In this week’s Weekly Brief: The Driftnet Edition, Brandon Torio explains why SecurityScorecard’s acquisition of Driftnet is transforming internet exposure visibility, and how new research uncovered hidden pathways between internet-connected security cameras and critical infrastructure systems in a small U.S. municipality. “That's the kind of security that really matters, the link between cybersecurity and our physical lives.”

Phishing is evolving, not disappearing. Allison Wikoff explains why the human element remains the most consistent target for threat actors. Watch the full video on our channel.

Secure your Agentic Action Layer and see where your Databricks MCP servers are communicating with detailed descriptions of what they do.

Check Point Agentic Exposure Validation (AEV) uses AI agents to reason like an attacker across your external footprint. It correlates your assets with live threat intelligence, exploit research, and attacker behavior, and tells you, in minutes, what's actually exploitable and what isn't. No assumptions. No noise. Evidence-backed findings your team can act on immediately.

Lateral movement is the top AI threat. MCP protocol allows agents to communicate freely via HTTPS, posing major risks for unsecured environments. Network segmentation is crucial to control inter-agent communication and prevent data exfiltration.

Watch the Spring 2026 lookback video to see how the team at Tines is working hard to enhance the way you scale your intelligent workflows through AI and automation.

Threat actors used to need days or weeks to exploit a vulnerability. Now AI lets them do it in seconds. Most security teams are already buried. Too many tools, too many alerts, manual processes that can't keep pace, and break-glass changes that get made and forgotten. Keeping everything configured and optimized correctly is a full-time job on its own. Nancy Phillips, Chief Information Security Officer at Ensemble Health Partners: "I want my teams doing the innovative stuff. Not the mundane, repeatable stuff.".

There are two types of companies: those who have been compromised and those who will be. Mid and small businesses are walking into this reality without understanding what AI has changed. On The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, David Chernitzky, CEO and co-founder of Armour Cybersecurity, explains why the gap between how large organizations understand AI-driven threats and how smaller ones do is widening fast.
