BDRShield v9.5.0 is now available with enhanced multi-tenant management and expanded resumable backup support. The release gives administrators more control over tenant access and resources, while helping more interrupted backup...

TL;DR: Active-active replication lets every node in a cluster accept writes and sync changes to its peers, which keeps writes available during regional outages but adds conflict resolution, replication lag, higher costs, and no protection against corruption or ransomware. It justifies that complexity mainly for five-nines, multi-region, or edge workloads, while read replicas, sharding, or active-passive setups suit most other needs.

Last week, dozens of schools found out their certificate authority was being distrusted and they needed to replace all of their certificates in a few days. We wanted to know how we’d handle it if our own CA went away, and how long it would take. So we tried it with one of our other products. It has 6 certificates from Let’s Encrypt, deploying to 18 targets across Windows IIS, Linux nginx, Elasticsearch, and a mail server. Then we wargamed it: “Let’s Encrypt is being distrusted.

KnoxIQ is the agentic triage layer in Appknox. It takes the findings from your SAST and DAST scans, filters out the ones that aren't real and ranks the rest by how exploitable they are in your build. For each one, it shows you how to reproduce it and writes a fix for your app, including a prompt for Claude Code, Cursor, Github Copilot or any AI coding agent.

Cyber intrusions targeting the legal sector nearly doubled between 2023 and 2026, reflecting the value of legal entities to both eCrime and nation-state adversaries. Legal entities hold privileged communications, corporate transactions, intellectual property, government matters, and financial records that make them valuable targets for threat actors seeking financial gain or long-term strategic intelligence.

CrowdStrike researchers asked a frontier AI model to explain a function in a small C web server. While it had previously explained every other function in the codebase without hesitation, it refused to explain this one. The request was routine. We'd only asked what the code does; we hadn't asked about security, exploits, or vulnerabilities. But a single token in the code had changed: a max swapped for a min; a one-character logic inversion that creates an out-of-bounds write.

Security teams have never been better at finding problems. Discovery is broader, detection is sharper, and the volume of findings keeps climbing. But a finding is not a fix. When teams identify a risky AI agent, an exposed MCP server, or an active attack against an API, what happens next usually looks the same: someone triages it, someone opens a ticket, and someone on another team eventually makes the change. Until then, the risk stays exactly where it was.

When an auditor or an RFP asks how your organization handles AI risk, the OWASP Top 10 lists are often a core part of the checklist behind the question. Cato AI Security is built to address the risks on two lists.

Short answer: Do not assume an embedding is anonymous. An embedding can be matched back to the text it came from, and the text is usually stored right next to it. Treat each representation in a RAG pipeline as personal data when it can still be tied to a person, which is most of the time for chunk text. When the source record is deleted, every copy has to go. Your team builds a RAG assistant over HR policy and customer contracts. Documents go in, get chunked, get embedded, and land in a vector store.
