As enterprises move AI agents and copilots from experimentation into production, security teams face a new problem: understanding whether those systems are behaving as expected. Abnormal AI and OpenAI are partnering to explore that challenge, combining OpenAI’s frontier AI capabilities with Abnormal’s behavioral security technology and enterprise threat-detection expertise. The enterprise AI race is moving…
Security operations centers are entering an awkward phase of the AI transition: they need more automation, but sending every alert through an expensive AI model can create a new cost and governance problem. Swimlane is addressing that tension with an expanded Swimlane AI SOC that dynamically routes security investigations between deterministic automation, AI-assisted analysis and…
The enterprise AI market is moving from experimentation toward production, and the next battleground is increasingly agentic AI: systems that can reason across tasks, use tools and data, and execute multi-step workflows. Artizent, an enterprise engineering company focused on cloud, data, software and AI transformation, says it has earned an AWS AI Services Competency in…
Cloud recovery is becoming less about restoring files and more about rebuilding the application environment that makes those files useful. Commvault is expanding Cloud Rewind to cover more Microsoft Azure resources, adding broader configuration protection, dependency mapping and automated recovery capabilities as enterprises confront increasingly complex cloud infrastructure and longer recovery windows after cyber incidents….
Enterprise AI adoption is increasingly shifting from experimentation to infrastructure. Fractal Analytics has signed a $17 million-plus, multi-year agreement with a U.S. healthcare enterprise to modernize its data and AI foundation on the Databricks platform, while consolidating 24/7 managed data operations under a single strategic partner.
