The AI Inventory Problem Nobody Solved
By now, most organizations have invested in AI governance. Far fewer have solved the problem that makes governance possible in the first place: knowing what AI they are actually running — and with 57% of employees using AI tools at work without telling their manager, the gap is wider than most inventories admit. In this video, Kovrr breaks down what an AI asset inventory actually is, why traditional asset management never catches shadow AI, and what it takes to keep the record accurate.
How Behavioral Analytics Closes the Insider Threat Dwell Time Gap
Insider threats often remain hidden during early activity because individual actions appear normal in isolation. Behavioral analytics closes the dwell time gap by establishing baselines for normal behavior, evaluating activity over time, and identifying meaningful deviations before attackers trigger traditional detections.
Security maturity isn't a single score. #netwrix #datasecurity #identitysecurity

CISO Risk Intel Brief: Application Risk Intelligence for Early August 2026
Senior security leadership continues to confront a dual acceleration: self-propagating software supply-chain worms that weaponize developer credentials at unprecedented velocity, and the persistent security debt introduced by AI-generated code. This briefing synthesizes material developments across the most recent seven days and the preceding thirty days, framed strictly around residual risk, control effectiveness, and business enablement.
MCP Security Risks: Trusting Tool Descriptions Without Standards
Are we trusting AI tools too much? Right now, agents trust tool descriptions without verification. This could lead to serious security risks! What happens when a major server gets compromised? It's time to rethink our standards for AI tool security. What do you think about AI trust issues?
Ep. 72 - The File That Lies: One CLAUDE.md Walks Off With Your Agent's Credentials
A poisoned CLAUDE.md file inside a cloned repository quietly tells a coding agent to send its test logs to an outside endpoint, and the agent complies, shipping environment details, internal system information, and API keys to a server the developer never controlled. The model was not broken. It was obedient. In this episode of The Cyber Resilience Brief (a SafeBreach podcast), host Tova Dvorin and SafeBreach senior sales engineer Adrian Culley break down why building agentic AI controls is not the same as proving they hold under attack.
Best Ransomware Protection Tools to Protect Your Business
Ransomware attacks remain one of the most damaging cyber threats facing businesses today. These attacks mostly begin through phishing links, malicious downloads, exposed services, or stolen credentials. Once attackers gain access, they begin encrypting data to demand ransom and disrupt overall business operations. To mitigate this risk, organizations need to implement strong ransomware protection that blocks malicious activity early and detects suspicious behavior.
40 Million Fake Push: When Spam Commits Took Over The Public GitHub
Millions of fake commits are flooding GitHub's public feed. We followed the trail to a rebranded gambling site hiding behind a defunct lottery brand.
How to Connect Claude to Jira Securely Without Giving AI Unrestricted Access
Teams are connecting Claude to Jira to summarize issues, draft tickets, and answer sprint questions in seconds. The productivity gains are real, but so is the security risk. The problem is simple: a direct connection gives Claude the same permissions as the person who set it up. If that user can view confidential projects or delete issues, so can Claude. There's no business logic in between deciding what AI should and shouldn't touch. Most organizations don't want to ban AI.
