Cyber Insurance Paradox: Judgers of Risk Struggle to Manage Own Risk

The insurance industry occupies a unique and powerful position in the cybersecurity ecosystem. By setting underwriting standards, insurers effectively act as the de facto regulators of global security, defining what good looks like for everyone else. However, a new joint report from the Insurance Information Institute and Fenix24 reveals a striking paradox: the very entities judging the world's risk are struggling to... Read more

Defending PLCs, Critical Infrastructure from Physical Cyberattacks

A new Cybersecurity Advisory from U.S CISA has sent a clear message to the industrial world: the air gap is dead, and our literal "switches" are in the crosshairs. The advisory details how Iranian-affiliated cyber actors have successfully exploited Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) across multiple U.S. critical infrastructure sectors. These intrusions amount to a direct assault on the hardware that manages our water... Read more

Infostealers Now Want Your Entire AI Identity, Not Just Your Passwords

Infostealers used to be simple creatures. Grab a few saved passwords, maybe skim some cookies, sell the bundle, move on. That model feels almost quaint now. The surface area of identity has exploded, and attackers have noticed. What used to be a login problem has quietly turned into something far more invasive, far more valuable, and far harder to recover from. There's a new prize on the table, and it lives inside...

Inside the Modern Cyber Fraud Playbook
[Remote Sessions Webcast] Tuesday, April 14 — 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. EDT

Modern cyber fraud doesn't look suspicious anymore. It looks complete. Approved. Ready to pay. How do attackers pull it off? Just like famous fraud schemes, from Ponzi scams to classic cons like "The Big Store," modern attackers rely on playbooks. But today's playbooks look less like one-off scams and more like repeatable campaigns. Now, with AI, those playbooks scale, producing convincing emails, threads, and... Register here

Quote of the Week

The challenge is no longer just about preventing intrusion. The threat landscape has evolved into one where attackers are deliberately targeting the systems that organizations rely on to respond and recover—identity infrastructure, administrative pathways, core applications, and backup environments.
