to access and implement components, agents, tools, and features of the platforms. But developers don’t just have these privileges unconstrained… right? Where trust and privileges exist, someone will try to abuse them.

In today’s corporate environments, browsers have become one of the most active entry points for endpoints. They are at the center of daily workflows, a gateway to SaaS applications, cloud services, and critical business resources, which places them high on attacker radars.

With Keeper’s Slack workflow integration, users can request and approve secure access to credentials, records and elevated privileges directly in Slack, without switching tools or sacrificing visibility. By bringing secure access requests and approvals into Slack, Keeper delivers a simple and secure way to enforce least-privilege access through policy-driven workflows without slowing down operations.

Cybersecurity is no longer just an IT concern; it is now a strategic priority in the boardroom. As enterprises operate without a fixed perimeter, depend on cloud providers for infrastructure and build partnerships across digital ecosystems, controlling access to critical systems and data has become essential to doing business. Privileged Access Management (PAM) plays a key role in securing this new environment.

From customer data to proprietary applications and even employees, businesses have migrated massive amounts of critical information to cloud platforms led by AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure. But with over 100 billion terabytes of data on the cloud at the end of 2025, you can go from cloud9 to under the clouds in a matter of seconds.

A notable statistic continues to shape the cybersecurity research landscape: the human element remains involved in roughly 60% of all confirmed breaches. That’s according to the 2025 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR), which found that social engineering actions like phishing, pretexting, and credential misuse are consistently intertwined with today’s most common attack paths, even when they are not the first visible technical vector.
