AI is transforming businesses — from automated agents performing background workflows, to improved search, to easier access and summarization of knowledge. While we are still early in what is likely going to be a substantial shift in how the world operates, two things are clear: the Internet, and how we interact with it, will change, and the boundaries of security and data privacy have never been more difficult to trace, making security an important topic in this shift.

Imagine building an LLM-powered assistant trained on your developer documentation and some internal guides to quickly help customers, reduce support workload, and improve user experience. Sounds great, right? But what if sensitive data, such as employee details or internal discussions, is included in the data used to train the LLM?

Generative AI is reshaping many aspects of our lives, from how we work and learn, to how we play and interact. Given that it's Security Week, it's a good time to think about some of the unintended consequences of this information revolution and the role that we play in bringing them about.

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. We are excited to share that the update will be ready for preview on April 8th in the Bitsight applications so that everyone can proactively prepare for the RAU.

In a report published by Statista, cybercrime cost the world over $9 trillion in 2024 and is predicted to rise to nearly $14 trillion by 2028. These figures are a deep source of worry for governments and private businesses about what’s next in the cyber threat landscape. The problem is that cyber threats are rising in both volume and scale. More so, the major threats are directed at emerging technologies, aiming to capitalize on weaknesses in emerging AI and ML systems.

About one in three organizations that leverage cloud service providers (CSPs) use Amazon Web Services (AWS), according to November 2024 research from Synergy Research Group. This means two things. One is that when attackers are looking to get the most out of a single exploit, they will likely craft them to target AWS systems. And two, that AWS data security best practices are a timely topic for a wide range of today's organizations.

Maintaining continuous compliance and trust isn't a one-person or one-team job; trust is created and sustained by a network of employees, vendors, auditors, and more. However, working with this extended team can get messy—communication is spread across multiple surfaces, action items are tracked in different documents and tools, and coordination becomes manual and time-consuming.

Canonical OpenStack delivers exceptional cloud infrastructure management capabilities for enterprise organizations. The platform integrates Ubuntu’s trusted stability with powerful tools like Juju and MAAS, creating a simple yet effective approach to cloud operations.

Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) is a cornerstone of web application security, allowing organizations to detect vulnerabilities that are actually exploitable in runtime – minimizing false positives. However, managing security findings across multiple tools can prolong risk assessments, prioritization, and remediation. Jit users who want to leverage Invicti, one of the best DAST solutions in the market, have had to manage security findings in a completely separate interface.
