Banks, payment processors and fintechs have long relied on Know Your Customer (KYC) processes to verify identity and assess the risk of doing business with the customer during onboarding, and on Know Your Business (KYB) processes to validate business legitimacy. But today, that’s no longer enough.

In the first quarter of 2026, government-directed shutdowns figured prominently, with prolonged Internet blackouts in both Uganda and Iran, a stark contrast to the lack of observed government-directed shutdowns in the same quarter a year prior. This quarter, we also observed a number of Internet disruptions caused by power outages, including three separate collapses of Cuba's national electrical grid.

Your security team sees an MCP tool server throw an error. Your APM dashboard shows a latency spike. Your logs capture the JSON-RPC request with its method name and parameters. But none of that tells you whether the tool just read a harmless config file or dumped credentials to an external IP. Traditional observability tools—the APM platforms, the OpenTelemetry traces, the centralized logging pipelines—track performance across your Model Context Protocol deployments.

In August 2025, a vulnerability chain in NVIDIA Triton Inference Server was found that allowed an unauthenticated remote attacker to send a single crafted inference request, leak the name of an internal shared memory region, register that region for subsequent requests, gain read-write primitives into the Triton Python backend’s private memory, and achieve full remote code execution. The exploit chain ran entirely through Triton’s standard inference API. No anomalous traffic volume.

A platform team at a mid-size SaaS company runs three LangChain agents and one AutoGPT-derived planner on EKS. LangSmith is wired in. OpenTelemetry traces flow into their observability stack. Falco runs on every node. The setup is what most security teams would consider thorough. A pip dependency in one of the agents’ tool packages ships a malicious update.

This year marks a pivotal shift in global cybersecurity regulation. Mandatory cyber incident reporting is no longer a recommendation—it is a legal obligation. Across major jurisdictions, regulations such as the EU’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), the NIS2 Directive, and the U.S. Cyber Incident Reporting for Critical Infrastructure Act (CIRCIA) are introducing strict reporting timelines, expanded scope, and significant penalties for non-compliance.

Behavior Intelligence is a security operations model that detects risk by analyzing behavior, automates investigation and response using AI, and measures whether security outcomes are improving over time. It focuses on how users, systems, and AI agents operate rather than relying only on predefined rules or knowns indicators of compromise. This shift matters because modern attacks rarely look malicious at first. They look normal.

Sharing files between computers and users helps communicate and exchange data more efficiently and conveniently. You can share files over the network in different ways, for example, using SMB or NFS protocol on servers and computers. NAS (network-attached storage) devices are also used to share files via SMB and NFS. Read the NFS vs SMB comparison to understand what to use in your case and which protocol to choose.

Bail bond scams are getting smarter with AI. Here's how to spot them before they cost you thousands. A call saying someone you love has been arrested and needs money ASAP can feel so real that you act before you think. Learn how bail bond scams work and what to watch for to help protect you and your family from falling for the scheme. Getting a call about bail isn’t something most people prepare for, and that’s exactly what scammers count on.

Cybersecurity is not just a technical function. It is a business issue that affects revenue, operations, customer trust, brand reputation, and long-term growth.
