Top Cloud Privileged Access Management Best Practices to Prevent Privilege Abuse
Privileged access abuse is behind most major cloud breaches. And it’s not always a sophisticated attacker sometimes it’s a misconfigured service account that nobody reviewed in two years, or an IAM role inherited from an acquisition that was never cleaned up. The access was sitting there ungoverned and waiting. That’s exactly the problem cloud… First…

CUPS Vulnerabilities Could Allow Remote Attackers to Achieve Root-Level Code Execution
A team of AI-driven vulnerability hunting agents directed by security researcher Asim Viladi Oglu Manizada has discovered two critical security flaws in CUPS, the standard printing system for Linux and Unix-like operating systems. When chained together, these vulnerabilities allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to gain unprivileged remote code execution and eventually escalate their access to…

What we learned about TEE security from auditing WhatsApp’s Private Inference
WhatsApp’s new “Private Inference” feature represents one of the most ambitious attempts to combine end-to-end encryption with AI-powered capabilities, such as message summarization. To make this possible, Meta built a system that processes encrypted user messages inside trusted execution environments (TEEs), secure hardware enclaves designed so that not even Meta can access the plaintext. Our…
