Hexnode Moves into Endpoint Security With Hexnode XDR

OpenAI has launched Daybreak, a new cybersecurity initiative that brings together frontier artificial intelligence (AI) model capabilities and Codex Security to help organizations identify and patch vulnerabilities before attackers find a way in using the same issues. “Daybreak combines the intelligence of OpenAI models, the extensibility of Codex as an agentic harness, and our partners…

Companies pursing internal AI development using models from Hugging Face and other open source repositories need to focus on supply chain security and checking for vulnerabilities.

“‘Shift left’ is a very trendy concept over the past few years [in application security]. The weird thing is, prevention is seen as something that’s kind of old school in endpoint security or security operations.”

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of two security vulnerabilities impacting Supermicro Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) firmware that could potentially allow attackers to bypass crucial verification steps and update the system with a specially crafted image. The medium-severity vulnerabilities, both of which stem from improper verification of a cryptographic signature, are

Developers maintaining the images made the “intentional choice” to leave the artifacts available as “a historical curiosity,” given the improbability they’d be exploited.

Microsoft has warned that using pre-made templates, such as out-of-the-box Helm charts, during Kubernetes deployments could open the door to misconfigurations and leak valuable data. “While these ‘plug-and-play’ options greatly simplify the setup process, they often prioritize ease of use over security,” Michael Katchinskiy and Yossi Weizman from the Microsoft Defender for Cloud Research team
