Where AI in the SOC is actually delivering - and where it isn't

Where AI in the SOC is actually delivering — and where it isn’t“We’ll have a generation of security professionals who can supervise AI but can’t function without it." For all the noise surrounding “agentic AI” in cybersecurity, security operations centers are still wrestling with the same fundamental questions: What does AI genuinely improve today? Where does it fall short? How can organizations tell the difference?

What MSP and IT leaders need to know about security, compliance and AI in 2026

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how organizations operate, but it’s also reshaping one of the most complex areas of IT: compliance. What was once a structured, checklist-driven process is now one that is continuous and fast-moving and that introduces new risks, dependencies and expectations.

RSA 2026: Leading the way to secure agentic AI

Every year, security and tech leaders come to the RSA conference in San Francisco to take the industry’s pulse, and every RSAC tends to be dominated by a single, overarching theme. Last year, the theme was: “AI agents are coming, and governance isn’t ready.” And sure enough, the theme of RSAC 2026 was: “AI agents are here, and governance needs to catch up.”

Custom Fonts Can Trick AI Assistants Into Approving Phishing Sites

Researchers at LayerX warn that custom fonts can fool AI web assistants into thinking phishing pages are benign, while the human user sees something completely different. “There is a structural disconnect between what an AI assistant analyzes in a page’s HTML and what a user sees rendered by the browser,” the researchers explain.

RBAC vs CBAC: Key Differences, Benefits, and Which One Your Business Needs

When businesses grow, managing who can access what becomes serious business. One wrong access permission can lead to data leaks, compliance penalties, or financial damage.

These numbers necessitate the requirement of having strong access control in place.
