More Vulnerabilities Are Being Found Than Ever Before. That's Good News.

Sep 16, 2026 By Tracy Hillstrom In WatchGuard
If you've glanced at a vulnerability tracker lately, the numbers look alarming. The Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST) now projects roughly 66,000 CVEs will be published in 2026; up from a February forecast of 59,427 and closing in on 70,000 by some counts. That would follow a record 2025, which finished at roughly 48,000 disclosed CVEs, itself a sharp climb from about 40,000 the year before. It's tempting to read that curve as a sign that software is getting worse. It isn't.

Best Dark Web Monitoring Services for Business

Sep 16, 2026 By Lance Turner In UpGuard
Most security stacks still find out about stolen credentials the hard way: when an attacker logs in with them. Sometimes the first warning sign is a customer complaint or a call from law enforcement. Dark web monitoring services for business close that gap by watching underground sources for any exposure tied to your domains, employees, code, and brand, so you can reset access before someone else gets there first.

Research - From Square Root to /root: Escalating Privileges in Azure Containers with Python in Excel

Sep 16, 2026 By SafeBreach In SafeBreach
Isolation is not the same thing as security. Ron Ben Yizhak from SafeBreach Labs presented this research at Black Hat USA and DEF CON: when Microsoft shipped Python in Excel, the code didn't run on a machine. It ran in an isolated container in Azure. So he asked the obvious question. How isolated is it, really? An isolated environment still has an attack surface. It just moves. See how Ron: If your teams are evaluating cloud-executed code features, this one is worth the full read—the methodology matters as much as the findings.
