A weakness in an old authentication connection between Dropbox and Lenovo allowed an attacker to enter roughly 5,000 Dropbox accounts without obtaining their passwords, according to company notifications. The compromise targeted Lenovo’s email verification process. An unauthorized party could allegedly create a Lenovo ID using another person’s email address, then present that identity to Dropbox as proof that the attacker controlled the corresponding account. Dropbox accepted

Artificial intelligence is making software vulnerabilities easier to find. Fixing them before attackers strike is becoming the harder problem. HeroDevs, a company specializing in commercial support for end-of-life open source software, has joined Akrites, a Linux Foundation-backed initiative designed to coordinate the investigation, remediation, and responsible disclosure of open source security vulnerabilities. Akrites addresses a growing complication in software security. A

Ambient.ai is expanding its AI-powered physical security platform with new agentic monitoring, video management and forensic investigation capabilities designed to help security teams manage sprawling camera networks. The centerpiece is Agentic Video Walls, an AI system that continuously evaluates feeds from every connected camera. Instead of requiring operators to watch a fixed grid of screens, the system selects the most relevant activity across a site every 60 seconds and

Artificial intelligence is spreading through corporate environments faster than security teams can track it, and new research suggests the biggest risks may be hiding outside traditional cybersecurity controls. Fable Security analyzed 90 days of security telemetry covering approximately 290,000 employees across more than 30 organizations during the second quarter of 2026. Its inaugural AI Behavior Index found that 34 percent of workers had a detectable generative AI applicati
