DoD paused CMMC Phase II third-party audits for self-attestation. Zero trust's still right — but we just watched self-reporting fail in federal healthcare fraud. Who watches the watchers? securityboulevard.com/2026/0…

"Air-gapped" isn't a defense — it's an assumption. TrojPix turns an HDMI cable into a covert radio transmitter, exfiltrating data at 8.1 Mbps with zero network footprint. Your EDR, DLP, and SIEM never see it leave. The only lever left: Zero Trust. My analysis: securityboulevard.com/2026/0…

100% GPU utilization. 60% of cycles wasted on recomputation. @Solidigm and @MinIO showed at #AIIFD5 why that's an architecture problem — and what the fix actually looks like. paradigmtechnica.com/2026/07…

Recovery and trustworthiness aren't the same thing. @Commvault made that distinction the centerpiece of their #AIIFD5 presentation — and it reframes how enterprises should think about AI resilience entirely. paradigmtechnica.com/2026/07…

The file system isn't passive infrastructure anymore. @CTERA made that case precisely at #AIIFD5 — and the argument lands hard for anyone deploying agents at scale. paradigmtechnica.com/2026/06…

5–10% GPU utilization. The model's fine. The storage layer is the problem. @Scality's ADI presentation at #AIIFD5 was a precise systems-level diagnosis of enterprise AI's real bottleneck. paradigmtechnica.com/2026/06…

Vuln exploitation just overtook credential abuse in the 2026 DBIR. So the password is dead? 86,000 cracked Fortinet credentials in FortiBleed say otherwise—no zero-day needed. A ranking change isn't a risk change. My case for going passwordless: securityboulevard.com/2026/0…

Govts worldwide are catching a bad case of VC envy—and Sen. Sanders just made it policy. Seizing 50% of AI companies wouldn't democratize AI. It would lobotomize it. Government's job is to build the conditions for business to thrive, not to confiscate the upside. wp.me/p91vu9-8OYo

NIST just advanced 9 candidates to Round 3 of its additional PQC digital signatures process. Four mathematical families. Two-year timeline. And a hard lesson from SIKE and Rainbow: cryptographic monoculture is a systemic risk. My analysis on Security Boulevard: securityboulevard.com/2026/0…

Before your next PAM or IGA investment, do you actually know what you're protecting? @SPHERETechSol is building the identity hygiene layer the industry has been missing. My RSAC 2026 Vendor Spotlight: paradigmtechnica.com/2026/05…

The U.S. just committed $2B to quantum computing via the CHIPS Act — and took equity stakes in all 9 recipients. @IBM, D-Wave, Rigetti, Quantinuum & more. Shor's algorithm started a clock. Washington is racing to answer it. securityboulevard.com/2026/0…

The unsolved problem in container security isn't detection — it's the 80-day gap between a published fix and when your engineers can use it. My RSAC Vendor Spotlight on Echo.AI paradigmtechnica.com/2026/05… #DevSecOps #RSAC2026

One government agency. 11 PAM platforms. That's not a security strategy—it's a liability. @KeeperSecurity is making the case for consolidation, and it's compelling. My RSAC 2026 Vendor Spotlight: paradigmtechnica.com/2026/05… #PAM #IdentitySecurity

AI coding agents are pulling open source packages faster than any developer can audit them. @ActiveState is building the answer — a curated, hermetically sealed catalog of verified components. My RSAC 2026 Vendor Spotlight: paradigmtechnica.com/2026/05…

92% of security teams are confident in detection. 70% still have vulns hitting production. The gap isn't the scanner — it's everything after. My RSAC Vendor Spotlight on @code_armor and why the control plane wins. paradigmtechnica.com/2026/05…
