Organizations need to know what’s running in their environments, manage dependencies carefully, and improve their ability to detect and remediate vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them.\nThe solution isn’t panic. It’s better security fundamentals.\n\nBrought to you by:\nBlack Hills Information Security \nhttps://www.blackhillsinfosec.com\n\n☯️ Introducing BHIS Fusion Penetration Testing\nhttps://www.blackhillsinfosec.com/fusion-penetration-testing/\nAntisyphon Training\nhttps://www.antisyphontraining.com/\n\nActive Countermeasures\nhttps://www.activecountermeasures.com\n\nWild West Hackin Fest\nhttps://wildwesthackinfest.com\n🔗 Register for FREE Infosec Webcasts, Anti-casts & Summits\nhttps://poweredbybhis.com","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/mN9_Xu9UJwoaajIvIvLd-Yygv-Vh_nJwEDItjPY09kA/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zYjBm/MzE1MWI2YmE4ZGJh/MDQ3MmJkMTkxZGNl/MjBjNS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
