💳 Scattered Spider isn’t just going after endpoints anymore—they’re going straight for the hypervisor. And in finance, that’s where the real damage happens. From SIM swaps to ESXi encryption, their tactics are built to quietly take down the systems that keep banking, trading, and payments running. We break it all down in our latest Cloud Security Alliance blog—plus what financial orgs can do to stay ahead of the next outage: https://hubs.li/Q03Ss-S00 #ESXi #hypervisorsecurity #cybersecurity #finance #ransomware #infosec #VMware

💡 Still not enforcing #MFA on your #hypervisors? That’s a blind spot attackers are counting on. #Ransomware groups are skipping endpoints and going straight for #ESXi—where one breach can take down hundreds of workloads in minutes. Our latest Cloud Security Alliance blog breaks down why MFA is one of the simplest, most effective ways to stop these attacks before they start: https://hubs.li/Q03TR4WN0 #cybersecurity #ESXi #MFA #hypervisorsecurity #ransomware #infosec #zerotrust

CISOs: 2026 is the year to secure the #hypervisor. Even the best endpoint, network, and cloud defenses can’t stop what’s happening beneath them. 💥 Hypervisor #ransomware has caused over $1B in damage in just four years. 💥 VMware #ESXi is now its own attack surface in MITRE ATT&CK v17. 💥 And most orgs still lack visibility into their hypervisors. Marks & Spencer, MGM, and Co-op Group have all paid the price—hundreds of millions lost and operations frozen for months. It’s time for CISOs to lead the charge in #virtualization security. This blog breaks down: - The real cost of hypervisor breaches - Why traditional defenses fail - What 2026 will demand from infrastructure-level protection 🔗 Read the full article: https://hubs.ly/Q03TnqG40 #CISO #cybersecurity #ESXi #virtualization #cloudsecurity #MITREATTACK #ransomware #infosec #ZeroLock

🔒 Handling CUI under #NIST 800-171? Your biggest blind spot may be the hypervisor. #ESXi #hypervisor ransomware attacks exploit the very foundation of virtual infrastructure, yet most compliance strategies still overlook it. Our latest article on Cloud Security Alliance explains how to close this gap — from access control and monitoring to configuration management — and why securing the hypervisor is essential for protecting CUI: https://hubs.li/Q03RRBMk0 #hypervisorsecurity #NIST800171 #cybersecurity #compliance #infosec #ransomwareprotection

Boards are used to hearing about endpoint risk, cloud risk, third-party #risk. What they’re hearing far less about—and feeling the impact of—is #hypervisor risk. Recent #ESXi attacks have shown that when this layer is compromised, the fallout isn’t technical—it’s financial. Marks & Spencer, MGM Resorts, and Johnson Controls all learned the same lesson: a hypervisor breach can reshape earnings, disclosures, and board oversight overnight. In his latest Forbes Technology Council briefing, our CTO and Cofounder Austin Gadient breaks down why #MITRE’s new ESXi matrix, SEC material-impact rules, and the scale of recent losses are pushing this from an IT discussion to a governance one—and the questions boards should be asking in their next risk review. 📄 Read it here: https://hubs.li/Q03Rr4LG0 #cybersecurity #boardrisk #ransomware #hypervisorsecurity #infosec

ICYMI — Gartner just released its Top Strategic Technology Trends for 2026: https://lnkd.in/eZhZ6Jqz One trend stood out: Preemptive #Cybersecurity. Gartner predicts that by 2030, preemptive solutions will account for half of all #security spending as organizations shift from reactive defense to proactive protection. We think Gartner got this exactly right. At Vali Cyber, we built ZeroLock® around that very principle: preemptive protection at the #hypervisor layer. #ZeroLock’s capabilities like SSH-MFA, anti-tampering controls, and virtual patching stop attacks before they can compromise workloads. Because the best defense is not reaction, it's prevention. #Gartner #preemptivesecurity #ESXi #hypervisorsecurity #cyberresilience
