The majority of global organizations say they have been negatively impacted by a breach in their supply chain. In our latest survey, 81% of global organizations reported being negatively impacted by a third-party cyber breach.

Cyber Awareness/Data Privacy Week 2025 has once again come and gone, and provides a stark reminder to take a closer look at your organization’s approach to cybersecurity. This annual event is not only a call to action for IT professionals but also a critical learning opportunity for everyday office workers. With cyber threats evolving daily, safeguarding your organization’s data is everyone’s collective responsibility.

The rapid rise of generative AI (genAI) applications is reshaping enterprise technology strategies, pushing security leaders to reevaluate risk, compliance, and data governance policies. The latest surge in DeepSeek usage is a wake-up call for CISOs, illustrating how quickly new genAI tools can infiltrate the enterprise. In only 48 hours, Netskope Threat Labs observed a staggering 1,052% increase in DeepSeek usage across our customer base.

Unfortunately, storing, saving, and backing up our files is not a 100% guarantee that our files will remain secure forever. We may accidentally delete our accounts, forget passwords to old backups, or worse, experience data loss due to corruption, hardware failure, or cyberattacks. It’s not just our personal files that we must keep in mind.

Berachain is a novel blockchain created to solve consensus mechanism incentive misalignment. For traditional Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchains, users have to lock their assets in order to participate in the security model and earn staking rewards. This results in incentive misalignment as the projects building on these blockchains want activity and volumes – this competes with the native security mechanism of staking which requires assets to be locked up.

Early in the cyberattack kill chain, reconnaissance enables attackers to assemble critical network information to plan a tailored attack strategy. In this phase, adversaries aim to map out networks and their users, and locate system vulnerabilities, without setting off alarms. Proactive monitoring and early detection of this activity can disrupt attackers in their tracks and lower the risk of a breach.

Recently, I started working with my children's school to enhance their online safety measures and develop a digital mindfulness course in collaboration with their digital literacy lead. This experience highlighted the fact that our schools are not only expected to provide safe places of learning but also extend that safety into the digital spaces.
