A compromised identity → lateral movement → cloud-wide breach. Storm-2949's technique is a clean reminder: in cloud environments, identity *is* the perimeter. Once one credential falls, the blast radius isn't bounded by a network segment anymore — it's bounded by IAM policies. Which are often... generous. #infosec #cloudSecurity #identityAndAccess

Malware Analysis, News and Indicators
LMG SecurityDec 18, 2025

Microsoft’s upcoming 2026 security features highlight a shift many organizations are already experiencing: collaboration platforms and identity workflows are now prime attack paths.

From Teams-based impersonation to AI-driven data exposure, these updates address behaviors attackers are actively abusing — often without malware or zero-days. Security leaders should treat this roadmap as a planning signal, not a future wish list.

Forget the hype over massive password leaks. The real cybersecurity failure? Relying on passwords alone in 2024. Billions of leaked credentials should get attackers nowhere if you have strong identity and access controls in place. Move beyond passwords with MFA, conditional access policies, security keys or passkeys. Focus on identity-centric security, not sensational headlines.

Delivering on the Promise of Application Security in the Cloud - Security Weekly

Application security has become a complex, distributed problem.  During the days of waterfall development and monolithic applications, application security was pretty straight forward – statically scan your source code, dynamically test your business logic, and deploy a web application firewall to protect layer 7 traffic.  But with agile development, DevOps processes, and containerized applications, application […]

Sysmon Endpoint Monitoring: Do You Really Need an EDR? - Security Weekly

The endpoint market has been hot for years.  At one point, there were over 80 new endpoint vendors trying to displace the traditional anti-virus vendors.  The endpoint security market was transitioning from endpoint protection to endpoint detection and response (EDR).  EDR is all the rage, but do you really need one? While the endpoint market […]
