Rondodox Botnet: Understanding a Low-Visibility Cyber Threat

Jan 16, 2026 By SafeAeon Inc. In SafeAeon
Rondodox is a botnet that operates quietly and causes damage over time. It does not flood networks with traffic or trigger obvious alerts. It continues to run in the background for extended periods without being detected. In most cases, botnets are found when something breaks, but Rondodox is different. It blends into normal activity and relies on low-noise communication. This is why detecting this botnet is difficult, even in environments with mature security tools.

Cybersecurity is no longer just an IT problem. It's an Engineering problem. #ainews #engineering

Cybersecurity is no longer just an IT problem. It’s an Engineering problem. In his second prediction for the year, Ev argues that the traditional IT model is shifting, and the role of engineers is expanding. Traditionally, securing infrastructure belonged to the IT department. The rise of AI identities adds a layer of complexity that traditional IT tools just weren't built for. As Ev explains in this clip, if you want to protect your system from misbehaving AI, you need the people who built the system in the first place.

Five things successful IT teams get right about SaaS management

Jan 16, 2026 By Chris Fowler In 1Password
It’s easy to see how SaaS sprawl happens if you picture the moment it starts. A team is blocked, someone needs a tool ASAP, and the answer to their problems lies just behind a free trial, so they sign up for a new tool. No one is being careless. They’re being efficient. The problem is that follow-up rarely keeps pace with new sign-ups, especially when the card on file belongs to "the company" and the requester has already moved on to the next priority.

The Architecture of Agentic Defense: Inside the Falcon Platform

Jan 16, 2026 By Elia Zaitsev In CrowdStrike
The architectural divide in cybersecurity is no longer theoretical. It's operational. Adversaries are deploying AI-accelerated attacks and moving laterally across domains faster than human analysts can correlate evidence. Meanwhile, defenders are adopting AI tools that accelerate individual tasks but still operate on fragmented data and require manual correlation across disconnected systems.

The Continuing Risk of Remote Code Execution

Jan 16, 2026 By Arctic Wolf In Arctic Wolf
In 2025, there were more than 48,000 vulnerabilities published, amounting to over a 20% increase from 2024. More troubling than the sheer volume of vulnerabilities in 2025 is that more than a third of them were given a rating of “high” or “critical” severity. For security teams already stretched too thin, a proactive vulnerability management plan that patches or otherwise remediates all vulnerabilities is too far out of reach.
