Citrix UniconOS dual boot turns Windows endpoints into their own recovery device
Citrix released UniconOS dual boot in Release 7 2607, turning Windows endpoints into self-recovery devices after ransomware, failed updates or OS corruption.
Citrix announced dual boot in UniconOS Release 7 2607, which installs an isolated, hardened recovery environment alongside Windows in a separate partition protected by secure boot. If Windows is unavailable, users reboot into UniconOS and reconnect to applications via Citrix DaaS and SecurAccess with Chrome Enterprise. The capability is aimed at reducing reliance on spare hardware and central reimaging during ransomware or update failures, with automatic enrollment in UniconOS Management for fleet-wide boot policies.

This Key Will Self-Destruct: An Open Standard for Revocable API Keys
SecurityWeek opinion piece proposes ORKS, an open standard adding issuer prefixes, discovery files, and unauthenticated revocation endpoints to make leaked API keys quickly revocable.
The article argues that plain API keys leak frequently yet lack any standardized revocation mechanism, unlike OAuth tokens which gained RFC 7009 revocation in 2013, and that GitHub's Secret Scanning Partner Program solves this only in a proprietary, invite-only way. The author proposes ORKS (Open Revocable Key Standard), with a draft spec on GitHub, built on four parts: keys embedding their issuer domain in a fixed prefix format, a discoverable /.well-known/api-key-config JSON file, unauthenticated revocation by possession of the full key, and declared constraints such as IP allowlists, expiry, scopes, and mTLS. An optional quarantine mode inspired by Toyota's andon cord restricts a reported key to read-only and throttled operation for a default 24-hour window before automatic revocation. The piece frames AI agents as making this urgent, since agents hold many credentials, can exfiltrate them via prompt injection, and can leak secrets into logs at machine speed.

Reflectiz Launches Agentic Pentesting for Websites: Up to 10x Coverage vs Conventional Pentests
Reflectiz launched a multi-agent AI penetration testing platform for websites, claiming up to 10x more coverage than conventional pentests.
Reflectiz, a continuous web exposure management vendor, launched a multi-agent penetration testing platform for websites under a new Offensive Hub. Four specialized agents crawl the site like a real user, fingerprint the stack, run attacks, and independently validate findings to remove false positives. The company claims up to 10x more coverage than conventional pentesting by starting from its pre-existing live model of each site. Findings integrate via REST API, CI/CD triggers and Slack, and the Atlas remediation agent guides fixes.
