The insurance sector is in the middle of a cybersecurity storm. In 2024, Indusface analyzed over 495 million attacks targeting insurance websites and APIs. The findings were alarming: attackers are no longer spraying and praying; they’re precise, persistent, and increasingly automated. Here’s what the data showed: Insurance companies, which handle high volumes of personal and financial data, cannot afford security gaps.

Several years ago, a security researcher discovered a vulnerability in Google Chrome that allowed fake domains to bypass the browser’s security measures. The researcher registered a domain that appeared as “xn--80ak6aa92e.com” but displayed as “apple.com” in the browser, demonstrating how easy it was to deceive users. This is just one example of what’s known as a homograph attack, or sometimes a ‘look-a-like domain’.

One of the confidentiality concerns associated with AI is that third parties will use your data inputs to train their models. When companies use inputs for training, the inputs may later become or inform outputs, potentially exposing confidential information to other people.

Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups are not a new scourge. These sophisticated, state-sponsored cyber adversaries, with deep pockets and highly advanced technical skills, conduct prolonged and targeted attacks to infiltrate networks, exfiltrate sensitive data, and disrupt critical infrastructure.

As cyber threats evolve, so must the strategies and frameworks that protect the data and systems that are at the heart of national defense, intelligence, and security. At a time when cyber threats are becoming more sophisticated, the need to protect national security systems (NSS) has never been more critical. With this in mind, the Committee on National Security Systems (CNSS) was formed to oversee cybersecurity standards for some of the most vital and sensitive U.S. government infrastructures.

As many of you may know, MITRE’s DHS contract to manage the CVE and CWE programs expired on April 16, 2025. While emergency funding has since been restored for a short time, the long-term future of these programs still remains uncertain. Understandably, this situation has raised concerns throughout the cybersecurity community about the stability and continuity of vulnerability tracking and management systems that many organizations have come to rely upon.
