Untill now, companies have been improvising their own AI governance frameworks. That era is over. ISO has now delivered a global baseline for Responsible AI and Secure AI — and the implications are huge. ISO/IEC 42001 — AI Governance Is Now Auditable
AI agents have rapidly evolved from simple task‑assistants into autonomous systems capable of executing complex workflows, making decisions, and interacting with critical infrastructure. Whether intentionally deployed or introduced through employee‑driven “shadow AI,” these agents now operate across every enterprise environment, often without adequate oversight. This shift has created a new class of cybersecurity risk: agentic threats, where AI systems themselves become the a
AI‑driven cyberattacks in 2026 are defined by autonomous agents, machine‑speed exploitation, and rapid weaponisation of stolen data. Organisations must upgrade their security posture to defend against AI‑accelerated threats. Artificial intelligence is transforming industries at an unprecedented pace — but it’s also transforming the threat landscape. In 2026, attackers began using AI not just as a tool, but as an autonomous offensive capability. The result? Security attacks ar
