The AWS cloud platform is one of the most used cloud platforms in the world. It gives companies a level of flexibility with its myriad of uses but it is not without its own challenges, namely, maintaining security.

Amazon Security Lake is a new service from Amazon Web Services (AWS) that is designed to help organizations improve their security posture by automating the collection, normalization, and consolidation of security-related log and event data from integrated AWS services and third-party services (Source Partners). By centralizing all the security data in a single location, organizations can gain greater visibility and identify potential threats more quickly.

Elastic is pleased to announce that we have recently achieved the AWS Security Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Competency Partner status with specialization in Threat and Detection Response (SIEM, SOAR, and XDR). This recognition highlights our commitment to providing you, our customers, with advanced security capabilities that can help you protect your sensitive data and applications in the cloud.

As businesses increasingly embrace cloud computing to enhance their operations, the need for robust cybersecurity measures becomes paramount. Traditional cybersecurity approaches often fall short in protecting cloud environments against ever-evolving cyber threats. This is why today we are excited to announce that we are expanding our CleanINTERNET® service to the cloud.

CrowdStrike has pioneered the use of artificial intelligence (AI) since we first introduced AI-powered protection to replace signature-based antivirus over 10 years ago, and we’ve continued to deeply integrate it across our platform since. We combine the best in technology with the best of human expertise to protect customers and stop breaches.

Today you look at the Global/Multi-site Enterprise Security Architecture of an organization and see a myriad of concerns. Increased levels of complexity, difficulties managing multiple third parties, difficulties implementing consistent levels of security, and so on. This makes it imperative for organizations to identify opportunities to simplify, streamline, and generally improve their infrastructure wherever possible. Managing the level of complexity is becoming increasingly difficult.

Cloud Native Application Protection Platforms – or CNAPP solutions – are steadily gaining traction as the best solutions to address Cloud Native security. Regardless of your cloud adoption maturity (whether you’re PoC-ing some services in the cloud, running a few applications, or fully embracing this new era), We’re sure you have likely already noticed that cloud-native security is different from IT-managed data center security. But how exactly is it different?

Security misconfigurations are very common security risks, not just in web applications but also in APIs. They have been consistently part of the OWASP Top 10 Web Application Vulnerabilities. They were part of the original OWASP Top 10 API Security Risks published in 2019 and have now made it to the updated 2023 list. Security misconfiguration maintains its 7th rank in OWASP Top 10 API 2023RC owing to its widespread prevalence, easy exploitability, and easy detectability.

Launching a mobile app in Bahrain, whether for iOS or Android, requires careful consideration of security measures. According to the World Bank, mobile phone penetration in Bahrain reached 131% of the population in 2021. This indicates that there were more mobile phone subscriptions than the total population, suggesting that many individuals in Bahrain own multiple mobile devices or have multiple subscriptions.
