What Physical AI and the digitalization of critical infrastructure mean for OT security

AI-enabled systems are becoming more common in operational technology (OT) environments. What many industry analysts call “Physical AI” refers to AI systems embedded in physical environments — such as industrial cameras, robots and edge systems — that can perceive, interpret and act on real-world conditions. In industrial settings, this includes machine vision systems, predictive maintenance models, robotics optimization and edge analytics operating close to production assets.

What NIST's mDL guidance means for the future of digital identity

The latest National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) draft guidance on mobile driver’s licenses(mDLs) is about more than one use case or credential type. While the draft primarily focuses on the financial sector due to its high-assurance requirements, the bigger takeaway is that government-issued identity can be cryptographically verified and shared more selectively.

VENOMOUS#HELPER: Dual-RMM Phishing Campaign Leveraging JWrapper-Packaged SimpleHelp and ScreenConnect for Silent Remote Access

Phishing campaigns leveraging remote management tools is nothing new. Securonix Threat Research has conducted in-depth dynamic analysis of an ongoing phishing campaign targeting multiple vectors, active since at least April 2025. The campaign has impacted over 80 organizations, predominantly in the United States, spanning multiple sectors. This campaign leverages vendor-signed Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) software to establish silent, persistent access.

"Copy Fail" Vulnerability (CVE-2026-31431): Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation

CVE-2026-31431— the “Copy Fail” vulnerability—is a critical local privilege escalation (LPE) flaw in the Linux kernel’s cryptographic subsystem that allows unprivileged users to gain root access with near-perfect reliability. Boasting a CVSS score of 7.8 and affecting nearly every mainstream distribution since 2017 (including Ubuntu, RHEL, and Amazon Linux), Copy Fail has been added to the CISA KEV catalog due to its active exploitation and portable, low-footprint nature.

Maximizing Cybersecurity with SOC Support Consulting: What You Need to Know

As cyber threats continue to grow and become more threatening, it’s important for businesses to implement robust cybersecurity measures. SOC Support Consulting is becoming increasingly important for improving cybersecurity because it equips companies with the knowledge and tools to quickly identify and stop threats. According to Vectra AI, businesses leveraging SOCaaS are likely to detect threats 96% faster compared to those with an in-house SOC.

How to Bridge the Gap Between Your Applicant Tracking and Modern AI Capabilities

Most hiring teams are currently working with software that was built for a different era of technology. These legacy systems are reliable for storing data but they often lack the smart features that modern recruiters need to stay competitive in a fast market. It is a common struggle that leads to frustration.

What Cultural Fit Actually Means When You're Hiring Software Engineers

Most engineering hires don't fall apart because of a skills gap. They fall apart because of a values gap. A developer can breeze through every technical interview, whiteboard, take-home, system design, and the works, and still quietly derail an entire team within a quarter. That's the uncomfortable truth.

7 Best Predictive Maintenance Software for 2026

Here's a number that should stop you cold: unplanned equipment failures cost organizations billions every year, and most teams don't catch the bleeding until it's already serious. I've seen facilities limp through reactive maintenance cycles for years, convinced it was "just how things work." It isn't. Predictive maintenance software has become the clearest answer to that problem, and in 2026, the platforms doing it best are genuinely transforming how asset-heavy operations run.

Dedicated vs VPS: Which One Actually Wins?

Let's be honest - at some point, every growing project hits the same question: *"Do I need a virtual server... or should I go all-in on a dedicated machine?"* Sounds simple, right? But here's the twist - the wrong choice doesn't just slow you down, it quietly eats your money, performance, and nerves. I've seen this dozens of times. A startup overpays for a powerful dedicated server they don't fully use. Or worse - a fast-growing app crashes because a VPS couldn't handle the load. So today, let's break this down like we're discussing it over coffee - clearly, honestly, and without technical noise.
