Windows named pipes provide fast interprocess communication, but weak access controls can expose privileged services to untrusted processes. ThreatLocker explains how endpoint verification, command authorization, strict input validation, and narrowly scoped privileges can help secure named-pipe communication. [...]

Using the same email, phone number, payment method, and other identifiers makes it easier for data brokers and attackers to profile your activity. Anonyome Labs explains how separate digital personas can reduce correlation and limit the impact of breaches, spam, and identity theft. [...]

AI is making phishing attacks more personalized, convincing, and difficult for traditional email filters to detect. Kaseya explains how MSPs can monitor identity, email, and endpoint activity to detect and contain attacks that make it past the inbox. [...]

Huntress observed a 155x increase in password spraying attacks in H1 2026, including a campaign that generated more than 81 million login attempts in two weeks. The attacks exploited legacy authentication and gaps in MFA policies that left some login flows unprotected. [...]

Security controls can block a familiar attack method while missing quieter ways to achieve the same objective. Picus Security's Blue Report 2026 shows how prevention rates can vary dramatically by technique and why behavioral testing is needed to uncover those gaps. [...]

CVE-2026-54121 lets a standard domain user turn your Enterprise CA into a Domain Controller. The patch is the easy part. The lesson is standing privilege, implicit trust, and treating PKI as the Tier 0 identity infrastructure it has always been. [...]

Google Workspace attacks do not always begin with phishing. Stolen OAuth tokens can provide another path into Gmail, Drive, and connected systems. Material Security explains why organizations need defenses that cover the entire Workspace attack chain. [...]

AI coding tools can introduce unvetted or hallucinated open source dependencies faster than traditional security reviews can keep pace. ActiveState explains why organizations should govern packages at the point of selection, before they enter the development pipeline. [...]

Fake remote workers can exploit gaps between hiring checks, device delivery, and account access to enter organizations under false identities. Specops Software explains how document verification and biometric liveness checks can help organizations confirm that the person receiving access is the legitimate new hire. [...]

AI agents can improvise beyond the intended scope of a task when they are given broad access to enterprise systems and data. Token Security explains why organizations need to define agent intent and continuously enforce permissions around what each agent was actually created to do. [...]

AI is making phishing, credential theft, and social engineering faster and more efficient, while traditional trust signals such as passwords, MFA, IP reputation, and geolocation become easier to bypass. Specops explains why organizations are increasingly adding device trust to their Zero Trust strategies. [...]

Gen's H1 2026 Threat Report examines two separate attack chains. One used compromised business inboxes and browser manipulation in a banking-malware campaign, while the other used clipboard hijacking to redirect cryptocurrency payments. [...]

AI did not create a new browser security problem. It exposed one that enterprises have long been able to ignore. Skyhigh Security explains why browsers have become a critical control point for governing data movement, AI interactions, and modern work. [...]

AI is helping attackers create disposable phishing infrastructure and rapidly evolving toolkits that blocklists cannot track fast enough. Push Security explains why browser-level, technique-based detection offers a more durable defense than relying on domains, signatures, and other known-bad indicators. [...]

AI agents need broad access to be useful, but traditional access controls cannot determine whether an action aligns with a user's intent. Varonis explains how Agent IBAC detects intent drift and enforces real-time guardrails to keep agents within their intended boundaries. [...]

Flare researchers analyzed thousands of underground posts to examine how the BTMOB Android malware operation evolved into a fragmented ecosystem of resellers, source-code vendors, custom versions, and competing sales channels. [...]

Attackers are adapting established techniques to AI platforms, emerging technologies, and changing user behavior. ESET's new threat report examines the rise of malicious AI skills, AI-assisted malware, ClickFix attacks, record quishing activity, and ransomware tools designed to disable security software. [...]

Attackers rarely stop after gaining initial access. Huntress analyzes a real-world intrusion to show how threat actors establish persistence, disable defenses, and reshape compromised systems, and why defenders must investigate the original entry point rather than simply remove the malware. [...]

AI agents are designed to improvise as they complete tasks, making broad permissions a growing security risk. Token Security explains why identity, intent-based access controls, and least privilege are becoming the foundation for securing agentic AI. [...]
