As #RSAC2025 begins, here's a great snapshot of what adversaries are now focused on, and in turn what CISOs should be pivoting to detect & prevent.
We’re seeing a clear trend: attackers are bypassing the endpoint entirely. Not just avoiding traditional EDR-monitored systems by pivoting to embedded and edge devices, but now also operating purely in the cloud. No shell, no malware, no persistence on the endpoint. Just an OAuth.

One of the scariest phishing attempts I’ve seen in a long time. Good that Google has agreed to fix the root vulnerability, but in the meantime, be careful.

Important new primary research: The app for your internet-connected litter box should NOT require your wifi network password for connectivity. (Manufacturers should ensure the device can connect directly and securely w/o an app. Software is always the weakest link!) #IoTsecurity.

Barrenechea commits @OpenText to masking all of its data and eliminating passwords in favor of biometric authentication over the next two years. #OpenTextWorld
Barrenechea on integration: "With enterprise security you need to compose a solution. No company can do it all. All the (technology) partners in your ecosystem throw off security events, so you have to do it in a composable way, connecting disconnected islands." #OpenTextWorld.

I really like how @OpenText CEO/CTO Mark Barrenechea highlights the value of #AI in the enterprise in his opening keynote: "Every organization has two proprietary gifts: talent and data. AI transforms the value of both of those gifts." #OpenTextWorld.
