With any security framework, be it ISO 27001, FedRAMP, or CMMC, the goal is not to secure “your business.” It’s to secure sensitive and controlled information that your business handles. This is a fundamentally important way of looking at your security. Why does this matter? It’s all about borders. Where do you draw the line between what you keep secure and what you don’t care about?

Your disaster recovery plan might look bulletproof on paper, but there’s only one way to know if it works: Test it. Failover testing validates whether your backup systems can actually handle the load when production goes down. Most IT teams find gaps during their first test, like misconfigured settings, outdated documentation, or dependencies that nobody remembered to document.

For years, data security has been divided into artificial categories. Data Loss Prevention (DLP) focused on enforcement. Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) focused on discovery. Insider risk management lived somewhere adjacent. And now, AI security has arrived as yet another bolt-on.

This advisory describes an ecosystem-level risk that emerges when AI agents are able to autonomously read and act on untrusted content while operating with user-level permissions in a web browser.

To counter sophisticated modern threats, LevelBlue is partnering with Fortra to integrate Fortra’s best-in-class solutions with LevelBlue’s elite managed services, delivering a comprehensive security offering. As part of this long-term partnership, LevelBlue will acquire the managed services of Fortra’s Alert Logic Managed Detection and Response (MDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and Web Application Firewall (WAF) solutions.

In the race to innovate, software has repeatedly reinvented how we define identity, trust, and access. In the 1990's, the web made every server a perimeter. In the 2010's, the cloud made every identity a workload. Here in 2026, agentic AI makes every action autonomous.

There are numerous ways of carrying out cyberattacks. Identity is now one of the most common ways attackers gain access to systems. Instead of malware or exploits, attackers rely on stolen credentials or reused passwords. They abuse permissions to carry out sophisticated attacks that appear normal on the surface. Basic monitoring tools cannot detect these attacks. Identity misuse is becoming more common. Many organizations now work across cloud services and remote access.
