The Myth of “Known APIs”: Why Inventory-First Security Models Are Already Obsolete
You probably think the security mantra “you can’t protect what you don’t know about” is an inarguable truth. But you would be wrong. It doesn’t hold water in today’s threat landscape. Of course, it sounds reasonable. Before you secure APIs, you must first discover, inventory, and document them exhaustively. The problem is that this way…

DKnife targets network gateways in long running AitM campaign
A previously undocumented China-linked adversary-in-the-middle (AitM) framework known as “DKnife” has been identified operating at network gateways, where it intercepts and manipulates in-transit traffic. According to Cisco Talos’ findings, the framework has been active since at least 2019 and remains operational as of early 2026. Rather than targeting endpoints directly, DKnife is deployed at the…
