> TODAY'S SUMMARY (12 articles)
Today's cybersecurity landscape reveals several significant threats and trends. The newly identified "sshole" vulnerability (CVE-2026-123158) is leading to an uptick in exploitation attempts, particularly observed through honeypot data. Additionally, a major data breach at Japanese manufacturer Iris Ohyama has compromised the personal information of approximately 7.7 million customers. On the malware front, an unknown advanced persistent threat (APT) is utilizing NetamLoader to target Windows 10 systems. In a notable incident, attackers exploited a third-party service provider to steal up to $133 million from French Bank Crédit Mutuel Arkéa. Meanwhile, law enforcement has arrested three suspects linked to the DataSuckers hacking group, which previously targeted Dodo Pizza. The evolving role of AI in cybersecurity continues to be highlighted as companies seek to bolster defenses against these increasing threats.

OWASP’s new Agentic Research Council will aim to connect academic work to operational realities on agentic AI security
AI agents run across many platforms, and each one needs a way to locate and confirm the identity of the others it works with. The Linux Foundation’s DNS-AID project gives them that capability through the Domain Name System, the same address lookup system that has directed internet traffic for decade...
Asimily has launched Segmentation Orchestration, enabling connected-device risk intelligence to flow directly into enforceable network policy without manual translation. No other platform combines full asset visibility, vulnerability prioritization, and segmentation orchestration in a single system....
In January 2026, the automotive research and car-shopping platform Edmunds was listed by the ShinyHunters hacking group as having been breached. Data purportedly obtained in the incident was later published publicly and included 178k unique email addresses, usernames, passwords, IP addresses, phone...
The Pentagon confirmed adversaries are using commercial location data to track U.S. troops, exposing risks tied to smartphones and ad-tech networks. For years, security researchers, privacy advocates, and intelligence analysts have been warning about the same thing: smartphone location data isn’t ju...

CISOs acknowledge that no organization is completely safe, but many also admit their security measures aren’t where they’d like them to be.
One-third of CISOs surveyed for Proofpoint’s 2025 Voice of the CISO Report said the data within their organization is not adequately p...
Kaspersky experts are studying the full end-to-end reality of messaging-based scams to understand the extent of the losses, how quickly harm occurs, how they impact trust, and what remains after an interaction ends. They also shared statistics and advice on how to avoid falling victim to scam scheme...

In this interview with Help Net Security, Avani Desai, CEO at Schellman, talks about the gap between what organizations think they know about their data and what discovery scans turn up. She shares stories of shadow data in abandoned cloud storage, post-merger surprises where duplicated datasets slo...
Cybersecurity governance in the EU is shifting under expanding frameworks such as NIS2 and DORA, while AI raises new questions for security teams. What the future brings is hard to predict, and organizations must find a way to cope. Antonija Vojnović, Governance, Risk and Compliance Department Manag...
AI agents keep memory across sessions. Conversation history, vector stores, scratchpads, and RAG indexes persist between runs, and anything written into that store becomes a privileged input the agent reads back later. An attacker who plants text in the wrong field can override an agent’s instructio...
In this Help Net Security video, Alan Snyder, CEO at NowSecure, talks about governing shadow AI without stopping innovation. He frames the problem as two opposing forces. Companies need to adopt AI fast because attackers and competitors will outpace them otherwise, but they also need to do it safely...
