Security's Next Turning Point Is the Workforce

Jan 20, 2026 By Ashley Rose, Co-founder & CEO of Living Security In SecuritySenses
Cybersecurity is entering a turning point. It has less to do with new tools than a new reality: the workforce has changed.

Jan 19, 2026 By Mackenzie Jackson In Aikido
Open source is one of the best things to ever happen to software development. It is also one of the easiest ways to accidentally ship legal obligations you did not sign up for.

2026 Study from Panorays: 85% of CISOs Can't See Third-Party Threats Amid Increasing Supply Chain Attacks

Jan 14, 2026 By Panorays
Panorays, a leading provider of third-party security risk management software, has released the 2026 edition of its annual CISO Survey for Third-Party Cyber Risk Management.
