Attackers targeting the supply chain are "quite predictable in their movements; they want to persist their access, so they're looking for credentials," said Mackenzie Jackson, developer advocate at GitGuardian, who recommends deploying honeytokens to track the predictability of criminals' actions.
It doesn’t matter how big a SOC team is, or how dedicated its members are. There’s no way for people to respond fast enough to stop an attack in progress.
SOC teams need AI—the right models, resources, and data—to automate cybersecurity, so they can handle the volume and sophistication of the threats seen...

Ukrainian cyber defenders warn users for the second time this month to be aware of financially motivated phishing campaigns that load the SmokeLoader malware onto computers. Hackers behind UAC-0006 typically target computers used by accountants and look for banking and credential data.
A top challenge businesses face is the lack of knowledge about what digital assets they have, making it difficult to protect them, respond to attacks, and collect evidence. External threat intelligence and attack surface management are colliding as companies look to respond effectively to threats.
Digital transformation has expanded the attack surface with cloud and SaaS applications and led to more users working outside the corporate network, said Arctic Wolf president and CEO Nick Schneider. Midmarket businesses have prioritized security spending around detection and response.
Pre-RSA social media gaming predicted it. Many predicted they would loath it. And it happened: Discussions at this year's RSA conference again and again came back to generative artificial intelligence - but with a twist. Even some of the skeptics professed their conversion to the temple of AI.
What started more than 30 years ago has become one of the most prevalent and lucrative cyberattacks, with 20% of ransomware attacks damaging reputations beyond repair. Ransomware can now work its way not only through the primary target, but affect the third parties that a business may also be working with.

The rapid adoption of cloud computing in recent years has upended this centralized model. The scalability and cost-effectiveness of public cloud services and SaaS applications has caused healthcare organizations to move significant portions of their digital assets out of the on-premises data center and into the cloud...
Important lessons about security and risk management aren't being learned, remembered and applied by defenders amid organizations' rapid migration to the cloud, according to the finding that just 5% of security rules, on average, trigger 80% of all alerts, threat intelligence group Unit 42 warns.
Microsoft has issued fixes for 114 vulnerabilities, including patching a zero-day flaw being actively exploited by a ransomware group and updating guidance to block a vulnerability from 2013 that was recently exploited for the software supply chain attack on 3CX users, attributed to North Korea.
Most mature security organizations perform some regular penetration testing by internal teams, consulting, or both. However, in today’s realm of fast-moving technology changes and complex on-premises and cloud infrastructure, performing regular pen tests can be challenging for a variety of reasons.
First, most...
A large majority of all vulnerabilities are unexploitable. According to data compiled by Kenna, in 2020, only 2.7% of the vulnerabilities found appeared to be exploitable and only 0.4% of those vulnerabilities were actually observed to be exploited at all.
The prioritization of these low-risk or no-risk...
While so many are focused on vulnerabilities and malware on endpoints, understanding the attack paths an attacker would exploit to hold your business and brand at risk is key. Yes, your web application and webserver matter…but are they your only publicfacing assets?
In this Whitepaper, we uncover:
