Welcome to Information Security Media Group's Black Hat and DEF CON 2024 Compendium featuring latest insights from the industry's top cybersecurity researchers and ethical hackers, as well as perspectives from CEOs, CISOs and government officials on the latest trends in cybersecurity and AI.
Cutting kernel mode dependencies and adopting safe deployment practices will make endpoint systems more resilient and secure for Windows customers. Tuesday's meeting came two months after a faulty CrowdStrike update disrupted 8.5 million Windows machines and caused $5.4 billion in direct losses.
Android malware first seen in the wild in late 2023 has been targeting users' bank and online payment accounts, bolstered by its ability to steal one-time access codes sent via SMS. The banking Trojan, which security researchers call Ajina, appears to be a joint endeavor with affiliates.
A novel side-channel attack exploits radio signals emitted by random access memory in air-gapped computers, presenting a new threat to highly secure networks. One of the most effective ways to mitigate the risk is to cover sensitive machines with Faraday shielding.
The global disruption caused by a faulty CrowdStrike software triggering a kernel panic and computer meltdowns has led government agencies, experts and vendors to call for rethinking Windows operating system resiliency, including the deep-level OS access security tools now require.
Kaspersky is transferring 1 million U.S. antivirus customers to Pango Group's UltraAV product following the Department of Commerce's ban on Kaspersky software sales or updates. The transition ensures users will continue to receive critical cybersecurity updates and services.
SentinelOne's minimal reliance on the kernel, reduced dependency on cloud connectivity and use of behavioral AI for threat detection reduce the risk of system disruptions and offer a security edge over CrowdStrike, said SentinelOne CEO Tomer Weingarten.
CEO George Kurtz said CrowdStrike has blunted the business impact from the massive July 19 outage and is implementing changes to prevent a repeat occurrence. CrowdStrike is boosting the resilience of its Falcon platform through improved content visibility and control and enhanced quality assurance.
CSA DLP Survey Says: CISOs face challenges & choices—some obvious, some not
The upsurge in hybrid work and cloud adoption on a global scale is no surprise. Organizations increasingly trust the cloud with their data, but sensitive data is still at risk in the cloud and requires comprehensive data protection...
Traditional Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions just don't cut it in today's hybrid work environments. They are cumbersome, hard to maintain, and don't scale well. Enter Netskope.
Netskope's cloud-delivered DLP offers a streamlined, scalable solution that consistently protects sensitive data across both...
The FBI had a loose hard disk disposal problem that auditors say put classified information at risk. The bureau, auditor said, has a tracking system for obsolete computers and servers earmarked for destruction - but not for storage media extracted from the computer chassis.
Centralized architecture in the automotive industry streamlines cybersecurity and supply chain operations by reducing hardware components and enabling quicker fixes. But that centralization also poses major cybersecurity challenges, said Thomas Sermpinis, technical director at Auxilium Pentest Labs.
Imagine cruising down a bike path and having the gears suddenly shift without warning. Security researchers say cybercriminals could take advantage of new wireless controlled bicycle gear systems to make that happen - and cause crashes and injuries.
