The aviation industry relies on a complex web of players and digital systems to fly passengers safely around the world. Billions of data points flow across this vast interconnected ecosystem – from cloud-based ticketing apps and customer experience portals, to third-party vendors and technology systems, to airport ground operations and in-flight aircraft.

As many of us know, there are a lot of guides and information on penetration testing applications on Windows and Linux. Unfortunately, a step-by-step guide doesn’t exist in the macOS domain to help us through the penetration testing process. This means we had to spend even more time searching the web and experimenting with different tools and techniques to find the most effective approach for our testing.

You’re reading the CyberArk blog (and we thank you for that), so you’re likely familiar with the name Theresa Payton. The cybersecurity visionary, first female White House CIO, best-selling author and founder and CEO of Fortalice Solutions is a powerful industry voice, blending her frontline cybercrime fighting experience with cutting-edge insights to help organizations safely navigate the evolving threat landscape.

Would you bet your business on the strength of every employee’s password? If you haven’t deployed business-grade MFA and credentials management throughout your organization, you are probably on the losing end of that bet.

In a rapidly digitalizing world, data and identity security have never been more paramount. As organizations adapt to this reality, one domain witnessing significant evolution is loan origination. The advent of sophisticated technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI) and biometrics, has made it possible to implement robust identity verification systems. Enter Face Trace, an innovative biometric face verification product that is reshaping the future of secure financial transactions.

CEO and Co-Founder of Entitle, Ron Nissim recently had the opportunity to be a guest speaker on the renowned podcast, "Identity at the Center." Hosted by industry experts Jim McDonald and Jeff Steadman, this informative podcast focuses on identity security within the context of identity and access management (IAM). With their extensive experience in the field, Jim and Jeff bring listeners insightful conversations, industry news, and interviews with key figures from the identity management industry.

Biometrics revolutionizes the authentication landscape by leveraging unique biological characteristics, such as fingerprints, iris patterns, and facial features. Unlike traditional methods, biometrics provides a highly reliable and secure means of identity verification. Among these modalities, face recognition emerges as a convenient and non-intrusive approach that ensures robust security while enhancing user experience.

While generative AI offers powerful tools for cyber defenders, it’s also enabled cyber attackers to innovate and up the ante when it comes to threats such as malware, vulnerability exploitation and deep fake phishing. All this and we’re still just in the early days of the technology.
