The End of the Exploit Window: How Frontier AI Is Changing CVE Prioritization

May 14, 2026 By Emma Stevens In BitSight
When a new vulnerability is announced, the race begins. Security teams jump into action, checking exposure, triaging events, identifying affected systems, and figuring out how quickly they can patch. The clock is ticking and they know it. At the same moment, threat actors are doing their own version of that work. They’re reading the same advisories, watching the same feeds, and asking a much simpler question: Who is still vulnerable?

Six MCP Security Incidents Every Security Leader Should Know

May 13, 2026 By Shane Moosa In UpGuard
In July 2025, an AI agent reviewed a support ticket, queried a production database, and leaked integration tokens directly to the attacker watching the thread.

May 13, 2026 By Omer Carmi In BitSight
No man is an island, entire of itself; Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.– John Donne Let’s face it, we have a gap in our cyber posture.
