CSO Online: Attacks against operational technology (OT) networks are on the rise, fueled by geopolitical tensions and conflicts, as OT security fast becomes a mainstream concern.
Crunchbase: NinjaOne, which provides endpoint management, security and monitoring, raised $500 million in Series C extensions at a $5 billion valuation — more than doubling its value from just 12 months ago.
Investment Executive: Advocis faces its fourth legal claim in just over a year, this one arising from a cybersecurity contract the association allegedly terminated after naming its new CEO last fall.
Forbes: Amid rising concerns about data breaches, identity theft and privacy violations, cybersecurity has become more than just an IT and business operations necessity—it has become a brand differentiator.
Wealth Professional: Bybit, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, suffered a US$1.5bn security breach that has since triggered US$5.5bn in outflows.
Cybersecurity Dive: Insight Partners suffered a data breach in January stemming from what it described as “a sophisticated social engineering attack.” In a statement the private equity and venture capital firm said it initially detected unauthorized access to “certain Insight information systems” on Jan. 16.
Forbes: As a cybersecurity leader dedicated to safeguarding small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) from cyber threats, the shifting sands of the cybersecurity landscape are always top-of-mind.
Cybersecurity Dive: Palo Alto Networks confirmed that a high severity vulnerability, listed as CVE-2025-0108, in its PAN-OS management web interface was being exploited by attackers in the wild.

The Vector: HPE was notified on Dec. 12, 2023, that a suspected nation-state threat group had breached its Office 365 email environment. An investigation revealed that starting in May 2023, Midnight Blizzard actors accessed emails and pilfered data from mailboxes “belonging to individuals in our cybersecurity, go-to-market, business segments, and other functions.”
As phishing actors continue to explore every potential abuse opportunity on legitimate service providers, novel security gaps constantly threaten to expose users to severe risks. It is essential not to rely solely on email protection solutions, and also scrutinize every email that lands on your inbox, look for inconsistencies, and double-check all claims made in those messages.
