Aug 25, 2026 By Kovrr In Kovrr
The same quantification run supports two conversations that happen weeks apart. One with a board asking whether the organization is managing cyber risk sensibly.

State AI Laws Change Faster Than Compliance Programs

Aug 25, 2026 By Kovrr In Kovrr
Colorado passed the first comprehensive state AI law in May 2024, and organizations spent the following year building impact assessment processes against it. Those obligations never took effect.

Ask Why Before You Walk Away from a VMware Deal

Aug 25, 2026 By Mac McClenathan In 11:11 Systems
Here is a deal that almost died for the wrong reason. The customer said, “We need Hyper-V.” The partner logged it as a technical requirement, qualified the opportunity out of any VMware conversation, and moved on. Reasonable enough. That is what a stated requirement is supposed to mean. Except it was not technical. When someone finally asked why Hyper-V, the answer had nothing to do with the hypervisor.

Google Authenticator vs YubiKey: Which Authentication Method Is More Secure?

Aug 25, 2026 By Minal Purwar In miniOrange
Compare Google Authenticator and YubiKey to understand how each authentication method works, their security strengths, phishing resistance, deployment considerations, and which option is best for your organization. Passwords alone are no longer enough. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is now the baseline but not all MFA methods are equally secure. Two of the most commonly compared options are Google Authenticator, a free smartphone app, and YubiKey, a physical hardware security key.

Agentic AI Security: Credentials and Permissions Define the Blast Radius

Aug 25, 2026 By Katie DeMatteis In GitGuardian
In July 2026, researchers at Noma Labs coaxed GitHub's new Agentic Workflows into leaking data from a private repository. It wasn’t from malware. They created a plausible-looking issue in a public repository containing instructions for the agent to retrieve information from other repositories in the organization. After testing variations of the prompt, they found that adding one word, "Additionally," was enough to get past GitHub's guardrails.
