For years, detection engineering felt like a black art, a chaotic sprawl of UI-driven rules prone to silent failures. That era is over. We're witnessing a fundamental platform shift, bringing the disciplined rigor of software development to the heart of security.
Your AI morning briefing for May 15, 2026 — the top stories you need to know.
Your cloud is a graveyard of forgotten resources, costing you money and opening security holes. Tenable's new agentic AI is here to hunt down these 'zombie' assets and bring order.
The digital battlefield just got a fresh entry. CISA has flagged a critical Cisco SD-WAN flaw, turning up the heat on network security administrators.
A fresh vulnerability, dubbed Fragnesia, has surfaced in the Linux kernel, allowing local attackers to escalate privileges to root. This isn't just a theoretical threat; a proof-of-concept is already out there.
SecurityScorecard just swallowed Driftnet, a move signaling an aggressive push to fortify defenses against the ever-growing threat of supply-chain attacks.
Cisco is sounding the alarm: a critical authentication bypass flaw in their Catalyst SD-WAN Controller has been exploited in the wild. Attackers are using this zero-day vulnerability to gain administrative access, a serious breach that demands immediate attention.

This incident, while seemingly minor on its face, throws a rather large wrench into the narrative of increasingly fortified digital infrastructure.
At Pwn2Own Berlin 2026, a brutal demonstration of security researcher prowess unfolded, with $523,000 awarded for exploiting 24 unique zero-days. The biggest scalp? Microsoft Edge.
Centralized network control, designed for efficiency, has inadvertently created the ultimate honeypot for attackers. A new Cisco SD-WAN vulnerability serves as a stark reminder of this paradox.
Forget movie-style truck hijackings. The new frontier of cargo crime is digital, employing the very same playbook as sophisticated ransomware gangs. Millions in goods are vanishing.
Eighteen years. That's how long a critical flaw sat hidden in NGINX, the web server powering a third of the internet. Discovered recently, this vulnerability can be exploited for serious damage, from crashing servers to executing arbitrary code.
The persistent Belarus-aligned Ghostwriter threat group has escalated its operations, now employing geofenced PDF phishing targeting Ukraine's government. This sophisticated approach aims to evade detection and deploy potent malware.
