Innovation at Speed: Why Machine Identity Security Is Now a Boardroom Priority

Innovation at Speed: Why Machine Identity Security Is Now a Boardroom Priority

Feb 3, 2026 By Dave McGrail, Head of Business Consultancy In Xalient
CEOs across the manufacturing sector remain optimistic about the potential of digital transformation to boost productivity, efficiency, and competitiveness. Yes - manufacturers face a double bind - innovate fast (and potentially feel pain) or risk falling behind; but every step forward expands the attack surface. This sits alongside a stark reality: the manufacturing sector now suffers 26% of all cyberattacks, making it one of the most targeted industries globally. However, the most significant emerging threat is not always the one that leaders expect.

DevSecOps Tools for Continuous Security Integration

Feb 3, 2026 By Natalie Tischler In Veracode
If you’re an engineering manager in 2026, it’s almost certain you’re already exploring DevSecOps tools… by necessity as much as by choice. The reasons are clear: security is no longer a side concern or a tick-box for regulated industries. Even non-regulated businesses now face rigorous customer security questionnaires, growing SOC 2 and supply chain requirements, and persistent threats (especially related to AI-generated code) that make security non-negotiable.

Cybercrime's New Goal: It's Not Your Data, It's Your Time

Feb 3, 2026 By Razorthorn Security In Razorthorn
The economic model of cybercrime is shifting from stealing data to creating time drag on the systems that keep the business running. Loud ransomware taught everyone to expect clear incidents, but quieter attacks now focus on prolonged disruption, where boards pay to restore growth and confidence without ever declaring a cyber event.

AI agents are forcing a reckoning with identity and control

Feb 3, 2026 By Ariel Pisetzky In CyberArk
Most organizations never planned for AI to start making real decisions. They started with simple helpers. An agent answered basic questions or generated small automations so teams could avoid opening another IT ticket. It felt harmless. But as these agents become more capable and more autonomous, they begin operating across systems at machine speed. They connect tools, provision access, and trigger chained actions long after the original request.

The AI Blind Spot Debt: The Hidden Cost Killing Your Innovation Strategy

Feb 3, 2026 By Ohad Shalev In JFrog
In today’s AI rush, I’ve seen even the most disciplined organizations find it almost impossible to apply the hard-won lessons of DevOps and DevSecOps onto AI adoption. These organizations often feel forced to choose between moving fast and staying in control. As a result, they develop a “wait and see” approach to AI usage and implementation, and it’s creating a new, more dangerous form of technical debt. I call it the AI Blind Spot Debt.
