For operational technology (OT), applying ZT requires careful consideration because OT systems interact ...

This is according to GitGuardian’s latest report, the “State of Secrets Sprawl” paper that was just released. In the research document, the organization said 2025 was the year when AI adoption ...
- AI-generated passwords are a security risk
February 19, 2026
Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to generate your passwords is a bad idea. It’s likely to give that password to a criminal who can then use it in a dictionary attack—which is when an attacker runs through a prepared list of likely passwords (words, phrases, patterns) with automated tools until one of them works, instead of ...
