A new cybersecurity startup is betting that the next phase of digital defense will be driven by autonomous AI systems rather than human analysts managing endless security alerts. San Jose based startup Kai announced it has raised $125 million in funding and is emerging from stealth with an agentic AI platform designed to operate cybersecurity defenses at machine speed. The round was led by Evolution Equity Partners with participation from N47 and other strategic investors. T

Open source software powers nearly every modern application. From small startups to global enterprises, developers rely on open source libraries to build products faster and reduce development costs. But security researchers say that same ecosystem is now one of the largest and fastest growing sources of risk in the software supply chain. Industry data from Secure shows that more than 84 percent of codebases contain at least one open source vulnerability. On average, applica

Cybersecurity leaders are under pressure to respond faster to breaches while navigating rising regulatory scrutiny, insurance requirements, and reputational risk. In response to those challenges, managed security provider LevelBlue has launched a new service designed to shift incident response from a reactive service into a continuous readiness model. Announced this week, the company’s new Resilience Retainer aims to give organizations faster access to incident response spe

Americans received slightly fewer robocalls in February 2026, but the volume remains staggering. New data from the Robocall Index released by robocall blocking service YouMail shows that more than 3.8 billion automated calls reached U.S. consumers during the month. The figure represents a 1.3 percent drop compared with January 2026 and a 14 percent decline compared with February 2025, signaling a broader downward trend in robocall activity. Even with the decline, the scale r

Enterprise leaders increasingly say their organizations are ready for artificial intelligence. The engineers responsible for securing the software behind those systems often disagree. A new research report from Manifest , a platform focused on software and AI supply chain security, highlights a growing divide between executive perception and operational reality. The study, titled Beyond the Black Box: How AI Is Forcing a Rethink of the Software Supply Chain , finds that 80 pe

The rapid rise of AI-assisted software development has reshaped how developers build applications. But as the ecosystem around large language models expands, security researchers are warning that some of the tools powering this new generation of development may be moving faster than their security architecture can keep up. New research from Immersive highlights a remote code execution vulnerability in the open source AI orchestration platform exo , a tool designed to distribu
