SonicWall has issued urgent patches for seven vulnerabilities in its firewalls, with five allowing unauthenticated remote accessâan indication of increasing risks to network security. Meanwhile, Microsoftâs email security filters are mistakenly blocking legitimate business communications, raising concerns about the reliability of automated security measures. Lastly, Anthropic's advanced bug-finding tool, Mythos, will be integrated into Cisco and IBM products, enhancing enterprise security capabilities without exposing the underlying model.
