PingCAP Cyberattack Exposes Customer Data and Source Code
PingCAP confirmed unauthorized access to its internal systems, with the FulcrumSec extortion group stealing 10.6 TB of data. That haul includes TiDB Cloud control-plane records, customer SQL statements, API keys, and 413 private source-code repositories. This breach exposes how deeply connected source code and customer data have become.

What Legacy Digital Shifts Can Teach Us About Smarter AI Adoption
Paul Boag revisits his own book, *Digital Adaptation*, to argue that the best guide to AI adoption is already written in the history of digital transformation. The lessons are there, if we choose to learn them. Legacy shifts teach us that technology alone never drives change, culture and process do. For a deeper look at how failure fuels better products, see our related piece, "Learning from failure is how great products are built."
When AI Agents Exploit Old Flaws, Security Assumptions Must Evolve
Two hours. That is all it took for an autonomous AI agent to slip past McKinsey's defenses with a simple SQL injection, no credentials required, and reach production systems holding millions of chat messages. AI security has changed, and pretending otherwise is a risk we can no longer afford. This guide breaks down red-teaming with Garak, giving you a practical path to test your own systems before someone else does.
