Cohesity adds recovery capabilities for AI agents and the data they manage
Cohesity launched Agent Resilience to discover, protect, and recover AI agent memory, configuration, and agent-managed data, debuting with Amazon Bedrock integration.
At Cohesity Catalyst, Cohesity introduced Agent Resilience within Cohesity Data Cloud, protecting AI agent memory and configuration with snapshot architecture, immutable backups, and clean-room recovery, plus recovery for databases and file systems that agents manage. It launches with Amazon Bedrock integration, support for Microsoft and Google platforms planned, and general availability targeted for year-end. The company cited Gartner's prediction that up to 40% of enterprise applications will include task-specific agents by 2026, and Cohesity research showing 56% of organizations are unprepared to detect or contain unintended agent actions while 58% lack confidence in verifying AI model integrity after attacks. Cohesity also outlined an Autonomous Cyber Resilience vision using agentic workflows and introduced the AI Resilience Academy.

Attack Chains, Not Just Attack Surfaces: Why Testing Individual Techniques Misses the Point
Filigran introduces Attack Chaining in OpenAEV to continuously simulate multi-stage attack paths, exposing gaps that isolated MITRE ATT&CK technique testing misses.
Filigran announced Attack Chaining, a new scenario type in its OpenAEV platform that links individual techniques into automated, continuously-run multi-stage attack paths, using each step's real output (credentials, tokens, open ports) to branch dynamically toward a final objective. The article cites Filigran's State of Threat Management report, in which 93% of security leaders reported a business-impacting cyberattack in the past 12 months, 88% said AI accelerates attackers, and 84% blamed siloed tools and disconnected testing. The 2025 DGFiP breach is cited as an example where individually survivable weaknesses chained into a major intrusion. The feature includes conditional chaining logic, live attack path mapping, structured findings for identifying chokepoints, and predefined scope and safety guardrails.

OpenSSL’s new alpha build speeds up post-quantum crypto
OpenSSL 4.1.0 alpha1 adds DTLS 1.3 support and speeds up ML-DSA and ML-KEM post-quantum operations across several architectures.
The OpenSSL project released the first alpha of OpenSSL 4.1.0, months before general availability. The build adds DTLS 1.3 (RFC 9147) to secure UDP-based traffic such as VPNs, video calls and IoT, and includes optimized ML-DSA and ML-KEM operations for ppc64le, s390x and x86_64 plus AVX-512 acceleration for SHAKE hashing and AES-CBC decryption. Breaking changes include a new Net::Curl::Easy dependency for tsget, dropped Windows-on-Itanium and Windows CE support, and replacement of the no-ecdsa/no-ecdh Configure options with no-ec. It also adds GREASE support (RFC 8701), a DTLS mode for the SSL listener API, IKEv2 KDF support, and initial Elbrus2000 processor architecture support.

Threat Matrix: Mapping threats across cloud web applications
Microsoft released a Cloud Web Applications Threat Matrix, a MITRE ATT&CK-aligned framework mapping threats to cloud-hosted web apps and serverless platforms.
Microsoft introduced the cloud web applications threat matrix, which organizes attack techniques for cloud-hosted web apps and serverless platforms using MITRE ATT&CK tactics, from resource development through impact. The framework covers attack paths spanning application code, managed runtimes, workload identities, and deployment pipelines, cataloging techniques such as subdomain takeover, code injection in connected repositories, compromised registry images, exposed admin interfaces, and serverless trigger injection. It builds on Microsoft's earlier Kubernetes and storage services matrices to help defenders identify visibility gaps, prioritize hardening, and plan investigations in cloud-native environments.

Proofpoint SOC Analyst Agent Uses OpenAI Cyber Models
Proofpoint launched its SOC Analyst Agent in private preview, using OpenAI Daybreak models to automate security investigations with human-controlled remediation, GA expected end of Q3 2026.
The SOC Analyst Agent uses OpenAI Daybreak cyber models to enable natural-language investigations across Proofpoint alerts, logs, DLP events and user risk signals, and to automate recurring threat hunts, data security investigations and escalation reporting. It is currently in private preview with general availability expected by the end of Q3 2026, and it does not independently make account changes or take remediation actions. Proofpoint joined the OpenAI Daybreak Defense Network in June 2026 and is exploring additional uses for the models in threat research, data security and AI security workflows.

Product showcase: Doppler secures secrets for humans, pipelines, and AI agents
Doppler's secrets management platform centralizes credentials for engineers, CI/CD pipelines, MCP servers, and AI agents with runtime injection and dynamic secrets.
Doppler stores API keys, database URLs, tokens, and certificates in a single control plane and injects them at runtime, replacing .env files for human and machine identities including AI agents. It supports OIDC with short-lived identity tokens for Azure, AWS, and GCP, dynamic secrets scoped and time-boxed to single sessions, SCIM provisioning, 50+ integrations, and an MCP server that lets agents request configurations natively. Permissions are enforced at each layer so raw secrets stay out of logs, prompts, and model context, with versioning, rollback, SIEM log forwarding, and cloud or on-prem deployment.
