Privacy infrastructure has historically prioritized neutrality — encrypted traffic flows without inspection.
However, a new initiative involving ExpressVPN and the Internet Watch Foundation introduces a different architectural approach to restrict known CSAM domains.
The mechanism relies on OpenBoundary, a DNS-level filtering technology designed to block only domains verified by IWF.
Technical characteristics include:
• DNS resolver-level domain verification
• No deep packet inspection
• No encryption termination
• No traffic logging or user identification
If a requested domain appears on the IWF verified list, the connection is dropped at the network boundary.The initiative - “Not on My Network” - is also encouraging adoption across the privacy infrastructure ecosystem, including CyberGhost VPN, Private Internet Access.
For security engineers, this raises an important architectural question:
Can network-level safeguards address exploitation risks without weakening encryption guarantees?Source: https://www.expressvpn.com/blog/not-on-my-network-iwf-csam-domains/

Cyber insurance is meant to protect you... so why are so many claims denied? 🤔
Turns out the biggest breach drivers aren’t sophisticated attacks — they’re the everyday hygiene gaps insurers assume you’ve already handled.
#MFA, #patching, leaked credentials… if these slip, payouts often do, too.

We're excited to share this eye-opening Brand Story conversation thanks to our friends at Zscaler 🙏
#Ransomware has evolved. Attackers no longer need to encrypt your data—they're stealing it and threatening public exposure unless you pay.
At #BlackHat2025, Brett Stone-Gross from #Zscaler reveals how this shift changes everything about defense strategies.
The new reality organizations face:
• Stolen data moves slowly enough to avoid alerts—or quickly enough to overwhelm teams
• File transfer tools and other apps left exposed to the internet create easy entry points
• Advanced groups target single victims for multimillion-dollar payouts based on stolen data value
• The U.S. accounts for ~50% of ransomware incidents, making American companies prime targets
• Legacy systems in #healthcare, #manufacturing, and oil & gas amplify risksZscaler's #zerotrust approach tackles these challenges by:
• Eliminating internet-facing vulnerabilities—hiding applications from public view
• Advanced #threatprevention that blocks exploits before escalation
• Segmentation that prevents lateral movement from compromised accounts
• #DLP that detects and stops unauthorized data transfers
• Continuous monitoring that catches privilege escalation attemptsThe business impact?
Reduced attack surface, faster threat containment, lower risk of repeated incidents, and better security #ROI.When attackers can't see your applications, they can't exploit them.

We're proud to share this insightful Brand Story conversation thanks to our friends at ThreatLocker 😬
Simplifying #CyberSecurity Without Sacrificing Control
At #BlackHat2025, Danny Jenkins, CEO of #ThreatLocker, proves that effective cybersecurity doesn't have to be overly complex. The key? Security should be simple enough to implement quickly while still addressing evolving organizational needs.
Jenkins shares how ThreatLocker has moved beyond "magic" solutions to deliver tangible results—tools that block threats by default, simplify approvals, and make exceptions easy to manage. With over 54,000 organizations worldwide trusting their platform, they're showing that security doesn't have to slow business down.
A standout feature: ThreatLocker's Defense Against Configurations (#DAC) module performs 170 daily checks on every endpoint, aligning with #NIST and #FedRAMP frameworks. It doesn't just detect misconfigurations—it explains why they matter and how to fix them. Jenkins even admits it revealed gaps in ThreatLocker's own environment, fixed in minutes!
Plus, learn how their recent #FedRAMP authorization validates both product and company security maturity, benefiting federal agencies and commercial clients alike.

Always a pleasure spending time with Rob Allen and the whole ThreatLocker team - virtually or in person (better!!!) 😬
🎙️✨ Why Simplicity Might Be the Missing Ingredient in Your #ZeroTrust Strategy | An ITSPmagazine Brand Story with Rob Allen from ThreatLocker | #RSAC2025
At #RSAC Conference 2025, the ThreatLocker booth didn’t need flashing lights or gimmicks. Just a live PowerShell attack, a rubber ducky, and a crowd watching real protection in action. That’s how you cut through the noise.
In this Brand Story episode, Sean Martin, CISSP and Marco Ciappelli talk with Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, about why Zero Trust doesn’t need to be complicated to be effective. Instead of piling on tools, Rob explains why proactive control, vendor consolidation, and human connection are the real differentiators.
🙌 Huge thanks to #ThreatLocker for sponsoring our RSA Conference 2025 coverage and supporting meaningful conversations like this one.
