Frontier AI is poised to change cybersecurity faster than most organizations can adapt. It’s accelerating vulnerability discovery, which puts new pressure on security teams to handle more vulnerabilities, in less time, with workflows built for much slower technology. The primary challenge of the frontier AI era is not the increase in vulnerabilities. It’s understanding which exposures are most critical and how to address them before adversaries target them.

India’s data protection landscape is changing. With the Digital Personal Data Protection Act bringing new compliance obligations to the fore, businesses across the country are being forced to think more...

AI models that generate code are also the best at exploiting it. Here’s why independent verification, not the model itself, is the only trustworthy answer. This month, the US government ordered Anthropic to suspend access to its most capable models, Mythos 5 and the newly released Fable 5, for all foreign nationals, citing national security. The trigger was a single reported jailbreak that let one of those models slip past its own guardrails on cybersecurity tasks.

Businesses must never store CVV/CVC codes, full magnetic stripe data, or PINs under any circumstances. For PANs that must be retained, use AES-256 encryption with hardware security modules (HSMs) or, better yet, replace card data entirely with tokens via a PCI-DSS-compliant third-party vault. This removes raw card data from your environment and reduces your compliance scope from SAQ D (hundreds of controls) to SAQ A (as few as 22 controls).

The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is a Department of Defense (DoD) framework made to ensure organizations handling federal information maintain adequate cybersecurity controls. While CMMC is often associated with government agencies and defense contractors, research universities involved in DoD-funded projects may also need to protect Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) like research data and technical specifications.

Most security teams aren’t naive to the growing risk in their environment, but because of high event volume and asset visibility gaps, emerging risk dynamics have become increasingly challenging to act on. Arctic Wolf’s latest State of the Cybersecurity Attack Surface report puts real data behind the challenge.

A newly disclosed zero day vulnerability, known as RoguePlanet, affects Microsoft Defender on fully patched Windows 10 and Windows 11 systems. The issue was publicly released in June 2026 by a researcher known as Nightmare Eclipse, who has published several Windows related exploits in recent months.

As a virtualization market leader, VMware offers products for a wide range of users. Its enterprise-grade line includes VMware vSphere products like ESXi, which is a type 1 hypervisor. VMware also offers type 2 hypervisors like VMware Workstation Player (or VMware Player) and VMware Workstation Pro (or VMware Workstation). Type 2 hypervisors are installed on the underlying host OS running on the physical machine.

VMware is one of the best virtualization platforms in the world, popular among IT specialists for its ability to provide high-speed operations, reliability, scalability, security, and convenience. VMware ESXi Server is a type 1 hypervisor designed to be installed directly on physical servers, that is, it is a bare metal hypervisor. VMware type 2 hypervisors (VMware Player, Workstation, and Fusion), on the other hand, can be installed on existing operating systems running on desktops and laptops.
