Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

We’re excited to announce that GitProtect, an enterprise DevOps Backup & Disaster Recovery software, is now officially available on Microsoft Marketplace! This milestone represents more than a new distribution channel. It reinforces our commitment to delivering secure, enterprise-ready DevOps data protection, which is now also accessible through a trusted Microsoft ecosystem.

Microsoft Defender is widely deployed across small and midsize businesses. It is built into the Microsoft ecosystem, familiar to IT teams, and effective at detecting suspicious activity on endpoints. However, detection alone does not stop an attack. As cyber threats evolve, the biggest risk is not missing alerts. It’s failing to investigate and respond to them fast enough. The risk lies in what happens after an alert is generated.

Cato CTRL’s Vitaly Simonovich (senior security researcher) has identified a threat actor selling root shell access to a UK-based automation company through a compromised AI personal assistant based on OpenClaw.

AI agents aren’t applications. They’re employees. So why are we treating them like applications? AI agents don’t behave like classic applications. They access systems. They make decisions. They operate continuously. They interact with humans and other systems without being explicitly triggered each time. That’s not automation. That’s not scripts. That’s a digital worker.

Vector databases are everywhere now. If you are building anything with AI—recommendation engines, semantic search, RAG pipelines—you are probably running a vector database. And if you are running it in production, you are running Milvus on Kubernetes. Here is the problem. Your vector database holds millions of embeddings. Maybe hundreds of millions. Each one represents expensive processing—API calls to OpenAI, inference from your own models, hours of batch jobs.

The CertKit Agent 1.6 is out. Three things in this release, all of them coming from the same underlying problem: the shorter certificate lifespans get, the more certificate deployment has to behave like real software deployments.

Let’s face it, most businesses have commitment issues. Not the relationship kind (we can’t help you there), but the kind that shows up after a customer contract is signed. ‍ You make a promise to a customer—about response times, security practices, or data handling—but when an incident hits or it's time for your audit, no one can exactly remember what the organization promised, to whom, or by when. And if commitments go unmet, your revenue and reputation is at risk.

In the digital world today, cyber risks are increasing, harming business operations, customer trust, and the bottom line. Cyberattacks are changing quickly. Ransomware, hacking, and data breaches are just a few examples of how they hurt businesses financially and publicly. A study published in Cybersecurity Ventures revealed that cybercrime is projected to cost the world $10.5 trillion annually by 2025. This shows how important it is to implement strong security measures.
