On August 20, we detected two popular Rust crates from the same maintainer, append-only-vec (4M downloads) and arrayref (244M downloads), were compromised. The attacker added a malicious dependency on a package called proc-macro1, which downloads a remote payload during the build and executes it on the developer's machine.

KEEP helps organisations large and small to achieve both Cyber Essentials (CE) and Cyber Essentials Plus (CE+), alongside some of the more stringent standards such as SOC2, though for this insight we will focus on how to ‘pass’ CE+. As you may be aware IASME introduced the Danzell v3.3 standard in mid 2026, which included a number of critical changes that aimed to set the bar ‘higher’ for an organisation who applied for a CE+ assessment.

GHE.com introduces migration, identity, and integration changes.– Some GitHub data may still be processed outside the chosen region.– ta residency still needs a separate backup and recovery strategy. For many enterprises, GitHub is now one of the most important parts of the DevOps ecosystem, where teams manage repositories, pull requests, issues, workflows, GitHub Actions, security alerts, project data, and other metadata that keeps software delivery moving.

MSPs are maturing endpoint security with patching, vulnerability remediation, and antivirus protection. But one high-impact risk still slips through in many client environments: unmanaged peripheral devices. A single unauthorized USB drive can copy sensitive client data in minutes and introduce malware into otherwise protected systems. This is why we've launched Device Control in MSP Central—an MSP-ready solution capable of governing every device that touches your client endpoints.

Blame for all flaws belongs to the flawed human author. Historically, the bottleneck for finding security bugs in software was human bandwidth. As pointed out in this great post by Tom Ptacek, it appears that large language models are exceptionally good at finding them with simple prompting. This adds substantial bandwidth to the effort of finding bugs.

It's 11:40 am. A security questionnaire just hit your inbox. You open the file and quickly realize you can't finish this alone. Legal needs to review the data processing language. Product has to complete the architecture section. Security is the only team that can sign off on incident response. So you split up the questionnaire, Slack each department their section to answer, and wait... and wait... and wait.

AI security is entering a more demanding phase. The market is moving beyond who can add AI to a product and toward who can make it useful in the real world — across existing security environments, partner ecosystems, and day-to-day operations. CRN’s 2026 Annual Report Card offers a useful snapshot of that shift. In the AI Security category, Exabeam earned the top overall score at 90.6, leading all four subcategories and every one of the 21 individual evaluation criteria.

Six new security issues for every one issue remediated. That's the ratio Snyk research has found, and it's why the AI Security Engineers Community gave an hour of livestream time to fixing rather than finding.
