Apple, Samsung, and Google are all expected to introduce their takes on folding smartphones in the coming weeks. All three competitors work together on some things; Samsung allegedly makes displays for iPhone; Google makes an OS for Samsung; and Apple works with Google Gemini for AI. That proximity suggests that we might experience some synchronicity…
AI will continue to accelerate, but resilience, speed, and proactive defense will stay ahead as this new era unfolds.
Agentic security is quickly becoming one of the biggest conversations in cybersecurity as organizations evaluate how AI agents can automate security operations. The debate is no longer whether AI belongs in the security operations center (SOC), but whether organizations can trust AI agents to make decisions inside production environments. Threat actors have already embraced AI…
Zimperium found RedWing, an Android spyware sold as a service via Telegram to target banking apps
Gmail’s AI failed at a nuanced research task, but Claude Cowork found the right pitches, quotes, and permissions, proving connected AI assistants may finally help tackle some aspects of email overload.
AI coding assistants have a habit of making things up. Ask one to fetch a popular tool, and it will sometimes hand back a real-sounding name for a project that does not exist. New research, which its authors call HalluSquatting, turns that habit into an attack: work out the fake names an AI reliably invents, register…
For decades, cybersecurity has largely been defined by software exploitation. Attackers discovered vulnerabilities in operating systems, web browsers, network protocols, authentication mechanisms, or applications, then abused those weaknesses to gain unauthorized access. Whether exploiting a stack buffer overflow, a race condition, or a misconfigured identity provider, the attacker’s objective was always to violate a technical…
Over a dozen major economies have now published post-quantum cryptography (PQC) adoption guidance. As a CISO, you’re probably well into your migration plan and know the most difficult part has little to do with changing algorithms. The real leadership challenge is driving coordinated change across a large, complex organization where asymmetric cryptography is embedded in…

The developer tools startup said it’s building better infrastructure for a future run by coding agents.
Melbourne, Florida, United States, 8th July 2026, CyberNewswire
A recent EvilTokens campaign targeting businesses across the US and Europe is exposing a new email security blind spot.

New research shows that a signed Git commit’s hash is not the one-of-a-kind name that much of the software world assumes it to be. Given any signed commit, someone without the signing key can mint a second commit with the same files, author, and date, and a valid signature, GitHub still stamps “Verified.” Everything a…
For years, account takeover (ATO) followed a predictable script. Attackers bought stolen credentials in bulk, ran them through automated tools, and waited for matches. Credential stuffing was cheap, scalable, and for defenders, relatively well understood. That era is ending. Not because attackers gave up, but because the front door finally got harder to kick in.…
Accenture appears to have suffered a data breach, the extent of which is currently unknown. On Monday, a threat actor going by the handle “888” posted on the cybercrime forum PwnForums, claiming to have breached the technology consulting company and stolen “just over 35gb of source codes” in July 2026. They claim to have exfiltrated…
Japanese telecommunications giant KDDI says that millions of people had their email addresses and passwords exposed after attackers breached an email platform used by five internet service providers (ISPs) in the country. […]
An AI coding assistant that refuses to answer a dangerous request in its chat box can answer it anyway if the same request is broken into small, ordinary-looking steps inside a code editor. That is the finding of a new study of GitHub Copilot by researchers Abhishek Kumar and Carsten Maple. The models they tested through Copilot,…
Cybersecurity programs often grow over time through new policies, controls, and technologies. The challenge for CISOs is making sure these pieces work together and support the risks that matter most to the business. NIST CSF 2.0 provides a practical structure for doing that.

AI agents can browse the web, use external tools, execute commands, and perform tasks on behalf of users. Many rely on skills that define how they interact with services and data. Malicious skills can abuse those capabilities to steal data, execute malware, or manipulate an agent’s behavior, according to the H1 2026 ESET Threat Report.…
I’ve spent two years doing incident response and threat intel, and the one habit I’d keep if I had to give up every other is also the most boring. I don’t act on a piece of intelligence until I’ve checked it against the thing it claims to describe. It’s slow. It’s tedious. Almost nobody does…
The AI-focused executive order President Donald Trump signed last month gave the Treasury Department, the National Security Agency, and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) 30 days to establish a new “AI cybersecurity clearinghouse.” The deadline passed last week.

Marketing professionals are at risk from a new phishing scam targeting Google accounts; learn how to protect yourself from this growing threat.
Somewhere right now, a Mac Mini is sitting on a shelf doing someone’s chores. Nobody’s watching it. It reads a version number out of Terminal, hops over to Safari, digs up a release year, then quietly files a reminder, the kind of dull three-app errand a human would grumble through in ninety seconds. The machine…
Almost every phone in every pocket can already run two SIMs. Put the spare on a different network, park $20 on a long-expiry plan, and the next time your carrier goes dark you…
Anthropic has found a way to shed new light on how its models solve problems, thanks to its discovery of what it has dubbed the J-space. “We find that Claude has developed a small collection of internal neural patterns that, compared to all its other internal processing, play a special role. We call the collection…
The hard part was never finding the exposure. It was deciding what to do about it: whether to patch, mitigate, monitor, or accept, and banking that that decision would still hold tomorrow. A penetration test answers this question for the day it runs, then quietly expires. The environment shifts, a control drifts, a new technique…
For years, people dismissed video games as a waste of time. Parents complained they were a distraction. Employers worried they were a sign of poor work ethic. Politicians…
Companies are handing routine operational decisions to AI agents that plan, remember, and act on their behalf. These agents run on statistical models, and their behavior can drift across weeks and months. That drift opens a security gap outside the reach of standard monitoring tools. A study of about 1,080 open job postings at OpenAI…
The single job, for a single employer, held for years and traded up one rung at a time, is starting to look like a museum piece to the people entering work right now.
