The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) has unveiled the European Vulnerability Database (EUVD), a strategic move designed to enhance digital security across the bloc and reduce reliance on U.S.-centric cybersecurity infrastructure. The EUVD, now live for consultation, aggregates vulnerability data from a wide range of sources, including national Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRTs), software vendors, and international feeds such as the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s (CISA) Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue. Crucially,...

Described as revolutionary and disruptive, AI agents are the new cornerstone of innovation in 2025. But as with any technology standing on the cutting edge, this evolution isn’t without its trade-offs. Will this new blend of intelligence and autonomy really introduce a new era of efficiency? Or does the ability for AI Agents to act independently widen the attack surface for cyber threats, making them a potential liability? Unlike the generative AI tools we’ve grown...

Cloud adoption continues to rise, and with it comes increased complexity. Organizations use multiple cloud platforms, creating challenges that traditional security tools struggle to handle. Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms (CNAPPs) have emerged as vital solutions. CNAPPs offer integrated security across cloud-native environments, from applications and workloads to data and infrastructure. As organizations look to optimize their cloud security posture, many are reassessing their current CNAPP solutions and evaluating newer options to address evolving business needs....

As vulnerability counts rise and attack windows shrink, organisations face a stark reality: it’s not how fast you can detect risk, but how fast you can resolve it. MTTR has become the most telling indicator of whether a security programme is working. And yet, industry data reveals that most companies are falling short. The average MTTR to fix a critical vulnerability remains a staggering 270 days, even as adversaries exploit new vulnerabilities in less than...

In the modern financial landscape, cyber threats have evolved far beyond traditional malware and phishing emails. There are now sophisticated scams like mishing (voice phishing), smishing (SMS phishing), and quishing (QR code phishing) are now targeting consumers and financial institutions alike. Artificial intelligence (AI) can be a vital line of defense in the battle against these nuanced forms of cyber deception. By taking advantage of real-time data analysis, natural language processing (NLP), machine learning (ML),...

Digital wallets have become increasingly popular, offering users an easy way to make payments, store cryptocurrencies, and manage their money. But as more people use digital wallets, the risk of cyber threats, especially phishing attacks, has also grown. Phishing is a trick used by hackers to steal sensitive information like passwords and financial details. This article will share tips on how to protect your digital wallet from these dangers. Platforms That Require Digital Wallet Security...

Today’s cloud environments and the traditional security tools that accompany them often fail to provide the visibility and context needed to prevent breaches. As sensitive data is increasingly moved to cloud servers, it is important to utilise applications and tools for better security. While cloud-native platforms bring agility and complexity to systems, this complexity creates risks. This is why organisations are turning to CNAPP (Cloud Native Application Protection Platform) to unify security across their cloud...

KnowBe4’s founder and current chief executive officer Stu Sjouwerman has transitioned to the role of executive chairman. Palma is a highly regarded technology executive with over twenty-five years of experience and a proven track record of scaling global technology enterprises by driving profitable growth, improving...

Check Point Software Technologies and Illumio have announced a strategic partnership aimed at helping organisations enhance their Zero Trust strategies and proactively contain cyber threats. The integration brings together Check Point’s Infinity Platform, which includes Quantum Force firewalls, Infinity ThreatCloud AI, and AI-powered Security Management, with Illumio’s Segmentation and Insights capabilities. The result is a powerful combination that enables real-time threat identification, containment of lateral movement, and stronger cyber resilience across hybrid and multi-cloud environments....

Despite DevSecOps being a well-understood priority, many teams still find themselves getting security alerts too late. Developers often feel burdened rather than empowered, and security vulnerabilities may make their way into the final stages before a release. Traditional AppSec tools, while powerful, can create miscommunication between teams, forcing developers to step outside of their familiar workflows. These misalignments between security and engineering goals often slow down productivity and can introduce unwanted risks in the development...
