May 5, 2026 By Greg Keshian In BitSight
A recent open letter from the UK government on AI-driven cyber threats highlights a clear shift in the threat landscape. Cyberattacks are no longer constrained in the same way by human expertise, as advanced AI models can now help identify vulnerabilities, generate exploit code, and increase the speed and scale of attacks.

Payment Infrastructure Is Now Part of the Attack Surface

Payment Infrastructure Is Now Part of the Attack Surface

May 5, 2026 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
Every payment creates a moment of trust. A customer enters card details, a gateway approves or rejects the transaction, fraud checks run in the background, and sensitive data moves between systems in seconds. When that process works, it feels invisible. When it fails, the damage can reach far beyond a lost sale.

How to Stop Digital Impersonation Attacks: Why Email Authentication Alone Isn't Enough

May 1, 2026 By Ezra M. In Memcyco
Phishing reports and customer complaints are not early warning signals. By the time they arrive, attackers have already built the infrastructure. Lookalike domains are live, credential harvesting pages are indexed, and the exposure window is open. To stop digital impersonation attacks, organizations need to shift detection to the infrastructure preparation stage, before distribution begins.

CyberPhysical Security: Protecting the Modern EV Charging Perimeter

CyberPhysical Security: Protecting the Modern EV Charging Perimeter

Apr 30, 2026 By SecuritySenses In SecuritySenses
Electric vehicles have crossed from niche technology into mainstream infrastructure. Charging networks now form a critical layer of both the energy grid and the transportation system, and attackers have noticed. EV charging sits at a three-way intersection of cloud software, operational technology, and automotive systems. Each domain has its own threat model, its own tooling, and its own team assuming someone else owns the risk. That gap is where adversaries operate.

Mini Shai-Hulud Targets SAP npm Packages With a Bun-Based Secret Stealer

Apr 29, 2026 By Raphael Silva In Aikido
A new npm supply-chain compromise is targeting the SAP developer ecosystem. The affected packages we are tracking so far are: The pattern is familiar but also a bit different: a trusted package receives a new preinstall hook, the hook runs a new setup.mjs file, and that loader downloads the Bun JavaScript runtime to execute a large obfuscated payload named execution.js. The payload is an 11.7 MB credential stealer and propagation framework.
