A multimillion-dollar cybersecurity infrastructure, complete with the latest endpoint detection and response tools, can be systematically dismantled by a single file that predates the modern internet. This scenario is not theoretical; it represents a growing threat where attackers turn an operating system's inherent trust into their most
The very systems designed to centralize and enforce an organization's endpoint security can, under specific circumstances, become the most critical point of failure, granting attackers widespread access with a single exploit. Such is the case with a recently disclosed vulnerability in FortiClientEMS, Fortinet's central management

The projected annual cost of cybercrime is $10.5 tillion . As attacks grow in scale and cost, there’s more pressure on businesses to protect themselves. Meaning, cybersecurity isn’t just an IT problem, but it’s a leadership concern. Many catastrophic cyber incidents result from leadership blind spots, weak governance, and a lack of clear accountability. To help you tackle these challenges, this ar

Your network may already be compromised, and your security tools could have missed this. Attackers are slipping through protective measures undetected, exploiting trusted processes, and hiding in plain sight. Signature-based antivirus and basic firewalls, once the cornerstones of digital defense, are blind to modern threats like zero-day exploits, fileless malware, and lateral movement

With a distinguished career spent on the front lines of corporate cybersecurity, Malik Haidar has a unique vantage point on the evolving threat landscape. Now, he's focused on a new and rapidly emerging frontier: the security of artificial intelligence systems. As businesses rush to adopt powerful new AI "skills" to automate complex operations, Haidar warns that they are inadvertently creating a dangerous new attack surface, one that mixes executable logic with sensitive data in ways traditional security tools are completely unprepared to
