Threat actors are impersonating Palo Alto Networks recruiters to target job seekers, according to researchers with Palo Alto’s Unit 42 security team. “These attacks specifically target senior-level professionals by leveraging scraped LinkedIn data to craft highly personalized lures,” the researchers write.

Let’s catch up on the more interesting vulnerability disclosures and cyber security news gathered from articles across the web this week. This is what we have been reading about on our coffee break! Thankfully this common WP Plugin is well patched by now, but of course there will always be some who don’t enable auto-updates… But its better late than never for this one: Interesting, Rowhammer has migrated to the GPU.

On March 24, 2026, thousands of development pipelines ran a routine vulnerability scan. What they actually executed was a credential stealer.

Everyone is building sophisticated intelligence layers with improved models and smarter agents to automate threat detection, investigation, and response. It’s what is needed in order to mature into an AI SOC. However, the organizations seeing the most value from AI in their SOC are not focusing solely on the intelligence layer. They’re focusing on the data foundation first.

By: Mark Johnson, Manager, Knowledge Engineering You’ve heard it said: “The more things change, the more they stay the same.” Well, sometimes, everything changes and you don’t even notice! This just happened. The Securonix Documentation Portal changed completely, and everything looks the same! (Well, almost.) A few years ago, Securonix set out to modernize how customers interact with product documentation.

Anthropic's Claude Mythos has demonstrated that AI can be leveraged to identify vulnerabilities and develop exploits faster than ever. Here is what that means for how you defend.

Protecting websites from cyberattacks remains critical. One common type of attack is the Ping Flood, which is different from the historical ‘Ping of Death.’ This is when many ping requests are sent to a website's server at once, slowing it down or even crashing it. As web traffic and application complexity increase, exposure to denial-of-service attacks grows. This is why it's important to have strong defenses in place.

Enterprise AI adoption is no longer a future problem. The average organization uses 54 generative AI (genAI) applications, and endpoint AI agent adoption is accelerating, with Cyberhaven research tracking 276% growth in 2025. Security programs have struggled to keep pace with either trend. The AI security gap is technical, not philosophical. Most organizations have AI acceptable use policies.
