Fumbling with an app when you’re already stressed? We know the struggle. Also, is it just us, or does it always happen when you’re already having a bad day?

DIE is the notion that an immutable workload should not change during runtime; therefore, any observed change is potentially evident of malicious activity, also commonly referred to as Drift. Container Drift Detection provides an easy way to prevent attacks at runtime by simply following security best practices of immutability and ensuring containers aren’t modified after deployment in production.

As organizations grow and more endpoints are added across the enterprise, they create an increasingly broad attack surface sophisticated attackers are looking to compromise. According to the 2019 Endpoint Security Trends Report 70% of breaches originate at the endpoint¹. That is likely because endpoints typically represent the Intersection between humans and machines creating vulnerable points of entry for cybercriminals. This is why it is increasingly important to secure your endpoints.

The recent LockBit group take down has shown the world at large the cost of cybercrime. Initially it was reported that just over $100 million had been gathered through the nefarious acts of this particular group but, as I suspected, that initial figure was just a drop in the ocean. It turns out that the real figure was in excess of $1 billion dollars over the last four years, and I still suspect this may be more.

At CrowdStrike, we are relentlessly researching and developing new technologies to outpace new and sophisticated threats, track adversaries’ behavior and stop breaches. As today’s adversaries continue to become faster and more advanced, the speed of enterprise detection and response is paramount. It is also a challenge for today’s organizations, which face mounting attack volumes amid a global shortage of cybersecurity practitioners.

The Roman philosopher Seneca once said, “Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.” In Vegas, when you are on a roll, you are on a roll. To beat the odds, you must be smart and disciplined. Whether winning big at the tables or championships on the basketball court, there is no better feeling. Often athletes are asked what it means to win and they often don’t have the words to describe it. Winning, regardless of the endeavor, almost always is a team effort.

Veracode is pleased to announce the availability of Veracode Fix capability in Veracode Scan for VS Code. Now developers can discover and remediate security flaws using Veracode’s Generative AI-powered tools directly from their Integrated Development Environment (IDE). According to the Veracode State of Software Security, 45.9% of organizations have critical security debt.
