Identity used to be treated as a directory problem: find the user, inspect the groups, review the assigned roles, and decide whether the account has too much access. That model no longer matches the cloud. A single person may authenticate through Okta, inherit permissions from multiple groups, receive role assignments in more than one cloud,…

Cloud applications begin long before they reach the cloud. Source code, open-source dependencies, infrastructure definitions, container images and pull requests all shape what will eventually run in production. Yet these layers are often secured separately. Software Composition Analysis (SCA) tools inspect dependencies, Infrastructure as Code (IaC) scanners inspect configuration files, container scanners inspect artifacts and…

Software supply chain risk doesn't stop at the container boundary. Most organizations still run a meaningful share of production workloads on virtual machines across legacy services, data pipelines, and infrastructure that was never containerized. The Upwind Platform creates SBOMs at runtime, delivering greater accuracy than build-time tools by continuously monitoring your live environment. Format adds…

Focus Mode is now available in the Upwind platform, giving security teams a faster, more focused way to work. Instead of navigating across the platform, you can switch to Focus Mode to slice and dice the Upwind platform by Vulnerability Management, Cloud Security Posture, Attack Surface Management, Administration, or Threats, and starting next week, AI…

We’re excited to announce Upwind Attack Surface Management (ASM), a new way for security teams to discover unknown attack surfaces, understand risk exposure, and prioritize the issues that matter most. Security teams have spent years improving visibility across their environments. They use scanners, asset inventories, vulnerability management platforms, CSPM tools, and attack surface management solutions…

The moment an attacker initiates access to your network, evidence starts to appear, and in that moment, detections start to fire. That’s the moment you just start the hard part of investigating and discovering the true attack chain. Our goal shifts from monitoring to investigating - What was this workload actually doing? What happened before…

Executive Summary On June 1, 2026, unauthorized commits were pushed to repositories in the RedHatInsights GitHub organization and used to publish malicious versions of 32 packages under the @redhat-cloud-services npm scope.The campaign, tracked as Miasma, executes a 4.2 MB obfuscated payload through an npm preinstall hook the moment any of these packages is installed, directly…

After teams identify the risks that matter, the next challenge is proving which ones are actually exploitable. Severity scores, exposure labels, and long lists of findings can point teams in the right direction, but they do not always show whether an attacker has a viable path to impact. In cloud environments, that path often depends…

The AI threat landscape is moving faster on both sides. Attackers are using AI to scale campaigns, accelerate exploit development, and move faster from discovery to execution. Defenders need AI that helps them keep pace without adding noise or pulling teams away from the work that matters most. Prioritization helps teams focus on the risks…

This week, the Shai-Hulud npm campaign showed how quickly a compromised package can move through the software supply chain, jumping across trusted dependencies and reaching build pipelines before many teams even knew what they were looking at. But this is not just an npm story, and it is not just a story about one campaign.…
