AI isn’t the future, it’s here. Your CEO’s talking about it in board meetings. Your manager wants to know if it'll save time or just add more work. And you? You're wondering if it's going to make your job easier or just add noise. The excitement is justified. McKinsey says nearly 80% of companies are using AI somewhere in their business.

CISA has just added a new CVE regarding SMB, with a very high CVSS rating. CVE-2025-33073 is a high-severity (CVSS 8.8) vulnerability in the Windows SMB client caused by improper access control (CWE-284). An authenticated attacker can exploit it over the network to gain elevated privileges. Microsoft has issued guidance on how it should be patched and CalCom recommend this be done immediately.

In some situations, even manual renewals were viable for longer lifespan certificates. That era is ending.
