Microsoft says its FORGE Lab helped identify Windows vulnerabilities assigned 140 CVEs and submitted 155 validated reports across 23 open-source projects. The team emphasizes scaling validation and remediation alongside AI-assisted discovery.
The article says agentic pentesting can prove exploitability and chained attack paths, but its weeks-long runs and limited safe coverage leave gaps. It recommends pairing it with exploitability and security-control validation in a shared findings model.
ASOS confirmed an unauthorized customer notification and said basic personal information may have been accessed. Attackers’ claims remain unverified; Snowflake said it had found no compromise of its platform at that point.
A practical guide to security awareness programs recommends ongoing, role-based training, realistic phishing simulations, frequent reinforcement, easy reporting, and using program results and incident lessons to improve employee security habits.
Picus outlines how its breach-and-attack simulation, penetration testing, exposure validation, and workflow tools can help electricity-sector entities test controls, prioritize remediation, and document evidence for NERC CIP compliance.
Aikido says its security platform can generate SOC 2 evidence through continuous scanning, remediation tracking, access checks and CI/CD gates. The article contrasts Type 1 snapshot evidence with Type 2 evidence collected across an audit period.
The article argues that CRA compliance claims must be checked against shipped software, not paperwork alone, and recommends artifact-level evidence reports to identify gaps and support reporting and remediation.
An Australian-led advisory warns about crypters used to evade endpoint detection. Zimperium explains that similar obfuscation techniques affect Android malware and argues for combining signature, behavioral, and AI-based detection.
AWS explains how to integrate SPIRE with managed services for SVID signing, datastore availability, certificate authority functions, trust-bundle distribution, serverless SVID storage, and fine-grained authorization.
AWS describes a Bedrock AgentCore pattern that carries users’ identity tokens in HTTP headers to Lambda, where server-side token exchange lets Lake Formation authorize Athena queries as the user while CloudTrail records the human identity; the token stays outside the AI
Microsoft says AI-driven vulnerability discovery will increase patch volumes and urges CISOs to prioritize critical fixes, use scanning harnesses, and strengthen defense in depth.
The article explains how GDPR may apply to U.S.-based investigators handling EU or UK breach data, and recommends documenting a lawful basis, screening sensitive data, minimizing retention, and clarifying controller roles.
U.S. Bank CISO Ann Barron-DiCamillo discusses the expanding security role, the need for cross-functional partnerships, risk-reducing investment, timely incident reporting, and stronger threat intelligence sharing among banks.
Sekoia argues that AI could let attackers automate and accelerate intrusions, requiring defenses that reason and act quickly while remaining transparent, auditable, governed by people, and under organizations’ control.
A roundup of cybersecurity openings worldwide covers IAM, network defense, incident response, security architecture, product security, governance, and cloud and AI security.
A practical guide to creating an MDM policy, covering device scope and ownership, enrollment, access, encryption, updates, monitoring, remote actions, enforcement, and regular review.
The article proposes three questions for AI governance: how to detect agents acting against policy, identify every agent and its accountable owner, and preserve trustworthy records. It advocates correlating kernel-level activity with agent-level context for monitoring,|
An overview of commercial spyware describes how tools infect mobile devices, steal data, and evade detection, with examples including Crocodilus and Landfall. It also outlines warning signs and steps organizations can take to reduce risk.
The article explains SMB1001’s five-tier cybersecurity certification for small businesses and maps how Huntress services can support some controls, while stressing that certification is awarded independently.
An op-ed argues that attacks on water systems in 12 states exposed major security gaps and calls for federal support, zero-trust architecture, safer software, and AI-enabled defenses for utilities.
Effective exposure management combines asset context, exploitability testing, measured control effectiveness, validated attack paths, and remediation revalidation to prioritize risk and prove that it has been reduced.
As software development and AI-agent use accelerate, credentials spread across repositories, collaboration tools, and developer devices. The article argues that teams need broad discovery and context to understand exposure and prioritize remediation.
A penetration test found a financial-services onboarding app could issue or restore applicant access tokens based on possession of a GUID, highlighting the need for human-defined trust rules, threat modeling, and negative testing.
The article recommends continuously discovering sensitive data, minimizing unnecessary access, governing human and non-human identities, and monitoring data-layer activity to limit exposure if an identity or AI agent is compromised.
