In 2025, AI in cybersecurity is no longer optional—it’s a board-level expectation. CISOs aren’t being asked if they’re using AI; they’re being asked to show measurable outcomes: faster response, reduced noise, greater visibility, and ROI the board can trust. Security operations have become a boardroom priority.

We’re excited to announce the launch of our MCP server for end users, designed to boost engineering productivity while keeping security strong. Engineers often know exactly what they need to do—deploy to a new environment, spin up a workload, investigate logs—but not which permissions translate into those tasks. That leads to two common problems: The result is wasted time, frustrated teams, and an inflated attack surface from unnecessary standing privileges.

For many U.S. companies, the answer is yes—and not just those physically located in Connecticut. Like the CCPA in California or the CPA in Colorado, the Connecticut Data Privacy Act has an extraterritorial reach, meaning if your website, SaaS platform, or e-commerce business processes Connecticut residents’ personal data at scale, compliance is mandatory. The problem? CDPA compliance is rarely straightforward.

On September 8, 2025, the JavaScript ecosystem experienced what is now considered the largest supply chain attack in npm history. A sophisticated phishing campaign led to the compromise of a trusted maintainer’s account, resulting in the injection of cryptocurrency-stealing malware into 18+ foundational npm packages. These packages collectively accounted for over 2 billion weekly downloads, affecting millions of applications globally—from personal projects to enterprise-grade systems.

Since the floodgates opened in November 2022 (at the arrival of ChatGPT), there has been one question on everyone’s mind: Is AI going to take my job? While the answers range from yes to no to maybe, there are ways to ride the AI wave without being subsumed by it. The way skilled professionals will do that, especially within cybersecurity, all depends on how well they know the industry—and how well they understand the value of their place in it.

Whether you’re building global payout corridors or embedding stablecoin rails into treasury operations, stablecoin compliance is what turns innovation into scale. It’s the reason your banking partners stay comfortable, your regulators stay satisfied, and your operations keep running 24/7, across borders, without fail. The fastest-scaling firms aren’t treating KYC, the Travel Rule, and on-chain transaction monitoring as afterthoughts.

In today’s climate, where every company is a technology company, there is a simple truth many still overlook: CIOs and CISOs can no longer afford to see themselves primarily as technologists or risk gatekeepers. The mandate is clear: They must be business leaders first, using technology and cybersecurity expertise as powerful tools to drive growth, trust, and competitive advantage.

Insider threats come from people who already possess legitimate access—employees, contractors, partners. You cannot treat these risks like typical external attacks because insiders operate inside trust boundaries, with valid credentials and normal workflows. When you lack real-time, contextual detection, insider activity progresses quietly. You see isolated events—an odd file download, an unusual login from a different location—without the timeline that shows intent.

The software supply chain has once again come under fire, with npm — the world’s largest package ecosystem — at the center of one of the most significant compromises to date. Recent findings suggest that attackers successfully hijacked a maintainer account through phishing, injecting malicious code into popular open-source packages with billions of weekly downloads.
