Info & Advice

There are few IT tasks less glamorous than patching and software updates. This really is the IT task that’s easy to postpone. But unfortunately, cybercriminals and software failures don’t care about competing priorities.

Shadow AI, the use of AI tools without formal oversight, is driven by people trying to work faster, and make use of tools that are embedded in the applications they already use. But without visibility, it creates risk.

Deepfakes are rapidly becoming a major cybersecurity risk. Learn what they are, how they work, and how to protect your business and people from AI-driven fraud.

DMARC enforcement done? Now what. Discover why visibility and ongoing monitoring are critical for NZ agencies to maintain email security and confidence under SGE.

Unsanctioned cloud apps aren’t new. What’s changed is the scale and visibility. Teams are using more cloud tools than ever, often without formal approval. This is what’s commonly referred to as Shadow IT, and in 2026, it’s accelerating.

Identity has become the new security perimeter – and it’s under more pressure than ever. Modern environments are now made up of not just people, but thousands of service accounts, machine identities and increasingly autonomous AI agents, all operating at speed.

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) is emerging as a practical response to a problem many organisations are already feeling – that traditional VPN‑based remote access no longer reflects how people, applications and environments actually operate.

Software supply chain attacks are becoming one of the hardest cyber threats for organisations to detect – and a recent incident involving Axios shows why.

Every organisation wants to move forward. But something interesting often happens when organisations genuinely try to innovate. They discover that the foundations they’re building on are far more fragile than they realised.

We talk a lot about zero trust, multi‑factor authentication and identity protection. But in many environments, security models still quietly assume one thing – a person at the keyboard. That assumption no longer reflects reality.

AI has moved from novelty to normal almost overnight. Teams are using tools like ChatGPT to draft emails, summarise meetings, analyse data and speed up everyday work. In many cases, this experimentation is already happening whether leadership knows it or not.

At the end of last month, many of us were shocked to hear of another cyber attack on a healthcare platform, this time one affecting our aged community. The incident once again placed cyber security firmly in the public spotlight, highlighting just how vulnerable even trusted digital services can be.
