Advances in Machine Learning with AI
Introduction: Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are driving transformative changes across various industries, including cybersecurity. In 2024, the integration of ML and AI technologies is enhancing threat detection, automating responses, and improving overall security posture. These advances are enabling organizations to better protect against evolving threats and manage increasingly complex security environments. How […]
Fraud Protection Starts with the Desktop
Introduction: Fraud protection often focuses on high-profile threats such as network breaches and cyber-attacks, but the reality is that many security issues start at the desktop level. In 2024, ensuring robust fraud protection requires a comprehensive approach that begins with securing individual endpoints. Desktops, laptops, and other end-user devices are prime targets for attackers, and […]
Lifecycle Management Best Practices
Introduction: Identity lifecycle management (ILM) is a critical process for ensuring that users have the right level of access to the right resources at the right time. In 2024, as businesses continue to operate in increasingly complex digital environments, effective ILM is more important than ever. Organizations must follow best practices to ensure that their […]
Weak MFA Factors Are Open Doors for Fraudsters
Introduction: Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) has long been hailed as a critical defense against unauthorized access, adding layers of security beyond just passwords. However, in 2024, not all MFA is created equal. Weak MFA factors, such as SMS-based authentication or easily guessed security questions, are increasingly being exploited by cybercriminals. These vulnerabilities open doors for fraudsters, […]
Beyond Authentication: Continuous Adaptive Evaluation of Permissions (CAEP)
Introduction: As cybersecurity threats evolve, so too must the methods used to safeguard access to sensitive resources. Traditional authentication, which relies on a single point of verification, has proven insufficient to counter modern cyber risks. In 2024, Continuous Adaptive Evaluation of Permissions (CAEP) is emerging as a critical extension of authentication that goes beyond the […]
The Rise of Deepfake Video and Audio Spoofing
Introduction: Deepfake technology, which uses AI to create realistic but fake video and audio content, has rapidly evolved in recent years. What started as a novelty has now become a serious cybersecurity threat, with attackers using deepfakes to manipulate public opinion, commit fraud, and impersonate individuals. In 2024, businesses need to be more vigilant than […]
