The fight against cybercrime continues because threat actors have adapted their strategies to avoid deterrents, but law enforcement still operates in silos.
In the span of three weeks, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta have all disclosed AI agent sandbox escape events affecting real organizations.
A researcher demonstrated a proof-of-concept attack chain that provided C2-style influence over ChatGPT's isolated sandbox during a session at Black Hat USA 2026.
Zero trust security assumes no user or device is trusted by default. See how Huntress enforces the model with Managed EDR and ITDR for lean IT teams.
Two former chief security officers of the Democratic National Committee explain that a strong security-first mindset requires executive support — and a dose of absurdity.
In this week's newsletter, Martin looks at how the metaphors we use to describe AI "escaping" its sandbox can completely change how we react to the threat.
A 26-year-old Canadian man once described as one of the most consequential cybercrime threat actors of 2024 has pleaded guilty to computer fraud and conspiracy to hack and extort more than 165 organizations that used the cloud data storage provider Snowflake. Connor Riley Moucka, of Kitchener, Ontario, also admitted to stealing call and text history records of more than 100 million AT&T customers.
This post assumes familiarity with envelope encryption and the AWS Encryption SDK. When your encryption system generates millions of duplicate API calls per hour, costs spiral and performance degrades. That’s exactly the challenge NICE Actimize faced while operating their global-scale, event-driven financial crime detection platform on Amazon Web Services (AWS). NICE Actimize, a leading provider […]

Written by: Tyler McLellan, Austin Larsen Introduction Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) continues to track UNC6671 actively conducting compromises leading to data theft extortion, despite the alleged announced retirement of the BlackFile extortion brand in May 2026. Telemetry and infrastructure analysis reveal that rather than disbanding, UNC6671 has diversified its operations across multiple extortion fronts including Redact, Pink, Helix, and Falcon. UNC6671 continues to rely on voice p…
We spent 500+ hours and 40 billion tokens testing Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Preview for Project Glasswing. The takeaway: frontier AI won't run your code security program, but used well, it can make one even stronger.Key takeawaysFrontier AI dramatically scales security testing. In one month, Tenable dedicated 11 security experts and more than 40 billion tokens testing Claude Mythos Preview across source code analysis, exploit creation, binary reverse engineering, threat modeling, and dynamic te…
Discover how attackers hijack AI tokens to fuel gray market transfer stations by stealing developer API keys. The post Token Jacking: Cybercriminals Could Be Stealing Your AI Resources appeared first on Unit 42.
Organized crime is convincingly scamming at scale, making billions thanks to AI-enabled voice cloning, deepfake real-time video overlays, LLM-driven persona management, and automated translation.
Attackers can take control of agents through malicious instructions hidden in content supplied to AI browsers, and there's no simple fix for the threat.
AI browsers from top vendors remain vulnerable to prompt injection attacks despite multiple security guardrails, according to new research.
Customers have access to models that are continuously getting better with each new generation bringing larger context windows, stronger reasoning, and lower token costs. Getting the strongest AI-powered security will come from tools that combine the most relevant models with deep knowledge of a customer’s specific environment. AWS Continuum for code vulnerabilities (Preview) is built […]
CSS was once just about design. Now researchers warn it's powerful enough to exfiltrate data from webmail — and some vendors aren't prepared.
Researchers are calling attention to the risks inherent in automated network device provisioning, using a world-leading device manufacturer as a case study.
Google has fixed the issues, which exploited a trust boundary between two AI agents with different privilege levels to trigger automation that could compromise the supply chain.
Imagine preparing for your biggest sales event of the year, and you want to ensure your customer identity management service can handle the elevated traffic for carrying out application activities. For security teams, business leaders, and technologists managing identity infrastructure at scale, this scenario has been all too familiar. Whether you’re a CISO evaluating security […]

On August 5, 2026, the Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) published the following advisories: Cisco Security Advisory CVE ID Security Impact Rating CVSS Base Score Cisco Catalyst SD-WAN Software Security Hardening Release: August 2026 CVE-2026-20303CVE-2026-20304CVE-2026-20310CVE-2026-20312CVE-2026-20313 Critical 9.9 Cisco IOS XE Software Security Hardening Release: August 2026 CVE-2026-20267CVE-2026-20268CVE-2026-20269CVE-2026-20270CVE-2026-20271CVE-2026-20272CVE-2026-20273 …
As part of Cisco's ongoing commitment to proactive security and product quality, the Cisco IOS XE Software engineering team has conducted a comprehensive internal security review. This review resulted in software hardening releases that address multiple internally discovered vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities were found during internal testing and are not known to be actively exploited. To assist customers in patching and to streamline the disclosure process, Cisco has grouped these issues …
A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker with low privileges to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to insufficient error handling in the web-based management interface. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by authenticating with a malformed certificate. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the affected device to reload, resulting i…
A vulnerability in the web-based management interface of Cisco Integrated Management Controller (IMC) could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to conduct a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack against a user of the interface. This vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user input. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by persuading a user of an affected interface to click a crafted link. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to execute arbitrary script code in the b…
A vulnerability in the logging subsystem of Cisco RoomOS could allow an authenticated, local attacker with low privileges to access sensitive information. This vulnerability is due to the logging of sensitive information. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by enabling a specific logging level and then collecting the system logs. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to view sensitive information like user login credentials. Cisco has released software updates that address this…
A vulnerability in the Blocks Extensible Exchange Protocol (BEEP) feature of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to improper handling when parsing a specific BEEP SOAP request. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specific BEEP SOAP request to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the device to reload unexpected…
A vulnerability in the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) subsystem of Cisco IOS XE Software could allow an authenticated, remote attacker to cause an affected device to reload, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. This vulnerability is due to improper error handling when parsing SNMP requests. This vulnerability affects all versions of SNMP — Versions 1, 2c, and 3.
