Two reports offer differing viewpoints. One suggests a failure of tools to provide what security teams really need. The other suggests the tools exist but are not properly managed. The industrialization of cybercrime threatens to overwhelm cyber defense. It’s a process that started before the arrival of ChatGPT, was supercharged by the age of AI, and is now typified as the post-Mythos era. It’s a time when defenders must improve their performance or cede the battleground to the adversary. Applications are the battlefield. The speed, scale and sophistication of AI-assisted attacks is difficult to contain.  “AI is not just creating…

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on oversight of artificial intelligence Tuesday, less than two weeks after postponing a White House ceremony over his concerns that a similar policy could dull America’s technological edge. The order establishes a framework for the federal government to vet the national security risks of the most advanced AI systems for up to a month before their public release. Participation by AI developers would be voluntary, the order says. “Advanced AI capabilities make our Nation stronger, but also introduce new national security considerations that require coordinated action across executive departments and agencies,” the order…

A few months ago, I opened one of the formulas in my sales sheet and stared at it for a second too long. It read =G15*0.05. The 0.05 could’ve been a tax rate, a commission, or a number I’d typed in by mistake, and the cell reference told me nothing. Leaning on raw references like that is one of the Excel habits worth unlearning before formulas start breaking on you. Naming the cell changes that. With a single rename, every formula touching it reads in plain words, and the workbook stops feeling like other people’s code. Naming a cell takes…
