- [Reco] Agent Security. Reco added new Agent Security capabilities to its platform, for discovering, prioritizing, and remediating agent risk. Reco Agent Security gives security teams visibility and control across the environments where AI agents operate. Built on the Reco Graph, used by Fortune 500 organizations to map and monitor enterprise interactions, Reco discovers every agent, maps what it can reach, prioritizes risk based on real operating context and enables precise remediation before autonomous action can expose data, trigger unintended use or disrupt business operations … Reco maps every agent across identity, permissions, connectivity and activity to show what the agent is, who owns it, how it behaves and what it can reach. This enables security teams to answer not just what an agent “did” do, but what an agent “can” do. Available immediately. Reco
- [Radware] Partnership with Dataiku. Radware is partnering with Dataiku, for enhanced monitoring, inspection, and control over AI-driven actions. The collaboration brings Radware’s AI guardian agent services into AI initiatives earlier, expanding beyond traditional security budgets and creating new entry points into enterprise stakeholders, including security and risk teams. Dataiku’s governance and orchestration layer gives Radware a natural entry point into the enterprise. This broadens Radware’s participation in enterprise technology investments while extending Dataiku’s platform with security capabilities designed for production-scale AI deployments. Radware
- [Cobalt] Efficacy of automated pentesting. New research from Cobalt finds that more organizations are rejecting fully automated AI-based pentesting approaches. The percentage of organizations that rely entirely on AI automation for testing needs plummeted from 29% to 9% from last year, with 47% now preferring a hybrid testing model. The 22 point surge in support for the hybrid model, where human expertise supports AI testing, stems directly from the 78% of organizations that experienced fully automated scanning tools missing critical vulnerabilities and returning false negatives. Despite these gaps, security teams show an increasing willingness to automate testing for non-critical assets, with the share favoring automation for low-risk environments rising 22 points to 47%.

- [RPost] RPostONE announced. RPost announced its new integrated platform for email encryption, digital signature workflows, and more. With RPostONE, users can work securely where communications already happen – inside the Microsoft Outlook Compose pane. They can also access the RPostONE Hub for sending, managing, monitoring, and controlling secure content workflows, or connect RPostONE to AI assistants and agents through RPost’s MCP Connector. On the Outlook add-in: users can send encrypted email, prove delivery, share large files securely, request eSignatures, protect documents, clean metadata, and activate AI-powered PRE-Crime protections without changing how they work.

- [AegisAI] Shadow AI and SaaS discovery within email. AegisAI extended its AI agents for email to detect the use of shadow AI and shadow SaaS app usage, by reasoning over contents in the inbox. Every app announces itself in the inbox: a welcome email, a receipt, a “document shared with you.” Our agents already read that mail to stop phishing and malware, so they already hold the ground truth of every app every employee touched. Pointing that same reasoning at SaaS and AI takes nothing new to deploy. And because the agents already understand your organization, discovery comes with context a scanner can’t reconstruct. AegisAI
- [Entrust] Biometric authentication. Entrust added new biometric capabilities for identity-centric assurance / verification at high-risk moments, e.g., account recovery, device changes, large transactions. Focus is confirming the person behind the interaction request, with biometric options including passkey, face, and motion (for deepfake detection). The Entrust Biometric Authentication solution meets this challenge with identity assurance that combines biometric identity verification with adaptive risk-based authentication. This provides a crucial check against presentation, injection, and deepfake attacks by requiring identity assurance at key moments like onboarding, account recovery, device changes, and large transactions.
