The Threat Landscape is Becoming More Complex: Phishing and Social Engineering are Amplified

The threat landscape is becoming more complex: phishing and social engineering are amplified by generative AI, supply chain attacks, cloud configuration exploits, weak secrets and CI/CD pipelines.

Principles: assume nothing by default, verify every request, implement minimum privileges, and use contextual authentication.

The Threat Landscape is Becoming More Complex: Phishing and Social Engineering are Amplified

CI/CD: artifact signatures, SLSA, SBOM.

Cloud: IaC policies, configuration scanning.

Post-Quantum Migration

Inventory cryptography, hybrid protocols, test environments, a migration plan, client and server compatibility, and gradual replacement.

Security is a process. Teams must integrate controls into the software and data lifecycle.

Frequently asked questions

What does readiness assessment involve? Does it include a short audit of data?

Readiness assessment: a short audit of data, processes and available tools.

What is a pilot scenario? Should it be launched on a narrow case?

Pilot scenario: launch on a narrow key case with clear success metrics.

How should integration into the process be described? What about roles, SLAs, and control points?

Integration into process: description of roles, SLA, control points and responsibilities.

How should scaling be automated? Should monitoring be automated?

Scaling: automation of monitoring, cost optimization and stability.
