API security company Salt Security has announced the launch of Salt Surface, a new capability integrated into its existing API Protection Platform. Salt Surface provides organisations with a comprehensive API attack surface assessment, delivering an attacker's-eye view of their public-facing APIs to uncover specific, actionable risks before they can be exploited. Salt Surface is an active reconnaissance tool meticulously designed to mimic the tactics and techniques used by advanced API attackers. Its primary purpose is...

The updates will bring users a smarter, smoother and more secure way to manage passwords, passkeys and sensitive data on the go. The updated Keeper mobile apps will be available in app stores soon.  As smartphones become a primary point of access to sensitive data and information, both at work and in our personal lives, protecting these devices is more important...

Today, the UK’s Online Safety Act enters a new phase of enforcement and media attention is riveted on the adult content industry. Age assurance is not only required, but now actively policed, with Ofcom empowered to block access and impose fines up to £18M or 10% of global revenue. This change is not gradual. The industry has mobilised with urgency, with 1,300 UK adult websites having deployed some form of robust age verification. Of course, the...

Today Keeper Security released its latest Insight Report, Securing Privileged Access: The Key to Modern Enterprise Defence, all about privileged access management (PAM). The report found that nearly half (49%) of organisations with PAM report fewer security incidents tied to privilege misuse.  The report also found that, as 94% of organisations now operate in hybrid or cloud-first environments, access controls must adapt with infrastructure evolution.  As organisations rely on an increasingly complex network of users, applications...

Against the backdrop of escalating cyberattack threats, schools face growing pressure to ensure the safety, compliance and digital literacy of both students and staff. At SWIS school, a private school based near London, this challenge was recognised early and acted upon with intention.   The school’s leadership team understood that protecting students goes beyond traditional safeguarding. It also involves preparing staff to manage data responsibly, navigate online risks confidently and stay up to date with...

Recent research by Cybersmart has revealed that nearly half (45%) of MSPs admitted to having a dedicated pool of money set aside for ransomware payments. This is despite increasing pressure from insurers and global governments to avoid paying ransoms to stop fuelling criminal enterprises and encourage proactive resilience. Historically, the guidance and best practice around ransomware payments has been notoriously poorly defined. In a bid to make things clearer, in early 2025, the UK government...

New research by Salt Security has revealed that the majority of CISOs do not have full visibility over their API environments, despite recognition of the growing API attack surface. The 2025 Salt Security CISO Report found that while 73% of CISOs rank API security as a high or critical priority for the next 12 months, only 17% of CISOs reported having a comprehensive and implemented API security strategy, highlighting the growing gap between awareness and action...

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly embedded in the fabric of our daily lives, workplaces, and digital infrastructure, AI Appreciation Day presents the perfect opportunity to reflect not only on its transformative power but also the responsibilities that come with it. From cybersecurity to healthcare and beyond, the voices of leading experts in the field offer a clear message: AI has vast potential, but it must be managed wisely. Satish Swargam, Principal Security Consultant at...

Identity-based attacks have taken centre stage as the top cybersecurity concern for organisations in the coming year, according to a new survey conducted by Keeper Security at Infosecurity Europe 2025. The leading cybersecurity provider of zero-trust and zero-knowledge Privileged Access Management (PAM) software protecting passwords, passkeys, privileged accounts, secrets and remote connections, found nearly one in four (23%) of cybersecurity professionals cited threats such as phishing, credential stuffing and other identity-targeted tactics as the most...

Forescout’s Vedere Labs has published new research examining the real-world threat posed by generative AI in cyberattacks. While public concern is growing around "vibe hacking", a term describing AI-driven, autonomous hacking, the research findings suggest the threat remains in its early stages. Based on more than 50 simulations involving generative AI models, researchers concluded that while the technology shows potential for misuse, it is not yet an imminent danger.   The research evaluates the effectiveness...
