For many, presenting cyber security requirements to the board has often felt like an uphill battle, especially when it comes to regulatory frameworks. With the introduction of the NIS2 Directive, this dynamic has become even more pressing. While CISOs are acutely aware of the potential risks of non-compliance, boards may still struggle to grasp the urgency or allocate the necessary resources. Bridging this gap is essential for businesses to meet the new regulatory requirements and safeguard their operations.

In today's digital-first world, cloud security is more critical than ever. Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps (MDCA) offers a comprehensive and intelligent solution for securing cloud environments. At Integrity360, we help organisations harness its full potential. From tailored implementation and integration to ongoing monitoring, compliance management, and optimisation, our managed services ensure your cloud infrastructure is secure, compliant, and resilient against threats.

Fortinet –  CVE-2024-23113 (CVSS score: 9.8)

This vulnerability was initially published on 08 February 2024.

Data security is and will always be one of the top priorities for every organisation. It’s not just a valuable asset - it’s high-risk and often the primary target for threat actors. The risk of exposure has grown significantly as data moves into cloud apps. Consider this: according to the 2024 AppOmni State of SaaS Security Report, 30% of 644 organisations surveyed suffered a data breach in their SaaS applications last year

With only 100 days remaining before the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) becomes enforceable, financial entities across the EU must act swiftly to ensure compliance. The clock is ticking, and organisations need to prepare now to meet the stringent requirements of this regulation by 17th January 2025. This blog delves into the five core pillars of DORA and how Integrity360 can assist your organisation in achieving compliance before the deadline. 

Organisations across Europe are bracing for the full implementation of the NIS2 Directive (Network and Information Systems Directive 2). This updated legislation, which strengthens the security requirements for critical infrastructure, will become applicable by 18th October 2024. While it is an EU directive, its impact extends beyond the EU borders, affecting UK-based companies as well, despite the UK no longer being an EU member. 

In the fast-paced realm of cyber security, it's easy to assume that as new technologies emerge, the old ones fall away. Does this really apply to Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), with some questioning whether it's still relevant. Is CSPM dead, as some would suggest, or has it simply evolved into a more complex form? The short answer: CSPM is very much alive, but it now operates within a broader framework. Let’s explore what CSPM was designed to do, how it’s now integrated into Cloud-Native Application Protection Platforms (CNAPP), and why it remains the foundation for many of your cloud security challenges. 

In today's digital world, cyber security threats evolve at an alarming rate, making it increasingly difficult for businesses to keep up. Traditional methods such as Penetration Testing or Red Team Testing are often limited to one-off or periodic engagements, which while essential and valuable, may leave gaps in continuous visibility of exposure. This is where Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) steps in, offering a proactive, cyclical approach to ensure businesses are always ahead of the curve.  

Overview: A newly reported vulnerability in the Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) poses a significant security threat to UNIX-based systems, including Linux and macOS. Security researcher Simone Margaritelli has published the first of a series of blog posts detailing the issue, which can be exploited by sending a specially crafted HTTP request to the CUPS service. This vulnerability allows remote attackers to gain access to affected systems and execute arbitrary code, potentially escalating privileges and compromising critical assets.

The constant influx of CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) can make it difficult for businesses to keep up, leaving critical assets at risk. Added to this, organsations also have to deal with many other types of exposures, such as inappropriate identity permissions, or cloud platform misconfigurations. To address this challenge, Integrity360 is now offering Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) as a Service, providing organisations with a comprehensive solution to identify, prioritise, and manage the greatest risks to their critical assets, whether on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment. 

New service addresses the resource gap that can result from CTEM

The Internet of Things (IoT) has transformed the way we connect and interact with technology, enabling devices from smart thermostats to industrial machinery to communicate seamlessly over the internet. However, with this connectivity comes a unique set of challenges in securing these devices and ensuring they aren't a gateway for cyberattacks. This is where IoT penetration testing comes in.
