Windows Admin Center flaws mean on-prem can attack cloud, and vice-versa Black Hat Asia Israeli researchers found a series of flaws in Microsoft's Windows Admin Center (WAC) and suggest this shows hybrid cloud management tools are a two-way attack surface that users don't spend enough time worrying about.…

CyberArk and Accenture Experts Discuss Modernization, Identity Sprawl, Securing AIEnterprises are embracing modernization by adopting artificial intelligence tools, automation and DevOps-driven development in the cloud, but these new platforms have introduced an attack surface saturated with human and machine identities, said CyberArk's Barak Feldman and Accenture's Rex Thexton.

CyberArk and Accenture Experts Discuss Modernization, Identity Sprawl, Securing AIFinancial services organizations are accelerating modernization efforts by adopting artificial intelligence, automation and DevOps-driven cloud development, but these initiatives have dramatically expanded their attack surface. As banks and financial enterprises rely more heavily on non-human identities to power applications, integrations and AI-driven workflows, security leaders are struggling to manage the volume, velocity and variety of machine identities across cloud and on-premises environments, said Barak Feldman, senior vice president of solutions engineering at CyberArk, and Rex Thexton, senior managing director at Accenture.

Passive scan data goes stale fast as cloud assets shift daily, leaving teams blind to real exposures. Sprocket Security shows how continuous, automated recon gives accurate, up-to-date attack surface visibility. [...]

Cyber threats are evolving faster than ever. Attackers now combine social engineering, AI-driven manipulation, and cloud exploitation to breach targets once considered secure. From communication platforms to connected devices, every system that enhances convenience also expands the attack surface

The cloud now acts as the connecting infrastructure for many companies' assets — from IoT devices to workstations to applications and workloads — exposing the edge to threats.

The security landscape for cloud-native applications is undergoing a profound transformation. Containers, Kubernetes, and serverless technologies are now the default for modern enterprises, accelerating delivery but also expanding the attack surface in ways traditional security models can’t keep up with

A cloud security platform that manages the attack surface and security vulnerabilities in AWS Sponsored post You’d be naïve to believe that the cloud is secure by default, and while most hosting services provide basic defenses, it’s not always clear what level of protection these provide.…

As IT environments grow more complex, IT professionals are facing unprecedented pressure to secure business-critical data. With hybrid work the new standard and cloud adoption on the rise, data is increasingly distributed across different environments, providers and locations, expanding the attack surface for emerging cyberthreats. While the need for a strong data protection strategy has become

Attack surfaces are growing faster than security teams can keep up – to stay ahead, you need to know what’s exposed and where attackers are most likely to strike

Are you using the cloud or thinking about transitioning? Undoubtedly, multi-cloud and hybrid environments offer numerous benefits for organizations. However, the cloud's flexibility, scalability, and efficiency come with significant risk — an expanded attack surface. The decentralization that comes with utilizing multi-cloud environments can also lead to limited visibility into user activity and

Explore how a cybersecurity platform with attack surface management and runtime protection capabilities can enhance your cloud security posture.

Applications are increasingly distributed, expanding companies' cloud attack surfaces, and requiring regular testing to find and fix vulnerabilities — else companies risk a growing sprawl of services.

How F5 Distributed Cloud Services seal security gaps in modern app development amid growing attack surface Partner Content Application programming interfaces (APIs) play a significant role in today's digital economy, but at the same time they can also represent a data security vulnerability.…

Today’s attack surface requires modern processes and security solutions. Explore the tenants of modern attack surface management (ASM) and what Cloud teams need to look for in an ASM solution.

Today’s security leaders must manage a constantly evolving attack surface and a dynamic threat environment due to interconnected devices, cloud services, IoT technologies, and hybrid work environments. Adversaries are constantly introducing new attack techniques, and not all companies have internal Red Teams or unlimited security resources to stay on top of the latest threats. On top of that,

The nature of cloud environments means security and technical teams need a different mindset to understand and manage their new attack surface.

Attack surfaces are growing faster than security teams can keep up. To stay ahead, you need to know what's exposed and where attackers are most likely to strike. With cloud migration dramatically increasing the number of internal and external targets, prioritizing threats and managing your attack surface from an attacker's perspective has never been more important. Let's look at why it's growing

As organizations shift to the cloud in droves, their digital attack surface continues to rapidly expand. We explore how proactive cyber risk management can help harden your defenses and reduce the likelihood of an attack or breach.
