Smart Building Systems Are Being Used for Initial Access
HVAC controls, smart locks, lighting systems, and IoT sensors are often connected to the corporate network — but rarely monitored like IT systems.
Printers and Scanners Still Carry Firmware Vulnerabilities
Outdated printers are being exploited for persistence. They can store payloads, scan credentials, or bridge into corporate segments with weak network separation.
CCTV and IP Cameras Are a Goldmine for Recon
Compromised cameras provide attackers with footage of employee badges, physical layouts, meeting activity, and security routines.
Banish bad ads for good
Google AdSense's Auto ads lets you designate ad-free zones, giving you full control over your site’s layout and ensuring a seamless experience for your visitors. You decide what matters to your users and maintain your site's aesthetic. Google AdSense helps you balance earning with user experience, making it the better way to earn.
Access Badge Cloning Is Easier Than Ever
RFID-based keycards can be skimmed from a few feet away. Once cloned, attackers gain legitimate physical access — and blend in digitally afterward.
Conference Room Tablets Are Caching Sensitive Data
Room schedulers and wall-mounted dashboards often store cached credentials, calendar data, or links to internal resources, without timeouts or wipe logic.
Physical Assets Are Exempt from Standard Security Reviews
Despite being on the same networks, physical devices are not audited or patched like laptops or servers — creating a critical blind spot.
