As businesses continue to rely on cloud services for all sorts of applications, computing, and storage services, each with its APIs, they dramatically increase their attack surface. It’s a situation that results in prime breeding grounds for cyber threats and, therefore, drives the need for managed detection and response (MDR) services. Consider the software-as-a-service (SaaS) market. It has grown steadily from a $31.4 billion market in 2015 to $232.3 billion in 2024, according to Techopedia.

Imagine being on shift as the guard of a fortress. Your job is to identify threats as they approach the perimeter. The more methods you have for detecting those threats, the better your chances of succeeding. A good security reporting framework works the same way and can help a security team develop the insights needed for an effective threat monitoring strategy.

The cyber threat landscape is continuously evolving and becoming more dangerous with the rise of application attacks and data breaches, putting businesses at greater risk. Verizon’s 2024 Data Breach Investigations Report saw a record-high number of breaches—more than 10,000, doubling the number of breaches it analyzed from 2023.

By 2028, connected Internet of Things (IoT) devices will expand to over 25 billion. Yet, today’s connected devices are raising the stakes for assessing risk and managing cybersecurity. They have significantly expanded the attack surface creating new challenges and vulnerabilities. The need for accurate, rapid information from systems across every industry is essential for business operations.

Operational Technology (OT) is the backbone of our modern world as we know it today. Think about the daily operations of a factory, the precise control of our power grids, and even the supply of clean water to our homes. All of these modern capabilities are made possible and efficient due to OT systems.

API penetration testing, or API pentesting, is a specialised form of security testing focused on identifying and addressing security vulnerabilities within an API (Application Programming Interface). APIs are the backbone of modern web applications, enabling communication between different software systems.

Mobile applications are ubiquitous, but their security can be a concern. Unlike web applications, in a mobile landscape, both the device and the mobile application have a crucial role in security due to increasing cyber threats. Mobile application penetration testing (mobile app pen testing) is a proactive security measure to identify and address vulnerabilities before malicious actors exploit them.
