Modernizing Global Vulnerability Standards For The Age Of AI
As AI-driven vulnerability discovery accelerates, the cybersecurity ecosystem is being forced to examine whether the standards, disclosure processes, and prioritization frameworks defenders rely on can still keep pace. Many of those systems were built around human-speed discovery, manageable vulnerability volumes, and exploitability confirmed after the fact, which leaves them under increasing strain as frontier AI capabilities mature.
NIS2 is raising the bar. Here’s how to turn readiness into resilience.
The NIS2 directive asks covered organizations to take a more structured approach to risk management, governance, supply chain security, and incident reporting. It expands the scope of who may be covered, raises expectations around management body accountability, introduces clearer and more enforceable requirements, and increases pressure on organizations to show that security is being managed in a consistent, defensible way.
Does Your Security Programme Align With NIS2 Requirements?
If your organization operates in the EU, or works with organizations that do, NIS2 is no longer something on the horizon. It is here and it applies to a far wider range of sectors than its predecessor, the original NIS Directive (Directive (EU) 2016/1148), and it comes with real consequences for organizations that cannot demonstrate they are meeting its requirements. The good news? You do not have to figure out how to approach it alone.

Why we need public-private partnerships in cybersecurity
In today’s rapidly evolving digital age, public-private partnerships (PPPs) have become a crucial component of the cybersecurity equation, writes Sabeen Malik.

The 2023 Ultimate Guide to Ransomware
Overview Ransomware is malware designed to virtually mimic the age-old crime of capturing items of value and demanding money for their safe return. Ransomware typically arrives via email or a backdoor, locks up valuable computer files, and is followed by a demand for compensation, often in Bitcoin or another cryptocurrency. The hacker promises a decryption tool on payment of the ransom – but there is never any guarantee of delivery or efficacy of the decryption tool.
