Charge your lasers and aim them at the the New York Stock Exchange. (NYSE.com) It has been said that humanity is not an end in itself but rather a means to an end. We have shown the world our strength to deny ignorance, overcome adversity, fight oppression and even the power to throw a wrench in the system that perpetuates it. We are enslaved within a matrix of institutions with the illusion that each stands alone, each fighting for power, for profits, for the scraps on the table that represent humanities dwindling resources. In reality however, these institutions; the arms industries, banking and other financial i

Navigating the Threat Landscape: Understanding Exposure Management, Pentesting, Red Teaming and RBVM

Apr 29, 2024Exposure Management / Attack Surface
It comes as no surprise that today's cyber threats are orders of magnitude more complex than those of the past. And the ever-evolving tactics that attackers use demand the adoption of better, more holistic and consolidated ways to meet this non-stop challenge. Security teams constantly look for ways to reduce risk while improving security posture, but many approaches offer piecemeal solutions – zeroing in on one particular element of the evolving threat landscape challenge – missing the forest for the trees.  In the last few years, Exposure Management has become known as a comprehensive way of reigning in the chaos, giving organizations a true fighting chance to reduce risk and improve posture. In this article I'll cover what Exposure Management is, how it stacks up against some alternative approaches and why building an Exposure Management program should be on  your 2024 to-do list. What is Exposure Management?  Exposure Management is the systematic identification, evaluation,

Google buy Reverse Engineering Company Zynamics (German security firm) !

Google buy Reverse Engineering Company Zynamics (German security firm) !

Mar 02, 2011
Google has just acquired a small German software company called Zynamics. The company, which was founded in 2004, focuses on reverse engineering — that is, analyzing software (malware in particular) for which no source code is available. It's an incredibly interesting and complicated problem to try to solve, which makes the Zynamics team and product a perfect fit for Google, a company that's known for tackling interesting and complicated problems. A Google rep said in an e-mail, "We're delighted to have the Zynamics team aboard and hope their tools and skills in fighting malware will help us better protect Google's users." While we're not completely sure what the fate of the company will be, we do know that its goals and expertise line up particularly well with Google's aims in online security. Currently, Zynamics's offerings focus on the needs of information security specialists and malware analysts. Its products are allegedly both innovative and time-saving. The company's
