Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Security teams are at a critical inflection point. AI-enabled adversaries now operate at machine speed, automating phases of the kill chain and scaling attacks faster than human-only workflows can respond. Yet most SOCs still depend on manual triage and investigation processes that cannot keep pace.

Organizations across finance, healthcare, retail, and especially AI-driven sectors are facing increasing pressure from global regulators. The rapid expansion of AI, the growth of cross-border data flows, and the rise of new privacy frameworks all contribute to a landscape that demands more structure and accountability. In this environment, regulatory compliance and data tokenization are becoming inseparable.

A recent Dark Reading article highlighted a sobering shift in how nation-state threat actors are gaining access to critical infrastructure. According to reporting on a new Amazon Threat Intelligence disclosure, Russian actors affiliated with the GRU have spent years refining a campaign that increasingly bypasses traditional vulnerability exploitation altogether. Instead, they are walking straight through the front door left open by misconfigured network edge devices.

Large data breaches rarely begin with dramatic system failures. More often, they start with sustained, unauthorized access to sensitive data that goes undetected for months. The recent breach at Coupang, South Korea’s largest e-commerce platform, illustrates this pattern clearly. Nearly 34 million customer records were likely exposed over an extended period before detection.

2025 exposed a shift that had been forming for years. Security operations were not slowed by limited visibility or weak tooling. They were slowed because the effort required to interpret growing volumes of data increased faster than staffing, budgets, or governance frameworks could support. Alert queues expanded, dashboards multiplied, cloud bills shaped retention choices, and AI arrived before most organizations had clear policies to supervise it. It was not a talent problem.

Internxt is proud to announce that we have successfully achieved SOC 2 compliance, emphasising our continued dedication to security and privacy. By achieving this milestone, SOC 2 certifies that Internxt meets the needs of users regarding the controls of Internxt relevant to security, availability, and processing integrity of users’ data and the confidentiality of this information.

Developers are moving faster than ever with AI. Cursor is redefining how software gets built, and 1Password is redefining how teams secure access to SaaS and AI. Today, we are announcing a new integration that brings these two worlds together in a way that keeps development speed high and credential risk near zero.

WordPress. We love it. We know not everyone feels the same way. There are obvious reasons, one of which is the regular news (though not as regular as it used to be) of a plugin containing a vulnerability. Needless to say, that kind of news sucks. You have to admit though that WordPress has come a long way to make such things less sucky with an impactful auto update process. Unfortunately, the only kind of update which is beyond WordPress’s sphere is the back end, i.e. the AMP stack.

React2Shell is a severe remote, unauthenticated RCE vulnerability recently uncovered in React Server Components (RSC) and the Next.js App Router — tracked as CVE-2025-55182, with CVE-2025-66478 later merged as a duplicate — that allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on servers by exploiting insecure Flight protocol deserialization (CWE-502), earning the flaw a maximum CVSS score of 10.0.

Lefteris Tzelepis, CISO at Steelmet /Viohalco Companies, was shaped by cybersecurity. From his early exposure to real-world attacks at the Greek Ministry of Defense to building and leading security programs inside complex enterprises, his career mirrors the evolution of the CISO role itself. Now a group CISO overseeing security across multiple organizations, Lefteris brings a practitioner’s mindset to leadership and incident response.
