Cato CTRL has discovered high-severity vulnerabilities in NVIDIA NeMo (CVE-2025-33236 with a CVSS score of 7.8) and Meta PyTorch that turns AI model files into remote code execution (RCE) vectors. The NeMo vulnerability allows RCE by importing a malicious AI model. The NeMo framework silently executes threat actor-controlled code with no warning.

Most organizations have a reasonable handle on their sanctioned SaaS apps. Model Context Protocol - hit 10,000 public servers within a year of launch, with 97 million monthly SDK downloads. None of those numbers capture the servers your developers configured locally. Those don't appear in any registry. They were added at the IDE level, one developer at a time, with no approval step and nothing that touches a central system. That's the inventory problem. It comes before any question of enforcement.

AI agents fall into five foundational categories: simple reflex, model-based reflex, goal-based, utility-based, and learning agents. Each is defined by how much environmental awareness and decision-making complexity the system can handle, from fixed condition-action rules to feedback-driven self-improvement.

A patch management policy is a formal organizational document that defines how software updates are identified, prioritized, tested, and deployed across an organization's systems to address security vulnerabilities that attackers commonly exploit to gain initial access.

This post covers a supply chain attack introducing a capability not seen before: using an AI coding assistant’s own GitHub access to commit malicious code to a corporate repository.

Most security teams treat a high volume of false positives as an analyst problem. Too many alerts, too little time, not enough headcount. So they add analysts, tune a few policies, and move on. That response is understandable, but it misdiagnoses the problem. When data loss prevention (DLP) false positive rates stay high over time, the issue is not a staffing gap. It is a detection accuracy problem, one that sits inside the tool, not the team.

Why do access control challenges exist, despite most companies following it? The gaps could be due to inconsistent permissions, accumulation of accesses, or poor management of user lifecycles. Access control is about governance. It answers two questions: “Who are you?” and “What are you allowed to do?” To add on, in today’s multi-cloud hybrid reality, governance is hard to handle. This isn’t another theoretical deep dive.

As AI systems become more capable and increasingly embedded into business operations, security teams are confronting a familiar challenge in a new form: speed without context. Vulnerability discovery is accelerating toward machine scale, while adversaries continue to adapt in real time. In response, the industry has gravitated toward data‑driven scoring models to help determine what deserves attention first.

Longhorn is a lightweight, distributed block storage system built specifically for Kubernetes. It runs entirely inside your cluster, turning local disks on worker nodes into replicated persistent volumes with no external storage array required. That simplicity is what makes it appealing, especially in the Rancher and SUSE ecosystem where it ships as the default storage option. You get persistent storage that is easy to install, easy to understand, and tightly integrated with the Kubernetes lifecycle.

IT departments frequently face the challenge of doing more with less. You are expected to support complex systems and drive internal projects, leaving little time to focus on delivering true business value. Keeping mission-critical applications and data secure requires constant attention. If your team feels overwhelmed by the daily demands of database management, it is time for a change. We provide a cost-effective way to outsource these routine tasks with our 11:11 Managed DB Services recovery solution.
