For decades, cybersecurity strategy has been built around three familiar pillars: endpoint security, network security, and cloud security. These domains have shaped how security teams are organised, where budgets are allocated, and how risks are understood across the enterprise. Each pillar emerged in response to a major shift in computing. The rise of personal devices led to endpoint security. Expanding connectivity created the need for network defence. The migration of infrastructure and applications into SaaS...

Exposure management has replaced old‑school “scan‑and‑patch” techniques.   Now, the money is in unified visibility, context, and mobilization; not siloed CVEs that don’t reflect the priorities of the business. Teams need to see attack paths, not single vulnerabilities. They need to understand what matters to the whole, not what has a higher score. And they need to know what to fix first.   This means unified visibility, context, and mobilization across all fronts: IT, cloud, identity, and OT environments....

Cybersecurity threats continue to escalate in scale, speed and sophistication, placing growing pressure on organisations to move beyond reactive defences and rethink how risk is governed at leadership level. As digital systems underpin everything from national infrastructure to day-to-day business operations, failures in governance, communication and accountability are increasingly being exposed as critical vulnerabilities. At the centre of this challenge is Purvi Kay, a senior cyber security leader with experience operating in some of the...

If you had asked me in 2024 how seriously firms were taking DORA, my honest answer would have been that only around the top 20 per cent of impacted organisations were truly focused on it. These were typically the more risk averse, forward thinking businesses that tend to move early on regulatory change. Even then, many struggled to embed DORA into compliance as usual activities, whether because of stretched resources, limited budgets or complications within...

Ahead of Valentine's Day, cybersecurity experts are warning consumers to be cautious online, whether they're looking for love or trying to grab a last minute gift. Why do scams increase around Valentine's Day? Anne Cutler, Cybersecurity Expert at Keeper Security, notes: "Valentine’s Day is one of the easiest moments of the year for romance scams to succeed, largely because people are more open to connection. When emotions run high, caution often slips quietly into the...

Veribee is on a mission to reduce noise for software teams, by striving to minimise alert-heavy tools that create noise, as opposed to confidence in what’s actually secure. As one survey found, over two-thirds of security teams receive over 2,000 alerts a day (roughly one alert every 42 seconds), with 92% reporting missed or uninvestigated alerts were linked to actual security incidents. Evidently, noise reduction, at a time where noise is only increasing, cannot be...
