In December 2024, Cyberhaven fell victim to a sophisticated cyberattack that exploited a phishing campaign targeting its Chrome Web Store account. This breach compromised over 400,000 users by injecting malicious code into its browser extension, exfiltrating sensitive data such as cookies and session tokens. The incident ...

Code42 Incydr is among the legacy solutions aiming to mitigate insider threats, yet it doesn’t always meet every organization’s needs. In the following article, we examine Code42’s capabilities and limitations through a 60-question FAQ that addresses everything you'd want to know when evaluating DLP and IRM solutions.

BYOD — whether instituted as a formal policy or as an adaptation to the pandemic — opens a company’s systems and platforms up to hacking, data loss, and insider threat. IT teams need to be aware of these critical BYOD security concerns, as well as implement best practices to mitigate the risks associated with shadow IT.

Cloud security. Cloud architecture. Cloud storage. As you start scaling your business, you know “the cloud” is an important element of your IT capabilities. But, it can be a little confusing to understand the ins and outs of “the cloud” — especially when it comes to using cloud-based tools for your company to work remotely.

At the end of 2020, we hosted a webinar alongside Sisense's Chief Security & Trust Officer, Ty Sbano titled Securing Best of Breed SaaS applications in 2021. The discussion focused on reviewing the most important security trends of last year and how that should inform security programs this year. As 2021 continues to progress, these are the 4 trends and lessons we think are worth keeping in mind.

If the last year has taught us anything, “hope for the best and plan for the worst” should be the new mantra of business owners and IT professionals. No one could have predicted the global pandemic that wreaked havoc on industries and businesses around the world; yet, those companies with a business continuity plan were far better off than those without one.

Compliance regimes may seem burdensome, but the goal of these policies is to prevent a devastating data breach that can bankrupt a business and cause myriad problems for consumers. It’s important to understand the differences between compliance and security, as well as how data loss prevention (DLP) allows your organization to accomplish both objectives efficiently and affordably.

The Nightfall blog is a resource for information security professionals to learn more about the challenges we face in the industry. Every week, Nightfall publishes news and insights from the world of cloud security to help you stay current with the cybersecurity world and better prepare for threats before they become serious problems.

Strong data loss prevention (DLP) requires a multifaceted process that requires layering tools, policies, and approaches. In addition to having a range of network, endpoint, and cloud DLP solutions in place, businesses need a strong foundation of policies, guiding principles, and rules underpinning the approach to data security.

In a recent survey, 84% of organizations reported finding it difficult to maintain security configurations across their cloud services. Organizations across industries are struggling to protect their valuable information, in part because they don’t understand the extent of security measures built-in to cloud platforms. As a result, Gartner predicts that 95% of all cloud security failures (through 2020) will be primarily the customer’s fault.

Data exfiltration poses a significant threat to organizations across all industries. With cybercriminals using increasingly sophisticated methods to illicitly obtain sensitive information, IT and security teams face the daunting task of protecting their digital assets against both internal and external threats. This webinar will provide your team some practical strategies to enhance your company's defenses against data exfiltration.

Email remains a critical channel for business communication and also remains a prime exfiltration and attack vector. Traditional Secure Email Gateways (SEGs) and rules-based DLP solutions are proving inadequate against data loss, exfiltration, sophisticated attacks and the complexities of modern cloud environments. Whether your organization relies on Gmail or Exchange or a hybrid email environment, Nightfall AI can protect your email against data loss and exfiltration with a comprehensive, flexible, and efficient approach to protecting your email across platforms.

Nightfall for Notion DLP is purpose-built to pinpoint sensitive data across Notion workspaces. Whether you’re using Notion as an internal wiki, a note-taking app, or something more, Nightfall’s AI-powered detectors will identify and remediate high-priority risks to ensure that your business stays continuously secure and compliant as you scale.

All employees have a part to play in keeping company secrets safe—however, developers have an outsized role due to their privileged access to sensitive databases, production systems, and source code. With these unique challenges in mind, Nightfall partnered with Snyk to offer AI-powered secrets scanning for developers working in every stage of the code-to-cloud lifecycle.

Generative AI is exploding, allowing companies to do more with less. It is, however, also exposing companies to more data security risks than ever before. In our upcoming fireside chat, we'll join Enrique Salem, former CEO of Symantec, and Isaac Madan, CEO of Nightfall, to discuss the biggest security risks of Gen AI, as well as strategies you need to stay compliant without impacting employee innovation. By the end of the chat, you'll be armed with the tools you need to safely use ChatGPT and other Gen AI tools across your business. See you there!

Healthcare organizations require an effective way to scale HIPAA compliance enforcement across their cloud applications without excessive time and resource commitment. This requires a high-accuracy solution capable of parsing context to identify PHI violations as they are defined by HIPAA
Data loss prevention (DLP) is an important part of data security and compliance in the cloud, especially for organizations regulated by HIPAA. Furthermore, healthcare teams using Slack must follow specific guidelines laid out in Slack’s Business Associate Agreement (BAA).
Data loss prevention (DLP) is an important part of data security and compliance in the cloud, especially for organizations using SaaS applications that store high volumes of data. Companies turn to DLP solutions to discover, classify, and protect their sensitive data in environments like Jira, and maintain compliance with regimes like GDPR, CCPA, PCI, and more.
Data loss prevention (DLP) is an important part of data security and compliance in the cloud, especially for organizations using SaaS applications that store high volumes of data. Companies turn to DLP solutions to discover, classify, and protect their sensitive data in environments like Google Drive, and maintain compliance with regimes like GDPR, CCPA, PCI, and more.

As a result of growing data breaches governments across the world are beginning to implement compliance regimes which require organizations to understand the quantity and nature of that data they’re ingesting. The Nightfall developer platform is designed to help organizations accomplish this with APIs that allow developers to stream data to our machine learning detectors for classification.
As organizations continue to rapidly adopt SaaS and cloud infrastructure, IT and security teams are becoming stretched. The expanding universe of business-critical cloud applications creates increased risk for the exposure of sensitive data like PII, PHI, as well as secrets and credentials. Cloud data protection is essential to ensuring employees follow best practices for handling sensitive data and that systems are configured in a manner that prevents unauthorized access.
