💡 Marcus’s Take

Long weekends are never quiet. Today’s intel shows a disturbing trend: automation and AI are accelerating the attack chain. We’re seeing AI agents running full ransomware campaigns, not just providing tools. Coupled with rapid exploitation of newly disclosed perimeter vulnerabilities like CitrixBleed, the window to react is shrinking to zero. Prioritize patching critical internet-facing systems immediately. And for God’s sake, if you’re using AI agents, treat their inputs and outputs like untrusted network traffic. The compliance checkbox won’t save you when an AI agent decides to encrypt your database.
