Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Two months since I joined Detectify and I’ve realized something: API security is a completely different game from web application security. And honestly? I think a lot of teams don’t see this yet.

Remote work is no longer a contingency – it’s the operating norm. Yet the security posture for that work often leans on virtual desktops as a default, even when the workforce is dominated by bring‑your‑own‑device (BYOD) users and short‑term contractors. Virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) can centralize risk, but it can also centralize failure, expand the admin plane, and add latency that users will work around.

Static code analysis wasn’t always built into the development process. That means most bugs were detected during testing, after the code was already merged and deployed. By that point, fixing issues was time-consuming, expensive, and risky. Small mistakes slipped into production. Security gaps widened and quality suffered. Static analysis shifts all of that left by bringing security and quality checks into the earliest stages of development.

Basic Authentication is becoming obsolete for Atlassian APIs in 2025. With Atlassian enforcing token expiration and stricter security standards, it’s time to switch to modern methods like OAuth 2.0, JWT, or API Keys. miniOrange makes this migration seamless with secure, centralized, and auditable API access. Strengthen your Jira integrations while staying compliant and future-ready.

Secure your Jira environment without disrupting workflows. With miniOrange, enforce 2FA only where it’s needed — customers logging in directly — while employees using SSO skip redundant prompts. Achieve strong protection, seamless user experience, and complete admin control. Strengthen Jira security the smart, adaptive way.

Organizations are modernizing their IT infrastructure. On-premises environments are no longer the preferred choice for them, as they are expensive and hard to manage. Because of this, organizations are moving to cloud-based environments for smoother business operations. But moving data, applications, and workloads from traditional platforms to the cloud is anything but easy. It requires careful assessment, technical precision, and risk management.

The cybersecurity landscape has evolved, but many endpoint tools have not. Most still focus on known threats and signatures, blocking familiar malware and flagging suspicious files. They rely on static models that can only go so far. That approach worked for yesterday’s threats, but not for today’s attackers.

What if you hired about 100 new employees for every one you already had, and then, on a whim, gave them all admin rights? Sure, these fresh hires would likely be brilliant and hungry to make an impression. But they wouldn’t always know the rules. Some would make mistakes. Others might take liberties. Before long, it’d be bedlam. That’s what’s happening right now inside financial services institutions.

Today marks a strategic leap forward in LevelBlue’s mission to become the most complete cybersecurity partner on the market. I’m excited to announce that LevelBlue has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Cybereason, a global leader in Extended Detection and Response (XDR), digital forensics and incident response (DFIR), and elite threat intelligence. Together we’ll deliver unified, proactive, and outcome-driven security solutions around the globe.

Organizations continue their digital transformation, with APIs now serving as the main communication links between applications, platforms, services, and partners. The widespread use of APIs introduces new security risks despite their common presence. The growing number of APIs significantly increases the cyber risks that security teams must address as they keep up with technological advances.
