Unlike other types of security threats, insider threats are complicated because only a few are caused intentionally, and they typically involve valid credential use. Beyond full- and part-time employees, insiders include contractors, vendors, customers, interns, and others who can be working on site or remote....
In the era of digital transformation, banks’ security leaders are grappling with the challenges of maintaining a secure digital ecosystem while keeping costs down. With the explosion of touchpoints and data brought on by the digitization of money and services, the banking industry is now a prime target for...
UEBA solutions ingest operational data from many sources and use analytics such as machine learning (ML) and behavior analysis to determine what is normal behavior by human users and non-human entities operating in an enterprise network. Over time, the solution builds standard profiles of behavior for these users and...
Cloud-native SIEM dramatically simplifies deployment and management, and increases ease of use, speed, and detection accuracy. Cloud-native SIEM is also highly scalable, efficient, and cost effective. As organizations grow, merge, and evolve, cloud-native security solutions can offload the costs of hardware and...
Online sports retailer Sports Warehouse has agreed overhaul its security program and pay a $300,000 fine to New York State after hackers stole 20 years' worth of payment card data and customer information the company was storing in plaintext on its e-commerce server.
State-aligned hackers are increasingly targeting small and medium-sized businesses worldwide, as SMBs are more likely to be under-protected against cybersecurity threats such as phishing campaigns, according to a new report by cybersecurity firm Proofpoint.
Researchers have identified two legitimate-looking malicious npm packages that concealed an open-source info stealer for two months before being detected and removed. Developers downloaded the TurkoRat malware about 1,200 times from open-source repositories.
Data443 has bought Cyren's threat intelligence, URL categorization and email security technology out of bankruptcy for up to $3.5 million. Buying Cyren's anti-spam, virus outbreak detection, IP reputation, URL filtering and Threat InDepth data feeds will boost Data443's existing product portfolio.

Threat intelligence is an important component of OT security because it maps the techniques and tactics of threat actors to what they are likely to attack, and it collaborates across teams to cover potential vulnerabilities, according to CISOs Susan Koski and Sapan Talwar.
As ransomware actors get innovative and attacks keep growing at a brisk pace, threat intelligence and incident response plans are now more vital for businesses. But responding calmly in all that chaos is equally important and should be done the right way, said Palo Alto Networks' Wendi Whitmore.
Mass exploitation campaigns are the latest of many criminal innovations in 2023. Based on tracing ransom payments, they weren't very profitable. But ransomware actors do love their zero-days, said Allan Liska, principal intelligence analyst at Recorded Future.
A top challenge businesses face is the lack of knowledge about what digital assets they have, making it difficult to protect them, respond to attacks, and collect evidence. External threat intelligence and attack surface management are colliding as companies look to respond effectively to threats.
The intelligence community long refrained from adopting open-source technology, but its value has become evident with the rise of cloud computing and machine learning. Practitioners also are shifting toward open-source intelligence to augment the information obtained through human intelligence.
It's getting harder to distinguish between normal and unusual threat activity, with more sophisticated attacks exacerbated by hybrid work and, soon, AI attacks. Defenders need correlated rather than isolated telemetry to get more signal and less noise, say Jeetu Patel and Tom Gillis of Cisco.
