What’s New in Microsoft Defender: AI Triage, Predictive Hardening, and Call Monitoring — What IT Teams Should Know

Microsoft used RSA 2026 to roll out a wave of Defender enhancements that are already changing how security teams detect, investigate, and respond to risk. The announcements bundle intuitive UX changes—like a consolidated identity dashboard—with more consequential shifts: AI-driven triage and automated hardening that can act proactively on predicted attacker movement. These features promise speed and scale, but they also

Anthropic’s Mythos Rocks Cybersecurity Stocks: What Investors and Defenders Need to Know

Anthropic’s Mythos Rocks Cybersecurity Stocks: What Investors and Defenders Need to Know

News moved fast one Friday: a new, exceptionally powerful AI model from Anthropic—codenamed Mythos—leaked into the market conversation, and the ripple effects were immediate. Stocks tied to cybersecurity fell sharply, reflecting a fresh wave of anxiety: if an AI can find complex code flaws faster than teams of humans, what becomes of the companies that sell digital defenses? This post

AI for Nuclear Energy — Powering an Intelligent, Resilient Future

AI for Nuclear Energy — Powering an Intelligent, Resilient Future

The world’s surge in power demand is colliding with an energy infrastructure that was largely designed for an analog age. Meeting that demand with clean, reliable power requires more than ambition; it requires faster, repeatable delivery of complex projects. Nuclear energy is central to that future, but development timelines, fragmented data, and heavy regulatory processes create persistent bottlenecks. Artificial intelligence,

OpenAI Brings Plugins to Codex, Narrowing the Gap with Claude Code

OpenAI Brings Plugins to Codex, Narrowing the Gap with Claude Code

OpenAI has quietly expanded Codex’s capabilities by adding a plugins system — a move that makes the coding assistant feel less like a standalone tool and more like a configurable platform. On the surface, these plugins are collections that can include workflow “skills,” integrations with external applications, and connections to MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers. For users, the most immediate

Google Says Q-Day Could Arrive by 2029 — Why the Race to Post‑Quantum Cryptography Just Got Real

Google has set a new, sharper deadline for what the industry calls “Q‑Day” — the moment when quantum computers will be powerful enough to break the public-key cryptography that underpins most of today’s secure communications. In a recent post, Google’s security and cryptography leads gave themselves until 2029 to be ready, and urged the rest of the world to accelerate

Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Leak: When Pre-Release Secrets Meet Cybersecurity Risk

Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Leak: When Pre-Release Secrets Meet Cybersecurity Risk

Anthropic recently found itself at the center of an avoidable but consequential security incident: leaked internal drafts revealing the existence of an unreleased, high-capability model called “Claude Mythos.” The exposure—rooted in an unsecured, publicly searchable data cache—pulled back the curtain on product plans, internal risk assessments, and even references to an exclusive executive event. For organizations building powerful AI, the
