The conversation around AI in cyber is loud right now. But are we focusing on the right problem? To us, the Gartner® report makes it clear: • Attackers move fast • Organisations respond slowly • And that gap is where risk lives Phishing and stolen credentials are still doing the damage. AI just makes it easier to take advantage of them. The real shift? • Move from risk awareness to risk reduction • Focus on fixing exposures faster • Measure what actually improves security outcomes This is not about hype. It is about closing the gap. 👉 Read the Gartner® report to understand what needs to change https://lnkd.in/gdhKVzFK

We had great day at the OT Summit in Aberdeen yesterday! It was fantastic to connect with so many professionals across the OT and critical infrastructure community, sharing insights on OT security, cyber resilience, and the challenges organisations are facing in an increasingly complex threat landscape. A big thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat with the team -Angharad Roberts, Jules Farrow-Lesnianski and Matthew Izzard. We enjoyed the conversations, meeting new faces, and hearing about the innovative work happening across the industry. And of course, we hope our dog toys found some happy new owners (and even happier dogs! 🐶) Thanks to the organisers for a great event. We're already looking forward to the next one. #OT #CyberResilience #CyberSecurity #CriticalInfrastructure #Sapphire

🔍 Weekly Threat Brief Cyber threats are evolving fast and attackers are finding new ways to take advantage of trusted identities, cloud services, AI platforms, and software supply chains. This week's brief highlights a growing shift away from traditional malware and towards techniques that abuse legitimate access, exploit vulnerabilities at speed, and target emerging AI technologies. Key findings include AI token theft leading to significant financial losses, attacks targeting passkey recovery processes, and continued supply chain compromises. For organisations, the message is clear: strengthening identity security, improving visibility across cloud and AI environments, and accelerating patch management are becoming critical priorities. The Vulnerability Wave is here is your organisation ready? 📖 Read the full brief here to stay informed: https://bit.ly/4boRvJf #VulnerabilityWave #CyberThreats #Cybersecurity

Ransomware is not the start of the attack. It's the outcome of risks that weren't addressed and threats that weren't stopped in time. It often comes down to: 🔹 Exposure left unchecked 🔹 Attackers gaining a foothold 🔹 Response happening too late That's why ransomware defence needs to go beyond prevention alone. By combining Halcyon's anti-ransomware protection with Sapphire's 24x7 Managed SOC, organisations can strengthen their ability to detect, contain, and respond to threats before they escalate into a ransomware incident. Cyber resilience is about reducing the impact of attacks and being ready to respond when they happen. The best ransomware defence starts long before encryption begins.

One of the biggest challenges in cyber security detection is that attackers often don't look suspicious. They're using valid credentials.Their actions can appear legitimate and they often blend into normal day-to-day activity. That's why behaviour analytics is becoming such an important part of modern security operations. Rather than focusing solely on known indicators, it helps identify activity that doesn't fit expected patterns. We're seeing strong results when organisations combine: ✅ Behaviour-based detection with Exabeam ✅ Managed MDR services One of the biggest challenges in cyber Together, these capabilities help reduce the time it takes to detect, investigate, and respond to threats before they have the chance to cause significant impact. The faster you can spot unusual behaviour, the faster you can take action.
