With evolving AI threats, traditional defences are no longer enough. Email has long been a point of vulnerability for businesses, but the scale and sophistication of attacks are evolving, posing a greater threat than ever before. Adding to the challenge is AI, which is helping bad actors iterate and improve their attacks at an unprecedented pace. This is no longer a theory — it’s happening right now.  According to Infosecurity Magazine, phishing attacks doubled in […]

Phishing has topped the list of initial attack vectors for the fourth year running, according to the latest edition of IBM’s annual Cost of Data Breach report. According to the newly-published study, phishing and social engineering are becoming more expensive to recover from, trickier to detect, and increasingly augmented by artificial intelligence. Voice and SMS phishing

Cybersecurity investment is increasing. So are incidents, compliance pressures, and demands for accountability. Organizations have more security data than ever before, yet many still struggle to answer fundamental questions: are we secure, are we improving, where should we invest next, and can we prove it? For some, the problem is a lack of strategic security

The AI era is here. Now comes the hard part: how do you see, control, and secure its usage? Employees are using AI tools faster than anyone can track them. Source code, customer records, and financial data flow into apps no one approved. Agents and embedded AI features act without oversight. Security teams frequently cannot

Security teams have a lot coming at them right now. Attacks are moving faster, environments are getting more complex, and many teams are being asked to do more with less. That’s why we’re excited to share that Sophos has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape for Worldwide Managed Detection and Response Services for Midmarket

This year’s data has a few eyebrow-raising departures from the patterns of past State of Ransomware reports. Exploited vulnerabilities lost their three-year grip on the top root-cause spot. Median ransom demands and payments both dropped, yet the average recovery bill still climbed. And small organizations (100-250 employees) are falling further behind their larger peers on

When frontier AI models crossed a new capability threshold towards the end of last year – developing the kind of ability that lets nearly any adversary generate working exploit code, craft convincing social engineering at scale, and chain attacks that cross security product boundaries autonomously – the threat landscape didn’t just evolve. It accelerated into

Sophos has been named a 2026 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Customers’ Choice in the 2026 Gartner® Peer Insights™ Voice of the Customer for Email Security. This marks Sophos’ entry into the report, as well as Sophos’ first ever Customers’ Choice distinction for Email Security. In the report, Sophos has an overall rating of 4.8 out of 5.0,

A research preview of an AI system quietly did something that makes every CISO reconsider their threat model. Without a human directing its steps, this new model identified thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities across every major operating system and browser. Not in years. Not in months. In weeks. That AI was Claude Mythos Preview. And while the

BeyondTrust, the global leader in privilege-centric identity security protecting Paths to Privilege™, today announced an expanded Identity Security Risk Assessment (ISRA), a feature of BeyondTrust Identity Security Insights®. Built around a new five-pillar analysis framework, ISRA now maps the full identity attack surface across human, non-human, and AI identities, enabling teams to discover and act on risk
