Cyber attackers are using new ways to breach systems, making threats hard to detect. Traditional tools like firewalls alone can't keep up. That's where cyber deception steps in! Using traps and decoys that lure and mislead attackers, deception technology allows security teams to capture attackers even before intrusion, speed up the response, and reduce damage. Why Deception Technology Matters
I'm helping a client work through a breach. Usually an insurer covers some kind of monitoring as a part of their coverage. I've never priced it out. This client isn't going through insurance and I'd rather not 'hop on for a quick call' five times today for pricing. Anyone have some ballpark quotes and who you went with? Thanks! submitted by /u/lawtechie [link] [comments]

TL;DR Foreign hackers exploited unpatched Microsoft SharePoint vulnerabilities to breach the Kansas City National Security Campus (KCNSC), a key facility under the U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) that manufactures components for nuclear weapons.

While Bloomberg's July 23, 2025 article reported the same breach from a higher, agency-level...
The FinWise breach shows that when insider threats strike, encryption is the last line of defense. Penta Security's D.AMO platform unites encryption, key management, and access control to keep sensitive data secure.
No industry is spared from cyber-attacks. But some have greater consequences than others. When a hospital or medical group experiences a breach, people's private and legally protected data can become...
Hey guys, Wanted to get a group feel on something. I've been reading a lot about tool and policy consolidation lately, and I get the argument visibility and unified control sound great. But the AWS outage last week was a good reminder of what happens when everything depends on one system. One DNS failure took out services for thousands of companies. That's the same trade-off we're making in security when we centralize control: one misconfig, one breach, and the blast radius is massive. Anyone...
Threat actors with ties to China exploited the ToolShell security vulnerability in Microsoft SharePoint to breach a telecommunications company in the Middle East after it was publicly disclosed and patched in July 2025. Also targeted were government departments in an African country, as well as government agencies in South America, a university in the U.S., as well as likely a state technology

Cybersecurity is not just about defense; it is about protecting profits. Organizations without modern threat intelligence (TI) face escalating breach costs, wasted resources, and operational inefficiencies that hit the bottom line. Actionable intel can help businesses cut costs, optimize workflows, and neutralize risks before they escalate. Security operations centers (SOCs) suffer from inefficiency and burnout
When Fortune 500 breaches sardine headlines, the same tired mainstream narrative surfaces: "This breach will finally spark digital transformation." Boards knee-jerk to respond, budgets balloon overnight, consultants ambulance chase with...

In August 2025, F5 detected that a sophisticated nation-state threat actor had maintained persistent access to parts of its internal systems. According to F5's latest Quarterly Security Notification (October 2025) , the compromise involved the BIG-IP product development environment and engineering knowledge platforms. The investigation - with support from CrowdStrike, Mandiant, NCC Group, and IOActive - determined that the attacker exfiltrated: Portions of BIG-IP source code Details on...
