Weekly Brief: Threat Intelligence Edition | How AI Agents Help Security Teams Prioritize Risk

Jul 11, 2026 By SecurityScorecard In SecurityScorecard
In this week's SecurityScorecard Weekly Brief: Threat Intelligence Edition, Richard Hummel explains why third-party risk has become one of the biggest challenges facing security teams, and why humans alone can no longer keep pace. Attackers are moving faster than ever, exploiting vulnerabilities across complex vendor ecosystems long before traditional assessment cycles can react. As Richard notes, the question is no longer, "Am I secure?" It's "Are all of my vendors secure?".

Best Cybersecurity PR Agencies 2026

Jul 11, 2026 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
Most cybersecurity vendors underestimate PR until a crisis forces the issue. A vulnerability is disclosed in their product and the story spirals before a response is drafted. A competitor lands the Gartner Magic Quadrant quote while their own CEO stays invisible. A breach hits the news with no narrative ready. The instinct is to call a generalist agency, but the real problem runs deeper: cybersecurity PR is a specialized discipline that demands technical fluency, relationships inside security trade media, and crisis playbooks built for the unique pressures of the category.

How telcos can build a sovereign IaaS platform

Jul 10, 2026 By Acronis In Acronis
Telecommunications providers already play a central role in the cloud economy. They own the networks businesses use to reach cloud services. They operate data centers, regional points of presence, edge locations, support teams and enterprise client relationships. In many markets, they are also trusted local infrastructure providers for businesses, governments and critical services. For years, much of that infrastructure was used to connect clients to someone else’s cloud. That is starting to change.

Your Firewall Rules Are Drifting Right Now. You Just Can't See It

Jul 10, 2026 By Reach Security In Reach Security
Firewalls are the single most common source of misconfiguration-related breaches, yet they get changed a hundred times a week and audited once a quarter. This is the network security gap AI attackers exploit first. Endpoint gets the budget. Identity gets the roadmap. The firewall gets changed constantly and reviewed rarely. It is also the control most tied to breaches: 42% of security teams pinned a firewall misconfiguration to a breach or near miss last year, ahead of EDR at 40% and identity at 39%.

Self-hosted password vault: why security teams are taking the keys back

Jul 10, 2026 By Sascha Martens In Netwrix
A self-hosted password vault runs on infrastructure you control instead of a vendor's cloud, giving you direct custody of encryption keys, backups, and access logs. It trades vendor convenience for operational responsibility: you patch it, you back it up, and you decide who reaches it. For teams with data residency requirements, air-gapped environments, or a board that keeps asking where the credentials live, that trade is usually worth making.
