AI-Powered Tools Elevate Vulnerability Detection, Pressing Secure-by-Design Mandate
With AI-powered tools, companies can now instantly detect and fix software vulnerabilities, making ignorance a thing of the past when it comes to cybersecurity. As Hans de Vries of ENISA notes, this shift makes a secure-by-design approach not just best practice, but a pressing mandate.
ENISA Pursues Elevated Status in Global CVE Program
The European Union's cybersecurity agency, ENISA, is taking a major step forward in global cybersecurity by seeking top-tier status in the prestigious CVE Program, a move that could reshape the landscape of vulnerability management. If approved, ENISA would join an elite group of just three organizations with the highest level of authority in this critical program.
Hacktivist-Driven DDoS Stunning Surge Alarms Public Sector
Imagine a city more threatened by a flood of malicious internet traffic than a broken water main — last year denial-of-service attacks, many driven by hacktivists, made up about 60% of public-sector incidents, knocking out services and eroding trust without stealing a byte. With billions of poorly secured IoT devices and cheap DDoS-for-hire markets, even small groups can weaponize networks to silence government portals and disrupt daily life.
Cyberattack Disrupts European Airports: Exclusive Crisis
A cyberattack disrupts European airports — when screens go dark and check‑in kiosks freeze, travelers face long lines while staff switch to exhausting manual workarounds and cyber and law‑enforcement teams race across borders to restore systems and hunt the attackers.
Cyberattack Disrupts Airports: Exclusive Severe Response
What happens when the screens go dark? The recent cyberattack that wiped out kiosks and flight displays forced airport teams to improvise, lengthened queues and sparked a fast, cross‑border scramble to contain the damage and shore up fragile systems.
Cyberattack Hits EU Airports: Exclusive Critical Alert
A ransomware infection has rippled through EU airports, knocking out check‑in kiosks and flight displays and forcing travelers into long queues while teams scramble to isolate systems—was this criminal extortion, a state‑level probe, or a preventable collapse of ageing IT and lax supplier controls? Our exclusive alert explains what happened, who noticed first, and how authorities are racing to restore operations.
ransomware attack: Stunning Risk to European Airports
ENISA says ransomware knocked out check‑in systems at major European airports, forcing staff to go manual and stranding travellers in long queues. The disruption highlights how legacy IT and weak vendor security can turn a cyberattack into a real‑world travel crisis.
EU Cybersecurity Reserve Must-Have: Best Defense
ENISA’s new €36M EU Cybersecurity Reserve turns a long‑talked idea into a real, deployable digital fire brigade — pooling expert teams, forensic tools and logistics to help member states and critical infrastructure bounce back faster from cross‑border cyberattacks. If Europe pairs this funding with clear rules, joint exercises and legal certainty, the Reserve could become a reliable, lifesaving safety net rather than just another well‑intentioned plan.
