Apple on Tuesday revealed a new security feature called Memory Integrity Enforcement (MIE) that’s built into its newly introduced iPhone models, including iPhone 17 and iPhone Air.
MIE, per the tech giant, offers “always-on memory safety protection” across critical attack surfaces such as the kernel and over 70 userland processes without sacrificing device performance by designing its A19 and

The House Select Committee on China has formally issued an advisory warning of an “ongoing” series of highly targeted cyber espionage campaigns linked to the People’s Republic of China (PRC) amid contentious U.S.–China trade talks.
“These campaigns seek to compromise organizations and individuals involved in U.S.-China trade policy and diplomacy, including U.S. government agencies, U.S. business

Introduction
Managed service providers (MSPs) and managed security service providers (MSSPs) are under increasing pressure to deliver strong cybersecurity outcomes in a landscape marked by rising threats and evolving compliance requirements. At the same time, clients want better protection without managing cybersecurity themselves. Service providers must balance these growing demands with the

Threat actors are abusing HTTP client tools like Axios in conjunction with Microsoft’s Direct Send feature to form a “highly efficient attack pipeline” in recent phishing campaigns, according to new findings from ReliaQuest.
“Axios user agent activity surged 241% from June to August 2025, dwarfing the 85% growth of all other flagged user agents combined,” the cybersecurity company said in a

A new Android malware called RatOn has evolved from a basic tool capable of conducting Near Field Communication (NFC) relay attacks to a sophisticated remote access trojan with Automated Transfer System (ATS) capabilities to conduct device fraud.
“RatOn merges traditional overlay attacks with automatic money transfers and NFC relay functionality – making it a uniquely powerful threat,”

⚠️ One click is all it takes.
An engineer spins up an “experimental” AI Agent to test a workflow. A business unit connects to automate reporting. A cloud platform quietly enables a new agent behind the scenes.
Individually, they look harmless. But together, they form an invisible swarm of Shadow AI Agents—operating outside security’s line of sight, tied to identities you don’t even know exist.

Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a phishing campaign that delivers a stealthy banking malware-turned-remote access trojan called MostereRAT.
The phishing attack incorporates a number of advanced evasion techniques to gain complete control over compromised systems, siphon sensitive data, and extend its functionality by serving secondary plugins, Fortinet FortiGuard Labs said.

It’s budget season. Once again, security is being questioned, scrutinized, or deprioritized.
If you’re a CISO or security leader, you’ve likely found yourself explaining why your program matters, why a given tool or headcount is essential, and how the next breach is one blind spot away. But these arguments often fall short unless they’re framed in a way the board can understand and appreciate.

Cybersecurity researchers have detailed a new sophisticated malware campaign that leverages paid ads on search engines like Google to deliver malware to unsuspecting users looking for popular tools like GitHub Desktop.
While malvertising campaigns have become commonplace in recent years, the latest activity gives it a little twist of its own: Embedding a GitHub commit into a page URL containing

Cybersecurity never slows down. Every week brings new threats, new vulnerabilities, and new lessons for defenders. For security and IT teams, the challenge is not just keeping up with the news—it’s knowing which risks matter most right now. That’s what this digest is here for: a clear, simple briefing to help you focus where it counts.
This week, one story stands out above the rest: the
