Ahead of Rubrik’s inaugural Healthcare Summit on September 12th, I thought it was appropriate to set the stage for what’s coming. Threat actors aren’t going to wait for you to get ready before they launch their attack. They’re banking on you not being able to recover your data—or not being able to recover fast enough—to maximize the damage they leave in their wake.

In late July 2024, the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added two critical vulnerabilities (CVE-2024-4789 and CVE-2024-5217) affecting ServiceNow to its list of known exploited vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities can allow unauthenticated users to execute code remotely, posing severe risks to organizations that use the platform. The potential for unauthorized access and severe data breaches makes addressing these vulnerabilities crucial.

Ransomware attacks have a profound impact on healthcare organizations, extending well beyond financial losses and the disrupted sleep of staff and shareholders. A University of Minnesota School of Public Health study highlighted by The HIPAA Journal reveals that these attacks can lead to higher in-hospital mortality rates for patients admitted during the incidents. Additionally, the study found that hospital volumes dropped by 17%-25% during the first week of an attack.

Have you heard about SOPS? If you have already been in a situation where you needed to share sensitive information with your teammates, this is for you. Today, let's have a look at how it works and how to use it with various key management services such as AWS KMS and HashiCorp Vault.

The Enterprise OPA Platform’s low-code policy builder empowers product owners and security analysts to design, review, and experiment on application permission logic directly.

The GRC Group ("GRC"or the "Group"), a leading provider of software and tech-enabled services to manage business risks and regulatory compliance, has today acquired Pentest People Ltd (“Pentest People”).

Security is a top buying requirement for businesses today. In fact, two-thirds of respondents to our State of Trust survey say that customers, investors, and suppliers are increasingly looking for proof of security and compliance. As concerns around in-house security practices, third-party tools, and access to customer data grow, customer expectations for trust continue to rise. ‍

Over the past decade, Bitcoin’s value has increased more than 200-fold. Similarly, other cryptocurrencies have also seen significant growth, prompting many individuals to engage in mining for profit. This rise in cryptocurrency mining has led to a substantial increase in the use of cryptominers. As organizations increasingly migrate their computing workloads to the cloud for various benefits, attackers have shifted their focus to these cloud resources for cryptocurrency mining.

Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) is an advanced testing method that tests the production environment and analyzes application security at runtime. This type of black box testing identifies real-world vulnerabilities externally without much need for insights into the product provenance of any single component. By simulating real-world attacks in your system, DAST identifies critical security gaps that other vulnerability assessments and static methods might miss.
