AI agents now write code, fix bugs, and ship to production. But in order to do useful work, agents require credentials. At 1Password, one of our core AI security principles is that raw credentials should never be directly exposed to LLMs, but all too often, that’s exactly what happens: most teams sacrifice security for speed and hand agents secrets in plaintext.

Information Technology (IT) security is the practice of protecting an organization’s systems, data and networks from unauthorized access and cyber threats. It encompasses a wide range of processes, policies and technologies designed to secure everything from employee devices to cloud infrastructure.

How a low-privileged account turns an XML configuration upload into arbitrary file read, user impersonation, and remote code execution — and how to detect and stop it. Published 16 June 2026 · Fact-checked against the official project advisory and government vulnerability databases.

The NIS2 Directive is the European Union’s updated cybersecurity framework, designed to improve cyber resilience across critical sectors. Building on its predecessor, the Network and Information Systems (NIS) Directive, NIS2 significantly expands its scope to include industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, energy, transport and managed services. NIS2 also introduces stricter cybersecurity requirements, direct accountability for senior management and defined incident reporting timelines.

Corelight Sensor v29.1 and Fleet Manager v29.1.1 fundamentally expand what a Corelight Sensor delivers. The release turns existing network evidence into a shared source of truth for SecOps, NetOps, triage, and forensic investigation. Network performance monitoring and asset classification unlock new value from traffic you're already collecting.

Most security vendors hide their documentation behind a login. Some don’t write it at all. You get a sales page, a demo, and a request to install an agent on your servers, and you’re expected to trust that the thing does what the marketing says. That’s backwards. So we wrote the docs, and we put all of them at certkit.io/docs. No login, no account gate, no “contact us for details.” You can read every page before you create an account.

Agentic AI security protects autonomous AI systems that independently plan, reason, and execute multi-step actions across enterprise environments without continuous human oversight.

Article 32 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) does not specify which tools to use, however it requires organizations to implement "appropriate technical and organisational measures" to protect personal data, proportionate to the risk. What that standard’s vague wording demands in practice is where most compliance programs run into trouble.
