The surge in security vulnerabilities stems primarily from organizations’ increasing adoption of agentic AI applications, particularly those utilizing technologies such as Model Context Protocol (MCP).  This rapid deployment, combined with immature security practices and emerging attack vectors, is creating substantial risk exposure across the enterprise landscape.[1]

Senior Director Analyst at Gartner, Aaron Lord, explained that MCP's design philosophy prioritizes interoperability, ease of use,

A recent report from our friends at the cybersecurity firm SentinelOne has detailed an unprecedented incident in which Anthropic's Claude Code, operating with unrestricted system permissions, attempted to execute a Trojan software package.   The malicious activity was detected and neutralized by SentinelOne’s behavioral artificial intelligence (AI) endpoint detection and response (EDR) system in under 44 seconds, preventing a potential supply chain compromise.  The event highlights a new dimensi

Across boardrooms and IT departments, a dangerous assumption continues to grow because data resides in Microsoft 365 and Azure it is automatically secure.  This belief is fundamentally flawed and creates a false sense of protection that masks real exposure, turning what should be a strategic cloud advantage into a ticking time bomb quietly building risk inside the organization’s own environment.[1]

Microsoft builds the platform; it does not defend your specific environment.  What you monitor, ho

Hacking Moltbook: The AI Social Network Any Human Can Control - Moltbook, the weirdly futuristic social network, has quickly gone viral as a forum where AI agents post and chat.  But what researchers discovered tells a different story and provides a fascinating look into what happens when applications are vibe-coded into existence without proper security controls.

Analysts at Wiz Research identified a misconfigured Supabase database belonging to Moltbook, allowing full read and write access to a

As the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics approach, cybersecurity researchers and industry experts warn that the Games will once again serve as a high-value convergence point for cybercrime, espionage, and politically motivated disruption.  According to Palo Alto Networks' Unit 42, nation-state actors, cybercriminal groups, and hacktivists are expected to target Olympic-related infrastructure not only for short-term impact but also for long-term access, intelligence collection, and global visib

Artificial intelligence has become the most disruptive technology in cybersecurity.  It is transforming how defenders detect threats, how attackers build new tools, and how organizations must redesign their entire security strategy.  In 2025, AI is no longer an enhancement to security systems. It has become the core engine behind both cyber defense and cyber offense.  This shift brings opportunities, challenges, and new responsibilities for every security leader.[1]

AI is revolutionizing how def

The  Fortinet team recently investigated a cluster of virtual private servers (VPS) used for Monero mining.  The identified samples are associated with prior H2miner campaigns that researchers documented in 2020 and have since been updated with new configurations.  H2Miner is a Crypto mining botnet that has been active since late 2019.

Analysts also identified a new variant of the Lcryx ransomware, called Lcrypt0rx. Lcryx is a relatively new VBScript-based ransomware strain first observed in Nov
