Report maps cybersecurity trends for 2026
The article promoted a report on how cloud, AI and distributed systems were changing cybersecurity for 2026, and matched ten sections with named vendors and executive quotes.
- The article said cybersecurity was being reshaped by cloud infrastructure, AI, distributed systems and increasingly complex digital environments.
- It divided the report into ten sections, covering identity security, telemetry management, human security, endpoint management, human risk intelligence, exposure management, email and domain security, connected device security, AI-native security operations and cloud security.
- It quoted executives from Keeper Security, Cribl, Automox, Nisos, Surf AI, Adaptive Security, Red Sift, Asimily, SentinelOne and CrowdStrike.
- It ended by directing readers to the full report online.
The article said cybersecurity was changing as cloud infrastructure, AI, distributed systems and larger digital environments expanded. It described a report that looked at how organisations were adapting across ten areas of security.
In identity security, Keeper Security and Darren Guccione said more identities and separate tools were increasing risk. In telemetry and data management, Cribl's Nicole Beckwith said teams should focus on how data was routed and reused, rather than only on collecting more of it.
The endpoint section featured Automox and Justin Talerico, who said patching, configuration management and automated remediation were becoming central. Nisos, Surf AI and Adaptive Security were used to discuss human risk intelligence, exposure management and social-engineering defence, with their executives calling for identity-focused risk work, continuous reduction of exposures and ongoing simulations.
Red Sift, Asimily, SentinelOne and CrowdStrike were used for sections on email and domain security, connected devices, AI-assisted security operations and cloud security. Their executives said impersonation now spread across domains, DNS and certificates, connected devices needed enforced controls, AI could assist investigations, and cloud defences had to cope with identity-driven attacks.
