The cyber talent shortage? Job postings just hit a four-year low

🚨 Cybersecurity job market cooling: US postings hit 4-year low in 2026 with 235,786 openings—26.4% down YoY. Major shift happening: GRC roles surging (14.8% of postings, up from 9.4%), while technical defense roles declining (47.1% to 41.5%). CISO hiring volatile due to exec turnover. AI security roles rising. Risk management now prioritized over pure defense.

Kiteworks CISO: Why We Shut Down Systems Before Finding Vulnerability

Kiteworks shut down systems after federal cyberattack warnings, discovering a critical vulnerability without evidence of breach. While this proactive move protected data, experts warn other vendors may hesitate due to SLA penalties & customer backlash. Key takeaway: Companies need pre-planned crisis protocols, leadership buy-in, and balanced risk assessments to respond quickly to threats without full shutdowns.

Spend vs. debt: what's the bigger security risk?

More cybersecurity spending doesn't mean better security. Organizations accumulate "security debt" through complexity & unnecessary controls, increasing fragility. Experts advocate for automation & tool integration over adding more layers. Real risk management measures resilience, not just compliance. CISOs must communicate cyber threats in business terms—revenue impact, recovery ability—to engage boards effectively. 🔒

Here, Joan Goodchild from CSO speaks with veteran CISO Selim Aissi about security debt and why it may be a more meaningful measure of cyber risk than security budget size alone.

Cybersecurity is a leadership problem: Why the management model needs to catch up

Cybersecurity fails when treated as just a tech problem. The real issue? Leadership. CISOs can't do it alone—organizations need clear accountability, cross-level collaboration, and board involvement. Better tools mean nothing without proper governance and sustained management discipline. It's time to break the cycle.

Plex shipped fixes in 1.43.3 by Sep 1, yet one researcher's honeypot running a vulnerable version was exploited on Oct 17, a day after the Plex2Shell chain (CVE-2026-96652, -96654, -96655, -96656) went public. He saw an XMRig miner and a proxy tool dropped. Plex's Sep 1 notice listed no CVEs, and Plex did not immediately respond to Ars Technica.
