Background for this topic.
A report is a documented account of an event, investigation, assessment, or analysis, supported by evidence and presented for others to review. In information security, the term commonly covers incident findings, vulnerability research, threat-intelligence assessments, audit results, and surveys of security practices. A useful report states its scope, methods, evidence, timeframe, and level of confidence rather than presenting conclusions without context.
Reports help practitioners prioritize remediation, validate controls, and improve incident response, but their details require careful interpretation. A vulnerability report should identify affected versions, exploit conditions, and mitigation steps; an incident report should distinguish confirmed facts from assumptions and protect sensitive personal or investigative data. Threat reports may contain indicators of compromise that need verification before being used in detection systems. Reports used for compliance or executive decisions should preserve a clear evidence trail, since incomplete scope, outdated findings, or undisclosed conflicts can lead to misplaced security priorities.
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a new method for exfiltrating sensitive data from artificial intelligence (AI) code execution environments using domain name system (DNS) queries
A majority of security leaders are struggling to defend AI systems with tools and skills that are not fit for the challenge, according to the AI and Adversarial Testing Benchmark Report 2026 from Pentera
Midmarket security leaders aren't as secure as they think, says Intruder's report Partner Content The midmarket matters. JP Morgan estimates approximately 300,000 organizations generating $13T in annual revenue. Yet they occupy an awkward position in the security landscape. They're large enough to be attractive targets with complex digital estates, significant revenue, and valuable data, but not large enough to have the headcount, budget maturity, or tooling sophistication of an enterprise security team.…
