Cybersecurity is an infinite journey in a digital landscape that never ceases to change. According to Ponemon Institute1, “only 59% of organizations say their cybersecurity strategy has changed over the past two years.” This stagnation in strategy adaptation can be traced back to several key issues. Talent Retention Challenges: The cybersecurity field is rapidly advancing, requiring a

There has been a huge increase in demand for running complex systems with tens to hundreds of microservices at massive scale. End users expect 24/7 availability of services they depend on, so even a few minutes of downtime matters. A proactive chaos engineer helps meet user expectations by identifying bottlenecks, hardening services before downtime occurs in a production environment. Chaos engineering is vital to avoid losing trust with your end users.To help address the need for a resilient Kubernetes platform and provide improved user experiences, Red Hat collaborates with the open source co

The Computer Emergency Response Team of Ukraine (CERT-UA) has warned of a new phishing campaign orchestrated by the Russia-linked APT28 group to deploy previously undocumented malware such as OCEANMAP, MASEPIE, and STEELHOOK to harvest sensitive information. The activity, which was detected by the agency between December 15 and 25, 2023, targets government entities

With this data, they can make data driven decisions about how they implement

Some of you have already started budgeting for 2024 and allocating funds to security areas within your organization. It is safe to say that employee security awareness training is one of the expenditure items, too. However, its effectiveness is an open question with people still engaging in insecure behaviors at the workplace. Besides, social engineering remains one of the most prevalent attacks
