How to maintain code quality standards with AI code and vibe coding

It’s amazing how non-developers have recently been empowered to create their own apps that can even generate revenue. We’ve recently seen progress across the AI development field, from AI being successful in “greenfield code” (apps built from scratch) towards “brownfield code” (larger scale existing applications).

Emerging Threat: (CVE-2026-56291) Balbooa Forms Remote Code Execution via Unauthenticated File Upload

CVE-2026-56291 is an unauthenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability in Balbooa Forms, a commercial drag-and-drop form builder for Joomla installed as the com_baforms component. The flaw is classified as CWE-434, unrestricted upload of a file with a dangerous type. The vulnerability carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.8 (Critical). It has also been assigned a CVSS v4.0 base score of 10.0 (Critical), with an exploitation maturity of “attacked.”

LimeRat Malware: Delivery Techniques and Organizational Impact

Lime RAT stands out as an openly available and meticulously documented malware suite built on the.NET framework, boasting a multitude of capabilities that can be highly destructive when wielded proficiently. Its capacity to pilfer a wide array of valuable data, employ encryption for ransom purposes, or transform the targeted host into a basic-capability bot, combined with an easy-to-use control panel interface, positions it as a preferred choice for less experienced operators.

The Safety Problem Nobody Warns You About When You Start Training a Language Model

There's a version of the LLM safety conversation that stays comfortably abstract - AI alignment, existential risk, theoretical failure modes that matter at a scale most organizations will never reach. That conversation is important, but it's not the one most product and technology leaders need to be having right now. The one they need to be having is more immediate and considerably more practical: how the specific decisions made during llm training services directly shape whether the model you deploy is one your organization can actually stand behind.

Rethinking the Interception Proxy: Why Crusader is Betting on Local-First SQLite

For years, interception proxies have largely followed the same formula. Capture traffic, display requests, allow replay and modification, and store everything inside an internal project format. It is a workflow that has served penetration testers and bug hunters well, but it also creates an unexpected limitation: the data you generate during an assessment often becomes surprisingly difficult to use outside the proxy itself.

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

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

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

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

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%.
