Flock Once Touted Its Cameras as ‘Made in the USA.’ Now It’s Not So Clear

WIRED investigation finds Flock Safety stopped marketing cameras as Made in USA, with imports from Taiwan's Primax Electronics facilities in Thailand.

WIRED reviewed US import records showing Flock has increasingly imported commodity cameras and radar components from Primax Electronics in Thailand. Earlier marketing claimed cameras were manufactured in the United States, with assembly in Atlanta and later contract facilities run by East West Manufacturing and Plexus. Flock says its products are National Defense Authorization Act compliant amid activist backlash, local government pullouts, and possible congressional legislation on license plate readers.

What breach and attack simulation needs to become in the AI era

Picus argues calendar-driven BAS is obsolete as AI compresses exploit timelines, citing 338 million simulations showing 69% prevention and a flat 14% alert score.

In a vendor opinion piece, Picus Security contends that with over 130 CVEs disclosed daily, fewer than 0.5% patched upstream, and disclosure-to-weaponized-exploit timelines near 10 hours, scheduled breach and attack simulation no longer keeps pace. The Picus Blue Report 2026, aggregating 338 million production simulations, found average prevention effectiveness of 69%, 58% of attack actions captured in the SIEM, an unchanged 14% alert score, and detection rule failures driven by performance issues (49%) and silent log collection gaps (41%). Picus proposes agentic BAS as a closed loop—simulate, validate, fix, verify—with AI-built threats and humans at decision gates.

Top 10 Best Endpoint Privilege Management (EPM) Tools in 2026

A 2026 scorecard ranks ten endpoint privilege management tools, led by BeyondTrust, ThreatLocker and Delinea for elevation, coverage and policy depth.

The article ranks ten endpoint privilege management (EPM) tools using weighted criteria covering elevation workflow, platform coverage, policy depth, time-to-value and value. BeyondTrust scored highest overall (8.4) for cross-platform breadth, with ThreatLocker (8.2), Delinea (8.1) and Admin By Request (8.0) highlighted for allowlisting integration, cloud administration and deployment speed respectively. It also notes that Netwrix acquired CoSoSys in 2024, which affects bundling when shortlisting both EPM and device control.

What is Proactive Threat Intelligence? | Recorded Future

Recorded Future publishes a vendor explainer on proactive threat intelligence, arguing external adversary context helps teams act before alerts fire.

Recorded Future published a conceptual blog on proactive threat intelligence, describing how external context on adversaries, infrastructure, stolen credentials, and vulnerability exploitation helps security teams act before intrusions surface internally. The piece outlines a four-step program: defining intelligence requirements, collecting external sources including OSINT and dark web, analyzing relevance to the organization, and driving security actions. Use cases include prioritizing CVEs by real-world exploitation activity and identifying external exposure before it becomes an internal incident.

The 12 Best Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) Solutions, Compared and Priced

An editorial scorecard ranks 12 EDR platforms, with CrowdStrike and SentinelOne tied at 8.6/10 and telemetry retention identified as the hidden cost driver.

An editorial comparison scores twelve EDR platforms on detection, response, analyst burden, pricing transparency, and coverage. CrowdStrike and SentinelOne tie at 8.6/10, with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint close behind at 8.5 and described as effectively free in Microsoft 365 E5 estates. The guide argues that telemetry retention, not per-endpoint price, drives real cost, with fully-priced quotes frequently diverging 2-3x from headline rates. Managed detection offerings, including Cynet's bundled 24/7 SOC, factor into the buyer-fit rankings.

Triage & Response Bottlenecks Eating into MSSP Margins: How to Remove the Friction

ANY.RUN says manual triage bottlenecks erode MSSP margins and promotes its Threat Intelligence Lookup and sandbox to cut Tier 1 workload by up to 20%.

Vendor blog post from ANY.RUN describes recurring MSSP triage and response bottlenecks: manual alert validation, unnecessary Tier 2 escalations, manual handoffs, outdated threat data, and disconnected tools. It cites a healthcare MSSP case study where the Tier 1 closure rate rose from 20% to 70% and false escalations dropped 34% after adopting its tools. The piece claims ANY.RUN can reduce Tier 1 workload by up to 20%, letting MSSPs absorb more clients without proportional headcount growth.
