NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) was developed in the 1980s to enable applications on different computers to communicate over local area networks (LANs). A component of this suite, NetBIOS Name Service (NBNS), assists in the name resolution process when traditional DNS mechanisms are either misconfigured or unavailable.
In today’s cyberthreat landscape, the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) is the lynchpin of enterprise security, entrusted with protecting digital assets, managing risks, and guiding strategic resilience. But with the rapid rise of Agentic RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) and Digital Twins, a fundamental question emerges: Is the CISO role at risk of being replaced by machines?
The answer is layered—not a simple yes or no. While Agentic RAG and Digital Twins will revolutionise cybersecurity operations, they won’t make the CISO obsolete. Instead, they will reshape and elevate the role, allowing CISOs to lead more strategically and less reactively.
The modern digital landscape is increasingly dependent on complex software supply chains, making them a prime target for cyber threats. Supply chain vulnerabilities in software development can have far-reaching consequences, from data breaches to full-scale operational disruptions. Software developers and architects must understand these risks to design resilient systems and mitigate potential threats proactively.
This blog post will provide a deep dive into supply chain vulnerabilities, covering their origins, real-world examples, risk mitigation strategies, and best practices for securing software ecosystems.
The rapid advancement of deepfake technology has introduced a formidable challenge for businesses worldwide. What was once an amusing novelty in digital media has now become a serious cybersecurity threat, with cybercriminals leveraging deepfake videos, audio, and images to deceive employees, manipulate financial transactions, and compromise sensitive information.
Email spoofing is one of the most prevalent cyber threats targeting organisations today. In this type of attack, malicious actors forge the sender’s email address to deceive recipients into believing the email originated from a legitimate source, usually a trusted contact or organisation. This form of deception can result in devastating outcomes, from unauthorised access to sensitive information to financial losses, as recipients are manipulated into divulging credentials, transferring funds, or performing other damaging actions.
