Adversaries Exploiting Hierarchical Structures in IaaS: A Strategic Risk for CISO’s

Adversaries target hierarchical structures to bypass traditional security measures and establish persistent access. Common tactics include:
Privilege Escalation via Misconfigured Roles
Attackers exploit misconfigured roles to escalate privileges. For instance, a user role intended for basic operations might inadvertently have permissions to modify sensitive configurations.
Manipulation of Resource Dependencies
By tampering with resource dependencies, adversaries can redirect network traffic, inject malicious code, or disrupt critical services.
Creation of Stealthy Backdoors
Sophisticated attackers may create hidden backdoors within less-monitored projects or folders, enabling long-term access without detection.
Exploitation of Orphaned Resources
Orphaned resources—those left behind after an entity is deleted—can be exploited for unauthorised access or data exfiltration.

The Rise of Data Security Posture Management (DSPM): A Strategic Guide for CEOs

At its core, DSPM is a framework and suite of tools designed to provide visibility into an organisation’s data security landscape. It enables organisations to identify, monitor, and mitigate risks associated with sensitive data, whether stored on-premises or in the cloud. Unlike traditional cybersecurity solutions, DSPM focuses specifically on data—its location, usage, access, and vulnerabilities.

The 2024 CWE Top 25 Most Dangerous Software Weaknesses: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption (CWE-400)

CWE-400, also referred to as resource exhaustion, occurs when a system fails to properly manage or limit the use of resources such as CPU, memory, disk space, or network bandwidth. Attackers exploit this weakness to degrade system performance or cause a complete denial of service (DoS).
