Trustwave has significantly enhanced its Microsoft Azure Marketplace offering with the addition of three security solutions that will help clients meet their Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC). Starting immediately, Trustwave MXDR for Microsoft, MXDR Elite for Microsoft with Co-Managed SOC, and MailMarshal with Microsoft O365 are Azure Benefits Eligible in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace.

Most people imagine hackers, ransomware, or harmful software when they hear about cybersecurity threats. However, a quieter danger often comes from within — insider threats. These might include upset employees, external contractors, or even innocent users tricked by scams like credential phishing. Detecting insider threats is one of the toughest and most vital parts of cybersecurity today. This is where Extended Detection and Response (XDR) comes into play.

Almost a decade after its discovery, the critical remote code execution vulnerability known as CVE-2016-10033 continues to pose a significant threat to web applications worldwide. In this post, we explain why it's so dangerous and the essential steps to protect your systems from this critical exposure in 2025.

The cybersecurity landscape has undergone dramatic transformation since the early days of the Internet. What began as a revolutionary communication platform has evolved into a complex battleground where defenders struggle to keep pace with increasingly sophisticated threats. Understanding this evolution is crucial for organizations seeking to regain the defender’s advantage in an era of exponential digital growth.

Until a decade or so ago, it was sufficient for security teams to use firewalls, antivirus, and intrusion detection to secure their business network. Today’s application environments have expanded beyond traditional perimeters to include APIs, open-source software, third-party modules, and AI-generated code. This greatly increases the attack surface and need for application risk management that’s holistic and automated.

Widespread implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) in security presents a paradox. On one hand, it helps security experts combat advanced threats at scale. On the other hand, AI is also contributing to the scale of sophistication of adversaries' threat campaigns. To fight fire with fire, organizations are increasingly automating security processes to make up for the uneven playing field on which they find themselves.

It’s tempting to view bug bounty programs as a cheat code – an enticing shortcut to uncover vulnerabilities by tapping into the creativity of the global security community. Is there really any to invest in your own testing for vulnerabilities? But while these programs can surface critical flaws that traditional testing might miss, they’re inherently reactive and can be limited in scope.

In today's workplace, communication tools like Slack or Microsoft Teams are essential for staying connected at work. However, as orchestration and automation needs increase, so does the volume of notifications flooding these channels. What’s meant to streamline work can quickly become overwhelming. We call it "ChatOps fatigue" - when teams get so many alerts, they start tuning them out.

Gartner has officially declared it: External Attack Surface Management (EASM) is obsolete. To many, this announcement may come as a surprise. For us at IONIX, it’s confirmation of what we’ve known and been advocating for over the past two years. We’ve spoken with hundreds of enterprises.

The rate of adoption for cloud computing has grown steadily across many industries, driven by the need for flexibility, innovation and cost efficiency. One of the key verticals that has fully embraced cloud technology is the financial services sector. Cloud is particularly suited to this industry as it allows for more efficient storage, faster processing of large amounts of data, and consolidation of records which gives firms the ability to accurately analyse data.
