Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

It's almost a tradition in cybersecurity circles to say the Board of Directors' ignorance or indifference on the topic is one of the biggest impediments an organization must overcome to have better security. But is this still the case?

For the fourth year running, in 2025, the IBM X-Force Threat Intelligence Index crowned the manufacturing sector as the number one targeted industry for cybercrime, representing 26% of incidents. The problem is so bad that manufacturing has even managed to defy malware's decline, with attackers exploiting the industry's legacy technology to deploy ransomware at a massive scale. But why is the manufacturing sector so vulnerable? What unique cybersecurity risks does it face?

Defined by Gartner as the next evolution of breach and attack simulation (BAS), adversarial exposure validation (AEV) is a security solution that continuously assesses how well security controls prevent, detect, and respond to real-world adversarial behaviors—across multiple environments and the entire attack lifecycle.

Extortionware involves stealing sensitive data from an organization and threatening to leak it. It’s become a core tactic in the modern ransomware playbook, and if your business holds valuable or confidential information, it’s a threat you can’t afford to ignore. Today, we’re taking a closer look at what extortionware is, how it works, and why it’s become one of the most difficult cyber threats to defend against.

With the recent increase in use and popularity of Large Language Models (LLMs), many organizations are still trying to approach the use of this technology. In this blog, we approach the different log sources that can be potentially used to monitor a local LLM.

A unified endpoint protection platform (EPP) is the essential foundation to a strong cybersecurity strategy. The industry standard for delivering AI-powered cybersecurity is the CrowdStrike Falcon platform, which has become the choice for organizations large and small to automate and consolidate their security across endpoint, identity, cloud, and data.

CyCognito is always seeking additional methods to discover customer external-facing assets. One such resource is an integration with content delivery network (CDN) management systems. Many organizations manage most or all their DNS records with CDNs, as they provide IT and security teams with centralized management visibility.

Securing your applications is vital in today’s fast-moving world of software development. With threats constantly getting smarter, developers need strong tools to identify and fix weaknesses right from the start. Just ask Alex, a developer who once spent a sleepless night fixing a last-minute security flaw. That’s where Veracode SAST comes in. This powerful tool not only scans your source code and binary files but also integrates seamlessly with your IDEs, repositories, and CI/CD pipelines.
