SAST vs SCA Testing
SAST scans the code you wrote; SCA scans the code you imported. Here's the real difference, with Equifax, Log4Shell, and xz as case studies.
CycloneDX vs SPDX: SBOM Format Comparison 2026
A practical CycloneDX vs SPDX comparison for 2026 buyers: schema depth, tool support, regulatory alignment, and which format to pick for which use case.
SCA vs SBOM: What's the Difference
SCA and SBOM aren't the same thing: one is a scanning process, the other is a compliance artifact. Here's how they differ and why you need both.
Dependency Confusion Attack
How dependency confusion attacks exploit registry name collisions to run attacker code inside corporate networks, from Alex Birsan's 2021 research to the 2022 PyTorch breach.
CNAPP vs CASB: what's the difference?
CNAPP and CASB are often confused, but they secure different things. Here's how they compare, how Prisma Cloud fits, and where supply chain security comes in.
Supply Chain Risks of AI Coding Assistants
Copilot, Cursor, and Claude Code change what enters your codebase and how. A practitioner's map of the real supply chain risks — hallucinated packages, rules-file injection, and unreviewed transitive trust.
State of ASPM 2026: key trends and emerging threats
ASPM went mandatory in 2026. Here's how supply chain attacks, AI-generated code, and Prisma Cloud's cloud-first architecture are reshaping what buyers actually need.
What is an Attack Surface
An attack surface is every exposed point attackers can use to get in — code, configs, credentials, and dependencies. Here's how to define, measure, and shrink it.
What is a Zero-Day Vulnerability
A zero-day vulnerability is exploited before a patch exists. See real cases like Log4Shell and MOVEit, and how to cut response time.
What is a CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures)
A CVE is a unique ID for a known security flaw, but how it's assigned, scored, and disclosed is far messier than the name suggests.
Securing the cloud with Cortex XSOAR and Prisma Cloud (SO...
Cortex XSOAR and Prisma Cloud automate cloud incident response, but SOAR reacts to runtime alerts. Here's why supply chain provenance still needs a separate layer.
