AI Governance Tools and the Audit Trail Problem

An AI governance platform demo shows you the present. Compliance posture at seventy-nine percent, four controls needing attention, a register of systems with owners attached. Every figure describes today, and the demo is persuasive precisely because today is legible. ‍ An audit asks a different question.

7 Things People Get Wrong About Quantifying Cyber Risk

Most explanations of financial cyber risk modeling cover what it is. The more useful material is what surprises people once they have a model in front of them, because several of the outputs run against intuition and get misread in predictable ways. ‍ Seven of those are worth knowing before the first results arrive. None requires a statistics background, and each one changes how a number should be read or reported. ‍

Tactics Techniques and Procedures TTP: A 2026 Guide

Tactics, techniques, and procedures are the behavioral language of an adversary: tactics explain why, techniques explain how, and procedures describe the specific implementation. MITRE created the first ATT&CK model in September 2013 and publicly released it in May 2015 with 96 techniques organized across 9 tactics. That origin matters because TTPs turn scattered security events into an operational model.

OpenTelemetry and AI Governance: Where the Standard Stops

OpenTelemetry graduated from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation in May 2026, which formally settled a question the industry had answered informally years earlier. It is the standard way applications emit telemetry, second only to Kubernetes in contributor volume, and native across every major observability backend. ‍ A security and governance company has a specific reason to care.

What an Open Control Weakness Costs You Every Month

Security programs price control work as an investment decision. What does the fix cost, what does it remove, does the return justify the spend. The framing answers whether to do something and says nothing about the cost of the interval before it gets done. ‍ An unimplemented control accrues expected loss for every month it stays unimplemented.

Application Layer Firewall: How It Works and Why It Matters

Your SOC dashboard shows a successful login from a normal user account. The connection uses HTTPS, the destination is an approved web server, and the network firewall allows it. Inside the request, however, an attacker has placed a SQL injection payload in a login parameter. Nothing is wrong with the perimeter firewall. It has been asked to answer a question it wasn't designed to answer.

SharePoint CVE-2026-55040 Actively Exploited: AI-Discovered RCE Chain

CVE-2026-55040, a critical SharePoint authentication bypass, is now being actively exploited. A proof-of-concept went public on August 11. Within 24 hours, threat intelligence firm Defused confirmed exploitation attempts against its SharePoint honeypots using that same PoC. Over 8,500 SharePoint servers remain reachable from the open internet, putting unpatched instances at immediate risk.
