AIUC Raises $40 Million to Certify Enterprise AI Agents

AIUC raised $40 million in Series A funding led by Ribbit Capital to expand its AIUC-1 standard certifying enterprise AI agents against security risks.

AIUC's Series A, led by Ribbit Capital with participation from First Harmonic, brings the company's total funding to $55 million. Its AIUC-1 standard tests AI agents against roughly 5,000 adversarial scenarios covering jailbreaks, prompt injections, hallucinations, anomalous behavior, and data leaks, with quarterly audits. Certified agents include Cursor, ElevenLabs, Fin, Harvey, KPMG, Lovable, and UiPath; the funds will extend audits, standards, and insurance to frontier models.

Early Anthropic hire, former METR COO have found a way to rein in rogue AI agents

Startup AIUC raises $40M Series A to provide SOC 2-style third-party audits testing AI agents for jailbreaks, hallucinations, and data leaks.

Artificial Intelligence Underwriting Company (AIUC), founded by early Anthropic employee Rune Kvist and former METR COO Rajiv Dattani, announced a $40 million Series A led by Ribbit Capital, bringing total funding to $55 million. Its AIUC-1 standard and testing service runs AI agents through roughly 5,000 tests covering jailbreaks, hallucinations, and data leaks, producing a roughly 100-page audit report verified by humans. Customers include Cursor, Lovable, Harvey, and ElevenLabs.

11 Best Device Control & USB Security Tools Compared (2026): Features & Pricing

2026 comparison of 11 device control and USB security tools ranks CoSoSys Endpoint Protector first for cross-platform control and DLP.

An editorial scorecard evaluates eleven device control and removable-media security tools across granularity, content-aware DLP, cross-platform parity, encryption/shadowing, and value. CoSoSys Endpoint Protector (now part of Netwrix) leads at 4.60 for genuine Windows, macOS, and Linux parity, with Ivanti DeviceLock at 4.25 for the deepest Windows peripheral control and Safetica positioned for SMB and mid-market value. Enterprise content-aware DLP anchors include Symantec (Broadcom), Forcepoint, Digital Guardian (Fortra), and Trellix, with pricing almost always per endpoint.

Suno releases its first AI music model made with record industry help

Suno released its v6 music model family (v6, v6-wild, v6-mini), the first trained with licensed data from Warner Music Group, BMG, and Believe.

Suno's v6 comes in three variants: v6, the more unpredictable v6-wild, and resource-light v6-mini offered free to all users. The model was trained from the ground up on a new dataset including licensed content from Warner Music Group, BMG, and Believe, plus user data, though it is unclear if all dubiously obtained content was excluded. v6 shows dramatically improved genre fidelity, adds plain-language chat editing of individual song elements, multi-element mashups, and prompts based on images, video, or audio. The Verge notes it still cannot produce intentional imperfections like off-key vocals, and v6 starts rolling out now with older models eventually retired.

🔬“We have foundation models for language, not for physics” — Anima Anandkumar, Bren Professor of Computing

Caltech professor Anima Anandkumar discusses Neural Operators and FourCastNet for physics modeling, arguing inductive biases beat pure token scaling.

Anima Anandkumar, Bren Professor at Caltech and co-founder of Accelerated Understanding, describes Fourier Neural Operators that learn in frequency and spherical-harmonic domains to model weather, fusion, and fluid or heat flow. Her team built FourCastNet 3, a global weather model competitive with physics-based simulations that runs on consumer-grade GPUs. She also introduced TorchLean, a framework for writing PyTorch-style networks inside the Lean proof assistant for formal verification, and was appointed to the United Nations Scientific Advisory Board. She argues physical domains resist scaling due to tiny datasets and context lengths in the hundreds of billions, so progress comes from built-in structure and physical priors.

The AI policy window is open. We need to act.

OpenAI calls for mandatory national AI safety regulation and backs four California AI safety bills as capabilities accelerate.

OpenAI argues the rapid pace of AI progress, including signs of AI-accelerated research, requires urgent policy action through mandatory, capability-based national regulation. The company endorses four California bills (SB 813, AB 1405, SB 1119, AB 1864) covering independent safety assessments, AI auditor standards, youth protections, and safeguards against AI-enabled biological threats. It also commits to industry-led frontier standards, international coordination, and strengthening internal safeguards such as universal trajectory monitoring and mandatory alignment-evaluation gates for its Astra model. The post references chief scientist Jakub Pachocki's warning about recursive self-improvement and Greg Brockman's "defenders window" concept.

Cyberattack causes a flight delay? Airlines won’t owe you a hotel or meal

A new DOT rule exempts airlines from providing meal vouchers or hotels for cyberattack-caused delays if carriers comply with applicable cybersecurity regulations.

A Department of Transportation rule published in September 2026 adds "cybersecurity attacks" to a list of 10 "not controllable" flight disruption causes, creating a new delay tracking category and relieving compliant airlines of customer service obligations like meal vouchers and hotels. The rule stems from the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024 and applies only when carriers demonstrate compliance with applicable cybersecurity regulations. Consumer groups reacted cautiously: FlyersRights criticized the lack of public comment, while the National Consumers League saw both certainty benefits and risks from ambiguous wording. The article cites prior aviation incidents including Scattered Spider's airline attacks and the 2024 Collins Aerospace hack that disrupted European flights.
