Tenable Research revealed “LeakyLooker,” a set of nine novel cross-tenant vulnerabilities in Google Looker Studio. These flaws could have let attackers exfiltrate or modify data across Google services like BigQuery and Google Sheets. Google has since remediated all identified issues. We discovered and disclosed nine novel cross-tenant vulnerabilities in Google Looker Studio (formerly Data Studio).…

You can’t control when the next critical vulnerability drops. You can control how much of your environment is exposed when it does. The problem is that most teams have more internet-facing exposure than they realise. Intruder’s Head of Security digs into why this happens and how teams can manage it deliberately.Time-to-exploit is shrinkingThe larger and…
The OT security time bomb: Why legacy industrial systems are the biggest cyber risk nobody wants to fix

Why everyone knows it’s burning, but nobody pulls the fire alarm: When I talk to OT managers, production leads or plant engineers, I rarely hear, “We didn’t know we had a problem.” Far more often, it’s, “We know it’s critical, but we can’t just shut it down.” This gap between awareness and action is the…

The SSO fallacy: Why authentication is not a guarantee: I’m often asked by business and technology leaders, “If we have SSO enabled, why do we still need to worry about granular access controls?” The underlying assumption is that once a user is authenticated through a central, secure portal, the hard work is done.In practice, SSO…

The remediation black hole: Perhaps most frustrating was what happened after we received findings. Our teams would work diligently to implement fixes, but we rarely had the budget or opportunity to bring testers back to validate remediation. We were left with uncertainty.
