We’re also seeing a surge in location-specific toll scams and fake delivery alerts—a reminder that staying ahead of scammers…

Attackers have been exploiting a critical zero-day vulnerability in the Visual Composer component of the SAP NetWeaver application server since early this week. SAP released an out-of-band fix that’s available through its support portal and it should be applied immediately, especially on systems that are directly exposed to the internet. “Unauthenticated attackers can abuse built-in functionality to upload arbitrary files to an SAP NetWeaver instance, which means full remote code execution and total system compromise,”…

Nearly every enterprise is experimenting with AI, but an overwhelming 90% of AI projects never scale beyond the proof-of-concept stage, and more than 97% of organizations experience difficulties demonstrating the business value of generative AI (genAI), according to an Informatica survey.[i] A major reason is that many cautious business leaders treat AI as a source of incremental improvements to existing processes rather than a tool to reshape core business functions. Too often, business leaders underestimate the people, behavior,…

In December of 2024, we published a blog with Anthropic about their totally new spec (back then) to run tools with AI agents: the Model Context Protocol, or MCP. Since then, we’ve seen an explosion in developer appetite to build, share, and run their tools with Agentic AI – all using MCP. We’ve seen new MCP clients pop up, and big players like Google and OpenAI committing to this standard. However, nearly immediately, early growing…

New observations published by Secureworks’ Counter Threat Unit (CTU) have found that law enforcement activity has forced ransomware groups to shift away from the traditional affiliate model, notably used by the infamous LockBit gang. The CTU observed DragonForce and Anubis ransomware operators introducing novel models to attract affiliates and increase profits. DragonForce’s Distributed Model DragonForce, which emerged in August 2023 as a ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) scheme, has recently rebranded itself as a “cartel.” According to Securework’s…

Timely vulnerability remediation is an ongoing challenge for organizations as they struggle to prioritize the exposures that represent the greatest risk to their operations. Existing scoring systems are invaluable but can lack context. Here’s how Tenable’s Vulnerability Watch classification system can help. Background Over the past six years working in Tenable’s research organization, I’ve watched known vulnerabilities and zero-day flaws plague organizations in the immediate aftermath of disclosure or even years afterwards. Following each blog…

The rapid advancement of AI models has created a highly competitive environment where companies are channelling unprecedented resources into AI development. However, the extreme pressure to keep up and innovate…
