Prompt Injection & Securing LLM-Powered Applications: The OWASP LLM Top 10 (2026)

Prompt injection is the SQL injection of the LLM era. The real attack classes behind the OWASP LLM Top 10 — direct and indirect injection, insecure output handling, tool and agent abuse — and the defenses that hold up in production.

Ransomware Readiness for SMBs (2026): Real Vectors, Practical Checklist

The real initial-access vectors behind ransomware — exposed services, weak credentials, unpatched CISA KEV entries — an SMB-sized readiness checklist, and how to find your exposure before an attacker does.

Why a free web penetration test is worth claiming — and how AssurePort's pilot actually works.

We're giving new accounts one full web pentest at no cost, for a limited time. Why it matters even for a small site, and the exact review-then-deliver process behind the report — no instant push-button scan, no shortcuts.

The CISA KEV catalog: the only patch queue that starts itself.

A scanner returns four thousand findings and nobody can say which one an attacker is using today. KEV answers exactly that — and almost nothing else does. How to run priority off it, where EPSS and SSVC fit, and the gap it cannot cover.

Zero-day response: the first 24 hours.

A zero-day announcement is not an incident. It becomes one only if it touches something you run, in a way that is reachable. The four questions for hour zero, how to contain what you cannot patch, and what to tell the business while you still do not know.

Attack surface discovery: the assets you forgot you had.

Every discovery pass produces the same finding: a host nobody owns, running software nobody patched, published by a certificate somebody requested two years ago. How certificate transparency, DNS and origin-IP exposure reveal it — without buying a platform.

PCI DSS 11.3.2: external vulnerability scanning vs an ASV scan.

Two things get called “the PCI scan” and only one of them produces an attestation your assessor can accept. What Requirement 11.3.2 asks for, what the ASV listing actually grants, and where a non-ASV scan earns its place between quarters.

The CSP nonce that quietly disabled our allowlist.

Under CSP Level 3 a valid nonce makes the browser ignore host-source expressions for that element — so stamping every script with a nonce turns script-src into a rubber stamp. We found it on our own platform. Here is the one-line fix and a five-minute test for your site.

Four alarms that never fired.

A broken alarm and a quiet system look identical from the outside. We audited our own monitoring and found a heartbeat with a dead payload, refund failures nobody was told about, a notification reporting work it had not done, and a gate that would have cried wolf.

Penetration Testing vs Vulnerability Scanning (2026).

A scan finds known flaws automatically; a penetration test proves which ones attackers can actually exploit. When to use each, the false-positive gap, what compliance requires, and the cost difference.

Black Box vs White Box vs Grey Box Penetration Testing.

Black, grey, or white box? How the three penetration testing approaches differ in tester knowledge, cost, coverage and compliance fit — with a comparison table and when to choose each.

API Penetration Testing: A 2026 Guide.

API penetration testing finds the access-control and auth flaws attackers reach first. The OWASP API Top 10 2023, REST vs GraphQL, the process, tools, compliance, and continuous testing.

Web Application Security: A Practical 2026 Guide.

Web app security is now a lifecycle discipline, not a code checkbox. We cover the 2026 threat landscape, what changed in the new OWASP Top 10:2025, seven best practices that move real risk, and how to test continuously from $69/scan.

How Much Does a Penetration Test Cost? (2026 Guide).

A pentest runs $5,000–$30,000 in 2026 — but the range spans 10x. We break down the seven cost drivers, price by test type, the compliance premium, the ROI math, and how to get continuous coverage for a fraction of one annual engagement.

AI Ethical Hacking: A Practical 2026 Guide.

82% of ethical hackers now use AI — but it makes you faster, not smarter. We map the augmented "bionic hacker" workflow, the tool categories that matter, where AI quietly fails, and how to stay legal while testing faster.

NIS2 2026: 7 Technical Controls Every 50+ Employee Company Must Implement.

NIS2 Article 21 is now enforceable. We walk through the seven technical control areas auditors and cyber insurers look at first — what each means in practice, the most common gap, and the evidence you need to produce.

Bridging the GRC Gap: Why Policies Fail Without Verification.

Writing security policies is only half the battle. We explore why static GRC controls remain a compliance liability until they are backed by continuous technical verification.

Preparing for an ISO 27001:2022 Audit: A Practical Guide.

Preparing for an ISO 27001 audit can feel overwhelming. We break down the key phases of Annex A controls assessment and how to streamline evidence collection.

Operationalizing NIS2: Building Resilient Incident Response Playbooks.

EU NIS2 Article 21 mandates robust security incident response capabilities. We explain how to write effective containment playbooks and validate them through tabletop simulations.

EU data residency: what ‘GDPR-native’ really means.

Every SaaS vendor claims GDPR compliance. This post breaks down what EU data residency means at the infrastructure layer — Cloudflare Workers EU regions, Fly Frankfurt, R2 EU jurisdiction — and the audit evidence each choice produces for ISO 27001 and DORA.

Why we publish our own pentest reports.

AssurePort publishes its own self-pentest findings in the changelog. Radical transparency on your own vulnerabilities builds more trust than a polished security page — and we explain the responsible-disclosure process we use to do it safely.

From CVE to fix: how AI agents close findings 6× faster.

When an AI pentest pipeline surfaces a CVE, the clock starts. This post traces the full path from finding to remediation — how AI agents generate language-specific fix code, verify the patch, and update the audit trail in under an hour.

Next Generation CISO Team — AI vCISO and the future of security ops.

The CISO role is changing. This post maps how AI-assisted security operations — continuous posture monitoring, automated evidence collection, risk scoring — augment lean security teams without replacing human judgement on strategic decisions.

A real BOLA — how a paywall bypass surfaced in 31 minutes.

Anonymised case study: an AI web pentest found a Broken Object-Level Authorisation paywall bypass via a /status endpoint in 31 minutes. Full curl proof-of-concept, three-line fix, and why pattern-matching scanners missed it for nine months.

GDPR for security SaaS — the 2026 reality check.

Seven concrete things every security-tooling vendor needs to get right in 2026: Article 30 RoPA, meaningful consent, Article 32 technical measures, DPA both ways, international transfer mechanisms, retention schedules, and the AI Act shadow over model training clauses.
