Zscaler Agentic SOC combines AI agents with zero trust telemetry
Zscaler launched Agentic SOC, an AI-agent-driven security operations platform combining zero trust telemetry with frontier models from Anthropic and OpenAI.
Zscaler announced Agentic SOC, a security operations platform built around specialized AI agents for triage, root-cause investigation, verdict assignment, and automated threat containment. The platform pairs Zscaler's zero trust telemetry, drawn from roughly 750 billion daily transactions and a large decoy mesh network, with frontier models from Anthropic and OpenAI plus proprietary threat intelligence. It features closed-loop inline remediation that can isolate compromised users, block command-and-control traffic, and cut off lateral movement, alongside a context graph that correlates third-party data. Continuous threat hunting combines AI automation with human experts from Zscaler and Red Canary, and customer Maire Tecnimont is cited as an early adopter.

Rubrik MCP gives AI agents controlled access to security intelligence
Rubrik launched MCP support exposing Rubrik Security Cloud APIs to enterprise AI agents with RBAC, configurable permissions, and OWASP MCP Top 10 guardrails.
Rubrik announced Rubrik MCP (Model Context Protocol), giving organizations' AI agents a secure, programmable path to Rubrik's data, identity, and application intelligence via the Rubrik Security Cloud API schema. Teams can save multi-step recovery or compliance workflows as reusable, deterministic tools, with role-based access control parity and OWASP MCP Top 10 aligned guardrails. Rubrik engineered its agent architecture with Anthropic's teams for multi-step reasoning in incident response, and says Rubrik AI is now trusted by one-third of its global customers.

Hunting Vulnerabilities Using Frontier Models
Okta used frontier AI models GPT-5.5 Cyber and Mythos via OpenAI and Anthropic programs to scan millions of code lines for vulnerabilities.
Okta describes using frontier AI models, including GPT-5.5 Cyber Preview (TAC) and Mythos Preview, through OpenAI's Daybreak Cyber Partner Program and Anthropic's Project Glasswing to hunt vulnerabilities across its product codebase. The team built a custom Python orchestrator with strong isolation, vendor-agnostic model support, and four distinct scanning pipelines executed as isolated Codex or Claude Code sessions with progressive context loading to reduce context bloat. Human experts and AI agents worked both autonomously and in paired hunts, and Okta reports the best results when humans and agents taught each other.

Microsoft Exchange Vulnerability CVE-2026-62911: What Administrators Should Do and How Zscaler Can Help
High-severity authentication bypass CVE-2026-62911 in Exchange Server has public exploit code; about 22,000 servers remain unpatched and internet-exposed.
Microsoft's August 2026 Patch Tuesday fixed CVE-2026-62911 (CVSS 8.0), an authentication bypass affecting Exchange Server 2016, 2019 and Subscription Edition. Successful exploitation lets an attacker with basic privileges take over all mailboxes on the targeted server, including reading and sending email and downloading attachments. As of September 1, Shadowserver identified roughly 22,000 unpatched, internet-exposed Exchange servers, including about 6,200 in the US and 5,100 in Germany. NCSC-NL confirmed working exploit code is publicly available, while CISA has not yet reported exploitation in the wild.

Frontier AI: Vulnerability Management's Systemic Revolution
Opinion: frontier AI like Anthropic's Mythos finds and exploits vulnerabilities at machine speed, forcing vulnerability and patch management programs to overhaul prioritization.
The author argues frontier AI models, exemplified by Anthropic's Mythos, can discover zero-days and chain exploits fast enough to overwhelm traditional vulnerability management. The piece recommends moving beyond CVSS, EPSS and KEV toward exposure management (CTEM) and automated, ring-based patch deployment. It also flags hard trade-offs between patching velocity and uptime requirements that organizations must resolve proactively.

Governments ‘buying time’ in race between innovation, security, national cyber director says
National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross says allied governments are 'buying time' to secure systems as AI advances and exposes chronic cyber hygiene gaps.
Speaking at the Billington CyberSecurity Summit, National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross said the US and allies must balance AI innovation speed with securing systems and keeping the technology from adversaries. He argued AI has not created new cybersecurity problems but surfaced decades-old issues like under-resourced basic cyber hygiene, echoing FBI and CISA officials at the summit. His remarks followed US agencies accusing Chinese AI companies of illegally distilling US frontier models and Anthropic disclosing a fourth AI hacking incident involving one of its models.
