Automated Baseline Enforcement with Falcon for IT

Apr 23, 2025 By CrowdStrike In CrowdStrike
CrowdStrike Falcon for IT automates baseline enforcement and remediation to eliminate the security gaps adversaries exploit. As devices drift from their original secure state—through unauthorized software, missing updates, or policy deviations—Falcon for IT uses real-time telemetry and Dynamic Targeting to surface misconfigurations and highlight non-compliant endpoints. With tools like Charlotte AI, osquery, and native scripting, teams gain instant visibility into deviations, apply targeted remediation at scale, and enforce standards without disrupting end users.

Just-in-time (JIT) access isn’t easy. This Reddit thread of cybersecurity pros surfaces many of the most common JIT headaches — and you may be encountering those same challenges yourself. As noted in the thread, no users should be “swimming in access”, especially as standing privileges and over-permissioned accounts continue to be a major source of breaches. The truth is, many JIT models struggle to keep up with today’s fast-moving, cloud-native environments.

Where Large Language Models (LLMs) meet Infrastructure Identity

Apr 23, 2025 By Diana Jovin In Teleport
Modern infrastructure is already complex, characterized by distributed environments, multi-cloud deployments, and dynamic change. Now add Large Language Models (LLMs) to the mix, and the challenge grows exponentially. Engineering leaders are under pressure to deliver innovation fast, while also safeguarding against breaches, misconfigurations, and human error. That’s why initiatives like eliminating static credentials, enforcing just-in-time access, and reducing SSH key sprawl are gaining traction.

ARMO CADR Uncovers Multiple Crypto Miner Attack Operations

Apr 23, 2025 By Amit Schendel In ARMO
The best way to understand real-world attacks is to observe them in the wild. Following this principle, our research team set up a decoy Kubernetes workload designed to attract malicious actors – a honeypot in a Kubernetes cluster we named the “Honey-pod.” Inside this pod, we deployed Apache Druid, a popular open-source analytics database known for its scalability and, unfortunately, for a history of exploitable vulnerabilities.
