According to the latest statistics, Coca-Cola Unit has become the 17th US cyber incident this year. This is a stark reminder that even large organizations are not immune to cyber threats. ...

Every token an LLM API processes has a price tag, on the way in and on the way out. That fact turns “write better prompts” from a productivity tip into a line item. Most organizations treat AI spend as an unavoidable cost of doing business; in practice, a meaningful chunk of it is just badly engineered prompts paying for their own inefficiency. ...

As businesses expand globally, they become increasingly vulnerable to targeted attacks. CISOs should prioritize incident response planning and ensure that board members are informed about potential risks. ...

Every AI model is, at its core, a direct product of its training data. Long before a system answers its first prompt or makes its first real-world prediction, decisions about data collection, sourcing, and processing have already permanently shaped its behavior. ...

In Part 1 we looked at how little organizations actually know about where their AI training data comes from. This time, we look at what happens once that unverified data gets baked directly into a model. ...

So far this series has covered the data going into a model and the technical choices made while training it. Now: what happens when your organization doesn’t build a model at all, but fine-tunes someone else’s. ...

The first four parts of this series covered where AI training data comes from, what gets permanently baked into a model, how training and optimization choices introduce risk, and how fine-tuning inherits all of it. This part covers a harder problem: you often can’t check any of it yourself. ...

This series started with a simple idea: every AI model is a direct product of its training data, and most organizations deploying AI have no real visibility into what that data actually was. Over five parts, we traced that problem from raw data collection all the way through to the documentation that’s supposed to make it transparent. ...

AI adoption in SOCs is largely happening bottom-up. Analysts are finding tools that help them work faster. Engineers are integrating models into pipelines. This is happening whether or not there’s an organizational policy governing it — and in most cases, the policy comes after the adoption, not before. ...

Understanding AI Frameworks and the Risks of Artificial Intelligence A blog post drawing on current frameworks, research, and the MIT AI Risk Repository Introduction Artificial Intelligence is no longer a niche technology. It is embedded in healthcare diagnostics, hiring decisions, financial systems, law enforcement tools, and the everyday software most of us use without a second thought. With that reach comes serious responsibility — and serious risk. Governments, standards bodies, researchers, and international organizations have responded by developing a growing ecosystem of frameworks designed to identify, categorize, and manage those risks. ...
