Ransomware and vendor breaches persist. The “2026 Data Breach Investigations Report” (DBIR) highlights how evolving social engineering tactics make the sector more vulnerable.

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a new automated campaign called Megalodon that has pushed 5,718 malicious commits to 5,561 GitHub repositories within a six-hour window. “Using throwaway accounts and forged author identities (build-bot, auto-ci, ci-bot, pipeline-bot), the attacker injected GitHub Actions workflows containing base64-encoded bash payloads that exfiltrate CI

1 Introduction This article provides a technical analysis of how many Windows kernel mode drivers can be interacted with from user mode without the hardware they were developed for. This work was motivated by driver-oriented vulnerability research and the need to evaluate the exploitability of individual findings, which frequently affect code whose reachability is hardware-gated….

The U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) on Thursday announced the arrest of a Canadian man in connection with allegedly operating a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) botnet known as Kimwolf.

The advanced persistent threat group also relied on SOCKS proxies like SoftEther VPN, tunneling tools that act as a middleman between victim and attacker.

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) on Thursday added two security flaws impacting Langflow and Trend Micro Apex One to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, citing evidence of active exploitation. The vulnerabilities in question are listed below – CVE-2025-34291 (CVSS score: 9.4) – An origin validation error vulnerability in Langflow that could

Cisco has rolled out updates for a maximum-severity security flaw impacting Secure Workload that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to access sensitive data. Tracked as CVE-2026-20223 (CVSS score: 10.0), the vulnerability arises from insufficient validation and authentication when accessing REST API endpoints. “An attacker could exploit this vulnerability if they are able to send

Finding ways to document both component and execution attributes for AI bill of materials (AI BOM).

A security researcher discovered the API keys can still be used for 23 minutes after deletion, even though the cloud provider claims deletion is immediate.

AI agent projects are proliferating throughout the enterprise, and those AI agent identities require management, security, and governance. New Omdia research shows the AI agent identity budget dynamics are very different than traditional IAM projects.
