The UK’s ambition to become a global leader in artificial intelligence (AI) marks a transformative era. However, the foundation of this progress—the energy sector—has emerged as a prime target for cybercriminals. While AI-driven technologies offer greater efficiency and resilience, they also heighten the sector’s vulnerability to cyberattacks. To sustain the nation’s AI advancements, ensuring the security of the energy infrastructure must be a critical priority.

As businesses move to the cloud, security approaches need to move at the same pace. By 2023, 70% of workloads will be running in cloud environments—but traditional defenses lag behind. With an average of 1,427 cloud services in use and cloud security expenditures projected to explode past $48.9 billion by 2026, the risks have never been greater. Extended Detection and Response (XDR) is stepping up as an unstoppable force, particularly when being driven by cloud-native architecture.

Today, we’re sharing a preview of a new feature that makes it easier to build cross-cloud apps: Workers VPC. Workers VPC is our take on the traditional virtual private cloud (VPC), modernized for a network and compute that isn’t tied to a single cloud region. And we’re complementing it with Workers VPC Private Links to make building across clouds easier.

Level Up Your Security Game: Time for a Mindset Reset! Hey everyone, and welcome! If you're involved in keeping your organization safe online these days, you're in the right place. For years, security felt like building a super strong castle with thick walls and a deep moat, hoping the bad guys would just stay outside. But let's be real, in our multi-cloud world, that castle is starting to look a little... outdated. Think about it: your apps and data aren't neatly tucked away in one place anymore.

The proliferation of AI has rapidly introduced many new software technologies, each with its own potential misconfigurations that can compromise information security. Thus the mission of UpGuard Research: discover the vectors particular to a new technology and measure its cyber risk. This investigation looks at llama.cpp, an open-source framework for using large language models (LLMs).
