Automated network pentesting uncovers what traditional tests missed

Most organizations run an annual network penetration test, remediate the issues it uncovers, and move on. But attackers are probing networks every day, using publicly available tools to exploit common misconfigurations and overlooked vulnerabilities. A… Continue reading Automated network pentesting uncovers what traditional tests missed

Identity management was hard, AI made it harder

Identity security is becoming a core part of cybersecurity operations, but many organizations are falling behind. A new report from SailPoint shows that as AI-driven identities and machine accounts grow, most security teams are not prepared to manage t… Continue reading Identity management was hard, AI made it harder

Cutting through CVE noise with real-world threat signals

CISOs are dealing with an overload of vulnerability data. Each year brings tens of thousands of new CVEs, yet only a small fraction ever become weaponized. Teams often fall back on CVSS scores, which label thousands of flaws as “high” or “critical” but… Continue reading Cutting through CVE noise with real-world threat signals

Can AI make threat intelligence easier? One platform thinks so

When analysts at RH-ISAC found themselves spending 10 hours a week just collecting threat intelligence, they knew their process wasn’t sustainable. They were manually tracking blogs, RSS feeds, and social media channels, but it took too long to separat… Continue reading Can AI make threat intelligence easier? One platform thinks so

What CISOs can learn from Doppel’s new AI-driven social engineering simulation

Doppel has introduced a new product called Doppel Simulation, which expands its platform for defending against social engineering. The tool uses autonomous AI agents to create multi-channel simulations that mirror how attackers operate across email, SM… Continue reading What CISOs can learn from Doppel’s new AI-driven social engineering simulation

How Brandolini’s law informs our everyday infosec reality

Brandolini’s law, also known as the “bullshit asymmetry principle”, is simple but devastating: “The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it.” While it’s often thrown around in poli… Continue reading How Brandolini’s law informs our everyday infosec reality

DARPA’s AI Cyber Challenge reveals winning models for automated vulnerability discovery and patching

The initiative seeks to patch vulnerabilities in open-source code before they are exploited by would-be attackers. Now comes the hard part — putting the systems to the test in the real world.

The post DARPA’s AI Cyber Challenge reveals winning models for automated vulnerability discovery and patching appeared first on CyberScoop.
