Poorly protected machine identities are costing firms between USD $51 billion and USD $72 billion globally, according to a report by Venafi and AIR Worldwide.

Only 10% of organisations believe they have complete and accurate intelligence over all SSH machine identities.

Venafi has released the findings of its latest survey, revealing 75% of DevOps professionals say certificate issuance policies slow them down.

These mistakes increase security risks and negatively impact the reliability and availability of business-critical network resources, Venafi has found.

Less than half of DevOps professionals believe developers always request certificates that serve as machine identities through authorised channels.

The total number of certificates using lookalike domains is more than 400% greater than the number of authentic retail domains.

The integration allows network operations to orchestrate the lifecycle of SSL/TLS certificates and ensure security policies are enforced across devices.

Governments demanding encryption backdoors risk national security and economic stability, say experts, threatening vulnerabilities in election infrastructure.

Eliminating certificate-related outages within complex, multi-tiered architectures can feel like an impossible effort.

Machine identity protection solution secures code signing across organisations and guards against unauthorised use.

Intel-powered computers are facing a new vulnerability called 'ZombieLoad' WHERE id = which allows attackers to leak information from protected memory.

Certificate-related outages harm the reliability and availability of vital network systems and services while also being difficult to diagnose and remediate.

Government-mandated encryption backdoors make countries more susceptible to attacks from nation-states, according to a study by Venafi.

Seventy-two percent of professionals surveyed believe nation-states have the right to ‘hack back’ cybercriminals.

A study by Venafi reveals thriving dark web marketplaces selling SSL/TLS certificates for USD $260 to USD $1,600, enabling widespread cybercrime.

Cryptographic keys serve as machine identities and are the foundation of enterprise information technology systems.

Venafi warns of rising fake domains that mimic top retailers to scam online shoppers, as holiday season nears.

The study focused on enterprise machine identity protection challenges and included responses from 350 senior IT security professionals.

As companies integrate more digital tools into their business, many of them remain unaware of the risk code-signing certificates are exposing them to.
