Welcome back to the series on the IEC 62443 standard for industrial cybersecurity. This third installment will investigate the documents that are part of the second series of documents, or documents in the IEC 62443-3 series. This series of documents are much more operational in nature than the ones from previous articles. So those of The post IEC 62443: A Cybersecurity Guide for Industrial Systems (Part 4) first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

At the ETSI Security Conference 2025, we spoke with Ollie Whitehouse, Chief Technical Officer at the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), about the evolving global cybersecurity landscape, emerging threats in telecommunications, the role of standards and cross-sector collaboration, and how organizations can prepare for the challenges ahead.   Ollie, could you share how you The post ETSI Security Conference 2025 – Insights into the Global Cybersecurity Landscape with NCSC’s Ollie Whitehouse first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

Introduction In today’s increasingly connected world, cybersecurity has become a critical aspect of protecting sensitive information from malicious actors. With cyber threats becoming increasingly advanced, companies need to strategize their cyber defenses to get the next step ahead. More complex and advanced firewalls and antivirus software are no longer sufficient and applicable to deal with The post Predictive Cyber Defense with Agentic AI first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

Modern vehicles rely heavily on software, increasing their vulnerability to cybersecurity threats.Memory safety is now top of mind and the rise of Rust offers more memory safety and combines with C/C++ for automotive systems, in attempt to mitigate inherent vulnerabilities. Formal verification ensures software correctness through mathematical assurance, reducing risks and costs with changing landscapes The post Securing the Software-Defined Vehicle: How Rust and Formal Verification are Revolutionizing Automotive Cybersecurity first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

The threat of an OT cyber-attack isn’t just an operational risk. It’s also a financial one. Companies across critical infrastructure and process industries spend billions each year on OT cybersecurity. But breaches keep happening, and when they do, the costs are not confined to IT. They include production losses, fines, and reputational damage. In some The post The Real Cost of OT Cyber: Why Process-Level Security Is a Financial Decision first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

The numbers tell a sobering story. Cloud intrusions surged 136% in just the first half of 2025, according to CrowdStrike’s latest Threat Hunting Report. But what should keep data protection officers awake at night is that 81% of these intrusions used zero malware. No viruses, no trojans. Just stolen credentials and patient adversaries who understand The post Data Security Wake-Up Call: How Modern Cyberattacks Are Redefining Privacy and Compliance first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

In today’s digital economy, data is often described as “the new oil” because of its role in fueling artificial intelligence (AI), exciting user experiences, driving predictive analytics, and enhancing operational efficiency. However, unlike oil, which is regulated through international trade laws and environmental controls, data does not have as much control and oversight as Oil, The post Governance Gaps: How Weak Data Policies Invite AI-Driven Ransomware first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

AI agents are creating powerful new opportunities for both businesses and everyday users — from smarter customer experiences to increased efficiency. At the same time, they introduce serious cybersecurity risks, as adversaries weaponize these agents to mimic real users, maintain fake identities, and evade detection.
