What Campaigns Like Grandoreiro Teach Us About Threat Detection

Aug 25, 2026 By Euler Neto In WatchGuard
The recent Grandoreiro campaign detected by the WatchGuard Threat Lab team is a clear example of how today’s threats combine different techniques to make detection more difficult and operate more discreetly.

State AI Laws Change Faster Than Compliance Programs

Aug 25, 2026 By Kovrr In Kovrr
Colorado passed the first comprehensive state AI law in May 2024, and organizations spent the following year building impact assessment processes against it. Those obligations never took effect.
