The MSP Cybersecurity Readiness Guide: Turning Security into Growth

MSPs are facing rising client expectations for strong cybersecurity and compliance outcomes, while threats grow more complex and regulatory demands evolve. Meanwhile, clients are increasingly seeking comprehensive protection without taking on the burden of managing security themselves. This shift...

The Death of the Security Checkbox: BAS Is the Power Behind Real Defense

Security doesn't fail at the point of breach. It fails at the point of impact. That line set the tone for this year's Picus Breach and Simulation BAS Summit , where researchers, practitioners, and CISOs all echoed the same theme: cyber defense is no longer about prediction. It's about proof. When...

Adapting Large Language Models to Emerging Cybersecurity Using Retrieval Augmented Generation

Security applications are increasingly relying on large language models LLMs for cyber threat detection; however, their opaque reasoning often limits trust, particularly in decisions that require domain-specific cybersecurity knowledge. Because security threats evolve rapidly, LLMs must not only...

CyberNER: A Harmonized STIX Corpus for Cybersecurity Named Entity Recognition

Extracting structured intelligence via Named Entity Recognition NER is critical for cybersecurity, but the proliferation of datasets with incompatible annotation schemas hinders the development of comprehensive models. While combining these resources is desirable, we empirically demonstrate that...

Preparing for the Digital Battlefield of 2026: Ghost Identities, Poisoned Accounts, & AI Agent Havoc

BeyondTrust's annual cybersecurity predictions point to a year where old defenses will fail quietly, and new attack vectors will surge. Introduction The next major breach won't be a phished password. It will be the result of a massive, unmanaged identity debt. This debt takes many forms: it's the...

Cybersecurity on a budget: Strategies for an economic downturn

During economic uncertainty, businesses face the challenge of maintaining strong cybersecurity while managing tightened budgets. Cyber threats can become more numerous, motivated, and persistent during economic downturns, making the need for resilient, cost-effective security measures critical...

AgentCyTE: Leveraging Agentic AI to Generate Cybersecurity Training and Experimentation Scenarios

Designing realistic and adaptive networked threat scenarios remains a core challenge in cybersecurity research and training, still requiring substantial manual effort. While large language models LLMs show promise for automated synthesis, unconstrained generation often yields configurations that...

A Neuro-Symbolic Multi-Agent Approach to Legal-Cybersecurity Knowledge Integration

The growing intersection of cybersecurity and law creates a complex information space where traditional legal research tools struggle to deal with nuanced connections between cases, statutes, and technical vulnerabilities. This knowledge divide hinders collaboration between legal experts and...

Jailbreak Mimicry: Automated Discovery of Narrative-Based Jailbreaks for Large Language Models

Large language models LLMs remain vulnerable to sophisticated prompt engineering attacks that exploit contextual framing to bypass safety mechanisms, posing significant risks in cybersecurity applications. We introduce Jailbreak Mimicry, a systematic methodology for training compact attacker mode...

Who Coordinates U.S. Cyber Defense? A Co-Authorship Network Analysis of Joint Cybersecurity Advisories (2024--2025)

Cyber threats increasingly demand joint responses, yet the organizational dynamics behind multi-agency cybersecurity collaboration remain poorly understood. Understanding who leads, who bridges, and how agencies coordinate is critical for strengthening both U.S. homeland security and allied defen...

Quantum Autoencoders for Anomaly Detection in Cybersecurity

Anomaly detection in cybersecurity is a challenging task, where normal events far outnumber anomalous ones with new anomalies occurring frequently. Classical autoencoders have been used for anomaly detection, but struggles in data-limited settings which quantum counterparts can potentially...
