How Intruder finds what others miss in cloud security

2 weeks ago | theregister.com | David Gordon

Sponsored post You’d be naïve to believe that the cloud is secure by default, and while most hosting services provide basic defenses, it’s not always clear what level of protection these provide. Weak identity and access controls, inadequate encryption, insecure application programming interfaces (APIs), application and service misconfigurations, denial of service (DoS) attacks and insider threats – they can all lead to sensitive information stored in the cloud being lost or stolen.
Don’t let cyberattacks keep you down

1 month ago | theregister.com | David Gordon

Sponsored Post It's not a question of if your organization gets hit by a cyberattack - only when, and how quickly it recovers. Even small amounts of application and service downtime can cause massive disruption to any business. So being able to get everything back online in minutes rather than hours, or even days, can be the key to resilience. But modern workloads rely on increasingly large volumes of data to function efficiently.

Sponsored Post Every organization is vulnerable to cyber threats, and endpoint devices are a common target for cyber criminals. Some sources suggest that as many as originate at endpoint devices. The Cost of a Data Breach Report 2024 published jointly by IBM and Ponemon Institute also puts the average global cost of those data breaches at USD4.88m per incident. Protecting employees, devices and the sensitive information they hold from those attacks is crucial to business operations.

How to reduce AI hallucinations

Feb 12, 2025 | theregister.com | David Gordon

Sponsored Post Accurate data is fundamental to the success of generative AI (GenAI) - and so is Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). RAG can enhance the accuracy of GenAI workloads by processing large amounts of information pulled from external vector databases which the learning models at their core would not usually access. In doing so, it not only fine-tunes underling large (LLMs) and small language models (SLMs) by swapping in fresh data but also reduces the need to continually retrain them.
Give users confidence in your digital infrastructure

Jan 22, 2025 | theregister.com | David Gordon

Sponsored Post Research firm IDC estimates that over 53 percent of organizations are now mostly or completely digital native. It's a situation that brings considerable advantages but also challenges in safeguarding the high volumes of sensitive data which constantly traverse multiple on- and off-premises locations and end user devices. The good news is that those challenges could be solved with crypto-agility, automation, and quantum-safe encryption.
