Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2024 - Erich Kron | AI and Deepfakes

AI and AI-generated deepfakes are proving to be the most intriguing, and in some ways troubling, recent advances in technology. No wonder one of my favorite characters from “The Inside Man” series, AJ, is so enthralled by them.AJ is a friendly, funny, unstoppable security dynamo with a deep love of all things tech. But as AJ learns through his journey in the events of “The Inside Man,” AI can have a dark side.

7 CASB Use Cases to Protect Cloud-Based Resources

Cybersecurity leaders already know the importance of a data loss prevention (DLP) solution. They also know DLP has its limits. As cloud applications have grown more common, they’ve introduced gaps in the DLP shield. SaaS apps present new opportunities for data leakage, accidental sharing, and insider threats. To plug those gaps, you need a cloud access security broker (CASB).

CASB Requirements: What You Need to Know to Secure Your Cloud

In the modern cloud landscape, the question isn’t whether or not you need a cloud access security broker (CASB) — it’s how to choose the right one and implement it effectively. Malicious attacks are on the rise, and so are remote and hybrid workforces, making it more important than ever to be proactive about data security.

Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) Solution | DSPM vs. CSPM

What is DSPM? Data Security Posture Management, or DSPM refers to the practice of assessing and managing an organization’s overall data security posture. It involves monitoring, evaluating, and continuously improving the effectiveness of data security controls and measures in place to protect sensitive information. What is Data Security Posture Management? It provides a holistic view of an organization’s data security status and helps identify vulnerabilities, gaps, and areas for improvement.

Encryption at rest in Elastic Cloud: Bring your own key with Google Cloud

Now that we’ve introduced Elastic Cloud encryption at rest and walked you through setting it up in AWS and Azure, it’s time to get you set up in Google Cloud. In this final blog of the series, we will explain how encryption at rest works with Google Cloud Key Management Service (KMS) and then show you how to apply a Google Cloud KMS key to an Elastic Cloud Hosted deployment for encrypting data and snapshots at rest.

How To Detect Spyware on an Android Phone

You can detect spyware on an Android phone by recognizing the following signs: your phone suddenly becomes slow, the battery drains quickly, unfamiliar apps appear, it overheats frequently, you receive strange messages or it makes weird noises during phone calls. Spyware is a form of malware installed onto your device without your knowledge. Once spyware is installed, a cybercriminal can spy on you and collect private information like passwords or credit card numbers.

70-83% of All Internet Traffic is API Traffic! #api #traffic #internettrends

Did you know that 70-83% of all internet traffic consists of API calls? In today's interconnected world, APIs are the invisible backbone driving your favorite apps, from maps to messaging platforms. This video breaks down the significance of API traffic and how it shapes the way we interact with technology daily. Discover why APIs are more critical than ever and how they power the digital experiences we rely on.

Why Choose a Cloud-Native Approach to Fend Off API Attacks

As organizations adopt a “digital-first” mentality, APIs have essentially become the backbone of modern applications, providing seamless integration between services, platforms, and third-party systems. For businesses, APIs help streamline processes and for consumers, APIs enable smooth and easily accessible digital services. However, an increased reliance on and growing number of APIs has also made them prime targets for cyberattacks.
