The Coming Regulatory Wave for AI Agents & Their APIs

Feb 24, 2026 By Eric Schwake In Salt Security
For the past two years, the adoption of Generative AI has felt like a gold rush. Organizations raced to integrate Large Language Models and build autonomous agents to assist employees. They often bypassed standard governance processes in the name of speed and innovation. That era of unrestricted experimentation is rapidly drawing to a close. A massive regulatory wave is forming worldwide. Frameworks like the EU AI Act and the new ISO/IEC 42001 standard are forcing a corporate reckoning.

Cloud Security for Financial Services: Building a Compliant AWS Environment

Feb 24, 2026 By Mark Mazza In Opti9
Financial services organizations moving to AWS often discover that retrofitting security and compliance controls costs three to five times more than building them in from the start. Compliance gaps discovered during audits can delay critical initiatives, trigger regulatory scrutiny, and expose organizations to unnecessary risk.

Fake Video Meeting Invites Trick Users Into Installing RMM Tools

Feb 24, 2026 By KnowBe4 Team In KnowBe4
Threat actors are using phony meeting invites for Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and other video conferencing applications to trick users into installing remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools, according to researchers at Netskope. The invites lead to convincingly spoofed landing pages for fake video meetings, complete with a list of coworkers who have supposedly already joined the call. The page instructs the user to install a software update in order to join the video meeting.

The Rise of the AI Security Engineer: A New Discipline for an AI-Native World

Feb 24, 2026 By Manoj Nair In Snyk
We are witnessing the birth of a new profession in the blend of security engineering and security operations, a discipline that didn't exist five years ago because the systems it protects didn't exist five years ago. As artificial intelligence moves from experimental to essential and agentic systems begin to perceive, reason, act, and learn autonomously, we need defenders who can operate at the same velocity. I'm talking about the AI Security Engineer.

Introducing the AIDA Orchestration Agent: Always-On Human Risk Management Has Arrived

Feb 24, 2026 By KnowBe4 Team In KnowBe4
Social engineering remains the most reliable way into an organization—and attackers are getting better at it every day. According to the 2025 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, up to 68% of breaches involve social engineering. AI has only widened the gap. More than 95% of cybersecurity professionals say AI-generated phishing is harder to detect, and Microsoft reports that AI-generated phishing emails are 4.5x more successful than manually created ones.

Introducing Forescout VistaroAI | The First SkillsBased Agentic AI for Cybersecurity

Feb 24, 2026 By Forescout Technologies In Forescout
Meet Forescout VistaroAI, the first skills‑based agentic AI for cybersecurity. Forescout VistaroAI I thinks like a security expert, not a chatbot. It uses cybersecurity‑specific, preprogrammed skills to analyze anomalies, interpret posture changes, and automatically highlight affected assets. It eliminates the need for prompt engineering, providing role-based automation with human-in-the-loop control. The result is faster, more accurate decisions, and clearer starting points for real investigations.

Protecting Against Prompt Injection at the Data Layer, Not the Prompt Layer

Feb 24, 2026 By Anwita In Protecto
Most teams try to fix prompt injection in the prompt itself. They add guardrails. They rewrite system messages. They stack more instructions on top of instructions. It feels productive. It is also fragile. Prompt injection is not just a prompt problem. It is a data problem. And if you treat it like a wording problem instead of a data control problem, you will keep playing defense. Let’s unpack why.
