Selling to Regulated Customers: 5 Requirements You Need to Know and Prove
So you’ve got a groundbreaking product that has outstanding market fit. Your prospects love it and are raring to buy. Amazing. But before they can hit approve on the order, they need to make sure you’re SOC 2 or ISO 27001 compliant because their compliance officer won’t let them work with any vendor that hasn’t passed their audit. This is the joy of selling to regulated customers — which today, let’s be honest, is almost everyone.
Your Most Dangerous User Is Not Human: How AI Agents and MCP Servers Broke the Internal API Walled Garden
Last month, Microsoft quietly confirmed something that should keep every CISO up at night. As first reported by BleepingComputer and later detailed by TechCrunch, a bug in Microsoft Office allowed Copilot, the AI assistant embedded in millions of enterprise environments, to summarize confidential emails and hand them to users who had no business seeing them. Sensitivity labels? Ignored. Data loss prevention (DLP) policies? Bypassed entirely. This wasn't the work of a hacker or malware.

Payment App Tips
Before you hit “send” on Zelle, Venmo, or CashApp — pause. Most peer-to-peer payment apps work like digital cash. Once the money is sent, it’s often gone for good. No undo button. No guaranteed fraud protection. Don’t let a quick payment turn into a permanent loss.
