Meta's AI Safety Chief Couldn't Stop Her Own Agent. What Makes You Think You Can Stop Yours? Two incidents from the last two weeks of February need to be read together, because separately they look like cautionary anecdotes and together they look

Meta's AI safety chief lost control of her own agent. An AI bot attacked 6 open-source repos for 10 days undetected. Your controls were built for humans. Agents aren't human. The gap between executive confidence and actual capability is the real risk.

Every network has an expiration date.

AI demand and quantum computing are rewriting the rules of enterprise infrastructure—and Cisco is making a big architectural bet to stay ahead of both.

Your AI cluster is only as fast as the network feeding it.

A dropped packet doesn't just cause latency — it idles thousands of GPUs simultaneously.

Anthropic Didn’t Kill Cybersecurity. It Just Reminded Us There Are Two Doors. - Security Boulevard Anthropic’s Claude Code Security sparked a sharp SaaS market selloff, but investors missed a critical reality: AI code scanning addresses only half of modern cyberattacks. Identity, credentials, and human factors remain the dominant breach vectors.

Anthropic's code scanner sent cyber stocks crashing. Okta. SailPoint. Down 9%+. For a tool that doesn't touch identity security at all. Attackers have two doors — code vulnerabilities and identity abuse. AI just slammed one of them. The other is still wide open. 🔗

OT operators bypass security tools when networks drop. Not malice — survival instinct. Xona's v5.5 just closed that gap. New analysis: paradigmtechnica.com... #OTSecurity #CriticalInfrastructure

Enterprises are losing the AI race not because they lack compute — but because their data is chaos. One exabyte. One rack. One open standard that changes the economics entirely.

Every generation gets its Chicken Littles. The printing press was going to destroy society. So was the car. The computer. They were wrong every time — and the AI doomsayers are wrong now. History doesn't care about your panic.

The Lock, Not the Alarm: How Palo Alto's Koi Acquisition Rewrites Endpoint Security The acquisition of Koi Security isn't just a product play — it's a declaration that the agentic era has created an entirely new threat surface, and the

Palo Alto just spent $400M on a 1-year-old startup — right after a $25B CyberArk deal. The reason why reveals something every CISO needs to understand about agentic security. My analysis:

AI Tooling is Causing Identity Security Issues with 1Password - Tech Field Day Podcast Spotlight 1Password Presentations at #XFD14: https://techfieldday.com/appearance/1password-presents-at-security-field-day-14/ The rise of AI tooling and agents in the enterprise has created a gap with identity security platforms. Addressing that gap remains challenging when so much is still unclear about how

I recently joined the Tech Field Day podcast to discuss how Agentic AI is rewriting the rules of identity security. We explored why security must move to the edge and how 1Password is making the "easy thing the secure thing" to enable developer velocity. 🛡️🤖

Shadow AI. Prompt injection. Rogue agents. Your AI copilot is your biggest security blind spot — and most tools can't see it. Proofpoint's acquisition of Acuvity aims to change that. My analysis: paradigmtechnica.com... #CyberSecurity #AI

The FBI Recovered “Deleted” Nest Cam Footage — Here’s Why Every CISO Should Panic - Security Boulevard The Nancy Guthrie case reveals serious data retention issues in cloud tech. Investigators recovered footage from a Google Nest camera even after it was marked for deletion. This raises urgent questions about how we manage data and the importance of strong cybersecurity measures for IoT devices. #Cybersecurity #DataRetention #IoT

The FBI recovered "deleted" Nest Cam footage that Google said should've been purged. Your cloud vendor's delete button is a polite fiction. Every CISO needs to read this.

AI agents operate at machine speed with broad permissions—but most security tools were built for humans. Varonis's acquisition of AllTrue.ai marks a major shift in enterprise AI security. What you need to know: paradigmtechnica.com...

All Aboard the Zero-Trust Train The castle has fallen. The moat has dried up. Your perimeter? It’s a fiction you’ve been telling yourself while adversaries waltz through your “trusted”

The castle has fallen. Your perimeter is fiction. The NSA just dropped its Zero Trust Implementation Guidelines—and they're not playing games. Every org needs this roadmap NOW. Nation-states are already inside "secure" networks. All aboard or get left behind.

We’re Moving Too Fast: Why AI’s Race to Market Is a Security Disaster The recently disclosed ServiceNow vulnerability should terrify every CISO in America. CVE-2025-12420, dubbed “BodySnatcher,” represents everything wrong

The ServiceNow 'BodySnatcher' vulnerability (CVE-2025-12420) shows why AI's race to market is a security disaster. Unauthenticated attackers hijacking AI agents to bypass MFA? This is what happens when we ship AI without proper security. My latest:

Attackers see your network as a connected graph. You see disconnected alerts. That's why you're losing.

Identity fraudsters found the weak spot: attack the chip, disable digital verification, claim it got damaged in my pocket.
HINT's solution is almost too simple: make the chip visible. Attacks leave cracks, burns, blisters anyone can see.
