Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

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.

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.

In every corner of today’s enterprise, teams are under pressure to do more—faster. IT must deliver exceptional service, Security must contain threats in real time, and Risk teams must keep up with a constantly shifting regulatory landscape. These responsibilities are only growing, while the complexity and sprawl of endpoints, tools, and data sources continue to challenge even the most mature organizations.

As AI adoption accelerates across industries, the pressure to ensure responsible and compliant use is growing just as fast. Conversations around AI governance, once niche, are now central to boardroom strategy, legal risk assessments, and day-to-day operations. ‍ While organizations widely acknowledge the need for clear oversight, many of them are struggling to keep up. In our latest survey of industry leaders, half of the respondents said they feel overwhelmed by AI regulations.

Human error is one of the most common causes leading to data loss or data breaches. In the ITIC report, they state that 64 % of downtime incidents have their roots in human errors. If you think that in SaaS environments all your data is safe, you need to think once again.

In today’s digital-first world, APIs serve as the core infrastructure of modern business. They power mobile applications, facilitate critical cloud integrations, and support digital transformation initiatives. It's therefore understandable that 73% of CISOs consider API security a top or critical concern. However, a recent survey of 300 security leaders uncovers a troubling paradox: a large gap between awareness and action.

Cloud apps make work easier, but they also open the door to new security risks. This blog unpacks everything you need to know, like: what is CASB in cyber security, how it works, and why it matters. We break down the core pillars of CASB, share real-world use cases, and help you understand the benefits it brings to your business.
