5 Security Red Flags to Watch When Working with Contractors

You monitor employees. You trust contractors. That’s the problem. Contractors have full system access, months to plan their exit, and minimal safeguards in place to stop them. They have the same access to your customer databases, pricing models, and intellectual property as your permanent staff.

Password habits are worsening, but security leaders see a path to passwordless

Poorly managed credentials are among the most stubborn problems for security and IT teams, and authentication is one of the areas where the Access-Trust Gap is widest. But even as credential-based attacks remain a major threat to security, there are positive signs that companies are moving toward a passwordless future.

Django Vulnerabilities Expose Apps to SQL Injection and DoS Attacks

The Django Software Foundation has rolled out important security fixes addressing two serious vulnerabilities that could let attackers manipulate databases and disrupt application availability. The vulnerabilities such as CVE-2025-64459 (SQL Injection) and CVE-2025-64458 (Denial of Service), were found in commonly used functions of the Django web framework. These vulnerabilities affect how Django processes queries and handles redirects, especially when user-supplied input is not properly validated.

Adopting cold-war tactics for AI deep fakes?

The AI arms race in deepfake detection has a critical problem: the technology can't keep up. In this episode, Navroop Mitter, CEO of ArmorText, discusses why the industry is shifting away from relying on AI detection alone. A recent study from SKKU in South Korea found that zero out of sixteen top deepfake detection technologies could reliably identify deepfakes in real-world conditions. They worked fine in controlled lab settings, but failed when it mattered most.

The UK's Four-Step Framework for Supply Chain Resilience

Ransomware attacks can ripple through supply chains, causing serious disruption and massive financial consequences for multiple businesses in one fell swoop. As such, CISOs are spending more time considering how to keep operations secure as ecosystems span across dozens, if not hundreds, of vendors, contractors, and digital dependencies.

Optimize Your Application Security with Custom WAF Rules

Your website is unique, and so are the attacks against it. Generic Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules protect everyone a little, but leave your site exposed to specialized attacks. Custom WAF rules are your line of defense against targeted threats—the ones tailored to your specific application, industry, or code base. Key Advantages of Custom WAF Rules.

The Silent Killers: 7 Examples of Mobile Device Security Risks
