Dynamic Roles, Real Security: Why OnDemand Permissions Beat PreDefined Policies

How context‑aware, short‑lived roles eliminate privilege sprawl and accelerate secure engineering without overburdening admins Access management for remote resources has come a long way from VPNs and bastion hosts. The rise of cloud platforms, microservices and remote workforces has driven a shift toward Cloud-native security controls that integrate directly with AWS, Azure, GCP and Kubernetes.

Seemplicity's AI Agents: Clarity

Meet Clarity, the first of Seemplicity’s four new AI Agents transforming how security teams understand and act on vulnerabilities. Instead of cryptic scanner outputs and confusing CVE text, Clarity turns dense technical data into clear, actionable narratives — explaining what happened, why it matters, and how to fix it. With Clarity, you can: Translate vulnerability data into plain language Improve collaboration between security, IT, and engineering Accelerate remediation and reduce exposure fatigue.

Direct vs. Indirect AI Risks: What Security Teams Need to Know #AIsecurity #AppSec #AInative

AI coding assistants don’t just speed up development — they introduce two kinds of risks you can’t afford to ignore. Direct risks: vulnerabilities added straight into generated code. Indirect risks: exposure through how AI tools shape workflows, dependencies, and external connections. Both can create blind spots — and both demand visibility. Watch to learn how recognizing these layers helps secure your AI-driven workflows.

It's time to rethink shadow AI.

It's time to rethink shadow AI. We've been told it's a fringe activity. A risk from rogue employees. Our new research proves that wrong. This is, ironically, no longer a "shadow" problem. It's a universal workflow hiding in plain sight. The question is no longer "how do we stop it?" It's "how do we manage it?" Our new report lands next week with the date you need to start answering that important question.

APT-C-60 Exploits Zero-Day Vulnerabilities: Inside the SpyGlace Loader, COM Hijacking, and C2 Infrastructure

The cyber espionage landscape continues to evolve in sophistication and stealth—and among the more notable actors is APT-C-60. In recent months, this adversary has significantly escalated its tactics by leveraging zero-day vulnerabilities and orchestrating multi-stage campaigns to deploy the SpyGlace back-door.

Microsoft Help Desk Phishing Attempt

I received this email the other day to my personal email account. It is a “Security Alert” from “Microsoft Helpdesk.” Oh, my! Not only is Microsoft holding five emails headed to me, but my “subscription” is expiring on the same day. The “Unsubscribe” link was just a graphic, no URL. The URL to the main button, “Review All Held Messages results” was linked to the following path (shown below): That is clearly not Microsoft or microsoft.com.

LastPass Phishing Campaign Informs Users of Phony Death Notifications

A phishing campaign is targeting LastPass users with phony notifications informing users that someone has notified the company of the user’s death and is trying to gain access to their account. The emails have the subject line, “Legacy Request Opened (URGENT IF YOU ARE NOT DECEASED).” LastPass describes the following attack flow: Notably, the attackers are also calling recipients of the emails and posing as LastPass representatives, adding another layer of legitimacy to the campaign.
