Different day, different group, same story. Ransomware attacks continue to disrupt our infrastructure, our states, and our way of life. Can we do something differently to better defend ourselves? The answer is yes. Currently, we’re mostly doing more of the same - more security controls, more user education, more segmentation, and increased scrutiny of user privileges. But one critical step we're still overlooking is ransomware posture testing: automatically emulating ransomware attack chains from start to finish. Test, validate, remediate, repeat. It’s time to get 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 and test our ransomware readiness before the attack happens. The technology is already here. #ransomware #SecurityValidation #Medusa #RansomwareReady

Unlike ransomware - it exploits your systems without a trace. Don’t let this invisible threat go unnoticed and join our Cyber Pulse webinar to uncover how cryptojacking works, the risks it poses, and how to defend against an attack designed to stay hidden. 📅 April 2, 2025 | ⏰ 11:30 am EST / 5:30 pm CET Register Today! https://okt.to/J53t8o #Cryptojacking #Cryptomining #CyberPulse

What an incredible experience! Our International Women’s Day 2025 panel brought together four outstanding women in cybersecurity, each with a unique journey and perspective. The discussion was insightful, honest, and deeply inspiring. Hearing from Iris Nachshony, Erika Mata Sanchez, PhD, CISSP, CISM, CISA, CCISO, CDPSE, Katrin Frank, and @Hila D alongside our wonderful moderator Debra Brown, highlighted why diversity in leadership is so important. Their stories of resilience, growth, and overcoming challenges left a lasting impression. Pentera’s CEO opened the panel by reinforcing the power of diverse teams—not just as a value, but as a driver of innovation and success. He encouraged us all to be active in bringing more women into cybersecurity and ensuring career growth remains uninterrupted, even during life milestones like maternity leave. The hope is that in the future, this conversation won’t be necessary—because inclusion will be second nature. At Pentera, we’re committed to creating a workplace where talent thrives, mentorship flourishes, and barriers continue to break. This panel was a powerful reminder that change happens when we support each other. A heartfelt thank you to our speakers and everyone who joined us. Let’s keep pushing forward—together. #IWD2025 #WomenInTech #Cybersecurity #DiversityInTech
