Fortifying Our Defenses: Lessons from the Colonial Pipeline Cyberattack for Critical Infrastructure Security

30% of Critical Infrastructure Organizations Will Experience a Security Breach by 2025 – Gartner Gartner’s insight underscores the critical need for organizations to reassess their cybersecurity approaches and learn from past disasters, such as the Colonial Pipeline security incident. This highlights the importance of increased vigilance and readiness within the energy industry, spurred by earlier wake-up calls.

Learn encryption and decryption in Typescript

Learning encryption and decryption in TypeScript involves understanding cryptographic concepts and utilizing cryptographic libraries to perform secure encryption and decryption operations. In the digital age, data security has become paramount. Protecting sensitive information from unauthorized access has led to the widespread use of encryption and decryption techniques.

Snowflake Announces Cyber Essentials Plus Certification

Ensuring a seamless data experience that complies with regulatory frameworks, particularly in the public sector, is crucial. Research from the U.K. government found as many as 32% of businesses and 24% of charities suffered online breaches or cyberattacks in the last 12 months. In this increasingly interconnected world, national stability depends on thoughtful data governance and safeguarding.

AS2 vs. SFTP: Key Differences & How to Choose

Businesses of all sizes need secure and scalable methods for sharing information, but it's not always clear what the best protocols and solutions are for each use case. Two of the most commonly used data transfer protocols are Applicability Standard 2 (AS2) and Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP). While AS2 is a protocol-based standard that's most often used for data transfers that require proof of receipt, SFTP is a more commonly used protocol for secure, scalable file transfer.

Get started with security: Vite, React, and Ably Token Requests for API access

SaaS APIs typically require some kind of authentication to allow access. While there are many ways that APIs can implement authentication, one popular choice is using secret keys as the scheme. Exposing secret keys directly to a client application however can create security risks, so how can client applications based on libraries like React securely access SaaS services? Many APIs, including Ably, offer an additional client-oriented token authentication system.

Building Impenetrable Cybersecurity for Your Mobile Banking App

Mobile banking has become integral to our daily lives, offering unparalleled convenience and accessibility. However, as the usage of mobile banking apps continues to grow, so do the threats from cybercriminals. In a world where personal and financial data is at risk, mobile banking apps must prioritize security. In August 2021, US-based T-Mobile experienced a cyberattack where a 21-year-old stole data from approximately 50 million current customers and potential prospects.

How We Implemented Zero Trust in Choreo

In the past, enterprise software focused on protecting network access through on-premises firewalls and VPNs, working on the assumption that everything within the network was secure. However, today, as accessing data has extended beyond on-premises locations to cloud and hybrid networks, SaaS platforms require a security model that can address a broader range of attack vectors. Zero Trust security addresses this pressing need.

Demystifying SFTP Data Transfer: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

In today’s data-rich world where large volumes of data exchange have become frequent, ensuring the data transfer mechanism is safe and secure is essential. Data security is of utmost importance, and the data transfer tool you select should provide data encryption. Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) is one such file transfer mechanism that businesses can leverage to securely transfer files between users and locations, regardless of their network or device type.

Managed Detection & Response Leaders Embrace Data and Analytics to Stay Ahead

The Managed Detection & Response (MDR) industry finds itself in a new era with unprecedented challenges from platform giants and the migration of the attack surface to the cloud, with innovation becoming a requirement for survival. Companies built to provide clients with 24×7 “eyes on glass” now find themselves at the intersection of rapid technological advancements and evolving threat landscapes.

Safeguarding the Application Frontier: Exploring Future Trends in Application Security Testing

Organizations face growing demands to drive innovation, swiftly create new applications, and embrace emerging technologies (like SMACT) to maintain a competitive edge and stay ahead of the curve. In tandem with this, adopting DevOps practices and open-source code libraries significantly accelerates the pace at which applications are being developed, delivered, and maintained, albeit with the inherent invitation of various security risks.
