AI is breaking traditional security models — Here’s where they fail first

Traditionally, enterprise security operating models operated a fixed and regular cycle: Findings surfaced through periodic scans, security teams triaged results and remediation followed through ticket-based workflows. It was almost an SOP of sorts; the accountability existed, but it was often implicit and fragmented. The remediation would travel across tools, teams and handoffs rather than designed…

Your security stack looks fine from the dashboard and that’s the problem

One in five enterprise endpoints is operating outside a protected and enforceable state on any given day, according to device telemetry collected across tens of millions of corporate PCs. That figure, drawn from Absolute Security’s 2026 Resilience Risk Index, has barely moved in a year, even as organizations continue to add security tools and increase…

How to Scale Phishing Detection in Your SOC: 3 Steps for CISOs

Phishing has quietly turned into one of the hardest enterprise threats to expose early.

Hackers can turn Grok, Copilot into covert command-and-control channels, researchers warn

Enterprise security teams racing to enable generative AI tools may be overlooking a new risk: attackers can abuse web-based AI assistants such as Grok and Microsoft Copilot to quietly relay malware communications through domains that are often exempt from deeper inspection. The technique, outlined by Check Point Research (CPR), exploits the web-browsing and URL-fetch capabilities…

Everyone uses open source, but patching still moves too slowly

Enterprise security teams rely on open source across infrastructure, development pipelines, and production applications, even when they do not track it as a separate category of technology.

With CISOs stretched thin, re-envisioning enterprise risk may be the only fix

A majority of enterprise security leaders view their roles as “no longer fully manageable,” according to a recent report, and security consultants concede that the increasingly over-scoped nature of cyber execs’ roles is a problem not easily fixed. At issue is the fact that companies have consistently broadened the CISO’s jurisdiction and responsibilities without providing…

Why 2025’s agentic AI boom is a CISO’s worst nightmare

By late 2025, the enterprise AI landscape had shifted. Standard RAG systems are failing at a rate of 80%, forcing a pivot to autonomous agents. But while “agentic RAG” solves the reliability problem, it introduces a terrifying new one: the autonomous execution of malicious instructions. If 2023 was the year of the chatbot and 2024…

Building an AI-powered defense-in-depth security architecture for serverless microservices

Enterprise customers face an unprecedented security landscape where sophisticated cyber threats use artificial intelligence to identify vulnerabilities, automate attacks, and evade detection at machine speed.
