Every year, business owners grapple with the same question: how can I keep my data safe? The cost of a data leak can quickly escalate to over $7 million per incident, not to mention the damage to a business’s brand reputation and competitive advantage. And, unfortunately, cyber attacks are getting more sophisticated every year. There are many solutions on the market to help businesses protect their information.
Passwords are an easy way to implement an authentication mechanism in which the user is asked to enter a string of characters (that he had chosen) to log in to his accounts. We will cover brute force attacks, types and examples in this blog article.
None of us want to look into a production audit system, as this most likely happens after a security breach or a security incident. Over the years, people have come up with many ideas to see what applications are doing. Almost all databases keep event logs to prevent data loss. Systems such as Kubernetes generate events for every action, and applications that probably run in your production also implement some structured logging for the same reason.

When scanning an image you probably want to scan for both operating system vulnerabilities and vulnerabilities in the application dependencies (like npm, pom.xml, package.json etc), in order to get a full picture of the security issues within your images. Until now, when using the Snyk Container test/monitor commands to scan images you had to specify the --app-vulns flag in order to scan for application vulnerabilities.
Reddit is a good place to stay in the loop when it comes to web development news, and if you’re like me, you probably follow subreddits like r/node or r/javascript. I recently found a great way to build a Zapier Reddit integration with just my JavaScript knowledge — so I can share those trending Reddit posts in my team’s channel. In this article you’ll learn.
