EU chief wants joint response to cyberattacks, sabotage

EU Commission President von der Leyen proposed an Emergency Security Protocol letting any member state convene joint responses to cyberattacks and sabotage.

In her State of the Union address, Ursula von der Leyen proposed an Emergency Security Protocol, modeled on NATO Article 4, allowing a single EU member state to summon all 27 governments to coordinate responses to cyberattacks, sabotage, arson, and drone incursions. The proposal is part of a broader European security strategy that includes a European Security Council with partners such as the UK, Canada, Norway, and Ukraine, plus a European Instrument for Strategic Enablers supporting cyber and defense capabilities. She cited rising incidents in Denmark, Lithuania, Poland, and an attempted drone attack in Leipzig, but did not specify whether unanimous decision-making rules would change.

CISA decides weekly vulnerability bulletin isn't necessary anymore

CISA will discontinue its weekly vulnerability bulletin on September 28, pushing users toward KEV, alerts, and CVE data under risk-based prioritization.

CISA announced its weekly vulnerability bulletin will stop on Monday, September 28, as part of a shift from static CVSS severity scores to a modern, risk-based approach detailed in a June Binding Operational Directive. The directive prioritizes federal remediation based on exposure, exploitation evidence, control granted by exploitation, and whether exploitation can be automated. CISA directs bulletin subscribers to rely instead on its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, cybersecurity alerts and advisories, and the CVE catalog, requiring users to enable those subscriptions in GovDelivery or Granicus to avoid missing critical notices.

How workers are unlocking new ways of working

OpenAI's analysis of 1.5 million ChatGPT work messages finds cross-occupation AI tasks becoming recurring parts of workers' routines.

OpenAI's latest Work at the Frontier research analyzed more than 1.5 million work-related ChatGPT messages from April through July 2026. Among roughly 6,200 consistently observed workers, previously used cross-occupation tasks grew from 13.1% of occupation-specific AI activity in April to 25.9% in July. Workers returned to a cross-occupation task used the prior month 23.6% of the time versus an 8.4% baseline, with an average next-month return rate of 18.5%. Recurrence was highest for customer discussions (54%), advertising copy (44%), and marketing materials (37%), suggesting AI may broaden jobs before titles change.
