Confluence is used to store some of the most important knowledge across many organizations, such as technical docs, internal procedures, compliance materials, customer information, and even recovery instructions. This article explains the most important Confluence security best practices, how they differ from Jira security, and why backup and recovery should be part of a complete Confluence data protection strategy.

AI agents are moving from experiments into production workflows, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) is becoming the connective layer that enables those agents to access enterprise data, applications, APIs, repositories, and automation tools. That makes MCP powerful, but also security-critical. As organizations adopt agentic AI, they need to understand not only how MCP improves connectivity but also how it creates new visibility, governance, and attack-surface challenges.

Today, Cato Networks announced a collaboration with CrowdStrike to integrate the Cato SASE Platform with the CrowdStrike Falcon platform. Together, the companies are helping security teams unify network and endpoint visibility, streamline investigations, and accelerate threat detection and response. If there’s one frustration that unites IT and security professionals, it’s this: too many tools that don’t talk to each other.

Every conversation our team has with security leaders begins the same way. Nobody is backing off on AI in the SOC. The direction of the lean is what’s shifting. Torq’s 2026 AI SOC Leadership Report surveyed more than 450 CISOs and SOC leaders. The data confirms what those conversations were already telling me. We’ve left the adoption phase. The market is now in the architecture phase and the implications for how teams plan, buy, and build are significant.

The final part of CYJAX's rail cybersecurity series sets out a practical, five-step roadmap for building a rail-specific threat intelligence capability, covering regulation, coverage, and where to start regardless of maturity.
