Are LLMs becoming messengers for attackers? #ai #cybersecurity

AI assistants with broad enterprise access are creating a new attack vector. Chris Luft and Matt Bromiley discuss the Gemini Jack vulnerability, where attackers used prompt injection to turn Google's AI assistant into an unwitting accomplice in data exfiltration.

In the Digital Era, Security Starts with Identity

A few years ago, an IP address was enough to identify users online ‒ almost like a physical address that indicated where they were located. Today, however, users no longer rely on a single device or location, making it far more difficult for organizations to recognize who is accessing their systems, from where, and with what level of risk.

Cyber Hygiene and Compliance: Why You Need More Than Just Best Practices

Over the years, corporate digital infrastructure has grown in terms of both complexity and scale. As a result, cybersecurity has become increasingly critical within organizations.
