US order is a reminder that cloud platforms aren’t secure out of the box

This week’s binding directive to US government departments to implement secure configurations in cloud applications, starting with Microsoft 365 (M365), is a reminder to all CISOs that cloud platforms, even from major providers, aren’t completely secure out of the box. “Cloud stuff is easy to manage, easy to deploy,” said Ed Dubrovsky, chief operating officer and managing partner of Cypfer, an international cyber incident response company. “The challenge of that is the default of M365 platform is not really secure. We in the security profession have been yelling for years [at Microsoft], ‘Why aren’t you saying MFA [multifactor authentication] must [...]

Enhance Microsoft security by ditching your hybrid setup for Entra-only join

Artificial intelligence is top of mind for nearly everything Microsoft is doing these days, but there’s another goal the company would like to see its users strive to attain — one that may not be easily obtained — and that’s to be Entra-joined only. That means no more Active Directory (AD) and no more traditional domain: instead, your devices join Entra (formerly Azure AD) natively and are integrated into Microsoft’s cloud-based directory service for centralized management, authentication, and security. It’s a major shift from the hybrid-join setups many of us have relied upon in the past in which workstations connect [...]

Russia fires its biggest cyberweapon against Ukraine

Ukraine has faced one of the most severe cyberattacks in recent history, targeting its state registries and temporarily disrupting access to critical government records. Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Olga Stefanishyna attributed the attack to Russian operatives, describing it as an attempt to destabilize the country’s vital digital infrastructure amid the ongoing war. “It’s already clear that the attack was made by the Russians in order to disrupt the work of the critically important infrastructure of the state,” Stefanishyna noted in a Facebook post. “This was the largest external cyberattack on Ukraine’s state registries in recent times,” she wrote, adding that [...]

Die 10 besten API-Security-Tools

Mithilfe von APIs können verschiedene Software-Komponenten und -Ressourcen miteinander interagieren. Foto: eamesBot – shutterstock.comAnwendungsprogrammierschnittstellen (Application Programming Interfaces, APIs) sind zu einem wichtigen Bestandteil von Netzwerken, Programmen, Anwendungen, Geräten und fast allen anderen Bereichen der Computerlandschaft geworden. Dies gilt insbesondere für das Cloud Computing und das Mobile Computing. Beides könnte in der derzeitigen Form nicht existieren, wenn nicht APIs einen Großteil der Backend-Funktionen verwalten würden. Aufgrund ihrer Zuverlässigkeit und Einfachheit sind APIs inzwischen allgegenwärtig. Die meisten Unternehmen wissen wahrscheinlich nicht einmal, wie viele APIs in ihren Netzwerken, insbesondere in ihren Clouds, betrieben werden. In größeren Unternehmen sind wahrscheinlich Tausende Schnittstellen im [...]

From reactive to proactive: Redefining incident response with unified, cloud-native XDR

In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, cybersecurity is a constant game of cat and mouse. The average security operations center (SOC) team receives 4,484 alerts every day and can spend up to 3 hours manually triaging to understand which signals represent a genuine threat and which are just noise. However, this model traps SOCs in a continual loop of reacting to incoming high-priority alerts without leaving enough time to address lower-priority issues. As many as 62% of SOC alerts are ignored or go unaddressed due to ongoing challenges around alert fatigue. Because analysts’ bandwidth is constantly taken up by reacting [...]

US eyes ban on TP-Link routers amid cybersecurity concerns

The US government is investigating TP-Link, a Chinese company that supplies about 65% of routers for American homes and small businesses, amid concerns about national security risks. Reports suggest these routers have vulnerabilities that cybercriminals exploit to compromise sensitive enterprise data. Investigations by the Commerce, Defense, and Justice Departments indicate that the routers may have been exploited in cyberattacks, raising alarms for individual users and enterprises relying on secure networks to support hybrid workforces. If confirmed, these risks could lead to a ban on TP-Link products in the US as early as next year, reflecting escalating tensions between the US [...]
