Securing the Next Era: Why Agentic AI Demands a New Approach to API Security
I’ve spent my career building solutions to protect the API fabric that powers modern businesses. I founded Salt because I saw that traditional security tools such as WAFs, gateways, and CDNs weren’t designed to see or secure APIs. That gap led to breaches, blind spots, and billions in risk. Today, we’re facing a new wave…

Palo Alto kauft CyberArk
Tags: ceo, cloud, cybersecurity, cyersecurity, endpoint, firewall, google, governance, identity, infrastructure, network, risk, toolDer israelische Identity-Management-Anbieter CyberArk wird Teil von Palo Alto Networks. Mit der Übernahme des Identity-Management-Spezialisten CyberArk für rund 25 Milliarden Dollar geht Palo Alto Networks möglicherweise das größte Risiko seiner Geschichte ein. Faszinierend ist dieser Deal insbesondere deshalb, weil Palo Alto Networks über Jahre den Bereich Identity Management bewusst gemieden hat. Und das aus gutem…

Lumma Stealer Masquerades as Pirated Apps to Steal Logins and Data
Lumma Stealer, a notorious information-stealing malware-as-a-service (MaaS) platform, has swiftly reemerged after a coordinated global law enforcement operation in May 2025. The U.S. Department of Justice, alongside international partners, seized approximately 2,300 malicious domains integral to Lumma’s command-and-control (C&C) infrastructure, including administrative login panels. This disruption severed connections between infected endpoints and exfiltration servers, temporarily…
