Wireless security training programs lean heavily on generic network labs, with Wi-Fi appearing as a checkbox alongside Bluetooth, Zigbee, and cellular. Hands-on environments dedicated to IEEE 802.11 are uncommon, even as Wi-Fi remains the default on-ramp to corporate networks and a recurring entry point for attackers. A new paper from researchers at the Norwegian University…

Google to pay up to $1.5 million for zero-click Pixel Titan M exploits
Google has revised its Android and Chrome Vulnerability Reward Programs (VRPs), which pay security researchers to report vulnerabilities in Android, Google hardware, and the Chrome browser. The update raises top bounties to $1.5 million and adjusts rewards for lower-complexity reports. The program targets vulnerability classes that automated tools struggle to detect and prioritizes researcher-driven findings.…

Phishing-to-RMM Attacks: The Remote Access Blind Spot CISOs Can’t Ignore
CISOs are under pressure to prove that their security programs can detect threats early, reduce business risk, and support fast, confident response. But that becomes harder when attackers stop relying on obviously malicious tools. In recent phishing-to-RMM campaigns observed by ANY.RUN analysts, threat actors are using fake Microsoft, Adobe, and OneDrive pages to deliver legitimate…

Anthropic bets on EPSS for the coming bug surge
Anthropic’s Mythos has intensified a problem that vulnerability management programs were already struggling to contain: too many vulnerabilities and not enough clarity about which ones matter. What changes with Mythos — and the AI-based class of vulnerability discovery systems it represents — is the speed at which software flaws can be found and exploited. That…

LLM-generated passwords are indefensible. Your codebase may already prove it
Two independent research programs, one from AI security firm Irregular, one from Kaspersky, have now converged on the same conclusion: Every frontier LLM generates structurally predictable passwords that standard entropy meters catastrophically overrate. AI coding agents are autonomously embedding those credentials in production infrastructure, and conventional secret scanners have no mechanism to detect them. As…

How android work profiles reduce data leakage on BYOD devices
GUEST OPINION: Bring-your-own-device (BYOD) programs give employees the freedom to carry a single smartphone, but they also open the door to unintentional data spills. When business email, files, and chat histories intermingle with vacation photos and social apps, the boundary between corporate and personal information blurs.

Why access decisions are becoming the weakest link in identity security
In my nearly two decades leading identity and risk programs, I’ve learned a sobering truth that every CISO eventually confronts: hackers don’t hack in — they log in. We often obsess over the perimeter and the sophistication of technical exploits, but many of the most damaging security failures I’ve witnessed didn’t involve a zero-day or…

Sean Cairncross lays out what’s coming next for Trump’s cyber strategy
The Trump administration is plotting an interagency body to confront malign hackers, pilot programs to secure critical infrastructure across states and other steps tied to its freshly-released cyber strategy, National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross said Monday. The “interagency cell” will bring together agencies like the Justice Department, the Department of State, the FBI and the…

How AI Assistants are Moving the Security Goalposts
AI-based assistants or “agents” — autonomous programs that have access to the user’s computer, files, online services and can automate virtually any task — are growing in popularity with developers and IT workers. But as so many eyebrow-raising headlines over the past few weeks have shown, these powerful and assertive new tools are rapidly shifting…

AI went from assistant to autonomous actor and security never caught up
Enterprise AI deployments have shifted from pilot programs to production systems handling customer data, executing business transactions, and integrating with core infrastructure. That has exposed a significant gap between what AI agents can do and what security teams can observe or control. A briefing published by the AIUC-1 Consortium, developed with input from Stanford’s Trustworthy…

Airline brands become launchpads for phishing, crypto fraud
Airline brands sit at the center of peak travel booking cycles, loyalty programs, and high value transactions. Criminal groups continue to register thousands of lookalike domains tied to these brands, targeting travelers, employees, and business partners. Recent threat intelligence from BforeAI’s PreCrime Labs identifies sustained impersonation activity across the global commercial airline sector. Between September…

Identity Prioritization isn’t a Backlog Problem – It’s a Risk Math Problem
Most identity programs still prioritize work the way they prioritize IT tickets: by volume, loudness, or “what failed a control check.” That approach breaks the moment your environment stops being mostly-human and mostly-onboarded. In modern enterprises, identity risk is created by a compound of factors: control posture, hygiene, business context, and intent. Any one of…

Security teams are paying for sprawl in more ways than one
Most enterprises run security programs across sprawling environments that include mobile devices, SaaS applications, cloud infrastructure, and telecom networks. Spend control in these areas often sits outside the security organization, even when the operational consequences land directly on security teams. Tangoe’s 2026 Trends & Savings Recommendations Report connects these cost domains to recurring governance failures…
