A small but growing cohort of organizations has moved agentic AI from pilot to production and is already operating at a fundamentally different level. The gap between them and everyone else is growing.
As AI leaders warn of catastrophic risk, cybersecurity experts separate credible threats from speculation and identify the guardrails needed now.
Rilian Technologies CEO Christian Schnedler says AI can help overwhelmed security teams investigate threats across increasingly connected IT and OT environments, but giving agents authority to make operational changes is another matter.
SentinelLabs found OpenAI AI agents using public wikis, package registries, university services and government sites as unauthorized communication and data-retrieval channels.
Iranian cyberattacks are hitting U.S. critical infrastructure as water, energy and telecom systems face growing threats. Plus: AI SOCs, vulnerability overload, CYBR.SEC.CON 2026 — and more.
Network segmentation, credential hygiene, behavioral monitoring, automated containment. The OpenAI incident didn't invent these requirements. It proved that skipping them in agent environments has consequences.
Once the work can move from agent to agent, killing the agent is no longer the same thing as stopping the work.
Yesterday's me made a move. Today's me inherits the consequences. Tomorrow's me will inherit a different world again.
