Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Security organizations are expected to keep pace with a growing set of regulatory and industry requirements as their cloud environments grow. Yet maintaining compliance in modern, fast-moving infrastructure is increasingly difficult. Cloud resources change by the minute, teams adopt new services without centralized oversight, and evidence needed for audits is often scattered across tools and providers.

Today, we’re excited to launch two practical tools to help teams quickly understand their AI maturity, quantify AI risk, and gather the evidence executives will ask for in 2026: an interactive AI Security Maturity Survey (with a personalized score and mapped recommendations) and a companion AI Security Compliance Checklist. Both are aligned to industry standards and built to be immediately useful in discovery, audits, and planning.

As businesses continue to adopt new technologies and expand their digital ecosystem, about 72% of organizations report that overall security risks have never been higher. Access-related vulnerabilities, in particular, have emerged as one of the top cybersecurity concerns, since every new tool or system introduces additional access points, users, and permissions to manage.

‍Artificial intelligence (AI) systems and generative AI (GenAI) tools have already been embedded across enterprise operations in a myriad of ways that trigger compliance obligations, both in terms of AI-specific regulations and other reporting mandates. In many cases, this adoption is occurring informally, through employee-driven tools or AI features embedded within third-party platforms, without centralized visibility or approval.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a European Union (EU) regulation that governs the handling of personal data belonging to individuals in the European Economic Area (EEA). It is considered one of the strictest data privacy regulations globally. ‍ If your organization processes the personal data of EU/EEA residents, complying with the GDPR is mandatory.

Earlier, the anatomy of a HIPAA breach felt tangible. The threat landscape was shaped by risks you could point to, such as physical theft, phishing, or simple human error. Now, some of the biggest risks live in your website and run quietly in the background. Third-party scripts, tracking pixels, and analytics tags can collect or transmit PHI to external parties while looking like routine marketing infrastructure.

When you think about an IRS publication, you’re probably thinking about the complex forms you need to fill out, usually relating to taxes. That’s not all the IRS publishes, though, and one of the more important documents they maintain is called Publication 1075. When it comes to sensitive information for everyday Americans and private sector businesses, there’s very little more important and more sensitive than tax information.
