On July 19, 2024, an issue present in a single content update for the CrowdStrike Falcon sensor impacting Windows operating systems was identified, and a fix was deployed.1 CrowdStrike Intelligence has since observed threat actors leveraging the event to distribute a malicious ZIP archive named crowdstrike-hotfix.zip. The ZIP archive contains a HijackLoader payload that, when executed, loads RemCos.

In a digital landscape teeming with possibilities, safeguarding your business with a robust Internet of Things security framework is paramount. From interconnected devices to data privacy concerns, the stakes are high. Let’s delve into the realm of IoT security and unveil the crucial reasons behind fortifying your business against evolving cyber threats.

Recent research by Arctic Wolf has revealed that, within the last 12 months, 48% of organizations identified evidence of a successful breach within their environment. As The State of Cybersecurity: 2024 Trends Report highlights, “To fully understand the gravity of this statistic, it is important to understand that, although 48% of these environments found evidence of a data breach, that does not inversely mean that 52% of organizations did not suffer a breach.”

In today’s digital landscape, the importance of robust cybersecurity measures cannot be overstated. Yet, despite the clear and present danger posed by cyber threats, many organizations still underinvest in cybersecurity, operating under a false sense of security. This complacency can be incredibly costly, as the financial ramifications of cybersecurity breaches are staggering.

The differences between 1Password and Keeper go a lot deeper than passwords.

A lot has happened since the 2008 financial crisis and credit crunch, including a significant increase in cloud app adoption in financial services and a rise in cyber attacks targeting those apps. To keep the financial sector safe and secure, the EU introduced new rules. Initially, these regulations focused on ensuring banks had enough capital to handle financial problems. However, as cyberattacks became a bigger threat, the EU recognised the need for additional measures.

Attackers are increasingly targeting vulnerabilities within large language models (LLMs) used to recognise and generate text. In response to the growing risk, the recently launched OWASP Top 10 for LLMs covers the key vulnerabilities within these types of AI applications. Read our guide to learn more about the most critical vulnerabilities and how to reduce AI security risks.

As fraudsters are continuously finding new ways to strike, we’re continuously finding new ways to prevent them with controls such as encryption, multi-factor authentication, fraud detection software, etc. But not everyone is aware that it all begins with how electronic devices are designed. With the way Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are laid out and built, to be precise. This assembly is far more important for cybersecurity than you might think.

The intersection of identity, endpoint, and network security is becoming increasingly self-evident. Despite all their efforts, modern organizations continue to struggle to safeguard their data and prevent unauthorized access. The Verizon Data Breach Investigations report for 2024 continues to highlight that human elements were a component of 68% of breaches.

With the threat landscape being on the rise, CISOs need to be much more attentive while building the organization’s security strategy. Constantly arising vulnerabilities, ransomware attacks, critical workflows, outages – all of that require CISOs to stay up to date to security issues and keep their finger on the pulse to change their security strategy once the prerequisites pop up. We’ve been tracking GitHub, GitLab, and Atlassian -related incidents for the latest few years…
