When we first launched Egnyte’s AI features built on retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), customer response was overwhelmingly positive. Users could quickly find and synthesize information from vast document repositories with accuracy and context. But success breeds ambition. As customers grew comfortable with the system, they began exploring new use cases that revealed a limitation: while our RAG excelled with plain text, it struggled with tables, charts, and other structured formats.

Building products while pursuing compliance frameworks like SOC 2 or HIPAA can feel complex and time-consuming. Challenges such as unclear integrations, manual evidence collection, and procurement delays are common, but with AWS-native automation tools, companies can overcome these hurdles and accelerate their compliance journey. ‍ In this post, we'll break down three core ways Vanta simplifies compliance for cloud-forward teams, so you can move faster, stay secure, and focus on building. ‍

The threat landscape in Mexico is a precarious one.

OpenAI has published a report looking at AI-enabled malicious activity, noting that threat actors are increasingly using AI tools to assist in social engineering attacks and influence operations. In one case, the company banned ChatGPT accounts that were likely being used in North Korean attempts to fraudulently obtain jobs at US companies. “Similar to the threat actors we disrupted and wrote about in February, the latest campaigns attempted to use AI at each step of the employment process.

How many times have you experienced this scenario at work? A hot new AI tool emerges, promising game-changing productivity and innovative features. You can’t wait to try it out in your own workflow. But what is often your security team’s first instinct? Block it.

Chroma is an open-source vector store–a database designed to allow LLM chatbots to search for relevant information when answering a user’s question–and one of many technologies that have seen adoption grow with the recent AI boom. Like many databases, Chroma can be configured by end users to lack authentication and authorization mechanisms.

Brilliant AI, broken defenses? AI-powered apps are revolutionizing how we search, learn, and communicate, but the rapid pace of innovation has come at a cost: security is often an afterthought. As part of our AI App Security Analysis Series, we’ve been scrutinizing some of the most popular AI tools on Android for hidden vulnerabilities that could put millions of users at risk.

AI coding assistants like GitHub Copilot and Google Gemini Code Assist are changing how developers work — accelerating delivery, removing repetition, and giving teams back time to build. But speed isn’t free. Studies show that around 27% of AI-generated code contains vulnerabilities, not because the tools are broken, but because they generate code faster than most teams can review it. The result? A growing wave of insecure code is making it into production.

The EU AI Act is the most comprehensive law in the world to regulate artificial intelligence. This law doesn’t just apply to organizations inside the European Union, it also affects anyone doing business with the EU or offering AI-powered services in that market. If you use AI tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, Jasper, or Bard for automation, reporting, or client communication, yes, then definitely this applies to you.
