Entrust turns cryptographic inventory data into security action
Entrust adds CBOM import/export, Ansible automation, and post-quantum readiness features to its Cryptographic Security Platform.
Entrust announced new capabilities for its Cryptographic Security Platform, including CBOM import/export to build cryptographic inventories, correlate assets and dependencies, and prioritize remediation of noncompliant or vulnerable crypto. New Ansible-based automation extends certificate lifecycle management across public and private PKI, while composite algorithm and SPIRE-based capabilities support phased post-quantum migration and trusted identities for AI agents. The platform is now deployable as-a-service or on-premises, aligning with DORA, NIS2, and recent U.S. post-quantum requirements.

Security Data Isn’t the Problem. Security Context Is.
Horizon3 blog argues security context, not data volume, is the SOC bottleneck, promoting its NodeZero integration with CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM.
Horizon3.ai published a vendor blog explaining how its NodeZero Proactive Security Platform integration with CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM brings validated exposure findings into existing security operations workflows. The post argues SOCs are now limited by confidence rather than visibility, needing context to decide which issues matter. It cites a global chemical manufacturer that validated exploitable exposures with NodeZero before completing a $2 billion merger.

Searchlight Cyber combines exposure and threat intelligence in new PTEM platform
Searchlight Cyber launched its PTEM platform, merging exposure management from Assetnote with dark web threat intelligence to prioritize likely-exploited exposures.
Searchlight Cyber launched its Preemptive Threat Exposure Management (PTEM) platform, unifying Searchlight Exposure (formerly Assetnote) with Searchlight Threat, which consolidates the Cerberus investigations platform and DarkIQ dark web monitoring. The platform pairs continuous attack surface discovery and exploitability validation with attacker intelligence from the open, deep and dark web to help teams prioritize the exposures most likely to be exploited. The launch follows the 2025 Assetnote acquisition and a new corporate identity, and cites a Gartner forecast that preemptive security will reach 50% of IT security spending by 2030.

Recorded Future Announces Automated Signature Creation, Accelerating Vulnerability Prioritization
Recorded Future launched Automated Signature Creation in ASI, turning new CVEs into deployable detection signatures in as little as 31 minutes.
Recorded Future announced Automated Signature Creation within its Attack Surface Intelligence product, autonomously generating production-ready detection signatures for newly surfaced vulnerabilities in as little as 31 minutes. The platform correlates an organization's internet-facing assets, live threat activity (malware, ransomware, actor intent), and vulnerability intelligence to prioritize which CVEs warrant detection. The company reports a tenfold increase in in-platform signatures and maps the capability to the four prioritization criteria in CISA's June 2026 directive on risk-based vulnerability mitigation.
