Cynomi delivers largest platform expansion in company history, bringing continuous security governance to MSPs at scale
New vulnerability management integrations and capabilities create a continuous workflow from findings to remediation and compliance, helping MSPs scale vCISO and cyber advisory services across every client.
Key quote from the press release:
“MSPs don’t need more security tools, they need a way to scale security outcomes across hundreds of client environments. This release brings together integrations, automation, compliance management, and AI-powered execution into a single platform that helps partners operate continuous security programs at scale. By reducing manual effort and turning security data into actionable outcomes, we’re helping service providers improve client results, increase operational efficiency, and grow cybersecurity revenue.” — David Primor, co-founder and CEO, Cynomi
SuperOps and Guardz declare the end of the fragmented MSP stack
The strategic partnership bundles PSA, RMM, MDM and agentic SecOps into a single offering, giving MSPs a connected foundation for operations, security and AI readiness.
Key quote from the press release:
“For years, IT operations and security were separate conversations. AI collapsed the line between them. You can’t safely adopt AI on top of data and identities you can’t see or protect, and customers now expect their MSP to own that risk for them. When operations and security run on one foundation, MSPs get the visibility to protect every client and the credibility to guide them into AI. That’s the trust the whole relationship is built on.” — Dor Eisner, CEO and co-founder, Guardz
Nearly 22,000 live cameras with no login required
Mysterium VPN research found 21,786 live camera and recorder feeds exposed on the open internet with no authentication required.
Key findings from the study include:
- A passive scan of more than 3 million internet-reachable cameras found 21,786 live feeds open with zero authentication, with no passwords or known default credentials tested.
- The exposed feeds largely resolve to residential and mobile ISPs, including Verizon, Charter, Comcast, Deutsche Telekom, and NTT DOCOMO, suggesting many are cameras inside homes rather than enterprise environments.
- The exposure is concentrated among budget hardware, with Hikvision-branded cameras open just 0.06% of the time, while budget HiSilicon-class recorders reached 27% and one legacy webcam app reached 46%.
- Japan hosted 19% of open feeds and the U.S. hosted 17%, followed by Mexico, Taiwan, and Germany.
- 9,746 feeds were streaming over RTSP with no access control.
Keeper Security brings privileged access controls to Microsoft Teams with new Keeper Teams App
The Keeper Teams App embeds governed, auditable workflows directly into Microsoft Teams, enforcing zero standing privilege and eliminating credential risk at the moment of access.
Key quote from the press release:
“The weakest point in any access control strategy is the moment a user decides to work around it because the approved process is too cumbersome or slow. By embedding approval workflows directly into Teams, we removed the friction that drives those workarounds, so the secure path and the fast path are one in the same.” — Craig Lurey, CTO and co-founder, Keeper Security
Barracuda SOC Threat Radar — June 2026
The latest Barracuda Research findings highlight LemonDuck malware, GoldBrute botnet activity, and VPN-targeted password spraying attacks.
Key findings from the report include:
- Recent Barracuda Managed XDR incidents show how weak access controls and exposed remote services can attract mass-targeting adversaries and create a path to more severe attacks.
- LemonDuck malware was found affecting multiple endpoints, using PowerShell to download additional malicious code, communicating with command-and-control servers, and setting up persistence through scheduled tasks or Windows Management Instrumentation events.
- A proactive SOC threat hunt uncovered an active GoldBrute botnet infection in a customer network, with the Java-based malware targeting exposed RDP services through brute-force credential attacks.
- Recent threat intelligence has linked operators associated with GoldBrute to ransomware-related activity, increasing the risk that infections could become an initial foothold for additional attacks.
