Almost all organizations either rely on cloud computing or are planning to adopt cloud computing technologies soon to ensure their businesses remain competitive and gain an edge over the competition. As businesses increasingly rely on cloud services to manage their operations, the complexity of these environments continues to grow, introducing new challenges in maintaining security and compliance. This is where Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) comes into the picture.

A series of critical vulnerabilities has been uncovered in the Common Unix Printing System (CUPS), specifically in the cups-browsed component and related libraries. This vulnerability chain allows remote, unauthenticated attackers to potentially execute arbitrary code with root privileges on affected systems. The discovery highlights significant security risks in a widely-used open-source component and raises crucial questions about legacy system support and security in modern IT environments.

The application security landscape is shifting as organizations move away from a fragmented ecosystem of point solutions towards a unified platform such as the Mend AppSec Platform. Leveraging these platform-specific strengths brings numerous advantages: streamlined workflows, a cross-product workflow engine, a consolidated data model that enhances security posture, and developers that can focus fully on innovation.

NIST 800-53B, Control Baselines for Information Systems and Organizations, offers security and privacy control baselines for the Federal Government. It serves as a companion to NIST Special Publication (SP) 800-53, Revision 5, which outlines security and privacy controls for information systems and organizations.

Azure Container Storage is a cloud-based volume management, deployment, and orchestration service built natively for containers. It integrates with Kubernetes, allowing you to dynamically and automatically provision persistent volumes to store data for stateful applications running on Kubernetes clusters.
