One of the fastest-growing security attack surfaces is the Application Programming Interface (API). These functions allow programmers to tap into distributed services like data retrieval or social media broadcasting, vastly expanding the interoperability of different software tools. Accordingly, because API access often requires connecting to or using sensitive data, this presents significant security risks. We’re… Read More
Non-Human Access Vulnerabilities and Modern Cybersecurity
The advent of non-human identities–encompassing service accounts, application IDs, machine identities, and more–has reshaped the cybersecurity landscape, introducing a new dimension of vulnerabilities and attack vectors. While helpful, these digital entities are an increasingly vulnerable spot where attackers focus resources. This article will cover this relatively new attack vector, how hackers leverage new technology to… Read More
