Investors poured $140 million into Torq's Series D Round, raising the startup's valuation to $1.2 billion, to bring AI-based "hyper automation" to SOCs.

Dark Reading asked readers whether agentic AI attacks, advanced deepfake threats, board recognition of cyber as a top priority, or password-less technology adoption would be most likely to become a trending reality for 2026.

Security teams need to be thinking about this list of emerging cybersecurity realities to avoid rolling the dice on enterprise security risks (and opportunities).

The Tenable One AI Exposure add-on discovers unsanctioned AI use in the organization and enforces policy compliance with approved tools.

The popular open source AI assistant (aka ClawdBot, MoltBot) has taken off, raising security concerns over its privileged, autonomous control within users' computers.

Advanced persistent threat (APT) groups have deployed new cyber weapons against a variety of targets, highlighting the increasing threats to the region.

Federal agencies will no longer be required to solicit software attestations that they comply with NIST's Secure Software Development Framework (SSDF). What that means long term is unclear.

A new around of vulnerabilities in the popular AI automation platform could let attackers hijack servers and steal credentials, allowing full takeover.

If an attacker splits a malicious prompt into discrete chunks, some large language models (LLMs) will get lost in the details and miss the true intent.

In the latest edition of "Reporters' Notebook," a trio of journalists urge the cybersecurity industry to prioritize patching vulnerabilities, preparing for quantum threats, and refining AI applications,
