Those of us with the privilege to work in education have an opportunity to shape the next generation to be more cyberaware and make our digital world a safer place. It’s an obligation we must all take seriously. The threat environment is becoming more perilous, particularly with the growing use of artificial intelligence by hackers.…
DetailsWe are at a crossroads where well-funded threat actors are leveraging innovative tools, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, while Security Operations Centers (SOCs), built around legacy technologies like security information and event management (SIEM) solutions, are failing to rise to the occasion. Organizations of all sizes need a scalable solution that keeps pace…
DetailsThis year’s Black Hat USA conference saw more than 907M threat events detected in real time, according to data collected by Palo Alto Networks. This is a staggering number that shows just how attractive the event is to threat actors – and artificial intelligence (AI) was a key driver in protecting against these attempts. With…
DetailsThe paradigm shift towards the cloud has dominated the technology landscape, providing organizations with stronger connectivity, efficiency, and scalability. As a result of ongoing cloud adoption, developers face increased pressures to rapidly create and deploy applications in support of their organization’s cloud transformation goals.
