The supply chain for any product has several moving parts. Each activity in the supply chain plays a role in the flow that begins with sourcing a product's raw materials and ends with delivering the finished goods to a customer. As with many other areas of modern business, digital technologies are redefining supply chains. With more technology comes increased cyber risks.

Egnyte stores, analyzes, organizes, and secures billions of files and petabytes of data from millions of users. On average, we observe more than a million API requests per minute. As we scale, we have to address challenges associated with balancing throughput for individual users and delivering exceptional quality of service. For example, some Egnyte hosted content that is publicly shared (via our share file and folder links feature) can suddenly go viral.

Keeping up with today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape is an ongoing journey for software development enterprises in cloud-native environments, as many struggle to keep their assets and customers secure while keeping up with the competitive pace of software delivery in cloud native environments. Earlier this summer WhiteSource hosted a roundtable discussion with HackerOne, AWS, and IGT about the new security challenges enterprises face as they shift to a digital native environment.

Greetings everyone! With the recent launch of our Early Access preview of 1Password 8 on macOS I wanted to take a few minutes to pull back the curtain on this software development project that is over two years in the making. Before we get into that, though, I think a bit of backstory is warranted.

This blog series expands upon a presentation given at DEF CON 29 on August 7, 2021. In Part 1 of this series, we provided an overview of OAuth 2.0 and two of its authorization flows, the authorization code grant and the device authorization grant. In Part 2 of this series, we described how a phishing attack could be carried out by exploiting the device authorization grant flow.

LockBit Ransomware(a.k.a. ABCD) is yet another ransomware group operating in the RaaS(Ransomware-as-a-Service) model, following the same architecture as other major threat groups, like REvil. This threat emerged in September 2019 and is still being improved by its creators. In June 2021, the LockBit group announced the release of LockBit 2.0, which included a new website hosted on the deep web, as well as a new feature to encrypt Windows domains using group policy.
