Sep 8, 2026 By Manu Santamaría Delgado In WatchGuard
The NIST’s changes in how the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) operates have fundamentally shifted how organizations interpret the vulnerabilities published in this go-to registry.

What Is SIEM? How It Works With DLP to Detect Data Threats

Sep 8, 2026 By Chaitali Avadhani In miniOrange
Most security teams don’t lose the fight against data breaches because they lack tools. They lose because their tools don’t talk to each other. This is exactly the loophole that SIEM and DLP were built to close, together. Security information and event management gives you visibility into what’s happening across your entire environment. At the same time, data loss prevention gives you the control to stop sensitive information from leaving in the first place.

What is Identity Governance and Administration (IGA)?

Sep 8, 2026 By Minal Purwar In miniOrange
Enterprises today manage thousands of identities across employees, contractors, applications, APIs, and machine-driven systems. In most environments, identities have become the primary security boundary, yet access remains fragmented, overprovisioned, and difficult to track. According to IBM's X-Force Threat Intelligence Index, identity-based attacks now account for nearly one-third of all intrusions, highlighting how identity has become one of the most targeted layers in modern cybersecurity.

Vulnerability Assessments in an Agentic World: Step-by-Step Guide

Sep 8, 2026 By The Apono Team In Apono
An old package or a misconfigured cloud storage bucket can be identified by a legacy scanner, but it does not account for the unique risk profile of autonomous systems. It cannot confirm that an AI agent with access to your production environment can chain together a CRM read, an email send and a production write using inherited credentials. Your agents are dynamic: they plan, call tools, and act across multiple environments, and some may retain context or long-term memory beyond the original request.
