Types of AI agents: From simple reflex to autonomous systems

AI agents fall into five foundational categories: simple reflex, model-based reflex, goal-based, utility-based, and learning agents. Each is defined by how much environmental awareness and decision-making complexity the system can handle, from fixed condition-action rules to feedback-driven self-improvement.

"Just looking at code and finding vulnerabilities is not going to stop breaches."

CrowdStrike CEO and Founder George Kurtz discusses with Dan Ives of Wedbush Securities why frontier AI models won’t replace cybersecurity platforms: stopping breaches requires proprietary data, real-time decisions, enterprise-grade support and the ability to act in milliseconds.

Federated Search: Access Data Beyond Your SIEM-Instantly

See how CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM Federated Search enables security teams to access and query data beyond the SIEM—instantly, and without rehydration. In this demo, you’ll learn how to search data directly where it lives, including external sources like Amazon S3, Falcon LogScale, and NDR platforms, using a single query language.

Why High DLP False Positive Rates Are a Security Problem, Not Just an Ops Problem

Most security teams treat a high volume of false positives as an analyst problem. Too many alerts, too little time, not enough headcount. So they add analysts, tune a few policies, and move on. That response is understandable, but it misdiagnoses the problem. When data loss prevention (DLP) false positive rates stay high over time, the issue is not a staffing gap. It is a detection accuracy problem, one that sits inside the tool, not the team.

Top 8 Access Control Challenges (And How to Fix Them)

Why do access control challenges exist, despite most companies following it? The gaps could be due to inconsistent permissions, accumulation of accesses, or poor management of user lifecycles. Access control is about governance. It answers two questions: “Who are you?” and “What are you allowed to do?” To add on, in today’s multi-cloud hybrid reality, governance is hard to handle. This isn’t another theoretical deep dive.

Vulnerability Prioritization Requires More Than a Score

As AI systems become more capable and increasingly embedded into business operations, security teams are confronting a familiar challenge in a new form: speed without context. Vulnerability discovery is accelerating toward machine scale, while adversaries continue to adapt in real time. In response, the industry has gravitated toward data‑driven scoring models to help determine what deserves attention first.

Longhorn on Production Clusters: Storage Configuration, Tuning, and Gotchas

Longhorn is a lightweight, distributed block storage system built specifically for Kubernetes. It runs entirely inside your cluster, turning local disks on worker nodes into replicated persistent volumes with no external storage array required. That simplicity is what makes it appealing, especially in the Rancher and SUSE ecosystem where it ships as the default storage option. You get persistent storage that is easy to install, easy to understand, and tightly integrated with the Kubernetes lifecycle.
