At CrowdStrike Fal.Con 2025, Salt Security announced the industry’s first solution to secure the actions AI agents take in the enterprise. As large organisations adopt agentic AI, agents are increasingly making real-time API calls through protocols like MCP and A2A, creating a new layer of risk. Salt is the first to converge API and AI security, giving organisations visibility into every agent-driven action, governance to enforce the right posture, and real-time protection against AI agent...

Nagomi Security has announced the next step in its platform evolution with Nagomi Control, a new release that redefines Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) by enabling security teams to shift from identifying exposures to fixing them.

A recent report from Check Point Research uncovered Zipline, a phishing campaign that fuses subtle, patient social engineering with stealthy in-memory malware, together enabling attackers to slip past traditional defences and manipulate human behaviour on a wide scale. ​ How did they do it, and who was targeted? ​ A typical phishing attack relies on unsolicited emails, but Zipline, on the other hand, flipped the script completely. The attackers instead used a company's own “Contact...

Q: Can you share how you got to where you are today in your career? A: My journey into cybersecurity leadership wasn’t a direct path, but each role I took along the way helped shape where I am today.

In a cloud-native world, your network is no longer your perimeter; identity is.   Every user, workload and service account is an entry point. And every entry point has permissions. The problem? Most of those permissions are excessive, unnecessary or never revoked.   In fact, according to Tenable research, more than 90% of cloud identities use less than 5% of their permissions. That’s not just an inefficiency, it’s a risk. And, as organisations scale across AWS,...

The programme paints a stark picture, one that is echoed in supporting commentary from both the UK’s National Cyber Security Centre...

The UK's public sector is under siege. Not by visible enemies, but by a wave of cyber threats. In 2024, the National Cyber Security Centre reported a 16% increase in serious attacks impacting national security. These aren't theoretical risks. They are real, growing, and increasingly sophisticated ranging from ransomware attacks shutting down local councils to state-sponsored attacks probing NHS infrastructure. This rise in hostile activity has prompted urgent legislative attention. The UK government’s forthcoming Cyber...
