Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

I read this article earlier this week from Jeff Vance and I was buoyed by the refreshing reflection of reality – Jeff really hits the nail on the head. As the CEO of a cyber security start up, we see, hear, and feel these points daily and the fact is that so many larger security or network businesses claim to solve problems that they cannot. Not only is this doing a disservice to customers but to the wider security landscape. Let’s explore this further…

We are excited to announce an extended partnership between CrowdStrike and Cloudflare to bring together Cloudflare Email Security and CrowdStrike Falcon® LogScale. With this integration, joint customers who have both Falcon LogScale and Cloudflare Email Security can now send detection data to be ingested and displayed within their Falcon LogScale dashboard.

One of the most important technology trends in cybersecurity is AI (artificial intelligence). The idea behind AI in cybersecurity is to use AI-enabled software to augment human expertise by rapidly identifying zero day malware, APTs, malwareless attacks, or hacking attempts, reducing the organizations’ incident costs.

Here is a list of all new modules recently added from our community of ethical hackers. You can find a complete list of new vulnerabilities added to Surface Monitoring and Application Scanning by viewing the “What’s New?” section in-tool.

SmokeLoader is a well-known malware family that has been around for more than 10 years. Its main purpose is to download and drop other malware families. However, SmokeLoader's operators also sell plugins that add capabilities to the main module. Those plugins allow an affiliate to collect browser data from infected computers, as well as emails, cookies, passwords, and much more. In this blog post, we'll dissect SmokeLoader's plugins that were received by an infected computer from the botnet "0020".

In the first part of this blog series, we explored the foundational steps required to kickstart a robust security program for any organization’s low-code/no-code development environment within Microsoft Power Platform. We discussed the importance of differentiating between sensitive and non-sensitive data, identifying the makers and builders, and implementing the principle of least privilege access.

When conducting Red Team engagements, more than one Command and Control (C2) framework would typically be used as part of our delivery process and methodology. We would be unintentionally limiting our options if we only had one Command and Control framework to depend upon, which would be less realistic when comparing it to an attack from real threat actors who seem to have infinite time and resources available. The use of multiple Command and Control frameworks is essential.

According to Gartner, cloud spending will reach $597.3 billion by the end of 2023. Whether it’s infrastructure as a service (IaaS), a software as a service cloud application (SaaS), or some other use for the cloud, organizations are finally adopting cloud use models that help increase scalability, reliability, and speed, while reducing overhead costs.
