Unmatched Coverage for Cloud and Hybrid Workloads: Sysdig's Next Generation Instrumentation

In today’s rapidly changing and evolving cloud-native environments, security and infrastructure teams face challenges ranging from managing complex deployments to ensuring capability across their entirety of their diverse infrastructure. EDR and XDR tools cannot provide comprehensive coverage of cloud workloads, making them fundamentally unsuited for cloud security.

Samsung Introduces Million-Dollar Bug Bounty for Critical Galaxy Vulnerabilities

Samsung has introduced a groundbreaking bug bounty program offering up to $1,000,000 for discovering critical vulnerabilities in its mobile devices. This initiative, named the 'Important Scenario Vulnerability Program (ISVP),' underscores Samsung's commitment to bolstering the security of its Galaxy devices. The program focuses on vulnerabilities related to arbitrary code execution, device unlocking, data extraction, arbitrary application installation, and bypassing device protections.

Beyond the Noise: Achieving Accurate API Inventory with AI

The prevalence of APIs in today's digital environment is undeniable. They are crucial for modern applications, enabling seamless communication and data exchange between different software components. The rise of AI and machine learning has further accelerated API adoption, not only for accessing data and resources but also for rapid API development and deployment.

A security expert's view on Gartner's generative AI insights

Snyk’s goal has always been to empower developers to build fast but safely. This is why we created the developer security category and why we were amongst the first advocates of “shifting left.” Now, AI has changed the equation. According to Gartner, over 80% of enterprises will have used generative AI APIs or models, or deployed their own AI model, by 2026.

Responsible Cloud Migration - Overcoming the Data Security Challenge

Since the world went digital the value of data has been unprecedented, and as businesses race to adopt the latest tech to optimise and monetise their data it is set to increase in value at an exponential rate. However, whilst data is widely regarded as an organisation's main asset, data accountability is rarely owned, which can lead to errors that incur fines, loss in consumer trust, and impact brand reputation. To ensure best practice, organisations should apply caution when considering their next step in digital transformation, such as when migrating data to the cloud.

Salt Security Continues to Innovate as Leader in API Security

The API security landscape is changing rapidly, and cybercriminals are becoming increasingly sophisticated. According to the Salt Labs State of API Security Report 2024, API security incidents have more than doubled in the past 12 months, while API usage is rapidly increasing. Organizations are finding it challenging to keep up with the threats associated with expanding API ecosystems and fully understand their complex behavioral attributes.

The Importance of API Security Governance in a Dynamic Threat Landscape

As noted in the 2024 Gartner Market Guide for API Protection“API security governance is an emerging capability. It allows the administrator of the tool to define and enforce security policies. Unlike posture management, this is a top-down enforcement. It also allows for compliance reports for specific regulations to be generated automatically.” This capability is becoming increasingly important as organizations face a constantly evolving threat landscape.

Introducing our report, CISO Perspectives: Separating the realityof AI fromthe hype

The explosion of AI has ignited both excitement and apprehension across various industries. While AI is undeniably having a positive impact on engineering and customer service teams, cybersecurity and IT practitioners remain cautious. Concerns about data privacy, the inflexibility of disparate tools, and the sensitive nature of many mission-critical workflows—which, more often than not, require some level of human oversight—fuel a deep mistrust of LLMs by these teams.

AI Tools Have Increased the Sophistication of Social Engineering Attacks

The Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA) has warned that threat actors are increasingly using AI to enhance phishing and other social engineering attacks, Channel News Asia reports. The CSA’s report found that cybercriminals are selling tools that automate these attacks, allowing unskilled threat actors to launch sophisticated attacks.
