Risk Management Is SLSA the Best Third-Party Risk Assessment Standard for CI/CD? October 29, 2025 / November 5, 2025 by Maria A. | Leave a Comment Whether SLSA is the best standard for CI/CD pipelines depends on the problem you are trying to solve. If your primary goal is to establish trust in what you build—proving that an artifact came from the source you claim, was constructed by a controlled process, and was not silently modified—then SLSA sits at the center […] Read more » SLSA is the best standard for CI/CD pipelines
Security Automation How to Prevent Viruses and Malicious Code October 29, 2025 / November 5, 2025 by Maria A. | Leave a Comment Why prevention still matters (even in 2025) How to prevent viruses and malicious code: Malware isn’t just “viruses” anymore. It’s ransomware that locks your data, info-stealers that empty accounts, worms that move laterally, supply-chain implants that hitchhike in dependencies, and scripts that turn your machines into botnets. Most attacks succeed not because they’re clever but […] Read more »

Cloud Computing Picking the Right DSPM with Kosmic Eye in Mind October 21, 2025 by Maria A. | Leave a Comment As organizations evolve, so do threats, tools, and expectations. Traditional DSPM is no longer just about scanning data assets and enforcing policies — the next frontier blends visibility, intelligence, prediction, and autonomous response. Enter platforms like Kosmic Eye, which aim to bring AI, quantum reasoning, and agentic automation into the posture landscape. But can they deliver real value, or do they remain a promising overlay? In this revised guide, we walk through how to pick the right DSPM (or posture framework) for cloud environments while accounting for advanced platforms like Kosmic Eye.

AI Security Security Automation Kubernetes Runtime Security: Protecting Modern Containerized Workloads October 1, 2025 / October 1, 2025 by Maria A. | Leave a Comment Kubernetes is now the most common way to manage containerized apps. It automates the deployment, scaling, and management of workloads, which makes it a key part of modern cloud-native setups. But with tremendous power comes a lot of work, and with a lot of work comes peril. You can't just think about security in Kubernetes later. Network policies, RBAC (Role-Based Access Control), and secure configurations are all good ways to stop problems before they happen. Runtime security is the last line of defense. Read more »
AI Security Risk Management Data Risk Management Framework Explained: Protect, Comply, and Thrive September 30, 2025 / October 21, 2025 by Maria A. | Leave a Comment Data is an organization's most valuable asset in the contemporary digital economy; however, it also poses one of its greatest hazards. The potential consequences of inadequate data management are severe, ranging from accidental disclosures and compliance obligations to insider threats and cyberattacks. Organizations utilize a Data Risk Management Framework (DRMF) to identify, assess, mitigate, and monitor risks associated with data throughout its lifecycle in order to effectively navigate this landscape.

AI Security Security Automation SOC Agent: Next Evolution of Security Operations September 24, 2025 / September 24, 2025 by Maria A. | Leave a Comment A SOC agent is an AI-powered software worker that performs day-to-day Security Operations Center tasks—triage, enrichment, correlation, ticket updates, and even guided response—by reading data from your tools (SIEM, EDR/XDR, email security, IAM, CSPM), reasoning over it, and taking actions through automations (SOAR, cloud provider APIs, ITSM). Think of it as a junior analyst who never sleeps and learns quickly, paired with strict guardrails so it cannot cause harm. Read more »

Enterprises are moving critical workloads from on-premises data centers to public, private, or hybrid cloud environments to stay competitive in a digital-first economy. However, this shift comes with one critical challenge: security. Read more »
AI Security Cloud Computing Five Ways Quantum Computing Will Change Cybersecurity Forever September 2, 2025 / September 12, 2025 by Maria A. | Leave a Comment Cybersecurity has always been a race between defenders building walls and attackers finding ways to climb over them. Firewalls, antivirus software, intrusion detection systems, and encryption standards all represent attempts to stay one step ahead of malicious actors. For decades, classical computing has defined the rules of this cat-and-mouse game. But now, quantum computing is preparing to rewrite those rules entirely. Read more »
