Following a series of high-profile cyberattacks this year including M&S, Jaguar Land Rover and on systems affecting European airports, the UK Government is elevating security standards in accordance with rising threat levels, to protect UK citizens. As the recent National Cyber Security Centre review found, the UK experienced 204 “nationally significant” cyber incidents in the 12 months The post How immersive learning can bolster training for Cyber Security & Resilience Bill compliance and trust first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

Imagine a new kind of geopolitical battlefield that isn’t composed of tanks and soldiers but of lines of code and the machines that execute them. This isn’t science fiction; it reflects the reality of a global struggle for technology. The next major conflict could begin with a cyberattack on a factory.

In a rapidly digitizing world, the threat landscape is evolving at a pace far imagined. Cybercriminals are no longer relying solely on crude phishing emails riddled with grammar mistakes or brute-force hacking tools. The use of Vishing (voice phishing) and whaling (which targets senior leadership and C-level executives) is now more pronounced and potent, with The post Deepfakes and AI Spoofing as Ransomware Delivery Tools: A New Era of Digital Deception first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

The Internet of Things (IoT) has profoundly transformed the healthcare sector, ushering in an era of interconnected medical devices that enhance patient care, optimize operational processes, and facilitate data-driven decision-making. Examples of such IoT devices include wearable heart monitors, smart infusion pumps, connected imaging systems, and remote patient monitoring tools, all of which are revolutionizing The post Dynamic Threat Mitigation in Smart Healthcare IoT: Adapting Cybersecurity for Real-Time Medical Device Attacks first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

Looking Back, Looking Forward The past year was dominated by one theme: scale. Scale in data, in AI adoption, in the speed of attacks, and in the number of systems security teams must protect without additional resources. In 2025, organizations tried to understand how deeply AI systems touch their environments, how much of their data The post 2026 Cybersecurity Predictions: A CTO’s View of What Comes Next first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

Introduction A few weeks ago, I was reviewing post-incident reports discussed at a major security conference panel. The most shocking takeaway wasn’t about ransomware, nation-state hackers, or AI-powered exploits. It was this: most organizations can’t tell you how many machine identities they actually have. Not “won’t tell you.” Can’t. They don’t know. And that single The post The Human & Machine Identity Blur — Why Your Non-Human ‘Users’ Are the Next Big Attack Surface first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.

The Governance Gap Emerging in the Age of AI For decades, enterprise identity governance has answered a simple question: “Who has access to what and why?” That model worked when all actors were humans or static service accounts. But today’s enterprise runs on a new kind of digital participant – AI agents that log into The post AI Agent Governance: The Next Pillar of Zero Trust and Compliance first appeared on Cybersecurity Magazine.
