AI Agent Firewalls Are Becoming Essential: AIR Security Raises $50 Million to Address the Next AI Security Challenge
Artificial intelligence is moving rapidly from experimental technology to an active participant in enterprise operations. AI agents can now interact with applications, browse websites, access files, work with emails, connect to business systems, use external tools, and perform tasks with limited human intervention. This creates significant opportunities for productivity, but it also introduces a new […]
HiddenLayer Raises $100 Million: Why AI Runtime Security Is Becoming an Enterprise Priority
Artificial intelligence is moving beyond traditional applications. Organizations are increasingly deploying AI agents that can make decisions, interact with systems, write and review code, and perform tasks with limited human intervention. As these systems become more autonomous, securing AI only during development is no longer enough. Security must extend into production, where AI agents continuously […]
FBI and CrowdStrike Disrupt 20-Year-Old Sality Botnet: A Major Victory Against Global Cybercrime
Cybersecurity is often described as a continuous battle between defenders and attackers. Occasionally, however, coordinated action by law enforcement and private sector organizations delivers a significant victory that disrupts long-standing criminal infrastructure. A recent multinational operation led by the FBI, the U.S. Department of Justice, CrowdStrike, international law enforcement agencies, and cybersecurity partners successfully disrupted […]

9.5 Million Impacted in Aesto Health Data Breach: A Major Warning About Healthcare Data and Third Party Cloud Security
Healthcare organizations increasingly depend on technology partners to migrate, archive, exchange, and manage sensitive patient information. That reliance can create significant cybersecurity risk when a third party becomes the point of access to protected health information. A recent data breach involving Aesto Health highlights this challenge. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human […]
Ethereum Blockchain Abused in Card Skimming Campaign: A New Warning for E Commerce Security
The cybersecurity landscape continues to change as attackers find new ways to hide malicious infrastructure. A recent Magecart campaign known as HexMage demonstrates just how far this evolution has gone. Instead of relying entirely on conventional command and control servers, attackers are abusing Ethereum smart contracts to help deliver payment skimming code to compromised online […]
Anthropic Pentagon Dispute Highlights the Need for Responsible AI Governance and Supply Chain Security
The growing use of artificial intelligence in national security, government operations, and enterprise environments is creating a new cybersecurity challenge: how should organizations evaluate AI systems when security, safety, ethics, procurement, and governance requirements intersect? A recent federal court ruling involving Anthropic and the U.S. Department of Defense has brought this question into sharp focus. […]
