Verizon says vulns are now the initial access vector in 20% of all breaches, a 34% rise year-over-year. Human error-caused breaches are right behind at 18%. Waratek's runtime security blocks attacks and remediates code without downtime or tuning. https://hubs.la/Q03jwTCC0

When a major CVE hits the news, the standard advice is always the same: patch it fast. But what if you're running a legacy Java app on an outdated framework? What if patching breaks integrations or the vendor hasn’t issued a fix? When it comes to compliance deadlines, "wait and see" isn't an option. That’s where compensating controls come in. These are solutions that “sufficiently offset the risk,” to let you meet regulatory requirements even when ideal fixes aren’t feasible. But to hold up under compliance scrutiny, they need to do more than sound good: ✅ They must be equivalent in strength (to the compliance framework) ✅ They must be verifiable ✅ And they must be auditable Most still workarounds fail this test. Waratek was built to pass it. We help security and compliance teams deploy compensating controls that are not only effective but defensible—transforming compliance from a checkbox into a resilience strategy. 👉 Learn how we do it: https://lnkd.in/gzMuNn_J #AppSec #Compliance #JavaSecurity #RiskManagement #Cybersecurity #Waratek #RuntimeSecurity #LegacySystems #CompensatingControls

ICYMI: The latest Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory for April 2025 reveals an increase of nearly 19% in the number of vulnerabilities compared to the January 2025 update. The advisory addresses several critical vulnerabilities requiring urgent patching, including a 300% increase in vulnerabilities for Oracle E-Business Suite and a 200% increase for JavaSE. https://lnkd.in/eH59nMj9

Oracle posted 378 bug fixes in the latest quarterly Critical Patch Update. Some of the CVEs impact multiple products - including Oracle EBS - and require immediate action. Watatek Secure customers are already protected in many cases. Read our analysis for more information.

Phishing click rates surged 190% in 2024. Generative AI is making phishing attacks faster and more convincing. Even trained professionals are falling for well-crafted messages that bypass traditional defenses. And when they do, Java-based enterprise applications are their juiciest target. The issue is, someone in your organization will always click. Training your staff and bolstering your perimeter visibility isn't good enough. It’s time to shift your security focus from perimeter detection to runtime protection, and cut off phishing attacks inside your application before they can do any damage. Java apps need a new line of defense. 👉 Read our latest blog to learn how: https://lnkd.in/gw_48udz #AIphishing #JavaSecurity #RuntimeProtection #AppSec #CISO #EnterpriseSecurity #Cybersecurity #GenerativeAI

Patch Tuesday saw Microsoft fix 136 known flaws including one actively exploited Zero Day. Next week Oracle has signaled nearly 400 patches could be released. How long will it take you to patch your Java flaws? https://hubs.la/Q03gZg7x0

50% of known exploited vulnerabilities are targeted within two days of public disclosure. 75% are targeted within the first 28 days. Meanwhile, the median time between disclosure and patch adoption for defenders is 151 days. You don’t have to be a mathematician to see those numbers don’t add up. Attackers are not doing security teams the courtesy of waiting around for them to jump off the starting line. While defenders await approvals from the CISO, the board and ops, threat actors are already making their move. Nobody likes going to the DMV. But deploying a patch for a known CVE can feel every bit as mired in bureaucracy. Waratek uses virtual patching to help our customers skip the line. No waiting around for approvals, no risk of breaking other operations, just show up to work and read the after-action report. Next time a new CVE is announced, you don’t have to be satisfied simply taking a number and waiting. Attackers aren’t sitting on their hands; why should you?

A new 10.0 CVSS vuln in Apache's Parquet Java library (CVE-2025-30065) could allow an attacker to steal or tamper with data, install malware, or disrupt services. Ask how Waratek can protect your apps without downtime or source code changes. https://hubs.ly/Q03g3Sww0

If a zero-day hit your Java applications right now, what would happen? Would you be scrambling for a fix—or would you already be protected? Waratek's runtime solution protects against known & uknown vulns. Ask how! https://hubs.la/Q03fDr7y0

🔒 Shadow IT is like Thanos—it's inevitable. About 65% of SaaS apps are unsanctioned and used without IT approval. Employees will always deploy unauthorized tools and cloud apps, creating invisible attack surfaces that traditional security can’t see—and regulators won’t overlook. The employees aren't the problem. These services are often good for productivity, even when they're bad for security. But in financial services, where compliance and uptime are critical, unsanctioned apps are a threat to data, trust, and audit-readiness. 🛡️ Waratek protects applications from the inside out, applying real-time runtime protection—even for shadow apps no one knows about. Let's break down the real risks of Shadow IT in finance—and how CISOs can respond. 👉 Read the blog: https://lnkd.in/gf-CAQ5D #Cybersecurity #ShadowIT #FinanceSecurity #CISO #AppSec #JavaSecurity #Waratek #RuntimeProtection
