Cloud Risk Management for MSPs: From Visibility to Control

Guest post by Neil Holme, Founder and CEO of Impact Business Technology, a WatchGuard partner. The cloud environments MSPs manage change every week. Clients adopt new SaaS applications, AI tools, and collaboration services, making it difficult to track what is in use, how it is configured, and which access permissions remain active. Exposure grows without a clear warning sign until an incident occurs. The cloud is also the fastest-growing attack surface an MSP manages.

Chaining Vulnerabilities into Attack Vectors with Autonomous Pentesting

Your vulnerability report is sorted by severity. The adversary looking at the same environment is sorted by path. That mismatch is the whole problem. Open any scanner output, and you get a tidy hierarchy: criticals at the top, then highs, then a long tail of mediums and lows that most teams will never touch. To the person who wrote the ticket, that tail is noise. To someone who thinks in chains, it’s a roadmap. A page of “lows” is not a page of things you can ignore.

AppTrana Adds Post-Quantum Cryptography Support with X25519MLKEM768

Quantum computers could very soon undermine the public-key cryptography that secures financial transactions, health records, and other sensitive data moving over TLS today. When that happens, encrypted information protected by vulnerable cryptography could become accessible. Encrypted traffic can be intercepted and stored today, with the expectation that it will be decrypted once a sufficiently capable quantum computer exists.

The only perfect Endpoint Prevention and Response (EPR) score in 2026 belongs to Elastic

Elastic sits at the very top of this year’s AV-Comparatives' CyberRisk Quadrant within the 2026 Endpoint Prevention and Response (EPR) test with the only protection scores at 100%, combined with both the lowest modelled operational footprint of any tested product and zero false alerts.

Red Teaming Agentic AI: Why Testing the Model Is No Longer Enough

In January 2025, NIST's Center for AI Standards and Innovation published red team results that should have changed how enterprises test autonomous systems. Against an AI agent operating in simulated workspace, travel, Slack and banking environments, the strongest previously known hijacking attack succeeded 11% of the time. The strongest new attack developed by the red team succeeded 81% of the time. The model had not changed. The evaluation had.

Ranked: The 10 Best AI SEO Agencies for 2026

SEO is having a bit of a moment. Getting onto page one of Google still matters, of course, but that is no longer the whole picture. Brands now also need to think about whether they are being mentioned in AI-generated answers, summaries, recommendations, and conversational search results. That is where AI SEO comes in. The strongest agencies in 2026 are not throwing traditional SEO out the window. They are combining the fundamentals that still work with newer strategies built around AI search visibility, authority, brand mentions, and genuinely useful content.
