Frontier AI is poised to change cybersecurity faster than most organizations can adapt. It’s accelerating vulnerability discovery, which puts new pressure on security teams to handle more vulnerabilities, in less time, with workflows built for much slower technology. The primary challenge of the frontier AI era is not the increase in vulnerabilities. It’s understanding which exposures are most critical and how to address them before adversaries target them.

Since the announcement of the Atlassian Data Center end-of-life, organizations have started planning their migration to the cloud. However, it’s not a simple copy-and-paste job. Over time, your Jira and Confluence instances accumulate years of attachments. These might include screenshots, log files, ZIP files, duplicate uploads, and other items nobody remembers uploading. You might not even realize these files exist until migration begins and the bloat starts causing delays.

Oracle has disclosed CVE-2026-35273, a critical vulnerability in PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools that has already been exploited by threat actors.
