Since June, developers have created thousands of third-party OAuth apps on Cloudflare, with more than a million authorizations since. OAuth makes delegated access possible. It lets applications act on a user’s behalf without asking them to handle long-lived credentials or hand over a password.

The reviewer moves on to the next vendor. Multiply that by a few hundred vendors a year, and it becomes less of a decision and more of a reflex.

A new report commissioned by IBM has found that one in four breaches is now AI-enabled, up 56% from last year. “Most AI-driven attacks reported in the study targeted critical infrastructure sectors (62%), with financial services and energy organizations experiencing the highest concentration, raising the risk of broader systemic disruption,” the report says. “Financial services breaches were reported to cost on average $6.3 million, while energy breaches cost on average $5.2 million.
