The modern-day threat landscape requires enterprise security teams to think and act beyond traditional cybersecurity measures that are purely passive and reactive, and in most cases, ineffective against emerging threats and sophisticated threat actors. Prioritizing cybersecurity means implementing more proactive, adaptive, and actionable measures that can work together to effectively address the

An international operation coordinated by Europol has disrupted the infrastructure of a pro-Russian hacktivist group known as NoName057(16) that has been linked to a string of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks against Ukraine and its allies. The actions have led to the dismantling of a major part of the group’s central server infrastructure and more than

The AI gold rush is on. But without identity-first security, every deployment becomes an open door. Most organizations secure native AI like a web app, but it behaves more like a junior employee with root access and no manager. From Hype to High Stakes Generative AI has moved beyond the hype cycle. Enterprises are: Deploying

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed what they say is a “critical design flaw” in delegated Managed Service Accounts (dMSAs) introduced in Windows Server 2025. “The flaw can result in high-impact attacks, enabling cross-domain lateral movement and persistent access to all managed service accounts and their resources across Active Directory indefinitely,” Semperis said in a report shared

A threat activity cluster has been observed targeting fully-patched end-of-life SonicWall Secure Mobile Access (SMA) 100 series appliances as part of a campaign designed to drop a backdoor called OVERSTEP. The malicious activity, dating back to at least October 2024, has been attributed by the Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) to a hacking crew it

Cybersecurity researchers have flagged a new variant of a known malware loader called Matanbuchus that packs in significant features to enhance its stealth and evade detection. Matanbuchus is the name given to a malware-as-a-service (MaaS) offering that can act as a conduit for next-stage payloads, including Cobalt Strike beacons and ransomware. First advertised in February

Cybersecurity researchers have discovered a new, sophisticated variant of a known Android malware referred to as Konfety that leverages the evil twin technique to enable ad fraud. The sneaky approach essentially involves a scenario wherein two variants of an application share the same package name: A benign “decoy” app that’s hosted on the Google Play

Cybersecurity researchers have charted the evolution of a widely used remote access trojan called AsyncRAT, which was first released on GitHub in January 2019 and has since served as the foundation for several other variants. “AsyncRAT has cemented its place as a cornerstone of modern malware and as a pervasive threat that has evolved into

AI agents promise to automate everything from financial reconciliations to incident response. Yet every time an AI agent spins up a workflow, it has to authenticate somewhere; often with a high-privilege API key, OAuth token, or service account that defenders can’t easily see. These “invisible” non-human identities (NHIs) now outnumber human accounts in most cloud

Governmental organizations in Southeast Asia are the target of a new campaign that aims to collect sensitive information by means of a previously undocumented Windows backdoor dubbed HazyBeacon. The activity is being tracked by Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 under the moniker CL-STA-1020, where “CL” stands for “cluster” and “STA” refers to “state-backed motivation.” “The
