The Latest Cybersecurity News & Insights From Around The World
Are banks ready for AI-powered cyber threats?
A recent American Banker article, “Knock on wood: Are banks doing enough to cope with Mythos?” raises a timely and uncomfortable question about advanced AI models like Anthropic’s Claude Mythos. As highlighted in the article, INETCO CEO Bijan Sanii points out a critical truth: The conversation is being fueled by the emergence of AI technology capable of identifying software vulnerabilities at a speed and scale that was previously unimaginable.
The DEA telehealth extension: how to prepare for new patient identity verification requirements
On December 31, 2025, the DEA issued its fourth temporary extension of the COVID-era telemedicine flexibilities, keeping the current rules in place through December 31, 2026. For telehealth companies prescribing controlled substances, the extension was welcome news.
Stop Blaming AI for Bad System Design | Fix MCP Security
Every few weeks, a new story surfaces: an AI agent deletes a production database, an autonomous coding tool racks up a five-figure cloud bill, or a chatbot exfiltrates internal documents through a prompt injection attack. The reaction is predictable. “AI is dangerous.” “LLMs can’t be trusted.” “We need better guardrails on the model.” But if you look at the root cause of these incidents, the model is rarely the problem. The system around it is.
Mac patch management: The realities of macOS patching
Mac patch management is the process of identifying, testing, and deploying software updates across macOS endpoints and third-party applications to reduce the window of exposure before attackers can exploit known vulnerabilities. It's a foundational practice within any enterprise cybersecurity program, particularly as Mac adoption in corporate environments continues to grow.
Stablecoin Payments in APAC: What Institutions Need to Know
Stablecoin transaction volumes have hit $33 trillion. Hong Kong just issued its first stablecoin licenses. In this panel from Fintech Fireside Asia, leaders from Fireblocks, Coinbase, FOMO Pay, and AWS break down what's actually happening on the ground across APAC: real use cases, shifting risk models, and where institutional adoption goes next. Panelists: Dan Sleep, Head of Business Solutions, APAC, Fireblocks Hassan Ahmed, Country Director Singapore, Coinbase Zack Yang, Co-founder, FOMO Pay Naveen Gupta, Head of Business Development, Payments, APJ Leader, AWS.
Key PCI DSS Controls You Must Build For 2026
PCI DSS controls are no longer just a compliance checkbox — they’re a mandatory security baseline that stands between your customers’ card data and sophisticated cybercriminals who are faster, smarter, and better-funded than ever before. According to the Nilson Report, global card fraud losses exceeded $33 billion in 2022 and are projected to surpass $38 billion by 2027.
What's happening to DevOps Security?
As 2026 rolls on, our capacity to prompt ourselves silly appears to be limitless. We’ve already seen the financial, legal, and reputational damage to Deloitte as they partly refunded the Australian government for a 237-page audit report containing LLM-generated hallucinations like fabricated academic references, fake footnotes, and a false quote attributed to a judge.
AI Agents in the Cloud: A Risk Management Framework for Security Leaders
Your risk committee meets Thursday. The agenda has a new item: AI agent risk posture. You open the register. The fraud detection agent shipped in March is on it. So is the customer service agent. Neither row is useful — “likelihood: medium, impact: high, control: service account scoped via IAM.” Three months ago that was approximately right. Last week the platform team added two MCP connections, the model was upgraded, and the agent now touches data classes the entry never anticipated.
Why Editing IAM Policies Won't Fix Your AI Agent Identity Problem
Editing IAM policies cannot fix the most common architectural mistake in shipping AI agents on Kubernetes. It happens in thirty seconds: a platform engineer reuses an existing ServiceAccount with an IRSA annotation for Bedrock access because creating a new one takes thirty minutes plus a Terraform pull request. The new agent ships under the existing identity.
