Virtualized environments are prime targets for cyberattacks due to their centralized nature and the potential vulnerabilities inherent in remote access protocols. Common Security Risks in Virtualization include credential-based attacks and exposure of RDP ports.

Hollebeek argued that this is the right move, given that "many of these applications need no communication outside of the company network and will therefore be more securely protected on an internal PKI, where the organization can configure certificates as they see fit."

Despite a robust investment in security measures like Zero Trust and endpoint protection, enterprises are significantly neglecting browser security, the critical layer where much of modern work occurs.

Zero-trust principles are crucial in modern cybersecurity yet CI/CD pipelines often ignore them by assuming automation is inherently trustworthy, creating security vulnerabilities.

Although caffeine and connectivity are easily available from public places, it's a real Sophie's Choice for IT and security leaders: Allow users direct access to the internet with no security controls, or route traffic to a remote data center using a VPN.

"This is just the beginning; our security AI research is pushing the boundaries of innovation, and we are eager to continuously bring even greater value to our customers at the speed of AI."

In 2024, one of the more subtle yet critical challenges that emerged was the rise of malinformation - deliberate misinformation aimed at manipulating and destabilising. Battling misinformation and reputational threats is becoming a top-line issue for all. By 2028, organisations will spend over $500 billion annually addressing malinformation, with impacts felt across marketing and cyber security budgets alike.

German outfit deviceTRUST's approach to security starts with its well-founded belief that cyber crims try to steal valid authentication credentials. Their software assesses location and the presence of USB devices to determine the context of device usage. If a user's machine or behavior is outside expected contexts, the software can limit or deny access. This highlights a comprehensive approach to ensuring that even two-factor authentication is not the sole indicator of trust.

In today's digital landscape, the traditional security perimeter has dissolved, making identity the new frontline of defence. Effective Identity and Access Management practices are essential for IT departments to safeguard against cyber-attacks.
