Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Nowadays, cybersecurity is more than just a technical issue; it has become a strategic element for companies. However, finding the right balance between protecting data and leveraging it to achieve business goals remains a significant challenge.

Level Up Your Security Game: Time for a Mindset Reset! Hey everyone, and welcome! If you're involved in keeping your organization safe online these days, you're in the right place. For years, security felt like building a super strong castle with thick walls and a deep moat, hoping the bad guys would just stay outside. But let's be real, in our multi-cloud world, that castle is starting to look a little... outdated. Think about it: your apps and data aren't neatly tucked away in one place anymore.

In a field flooded with tools, buzzwords, and compliance checklists, critical thinking is what cuts through the noise. It’s not just about following frameworks – its about asking the right questions. How does this control actually reduce risk? Is this alert meaningful, or just noise? What’s the intent behind the regulation, and how does it apply to my environment? Cybersecurity isn’t static. Threats evolve. So do the technologies and motivations behind them.

The proliferation of AI has rapidly introduced many new software technologies, each with its own potential misconfigurations that can compromise information security. Thus the mission of UpGuard Research: discover the vectors particular to a new technology and measure its cyber risk. This investigation looks at llama.cpp, an open-source framework for using large language models (LLMs).

The Network and Information Security 2 (NIS 2) directive is a successor to the original NIS directive. Its purpose is to strengthen the cybersecurity posture of the businesses and organizations it covers across different sectors. ‍ NIS 2 expands on the original directive with notable changes and updates aimed at consolidating and strengthening cybersecurity practices in EU Member States.

Due to recent events happening worldwide, the US specifically, many people are looking for European tech companies to move away from big tech and switch to more private, secure solutions that value our data rather than profit from it. Moving away from any service can be challenging, and with companies like Google monopolizing the tech world, finding alternatives can seem almost impossible.

For the past six years, I’ve had the unique privilege of contributing to and witnessing the evolution of Sysdig Agent. As a Technical Writer, I create educational content that helps Sysdig customers get the most value out of it. The Sysdig Agent, which began as a simple sniffer probing system calls, has transformed into a powerful defender of cyber threats and vulnerabilities, safeguarding workloads across regions—and even underwater in submarines! How cool is that?
