Introduction In the current information era, bots have become the crucial elements of online communications, completing different functions and almost fully automating processes and tasks. In contrast, not every bot is created similarly – some are meant to be helpful while giving a positive user experience. Still, others could lead…
Digital certificate management is vital to maintaining a secure and trusted cybersecurity environment. Every single legitimate website that uses a certificate must understand the importance of CLM or Certificate Lifecycle Management. Here, we’ll delve into what CLM means, why it’s important, and how organizations can effectively implement it. What is…
What is a Cyber Security Audit? Cyber security audits are the systematic analysis of an organization’s agents, policies, and procedures, with the help of which one can identify the discrepancies, risks, and vulnerabilities in organizing the information systems and compliance to the standards.

Introduction In the cyber world, where cyber threats are progressing ahead of speed, cybersecurity has become so crucial, and almost everybody thinks that cybersecurity factors are their most urgent need. Meanwhile, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), disregarding the responsibility, provided a resolution to this concern by designing…
What Is Certificate Pinning? Certificate pinning is a security measure where the client application checks against a copy known as the certificates the server is using. On the other hand, this cross-platform server application can serve as a cert pinning client as it embeds the certificate issued to the server…
To ensure secure connections between users and websites, organizations prioritize using SSL certificates, as it’s pretty evident that a website secured with an SSL certificate assures visitors that it’s safe to use. When it comes to obtaining SSL certs, there’s often a debate about whether to opt for free or…
SSL, TLS, and HTTPS are unique combinations that work together to protect sensitive information on the Internet. Understanding TLS, SSL, and HTTPS becomes essential if you use the most advanced encryption technologies to protect website content. Internet connections that are encrypted, or “secure,” are associated with HTTPS, SSL, and TLS.…
Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks are becoming more common nowadays. Installing software and apps on smartphones is becoming more popular than ever, giving criminals an easy way to get your information. The man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack is a type of cyberattack that allows hackers to gain access to data or communications between two…
eIDAS 2.0 – What’s New? The eIDAS 2.0 aims at amending the old eIDAS Regulation of 2014, providing solutions to the identified gaps and also pointing to new features such as trust services and the ID wallet. The European Commission presented a draft on the revision of eIDAS Regulation in…
A critical component of every security system is cryptography. They handle everything, including user identification, data encryption, and decryption. Any cryptographic key compromise could end up in the complete security architecture of an organization collapsing, giving the attacker access to additional sources of classified information, the ability to decode confidential…
The tremendous expanse of the internet is undoubtedly familiar to you from hearing about the mysterious “Dark Web.” But what is it? Is it ethical or even secure to use? Everything will become apparent from the information provided on the dark Web. You don’t need to worry; we’ll help you…
The year 2023 has been incredibly busy, and the year 2024 does not seem any better. These worries include the security flaws presented by artificial intelligence (AI) as well as the expanding regulatory obligations placed on chief information security officers (CISOs). Our security experts at Certera anticipate that the cybersecurity…
The holiday season is around the corner, and so the attackers are ready with their tools to leverage vulnerabilities. In recent years, some of the most impactful cyberattacks have also been discovered during Christmas and New Year. If you are a CISO or a senior security professional, then you don’t…
Crypto agility can be defined as a system’s capacity and willingness to quickly switch from its present cryptographic primitives and algorithms to the latest and most advanced ones. RSA-based public-key systems that rely upon discrete logarithm issues and large integer factorization are vulnerable to hacking with the introduction of quantum…
