The Easiest Security Add of 2026 Is Also the Most Urgent

For years, cybersecurity conversations have focused on endpoints, networks, and email. Meanwhile, attackers have quietly shifted their attention elsewhere. Today, many breaches begin in the cloud. Compromised Microsoft 365 accounts. Misconfigured SaaS applications. Third-party integrations with excessive permissions. Employees are adopting AI tools without IT approval. These aren't edge cases anymore; they're becoming everyday realities for managed service providers (MSPs).

20,000 Instagram accounts hacked with AI tool abuse

A bug in Meta's AI-powered account recovery tool compromised 20,000 Instagram accounts. In this week's Intel Chat, Chris and Matt discuss how the flaw allowed attackers to bypass email verification. Meta patched the tool after discovering the abuse on May 31st. Matt's takeaway: tools given broad API access become attractive targets. Meta should have caught this in basic testing, yet it took an adversary to expose the weakness.

The Claude Fable Saga - The 443 Podcast - Episode 375

This week on the podcast, we unpack the Claude Fable 5 release and subsequent revocation following an export control directive from the US federal government. After that, we cover the recent FortiBleed credential dump, discussing its likely origins, before reviewing the most recent Windows 0day disclosed by Nightmare Eclipse.

The Breaches You Don't See: Why Monitoring External Exposure Prevents Breaches

Most cybersecurity conversations focus on stopping attackers from breaking in. New malware variants, ransomware campaigns, AI-powered attacks, and zero-day vulnerabilities dominate the headlines. Yet many breaches occur for a much simpler reason: organizations unintentionally expose systems, applications, or data to the internet.

Inside the Data: What SMBs Want from Their MSPs in 2026

Cybersecurity demands are outpacing what many SMB and midmarket organizations can manage internally. New global research from WatchGuard Technologies shows rising concern around AI-driven attacks, increasing pressure for 24/7 monitoring, and growing demand for MSPs that can deliver measurable security outcomes. In this webinar, WatchGuard will break down key findings from its global cybersecurity survey and what they mean for MSPs looking to grow their security practice and strengthen customer relationships. You’ll learn.

How we're actually using AI in the SOC with Eric Capuano

Join us for the final episode of Defender Fridays as Eric Capuano, creator of Defender Fridays and co-founder of Digital Defense Institute, closes out the series with a candid conversation on how he's actually building and running agentic workflows in the SOC today. At Defender Fridays, we delve into the dynamic world of information security, exploring its defensive side with seasoned professionals from across the industry. Our aim is simple yet ambitious: to foster a collaborative space where ideas flow freely, experiences are shared, and knowledge expands.

Automate or Amplify: How to Scale a SOC Without Adding Headcount

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming how organizations approach cybersecurity. However, much of the debate still centers on the same old question: will AI eventually replace security analysts? In reality, the question is no longer whether AI will replace analysts, but how it can amplify their performance and redefine their role within the SOC.

Continuous Compliance at Scale with Agentic AI

Most MSSPs are spending analyst hours on compliance work that doesn't show up on an invoice. A client comes on board with HIPAA or CMMC requirements, someone manually audits detection rules and telemetry against framework controls, documents what's missing, and builds a remediation plan. Then the next audit cycle starts and you do it again, across every tenant, every framework, every year.
