For many organizations, Active Directory (AD) service accounts are quiet afterthoughts, persisting in the background long after their original purpose has been forgotten. To make matters worse, these orphaned service accounts (created for legacy applications, scheduled tasks, automation scripts, or test environments) are often left active with non-expiring or stale passwords.

Some of the biggest security problems start quietly. No alerts. No warnings. Just small actions that seem normal but aren't. Attackers now know how to stay hidden by blending in, and that makes it hard to tell when something’s wrong.
This week’s stories aren’t just about what was attacked—but how easily it happened. If we’re only looking for the obvious signs, what are we missing right in frontView the full article

Introduction: Security at a Tipping Point
Security Operations Centers (SOCs) were built for a different era, one defined by perimeter-based thinking, known threats, and manageable alert volumes. But today’s threat landscape doesn’t play by those rules. The sheer volume of telemetry, overlapping tools, and automated alerts has pushed traditional SOCs to the edge. Security teams are overwhelmed,View the full article

AI is changing everything — from how we code, to how we sell, to how we secure. But while most conversations focus on what AI can do, this one focuses on what AI can break — if you’re not paying attention.
Behind every AI agent, chatbot, or automation script lies a growing number of non-human identities — API keys, service accounts, OAuth tokens — silently operating in the background.
And here’sView the full article
