2026 Cybersecurity Predictions by Teleport CEO Ev Kontsevoy

2025 was a turning point for identity security. Many professionals realized that traditional human and machine-focused identity solutions just don’t work for AI. AI is non-deterministic like a human, yet it’s still software. This creates an entirely new identity category. Traditional IAM tools would treat AI identities as yet another separate type, creating new silos.

Building a Real-Time Multiplayer Chess Game Inside ChatGPT (Agents SDK)

In this clip from This Week in NET, Systems Engineer Steve James gives a hands-on demo of a real-time multiplayer chess game running inside ChatGPT, built with the Agents SDK and Cloudflare Workers. Beyond the demo, we talk about what developers can build today with AI agents — and why, given the pace of innovation, it’s genuinely hard to predict what applications and experiences will emerge in 2026.

The SOC Analyst Agent: Bring an Agentic approach to work with your SOC team

For years, security teams have dealt with the challenges of alert fatigue, endless tools and data sources, and constant context switching. But, so far, we haven’t been able to significantly improve it with traditional tools. However, new agentic approaches can start providing improved gains. This begins to change the way SOC teams operate and approach managing their talent.
