In the early days of cybersecurity, the prevailing wisdom was simple: build a wall high enough to keep the bad actors out. The strategy was binary; secure or insecure, safe or breached. But as we move deeper into the latter half of the decade, that binary worldview has collapsed. The perimeter has not just dissolved; […]

For the better part of the last decade, the mantra of the digital age was simple: “Data is the new oil.” Companies hoarded every byte they could capture, customer clickstreams, decade-old transaction logs, and redundant backups of backups, convinced that one day, this data would yield profitable insights. Storage was cheap, the cloud was infinite,
The “Toxic Asset” in Your Cloud: Why Data Minimization is Your Best Security Strategy Read More »
In the rapidly evolving landscape of enterprise cybersecurity, attention is frequently monopolized by the “front door” mechanisms. Security teams and business leaders naturally focus their resources on the shiny new web application, the latest mobile app release, or the newly architected cloud environment. The prevailing assumption suggests that attackers will invariably target these most visible

For the past decade, the cybersecurity industry has been obsessed with the human element. We run phishing simulations, enforce biometric checks, and mandate complex passwords for every employee. Yet, while we were busy locking the front door, the back wall was being dismantled by an army of ghosts. In 2025, human users are a vast

Monday morning, 9:00 AM. The CISO walks into the legal department with a grim expression. “We have a confirmed data leak,” the CISO says. “Proprietary schematics were sent to a competitor. The logs point to Sarah in Engineering. She accessed the files from her iPad last night.” The General Counsel looks up. “Is it a

For decades, the cybersecurity industry has been fighting a two-front war. We have spent billions of dollars building fortifications for “Data at Rest” (encryption on hard drives) and “Data in Transit” (TLS/SSL for network traffic). These battles, while not fully won, are well-understood. We know how to lock the vault, and we know how to

In the digital economy, data travels at the speed of light, but the laws governing that data stop abruptly at physical borders. This is the central paradox of modern cybersecurity. We live in a world where a security operations center in New York might need to investigate a compromised server in Frankfurt, which contains customer

In the race to plug every hole, organizations are drowning in complexity. Here is how to regain control Imagine a construction site where every carpenter brings their own unique brand of hammer. One uses metric, one uses imperial, and another uses a proprietary digital hammer that requires a Wi-Fi connection. Individually, these tools are excellent.

When “seeing is believing” becomes your biggest security vulnerability The call came in on a Friday afternoon. The face on the video conference was familiar; it was the Chief Financial Officer. The voice was unmistakable, capturing the specific cadence and tone the finance team heard every week. The request was urgent but plausible: a secret

The modern enterprise perimeter has not just dissolved; it has evaporated into a fog of microservices, ephemeral functions, and distributed storage buckets. For the last decade, the mandate for IT leaders was speed. “Move fast and break things” was the philosophy that drove digital transformation, pushing organizations to adopt serverless architectures and cloud-native developments at
