In case you missed it last week, Internet Archive experienced another cyberattack. Here's what Keyfactor CSO Chris Hickman had to say about it in a Mashable article: "This is a security oversight as tokens that are not rotated regularly have longer lifespans, increasing the window of opportunity for attackers to steal and misuse them. If a malicious actor obtains an unrotated token, they could use it to gain unauthorized access to systems or services." Check systems regularly to ensure security posture and prevent breaches!
