Your password manager might be closing up shop, putting your digital security at risk. In recent months, two major tech players – Dropbox and Microsoft – have discontinued their built-in password manager features. If you’ve been relying on Microsoft Authenticator or Dropbox Password, it’s now time to decide how you’ll protect your accounts going forward.

File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) is a process that provides security by monitoring and verifying changes made to critical files, directories, and system configurations in an IT environment. This is accomplished by taking the current state of files, operating system binaries, application files, configuration files, logs, or sensitive data, and comparing them against a known and trusted baseline.

Third-party attacks have emerged as one of the most critical threats in the modern cyber landscape. Adversaries increasingly exploit vulnerabilities within external vendors, suppliers, contractors, and service providers to gain indirect access to target organizations, often with severe consequences. These breaches can lead to significant data loss, operational disruption, regulatory penalties, and reputational damage.

At WatchGuard, we’re committed to helping managed service providers (MSPs) and businesses of all sizes simplify security while scaling for growth. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our next-generation Firebox rackmount appliances, the Firebox M Series.

The software security landscape is evolving faster than ever, and AI is accelerating this change. As generative and embedded AI become core to how software is developed, tested, and deployed, security must adapt to protect an entirely new layer of risk. At Mend.io, we’ve spent the past year reimagining what Application Security Testing (AST) looks like in this new reality.

Picture your online shopping site overwhelmed with fake orders, your customer accounts being drained one after another, or your essential APIs flooded by an endless wave of automated attacks. This is the reality businesses face today—thanks to a fully automated army of cyber criminals determined to cause harm. In this digital bot invasion, businesses of all kinds are under urgent pressure to establish defenses that effectively fight this digital threat.
