Submarine Cable Resilience Faces Growing Threats From Aging Fleets and Concentrated Ownership

Submarine cables underpin global communications, yet shipping accidents, sabotage risks and aging repair fleets threaten their resilience. Growing private ownership and fragmented international oversight raise difficult questions about infrastructure security, maintenance and accountability.

Verisign Informed™ Is a New High-Assurance Solution for Validating Trust

Earlier today, Verisign announced the launch of Verisign Informed, a new solution -- backed by Verisign's high-assurance infrastructure -- that combats the threat of "stale trust" in digital certificates by enabling critical trust decisions to be made using the most current status information available.

Why Container Security Is Still Fighting Yesterday’s Battle

Rule-based container security can miss attacks that evade predefined patterns, prompting an argument for behavioral detection that models activity across Kubernetes workloads and control planes while retaining rules for known threats.

From Forgotten to Exploited: How AI Changes the Dangling DNS Threat

Dangling DNS records can expose trusted corporate subdomains to takeover, while AI-assisted reconnaissance makes abandoned resources easier to find, increasing the need for continuous DNS monitoring rather than periodic audits.

What Reagan-Era Cyber Strategists Can Teach America Today

Reagan-era cyber strategists anticipated today's transnational threats, proposing international treaties, public-private cooperation and infrastructure protections. As America again considers aggressive action against cybercriminals, their largely forgotten blueprint offers both lessons and warnings.

The Dual-Front Challenge: Why Route Security (RPKI) is the Prerequisite for Quantum Readiness (PQC)

Internet security risks advancing unevenly: post-quantum cryptography may protect data while vulnerable routing still enables hijacks. Universal RPKI adoption, paired with cryptographic agility, is essential to build an Internet trust architecture ready for quantum threats.

DNS Security Gets Fixed When Someone Notices - Not Before

A study of 309 universities, museums and sports brands finds DNS security follows visible threats rather than technical risk, leaving organisations well protected against familiar attacks while quieter weaknesses in critical infrastructure persist unnoticed.

Phantom Squatting: When LLMs’ Hallucination Becomes an Attacker’s Best Friend

As AI reshapes cybersecurity, attackers are exploiting a fundamental weakness in large language models. Phantom squatting turns hallucinated domain names into trusted attack vectors, creating a new class of DNS abuse that defenders cannot solve by eliminating hallucinations alone.

.PK ccTLD Governance Issues and Pakistan’s Digital Future

Pakistan's .pk domain has long been controlled by a private company abroad, raising concerns over digital sovereignty, cybersecurity and accountability. Repeated breaches, offshore infrastructure and weak governance have left a critical national asset exposed and contested.

From Uptime to Trust: The Domain Security Strategy Behind Business Continuity

Domains and DNS underpin modern business operations, yet security gaps remain widespread. CSC's latest research shows why stronger domain protections are essential to resilience, helping companies reduce disruption, safeguard trust, and maintain continuity when attacks strike.
